Full stop

Let me start by explaining the things I said before like why it costs so much or why it takes so long to get to the train station or bus stop. First and foremost, I will talk about why it takes so long to get to the train station or bus stop. Although the bus and the train take so long to get to the station and the stop, it is not the train operators or the bus driver's fault. The TTC runs on a schedule, the TTC tries to get to the place it's supposed to get on time, which may…

Trimet is the public transportation use of Portland; buses, max(train), and others. Yet no matter which one you go on there is gonna be a crazy person. I mainly use the buses which have the most crazy people I’ve found. The max has many too but it’s more formal. People use the bus when they want to get to a more random area. The maxx carries more people to more dense areas. The bus(good lord). I have many stories and incidents on the bus. I'll tell a few of them. Let’s see once I was at 27th…

up into frames. You have many different types of animation. Usually the main ones used are Traditional animation, Stop animation and Computer Generated animation.

Unaware of my upcoming future, I sat patiently in the back like always, staring out the window with a blank face. I watched the redwoods and buildings blur by, all too familiar with the sight. After a half hour of waiting, the bus finally came to a stop and opened its doors. I stood up, grabbed my backpack, and headed out, somewhat sentimental about the day. This is the last class, huh. I don't know if I should feel excited or sad about it. The past four…

The rising sun cast shadows on the newly blacktopped parking lot. On the outlying edges a fine mist rose from the morning dew dancing with the gentle breeze. It would have made for a breathtaking view had Georgette noticed it. However, this morning her eyes were watching her feet walk as her mind wrestled with reasons for the feeling of apprehension rising like a chokehold from deep within. Arriving at the back of Bus 57 she shook herself like a dog ridding itself of water. Her hand…

I had got use to having the skytrain doors shut in my face. No matter how confused or scared someone looked, no one had the time to stop or help a lost person. The ride back home seemed to be longer than usual and I could not help but notice the nervous group of kids trying to figure out the directions. Looking at them reminded me of the time when I first used the skytrain without any adult supervision. I vividly remember the struggle my little cousin and I faced just to get back home. It…

been detailed in many studies. In one such study, professor and researcher Dick de Waard conducted an experiment on bicyclists’ reaction time while listening to music with earbuds and while not listening to music at all. He found that 68% of auditory stop signals were unnoticed by the bicyclists that were listening to the music. He concluded that “listening to music [while wearing earbuds] worsens auditory perception.” From that research, we can infer that it is even more threatening for…

That paper, three paragraphs, nine sentences, on a page of wide ruled paper and about the…

Deeya Patel Bus D1 Students are Consistently Delayed On Tuesday September 26th, Deeya Patel’s bus driver mistakenly took a wrong between 3:15 and 3:30 and ended up on Route 206.
