i usually keep my eyes resolutely shut in the mornings while on the bus to school. this has quite a few advantages;
a) my brain gets a chance to properly wake up to face my high-energy, low-patience pupils,
b) helps fend off unsolicited conversation,
c) it saves me a lot of queasy moments.

i made an exception one day the last month and mentally kicked myself for semi-sleeping all these summer months away. the road on either side was set aflame by rows of

gulmohars bursting into riotous flame, wherever one looked.

heaven in a wildflower...
