FACT:
I ride the bus to school.
FACT:
I have not been on the bus since school ended.
FACT:
I see very interesting things on the bus.
FACT:
Even more interesting things HAPPEN to me on the bus.
FACT:
Homeless people scare me. (I have been attacked 2 times by homeless men)
These facts combined = not a good thing.
Today I was going home. I sat down and there was a homeless man talking to himself. (totally scared me out of my mind) He was two seats away from me. He started telling some interesting things.
1. He just recently got robbed (his Bible, Book of Mormon, fishing net, and his nudist magazine were all stolen)
2. He lives on the river. He has lived there for 3 1/2 years.
3. He likes to ride bikes
I could go on for a while about the things I learned from him, but I wont.
I was so uncomfortable. I was just waiting for him to come up and attack me or something.
I started to text Shantel for comfort. I had papers on my lap.
All of the sudden the man across from me starts talking to me.
Man: (smiling creepily) so you already have a science test the first week of class? (referring to the papers on my lap)
me: yeah (how does he know it is a science test? oh what a creeper. How long has he been staring at me?)
Man: that is too bad.
me: yeah (Oh please stop talking to me)
Man: so is it for your major?
Me: yeah
Man: which is?
Me: Clinical lab. science
Man: oh cool. . . .
then he said something and I couldn't hear him.
Instead of asking what he said I just assumed he asked if I liked my major.
(F.Y.I. I hate asking people to repeat themselves)
Me: it is a lot of science but I like it so far.
Man: thats not what I asked.
I felt pretty stupid. So I just stopped talking and pretended that I was texting.
Right when that happened . . . we stopped at THE longest red light ever.
Somehow I survived the next ten minutes.
The bus stopped at my stop and guess who got off with me?
My new bus friends.
Welcome back to Utah's public transportation.
