So its 3 deg celsius outside and I am in a bus on my way back home from college at 6 in the evening. Its winters so it gets dark early and I usually doze off in the 1 hour journey.
But unusually today I chose to stay awake and work on my laptop to finish from where I left!! (Unusual coz a)I avoid carrying my laptop to school b) it rarely is fully charged to work unplugged and c)studying in the bus........uggghhh....).
The next thing I realised after I closed my laptop that I have been on the bus for over an hour now. I went up to the driver and asked if we crossed my stop. He said "20 years ago,ma'am"
(LOL Part-I :D).
I got down at "donno-where"next to "some bridge" to cross the road and wait for the bus from the opposite way to take me back home.
The GPS took 25-30 secs to load and show my location and also kept flashing 7% battery (LOL Part-II).
When it finally loaded it said I was 5 miles away from my place and the next bus was after 16 mins (LOL part-III).
So, there I was...standing all alone on some dark street near a stop (didn't even looked like a stop) which just had a board for 68 metro and with a cell phone with 6% battery charge left in the chilling cold.
Things started flashing in front of me as to how wonderful this semester it has been. All of the stupid decisions, actions, consequences, repercussions have made me such a tough nut(LOL).
A bus arrived and I literally jumped in front of it. The bus driver asked a frantic-me if I was alright and for the first time I said the truth "You know what, I am not."
