My last moonbeam in the Mumbai series is about my daily bus-ride from Khar to my college..Mithibai College in Vile Parle.From 1985 to 1987 it was two years of Junior college and 1987-'88 FYBSc....so three years of the same bus route!! Standing at the bus stop near my home at Union Park was so relaxing...so many students -some chitchatting, some listening to their walkman, swaying in time to the beat. Next stop- Santacruz where my dearest friends Maetri and Mahevash got on.I generally tried to catch a seat on the left side to be able to look at the helicopters taking off and landing at the Juhu Aerodrome on S.V.Road. To the right just a little beyond was Nanavati Hospital where I was born!!! My heart still leaps for joy at the thought of walking down from the bus-stop to my beloved college ----- with its bustling corridors,well-equipped labs,great faculty (My combination of subjects-PCMB) and its fun-filled atmosphere of all sorts of DAYS: Rose day,message day,tie and scarf day and many more!!
