So a couple weeks ago whilst on the way to college, me and my mate just happened to get on the most packed bus I've ever been on.
We were stood for near enough the whole journey, hanging for dear life on those weird handle things that swing about whilst the bus was just swerving everywhere. Then more and more people just kept getting on, so everyone was forced to go through the awkward process of piling into each other just to let one person past.
Then it was ok for a while, everyone had managed to acquire there own tiny bit of standing room. And then. Oh and then, to everyone's complete and utter horror, the bus was slowing down, and I could spot a large group of people waiting at a stop. So I thought, the driver can't possibly stop, the bus is too full. But he decides to just pick up the buggers anyway. So now everyone is forced to move down the bus even more, and totally block the gangway.
At this point everyone's literally thinking the same thing: "Not one more person could physically fit on this bus. If the driver stops to try and pick any more people up, he's insane." And so he didn't stop for a while. Until...we stopped off somewhere for someone to get off, and there was about 4 or 5 people ready to get on! Just looking around at peoples grimacing expressions, I could tell everyone had crippling doubts about the chance of them all fitting on. But miraculously, they did! I was actually amazed at how many people had managed to squeeze on to the bus.
Although the standing room was probably way past capacity, and my bag was in someone's face for the whole journey, the bus finally made it to a stop and a bunch of people got off. It was like when you really need a wee, and then you go a bit, like a bit of weight has been lifted off your bladder (Yeah, I'm not thinking of another visual metaphor so deal with it). And then we finally got to Derby City (The toilet), and all the wee, I mean uh people, rushed off successfully, to see another day.
That was the most emotional day of my life...Hah I kid, but seriously, I wanted to just curl up into a ball and shrivel up.
Aaaaanyways, that's all I have to say for now!
Have a great week guys!
Bye!!
