I’m a frequent bus rider, so there are a LOT of things I see
that maybe I would not have otherwise experienced had I driven a car most
places (some things, however are outside, anyway, so if you’ve got windows,
there’s no getting away, lol.)
Anyway, I’m pretty much an introvert, unless I’m with good
friends. I do not like to socialize with strange people on the bus.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of strange people on the bus. There are also
smelly people.
I can understand that sometimes people are rushed out of the
house with not even time to get dressed properly, but there’s such a thing as
making time. I don’t have any children to get ready for pre-school or anything,
so it really doesn’t matter what time I get up so long as I’m on the bus with
ample time to dink around before school, and my clothes don’t matter because a
of all) I’m not walking out like absolute trash, and b of all) I don’t actually
have to look “professional”. (Being a bus rider, I’m not the only one who doesn’t,
of course).
So, anyway, my most recent pet peeve was when I got onto the
bus after a late lunch, and all of my bags/whatnots are comfortably adjusted. I
begin reading, and am in my “comfy zone” which also happens to be the “do not
interrupt!
" zone.
Well, anyway, there I am, peacefully reading, minding my own
business (and pretty much the only one on the bus), when this guy, obviously
trying to start conversation says to me “you’re ready for winter, huh?” A of
all) yes, it was cold when I left the house, and unless it’s uncomfortably hot
for most people, I’m completely fine in a hoodie, this one was fur lined (fake
fur, of course, ‘cuz it’s aeropostale), and b of all) I was wearing my bearclaw
boots ‘cuz well, see above, it was COLD when I left the house, and to me, it
was still cold outside. However, this is not “winter ready” to me.
I ignored him.
Did I ask him to interact with me? Obviously not. Was I the
only one “ready for winter”, not that I observed. And in my opinion, I was not,
in fact, ready for winter. I was ready for it to be 46 degrees outside when I
left the house. And knowing that I was coming back late, it would again be cold
once it got dark. Did I owe this freak any explanation? No. Am I being mean by
calling him a freak? Yes. I just think that if someone is reading, they have
every right to do so in peace. Of course, I'd get arrested if I verbalized my thoughts in these instances,
I also hate when people try and talk to me when I’m wearing
my headphones because 99%of the time, my music is on, and I can’t hear them
anyway, I generally don’t know the answer to their question, and I’m again not
interested in communicating with anyone when all I want to do is listen to my
kpop. WHY is that so much to ask?
I don’t interrupt other people’s days uneccesarily.
I’m an introvert, I like to be left alone when I’m going
about my business. Why is that so hard for others to comprehend?

I know, I’m being dramatic. Do I care, obviously not, since
I just ranted about it.
