Das Bus

Sit down, won't you, and listen to my adventures on the bus...


Thursday: Well, it happened again. I took the wrong bus. I was hurrying to meet someone (see below), so I took what I thought was a bus to El Monte Station ("487 El Monte"). When it started going up a ramp instead of going straight to the station I got a little worried so I got off at the first stop. I couldn't tell you where I was (I would have taken pics but my camera only had one bar of power left), but I did pass a 99 Ranch Market and a Petrillo's Pizza. Then I walked all the way to Walnut Grove (!)... and then I caught one of those 24-hour buses to the station (near some "K" convenience store). That was probably an hour and a half of wandering around aimlessly (...at night), the same day I happened to jump rope in the morning for about 15 minutes. Now if that bus was going to El Monte Station after all (taking an extremely long, confusing, indirect way)... wouldn't that be funny! HAHAHA... fuck.


Tuesday: This happened, which inspired me to finally make the full page, although only #6 and #7 are up. (I really need to figure out a way to update all my pages to link to my "Things I Hate" page on the side without going through each page to add it manually AND without using frames...)


Last Thursday: On Tuesdays and Thursdays when I'd take the bus from El Monte Station to some place near my house (267 Altadena & N. Lake), I'd see this girl who I somehow remembered from my PCC days, where we both took the same bus. But last Thursday she took the same bus from El Monte Station to Cal State LA, so after much internal debating, I finally decided to OMG talk to her and yes, she is the same girl. She said she remembered me (I'm not sure if it was from this quarter or from PCC, but I'll take that as a good sign anyway...), and now we both know each other's names and majors. After saying to her that I'll "see you tonight" (which felt surreal just saying that), I was stuck in the library having some papers photocopied due to the stupid school not having the books and cheap enough not to make enough copies for everyone, so I missed the bus. Tuesday I was there but she wasn't, and next Thursday... see above.

Okay, so it's not quite along the lines of a certain someone's Steven / Nelson episodes, but it's amusing nonetheless, and here too timing has messed everything up.


(note: I titled this entry "Das Bus" as a parody of the classic "Das Boot," but it turns out there reallyis a movie titled "Das Bus." Time to get my brother to Netflix it.)
