A new day everyday !!!

Been over a month since I started my new job, and life has been so different all these days, like I posted in my last blog, (well I try to come back to write atleast once a month, though I would love to write more, its the same lame excuse) same routine; work's not hectic at work, but time consuming, and I still hate this interstate driving, and guess I'll keep cribbing about it... Traffic is certainly getting bad in Tampa and the rest of the nation

I was reading an article this morning on msnbc on Smart Cars; whether the Smart cars were a dumb idea to introduce in this "fat nation" where BIG is Better !!! This 8.5 feet x 5.5 feet cutie comes in handy to make those swerves and turns and move fast with over 40 mpg, but will the SUV loving nation prefer her? ( I've done a lot of research as part of my project at school, and have seen that the love for SUV is taking a toll on this nation, in every aspect.)

Well, here's a glance at our beauty, meanwhile I have some tips...

In this regard, I have some small tips for interstate work commute, I've been making more than 50 trips now, and guess I have the experience to share what I feel:

1. Never expect the same day everyday - Initially I tried leaving home around the same time everyday and never felt that the traffic was the same, yes its never predictable
2. Prepare to listen to some music in the morning, and if you are someone like me, who's just out of the bed, dont sleep off, so take some fast numbers
3. Take a book or even a newspaper additionally, incase of worst back up... lol
4. Never go to the leftmost lane- Though the left lane can be faster and help you drive for a longer distance, it doesnt work in the mornings
5. Never let anyone overtake you, or even speed ahead of you, coz no one lets me in before him.. Its not about aggressiveness, but about ethics which you almost forget on the road, during the peak hours
6. People are rude, so be prepared for that- I wasnt initially and used to feel bad
7. Experience a new day everyday and enjoy the ride :)
