Every driver is different; however, there are three categories that they can be grouped into: the overly cautious driver, the normal driver, and the reckless driver. The overly cautious driver is the first category of vehicle operators and they are known to move…

irritated honking, and a general liveliness on the bus, but there was nothing but silence then. It was almost as if the world knew what was going to happen, and held its breath in anticipation. 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.

So the night afore we had to pack our book bags and pick out habiliments, get yare with lunch and breakfast all that jazz. Mind you, I have never caught the “yellow…

life - the wheels eventually moving. After an hour of shouting, and chaos on the bus we finally arrived. The sign above the entrance towered above the fence - gleaming in the sun, reading “Welcome”.

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…
