Able to go to College - Episode 14 : Bus Basics
So this weeks episode is all about taking the bus. One of the hardest things about leaving high school for me was a fear of taking the bus. I thought I was not ready to take pubic transit and I was not too trilled about taking para transit. I eventually got on the bus and have not looked back sense. At this time I do not drive so taking the bus is my token to independence when my parents or siblings are not home.
Speaking about tokens
Around here there are a lot of different options for paying a fair. You can pay two dollars a trip, in cash or coins. You can use a token, which you can see in the video, or you could use a card that acts like a credit card. I use tokens to take the bus, they are quick and easy or when I can not find them I use dollars.
Thanks Ms. Parks
Thanks to Rosa Parks I can sit anywhere on the bus. That is true but for some reason the bus's disability seats, which i sometimes sit in but not always, are in the front. The first day of university I met a guy with Spina Bifida on the bus who just happend to be a big Nintendo fan. We have been pals ever since
