Public transport: the subway.

I bet I've missed the metro in almost all possible ways. The benefit, about travelling with public transport is that you've always got an excuse at school if you're too late. Well, in my first three years. They've changed everything... I love the good old times. You could always say: the train delayed, the bus was late, the metro exploded O.o Okay, the last one is nonsense, but you've got my point, do you?

Here are my metro experiences, are you ready?

*BOOM*

1. I'm a big fan of sleeping and I don't like mornings. I don't have a clue why 7 am exists. Or 8 am. 9 am. 9.30. One time I went to sleep at 3.30 am, just like my sister. She woke up at 11 and me? ten to half past 2 pm. Convinced?:P
In my last post, I already said I wake up too late and as result I have to run to the metro station. I know, maybe it's better to wake up earlier and take some breakfast, but that's a no-go. I can learn and eat at the same time, but I can't sleep and eat at the same time. Bad habit, I know. I've got an whole food package in my locker at school, just in case I'm hungry :)
If I'm the first hour free, I always make a schedule. For example:


School 9.45
Bus: 9.09
Metro: 8.45 or 8.52



I always try to take the metro at 8.45, but I often miss that one. Not really a problem, I can take the second metro. Well, Imagine this.
After I finished dressing up, and left my home all excited, because I was confident that I was going to be right on time for the metro, I chose a song on my mp3 player and walked very relaxed. After I had chosen my song, and looked up I saw my metro passing by. My head followed the train from left to right and I thought, damn, I'm have to take this one! I can make it, I'm going to make it, yeah! I grabbed my OV-card, opened the gate and ran upstairs. A few seconds before I arrived up there, I heard *ding dong* and it left without me. I felt ditched. It's so, so painful. And you know, it was like the metro was laughing at me. The *ding dong* was so loud, a sound what said: Muahaha, see you later alligator! Bitch.

2. Ooh, this I my favorite story xD C. is so going to hate me, after I published this xD
It was a special holiday at our school, and everyone finished school at the same time. We were with a lot of people, but we managed to find a place in the bus. Behind us, there a guy, named M. In my bag, I had the time schedule of the subway. C. asked me what time the metro was going to leave and I said: We've got... two minutes.
She said: What? We have to run, the metro is going to leave!
I said: Nah, I'm not in the mood to run, go without me.
M. behind us asked C.: Is the metro really going to leave?
She said yes, and the moment the bus stopped, they all jumped outside and raced to get the metro. The reason for me, not to run, is because I was for sure that they were going to miss the metro. And I didn't wanted to hear that awful *ding dong*. That's metro language for: Ha, in your face! I'm leaving, muahaha.
So I was walking, all relaxed towards the metro, while C. and the rest were already in the metro. And guess what, I made it O.o I was on the escalator, when I saw that the metro was still standing there. I went inside, and after five seconds , we heard the *ding dong* and we left.
I was laughing my ass off xD
C. said to me, open-eyed: Omg, you made it! Without running O.o

After I finished laughing, and crying thanks to the laughing I said: Hahaha, you ran like someone was going to kill you, haha. And I walked like I've got all the time of the world and still I made it xD
Everybody there was exhausted, thanks to the running because of me. I felt so proud.
And the guy, M. looked furious, because C. made him run for nothing xD
Good old times! (L)

3. The escalator at a metro station is defect, for almost a year. Ridiculous, I tell you. Why would it take a year to fix a escalator? Nonsense, I'm sick of it. I sent them an e-mail and they said: We don't know when we're going to fix it.
Dumb asses. After a tough school day, I don't want to walk 23423849839 steps upstairs. I just want a normal escalator, which brings me upstairs, so I can take my metro. Grmbl. You can put the blame on two parties. One of them, is GVB, the company who doesn't fix the escalator. The other one, is school. All the teachers think their class is the most important, so we have to do all the homework. If you've got, let;s say ten classes, you've got a lot of homework. A lot. Including a lot of books. A lot. A lot of homework + a lot of books= a heavy bag.
However, somebody taped a sign on the escalator which says: This escalator will be repaired, from ... till unknown.
Someone, who was sick of the broken escalator wrote "not" on the sign xD
Brilliant, the guy is brilliant! And it was funny. You know, because it haven't been fixed for ages, and he wrote not, so it's funny. It's just funny, okay :P See my amazing paint-creation.
Oh, I just realized, I HOPE that the one who wrote is, was sick of it. What if it was someone who knows that they'll never fix it O.o That can't me possible, right? I mean, if they are planning not the fix it, they might as well change it in to a gigantic slide (a). I'm just going to stalk GVB: We want the new escalator!
So K. and I showed C. the sign, because we found it funny (and it is!:P) We were standing downstairs, making jokes about it. After a while, we thought that it was time to go upstairs. We went 4549503495 steps upstairs and when we arrived, what a surprise *ding dong*, he left :)
How do we do that!

You know, I've noticed that almost every time I miss the bus/metro/train, it's with C. xD

That's all folks! x
