I don't know whether to laugh or cry. · 3:29pm Feb 18th, 2013
Today I did not know whether I wanted to Celebrate or break down in tears of anguish...
I got up at 8 am (usually I sleep in to 2 PM due to my fucked up sleeping patterns), had a shower, breakfast, even took the time to change my avatar back to normal. Anyway I sigh and trudge off to college, the 3 mile walk takes just under an hour. Now normally I'd just walk half a mile to jump the trains without paying (like every other day), but ever since i got chased by the police after bailing from a ticket inspector (luckily both were overweight middle-aged men, I think the cop was a voluntary metropolitan officer) I've been somewhat hesitant to jump the metro... and like hell am I paying 3.50 just to get to college, they can fuck off. (yes this is how much it costs just fro a single day ticket, cunts).
Anyway I get to college fairly worn out, I just had a week off and I was kind of dreading going back. The college was empty, it was half term... I walked all that way for nothing. Didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Can you not buy a month ticket?
...I myself live only 10min from school, thank god.

Nope, that would be to convenient for the customer you see, the metro service wants to bleed you dry.
They keep raising their prices because nobody is paying, yet nobody pays because it's too fucking expensive. I think I own them over £100 in metro fair so far.
842912 Do you guys not have buses over here?
That really sucks. I'd buy you a pint, if I could. (Or an over-sized cookie, if that was your preference. (Or a package of bacon. (Bacon makes everything better.)))
Is riding a bicycle an option? It would still suck, but considerably less than walking.

Buses are also too expensive, I refuse to be ripped off.

Good idea actually, paradoxically i am too lazy top get it out of the garage, yet also too lazy to walk to school. But the bicycle thing is more short term so I end up skipping that.
843008 ...If I had bicycle here, I would use it...
And I am like 4 times closer.
