Riding the Bus to School

Growing up I rode the bus too and from school everyday. It was a forty-five minute trip in the mornings. You can imagine how long that is when you are a kid. Back then there was not any video games available. On the bus there was just music and thoughts. Doing homework on the bus always made me sick that was out of the question. For those forty-five minutes I was able to jam out to my favorite music and plan out the rest of my life. The other kids on the bus were never too social in the morning because they were still waking up from sleep.

My bus driver was a grumpy lady who put off like she did not like her job. Later I found out that she really did like her job but she had to put on a serious face to keep the kids from misbehaving. It makes sense now. I never acted up on the school bus because I was she seemed so scary. Now that I am older I just don’t get that thinking time like I did then. At the time it was not fun, but the thoughts that were created on that school bus helped form the life that it being lived right now. The school bus rides too and from school is great for kids and builds character. The bus is a safe alternative totransportationfor kids.
