Almost everyday I take bus to somewhere,and the most frequent one would be bus 69 of course, as I take it to school. Every morning there are so many people taking public transport, we have to go to school, the adults have to go to work, so the bus(whatever bus number you take) is usually pack with students in poorly designed uniforms and people going to work..and other bus takers...so getting your ass in the bus can sometimes be quite a handful..(Agree so far?)....But the truth is that most buses,(especially bus 69) are only about 70%-80% full which means there is more space lah..But there are just some inconsiderate people on this planet that just refuse to move to the rear, causing the bus to seem full..and making people unable to board the bus. Just imagine, you board the bus, all the seats are taken, so you stand..and..let's say you walk to the exit door and stand there, and from then on, you are like a stopper, everyone else who boards the bus and cant find a seat will stand next to you, and it keeps pilling up until the entrance. And just imagine there are these students, rushing to school, almost late already, but at the entrance it is full already, and they can't board the bus, causing them to be late for school. And they were late and punished because of you, you stopped at the exit door, and didn't move your butt to the rear and the other people in our generation also don't bother much,so just stand there...so actually there is still space at the back of the bus, maybe say, able to fit another 5,6 people? or even more? So because of your inconsideration,people that are rushing to school or to work cant board the bus and are late because of you..don't you think it is unfair? Maybe you disagree with me and say not all people are like that....Okay, now imagine you, being the one rushing to school, hoping not to be late, but when the bus comes, its "full".. And you can't board it because a certain guy doesn't want to move and causing you to be late..Now if you are in that situation..won't you feel its unfair? You are in such a big rush and then when you see the bus, you are delighted cos you know you will be on time, but then your moment of joy is crushed because the bus is "full"..but when you see the bus drive past, you realise that there is space at the back..and then you will get so pissed....right?? Unfair right...Of course not everytime its like that..but..ya..you get my drift.. There is this real life story that inspires me and of course made me post about this topic today... Everyday I take 69 to school...and when the bus reaches my stop, the bus is about "half-full" and the people at my stop will fill the bus almost to the brim..leaving space for maybe another 3,4 people...(But of course there is space at the back of the bus).. Then the bus stop after my stop..there is always this couple..I think about 40+ years old..They also board 69 everyday, I see them very frequently, they are really the people I respect. When they board the bus, the first thing they will do is move to the back of the bus, no matter how pack the bus may seem to be, there's always this small little path to walk ( in the new bus, the one will wheelchair space...)..and they will just push their way through this inconsiderate generation ( of course including me), just to make space.. I mean, if this two people can move to the back and create space, and the lady being a little bigger then average size, why can't we do it? We are younger, we are more agile, we are smaller in size, and we are the people responsible for making the bus seem full...If these two 40+ years old people can do it...why can't we? We are say...13-18 years old? And this two can do it while we can't? (Or should I say don't want)...We should be ashamed of ourselves.. We are so much more agile and can do much more than them..but we just choose to stay at the comfortable spot we are standing at..and just stay there..causing the bus to be "full"...Of course I'm part of the group of people that don't want to move because its already so packed..but this couple really inspires me, so I, together with them will move to the rear of the bus, because if you think about it, you wouldn't want to be the one at the entrance, wanting to board the bus so badly but you can't because people don't want to move..(I hoped I have made some sense..) So think about this story for a sec, this 40+ year old couple can move to the back..now why can't we?.so everytime you take the bus, move your behind, behind...Be more considerate, trust me, you wouldn't want to be the one to lose out at the end..So yah..I hoped I have knocked some sense into your brain...haha,well..so has this post been a boring one or rather interesting one? Haha..tag your comments yah, I know this is pretty lenghty..but ya, appreciate it..you know why? Cos I wrote it..hahaha....................................Actually, today I got no jokes leh..but if you want one, just look in the mirror..........HA! |
