After a long and stressful day of school I’m finally rewarded with a bus ride. A long one in fact. One hour of napping is the reward I had been waiting for. But even though it’s a good time for a nap, people are unfortunately loud. However, that doesn't stop me from having a good hour rest, it’s been a long day anyway. And thankfully, other than the long bus ride the weekend is also here. And the next two days will be a breeze, no school is the life. The bus ride during the afternoon, other than being loud, is usually warm especially during the summer. I have a decent bus driver because he hollers at the loud stalk giving people like me who try to sleep a considerate gesture. I usually keep quiet on the bus because I don’t really talk that …show more content…
During the fall, especially here in Maine, this is normal. It’s also normal to have a pretty warm summer in Maine as well. And that is what happened during our last summer vacation. I actually think that we had a record high for Maine this year, 106 degrees fahrenheit I believe. Anyways, it’s about 3:30 PM. Me and Matt just started to walk down to his house, we did that usually instead of going to mine because it’s just a shorter walk. Plus, my parents aren't home and Matt provides good company. During the walk I think of why we must go to school.
“Hey Matt why do you think we go to school,” I ask. He Didn’t really respond partially because he didn’t know and partially because he didn’t want to know. But even though he didn’t answer, I still asked myself. The truth is probably that school isn’t important to either of us and that I didn’t care for my post-secondary education just yet. Should I care about school or is it something in my life that just bothers me?
During the walk we saw Matt’s Mom driving to go to her daily activities and it makes me wonder what are my priorities? The truth is that I really don’t know. I am just a sophomore in highschool and responsibility is something I don’t typically worry about. Maybe when i’m an adult my life will be figured out but now it’s
Another thing about the busses being later is that the bus drivers wouldn’t be so cranky. Bus drivers are sometimes tired and cranky in the morning. One other thing we have to worry about in the morning is it being dark. It generally makes people tired when it's dark outside. It’s not fun when students go to school
The inefficient public transit further induce students into the stress of school and lack of sleep (Kelly, 1973). On average, Ryerson students commute from 2 to 4 hours a day. This time that could be spent resting, studying or doing other activities is then spent in a congested space. This also does not account for the delays and traffic that occur within the various transportation companies ranging
I along with my family moved to Canada in 2004, this was the biggest and happiest day of my life. I had great expectations for my future; since living in Pakistan, I understood that Canada was a land of opportunity. Unfortunately, due to the earthquake in Pakistan on October 8th , 2005, we had to move back to Pakistan since we had lost members of our family as well. The move back to Pakistan at that devastating time was very hard for myself and my family. My father enrolled me to a school in Pakistan since we were going to live there now.
Jimmiela Bruessard 9th Honors Mrs.Smith Tonight? I stared into the dark sky, taking a deep breath. “Tonight...tonight.”
The first day of middle school is also the first day I have ever rode the bus. I don 't really like riding the bus because it 's loud, the bus smells weird, and it 's way too crowded. OI got lost the first time trying to find my bus. I walked around for like five minutes trying to find bus number nine. Luckily my friend Mackenzie told me which bus to ride that would take me to the same place.
Ti loved it when we would be walking downtown to get something to eat with other gamblers and we would come across a sidewalk vendor with a fruit stand. Ti would bet he could throw an orange on top of a three-story building, somewhat of a gamble, so to take some of the gamble out of the bet Ti would have the gamblers stand a short distance away from the fruit cart. When Ti went over to the fruit cart, he would stand in front of the oranges and you could see him pick up a few and feel them, trying to pick just the right orange. That’s when I would try to get their attention by flashing my money and asking who would like to bet what. Now, when I saw Ti standing sideways to the fruit cart, I knew he was ready, so I would take off one of my alligator shoes, put it on the sidewalk, and put all the bet money under it to keep it from blowing away.
It was a cold winter day a few days after my birthday. We were packing stuff into brown boxes and Doritos boxes and some direct t.v boxes because we were moving. I was packing tons of toys in boxes. I was packing stuff in garbage bags and boxes to put in a garage sale.
It is 4:00am in the morning, and life begins anew in my household. Clothes are being laid out and breakfast is being cooked. The sounds of the morning begin to take shape. The coffee maker eschews the splendid flavors of coffee which engulfs the small apartment. These early mornings are followed by late nights.
Yesterday I spent my time freaking out trying to get everyone to turn in their signed field trip forms. It’s my big day and I still have some stressing to do because I need to get someone to turn in their form. I ask my mom to drive me to school today, I don’t want to risk coming late because of my bus driver. The ride to school is a blur, all I care about is getting to school, screw the small talk.
It was a normal day. I woke up at 6:07AM for the first day at school. I ate,got dressed,and went to the restroom. I had my backpack and bags full of other supplies I couldn’t fit in my backpack. I got in the car and was watching a video while I was in the car.
It was a nice hot summer day in Denver, Colorado. Was on my way to my friend Lula’s house, haven’t seen her in a few years. We went to elementary school together and we were in student council together. I slowly got out of the leather seat in my mom's white car. “Bye mom, I love you.
But, that was only a thought. I went to the bus stop as usual and waited. There were very few people on the bus. Definitely much fewer than I had expected. The bus finally came, and even the normal bus driver stayed home.
My family and I were all going to the Rockies game. There was actually a lot of us who had went, First it was my brother, sister, mom, grandma, grandpa, my three cousins, and my friend, my sister’s friend, plus my brothers friend. The day was going to be exciting. I went with my mom to go pick up my friend, while the rest of the family went to the Rockies game and went to get some food. Sometime later me, my friend, and my mom all arrive at the Rockies game.
Hesitantly, I dip my finger into my steaming cup and stir its swirling contents inside with mild disgust, its strong earthy aroma wafting up my running nose. Now with the cup cradled in between my two thawing hands, I cautiously take a sip. With my head tilted back and my lips, chapped from the frigid winter air, embracing the curled chewed lip of the cup, a trickle of scalding bitter liquid cascades down my throat. Snow-encrusted lashes brush the top of my frost nipped cheeks as I press my eyes firmly shut to visualize the dark oozing coffee empty from the cup and into the depths of my body that is at its mercy, so desperate for its soothing warmth. A crescendo of voices, a symphony of small talk; rising up, the accelerando of chatter fights
After this situation, I know that if people want to get off, then just pull a yellow wire inside the compartment so that the driver will stop at the next stop, which means the bus won't be stopped without
