I strapped myself into the gray seat, threw my backpack onto the window seat and said,
"I hope nobody takes the seat next to me." I like having a seat for my stuff. Nobody did. I pulled out My Pearls book and began to tune out the mindless banter, but occasionally I would hear something funny and laugh inwardly. That's why I always try to be on the fun bus, because if I were to forget entertainment, I would have entertainment in my friends. On our fall trip, the hour and a half that I spent on the boring bus felt like the longest of my life. I shift the shoulder pads so that they are out of my way and I lean forward to converse, weird 80's music the way-too-loud soundtrack of my life right now.
