The Train vs. The Bus
My usual school commute (M-F, no breaks here!) involves a bike ride to the train station and a quick ride on the train. Thank goodness for no traffic on that puppy! Anywho, I take the bus on rainy days and have also gone on these past two days and I noticed that the bus and the train take on two breeds of commuters. Train commuters take it to be more efficient and Earth-friendly, everyone is also reading or doing something constructive. While bus riders do exactly that, they ride the bus and for the most part are rude people or weirdos. But, I guess this does not apply to Muni commuters, just the VTA and SamTrans bus riders who are the weirdest bunch ever.

The Mall...
I went for Round 2 today and I thought I was done until Jon came over and I showed him Kendel's gift, a book on the mechanics of a car - nerdy I know. Apparently, the book was missing a part on the car that is suppose to show something that I have no idea what for. So, I need to return that and exchange it but with Jon in tow for him to explain.

I also went inside the Kate Spade shop that opened up and it is too cute. I love everything inside of it. She could be the next young "Martha" minus the cooking mess. But I went in there to try on the Maddie bag (see picture). I am in love with it. I know, ya-ya I am always in love with a bag, but with all of my other ones sold off I have less of a variety. Sad, I know. But, I will save up to buy this bag.

The Neighbors
She is old, loud and has no teeth. She also has the tendency to say "Hello!" through my window while I am doing something in my apt, scaring me in the process. Good grief, I can't even open up my own windows. Plus, she loves to get up at 2:00 a.m. to watch t.v. in bed! It is soooo loud! I have no idea why she does that. And it doesn't help that we share a very thin wall where we both can hear everything, even when she talks in her sleep or watches those damn sex hotline infomercials.

Oh and she's the one who has been stealing my NY Times! So, I wrote a note and plastered it on the mailbox bullentin board for the entire complex to see. I even told her that she owed me $18.00 for all the freaking newspapers she steals. The weird part is that she doesn't even read them! She takes them out of the plastic bag that has my name on it and puts that in the trash along with the paper! Weirdo, at least recycle the bin is a few feet away. So, my nasty note put her sad, old ass in check.

My neigbor who lives right below me is super duper loud. He gets home late at night and makes the loudest noise getting into his apt. So loud that I think I'm getting robbed by the clumsiest robbers. I don't think he's got the placement of his apartment right since his recent move cause I hear things get knocked over as he trips over them...every single night. Plus, he slams his door shut. It't like dude, the whole complex is asleep.
