Saturday: The Greyhound

Longer distance bus travel usually gives some pretty good opportunities for talking to strangers.

Stranger: Lady with Cool Accent

POINTS:
Greyhound Station... guess it’s kind of the same as a bus stop… 15 points
Initiated conversation: 10 points
Length—over five minutes, less than 15: 10 points
Comfort zone: 2 points

What I learned: There really IS a point to university education! But it’s still mostly a piece of paper.

I have considered subtracting points for not talking to the guy sitting beside me actually on the bus. BUT I’m not going to. I was just bitter because we were pretty much the only two people on the bus who didn’t get their own seats and weren’t sitting with someone they knew… (and I was there FIRST!).

(Let there be no confusion… I am a selfish brat :D ).
