I don't mean to be mean...

So i don't know if any of you have to ride the bus...but i do. There are reasons for liking the bus, and reasons for hating it with my every fiber. Here are some of the wonderful examples of the bus.....

1. You are running about 1 minute late and you are literally running towards the bus to catch it, and the bus driver sees you, but that 1 minute is too little too late. He drives off without you. Cause you know...once he saves one he has to save them all.

2. You get to the bus on time, but you just made it...however, there is no sitting room and you must brace yourself and stand in the middle. There are a few problems with standing in the middle.

A. if the bus is really crowded, you are literally spooning the person in front of you.
B. If there is a new bus driver, they don't really know how to stop and start with ease...so you are ramming your face into the backpack in front of you because everyone is taller than you are, so you have to be careful and wear a mouth guard.
C. If you have the young bus driver, he either likes to take is sweet time on his cell phone and make everyone five minutes late for class, or he likes to smoke his cigarette as if he has all the time in the world.

3. Sometimes you get stuck next to a larger person...and this might sound mean, but its more just awkward. So you see that the only seat left open is the one next to the large and in charge man (we'll call him Ezra)... and you bring yourself to sit down to his nasty sweaty body. So you sit, but its awkward because half of their leg, is sitting on half of your seat (mainly because they can't fit). So your butt starts to fall asleep because you're hanging off the edge.

4. There are train tracks EVERYWHERE and the bus has to stop for them. Note to trains...SPEED UP!

5. When its cold and rainy all day...its no fun to sit out in the bitter cold and wet waiting for the loathed automobile. So you'd rather stab the pen (the only pen you have since you just ran late and had to catch the bus)...

So what have learned about the autobus...? That we hate it, but must plan life around it or walk for thirty minutes....hmmmm
