Public Transportation
My biggest fear in life was Public transportation. I know to most people this would sound like an irrational fear However If you have been through you would think it was completely rational. When I began my first semester at BSU I had to drive 45 minutes from caldwell to Boise. This may not seem like a big deal but to me it was. you see every time I drove I had to fill up my gas Tank and pay ten to twenty dollars a day just for parking. This may not seem much to many but it amounts to about thirty dollars a week. then I found out that all students have access to free bus passes. I decided that I would try the bus. The first day I rode Everything was going great until two creepy guys began hitting on me at one of the bus stops. They even tried to get me to ride with them in their car. Of course I refused and got on the bus. That same day on the way home I had another guy try to take me home with him. I got away from him as soon as possible. The next time I decided to try it again just to make sure It was just a fluke. The second time my bus was late, therefore I was late for my transfer and was stuck in an unfailiar Nampa. I decided third times the charm. If everything didnt run smoothly the third time i would give up and just waste the thirty dollars a week. Today was the third day and yet again I missed the bus and had to have my frustrated mother come get me. I dont know if its just me but it is quite annoying. I dont know what I should do now. Its nice that I dont have to spend three hours on a bus when I could be at home doing homework but its alo nice riding the bus not having to sit in rush hour or pay for parking or gas.
