Bus

There are people in the world who don't have homes, or families who love them. There are people in this world who literally have nothing. But, then you have people who decide that taking the bus is the end of their world. Seriously? If taking the bus is that bad, why don't you walk? What a concept get up off your butt and move, but that is a foreign concept in our country. I walk to and home from school, everyday. When I get to school all day long all I do is listen to people complain that the people on their bus are "weird," or there are to many people on their bus. But the kids who bother me the most are the ones who get rides from their parents so that they don't have to take the bus, and then the say that their parents wouldn't stop and get them something, or that they take "to long" in the morning. What? First of all that barely makes any sense to me. But, would you rather walk? No you wouldn't just want to walk to school, or home. It's cold, and wet, and rainy, some days are terrible and others are great but trust me you do not want to walk to or home from school at all, ever!

I suppose I'm the one who just "doesn't understand" were you are coming from, right? Wrong! I used to ride a bus from kindergarten through sixth grade but, since I live to close to school they took it away from me, when I got into middle school. So don't think I am just making all of these "assumptions" without knowing what it is really like to ride a bus, because trust me I do. I wouldn't say I loved the bus, but I wouldn't say I hated the bus either. It was one of those feelings where it was just a transportation system. Yeah the people weren't the greatest but I didn't complain about it because I didn't have to walk. Which sucks. But, with that said, yes I wasn't fond of the people on my bus, they were quite "weird" but in a good way. Which I am sure is how the people on your bus are, they just aren't like you, they are they're own person like everyone is, and you just have to accept them as who they are. In other words get over yourself you aren't perfect either. 

So the "perfect" people are the ones who think they are to good for the bus so they get a ride from their parents. Which isn't a bad thing, until you start to complain that it takes "forever" to get to school, and they won't stop a pick you up some fancy drink or whatever from Starbucks. Really? You are seriously going to make me listen to your petty complaints at seven in the morning when I just walked through snow to get here? If this is you, please, please, please, get over yourself! You are being driven to school and you don't have to sit on a bus or walk to get to school. Don't complain you didn't get your five star drink that morning. I'm sure you will live, because the last time I checked when you claimed you were going to "die without it" you were still breathing. Oh, but then you want to through in there that your parents take to long to get you to school in the morning, seriously? I'm sure that they are trying their best to get you to school in the morning. My parents feel terrible that I have to walk and told me they would give me a ride if they didn't have to leave at five to get to their own job. So you are lucky in general to either have a parent that can drop you off on their way to work, or that they stay home and it's not even that big of a deal. But, please, don't make me listen to your crazy complaints at seven in the morning.  

So if you are one of these people, don't talk to me. At least not before the sun comes up, and I have just come into school from the cold, because frankly you are not someone who I would love to deal with at that point in time. If your bus brings you to and from school, don't complain about the people on it, it's maybe twenty minutes of your life every day i'm sure you will live. Oh, and if your parents bring you, thank them for not forcing you to take the bus because I'm sure they could tell you that they don't have the time to take you to school, so you would have to take the bus. But, most importantly just get over yourself, you aren't perfect and neither is anyone else. Plus, I am quite positive no one cares about your problems with the bus, because I know we all have our own problems that are much greater than your bus issues.
