Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Have you ever felt... idk, empty? Like, lately, I've just been feeling like a hollow shell.

Life isn't pointless, I know, but it sure does feel like it.

Everything is just so... grey, you know? It's bland.

Today, something happened that's worth sharing. Well, I don't have much to share, so this isn't probably worth the read, but eh. I thought I'd make an entry.

So heading home today, I was walking really slowly. I was just... sad, for no reason at all. When I reached my train station, I had to skip several trains as it was rush hour.

My backpack was super heavy today, too, so that's wasn't very fun. emotion_8c

After finally getting on a train, I rode to my normal destination and got off, as usual.

I boarded the shuttle, then. It was kind of uncomfortable, having a giant backapck and all, but I managed. I ended up sleeping a bit. I woke up in time to transfer from the shuttle to my bus.

I wait...

... and wait...

...and wait, until bus 41 came.

To get home, I can take a variety of buses, bus 41 being the longest route. I didn't care though. I liked bus 41 because I often slept on it.

After handing my bus ticket to the driver, I sat down in my seat.

Like, literally, MY seat. I have a seat that I always sit at. It's the best seat, in my opinion. It doesn't have to be handed over to elders because it isn't right at the front. The front of the bus often shadows the seat, which is pleasant because having sun in your eyes is irritating. I don't know. I really like it.

So anyways, I was sitting in my seat on the bus and I slept, as usual.

Today, however, I woke up to the sound of the bus driver's voice. He was standing kind of in front of me and asking me which stop I got off at.

I looked around and, without surprise, I was the only one left. The bus was heading back to the train station and the bus driver wanted to know where I'd get off.

It was nice of him. He dropped me off at a really convenient location for me without knowing it. And, and, and, because he woke me up, I didn't have to ride a whole bus ride again.

I was dropped off pretty far from home. It was at a McDonalds in my neighbour hood. I was curious if I could make it home. Last time I got off at the McDonalds stop, I got lost and had to wait for my parents to pick me up.

I had an unusual sense of confidence today and I braved going home.

I made it, forty minutes later. I think I matured a bit today, so I'm quite satisfied.

School ended at 3:03pm and I arrived home at 5:28pm. It took a while but I made it! Congrats to me! emotion_kirakira



Today's lyrics are:
Everybody wants a little romance
Everybody's goin' off the deep end
Everybody needs a second chance

Guess the song's title and artist and a reward shall be granted!

Thanks for reading, btw! Until next entry. yum_puddi
