stupid public transport
I've had to wait for two delayed trains since getting back from Japan. Now. Big whoop. This wouldn't usually annoy me, except for two facts: (a) while I was away, fares were raised (by, what. 10%?); and (b) since getting back, I've only caught the fsking train three times.

Congratulations, Connex. You SUCK.

That aside, today was good; uni starts on Monday; lalala etc. :3 ♥

xD *snugs* ♥ Hopefully it wasn't a late train, at least?

YEAH. o_O What the hell. I just got my concession card back for uni, and like. x___x Even the concession 2h tickets went up 30cents. What the hell. D: *thanks god she is not old and living off a pension* 8DD; Scape goats are always good... xD;;

*petpets* :D;;; That's seriously not cool. I'm glad... well. I bus four days and train maybe one or two, overlapping. So it's not so bad. xD;;

Booo Connex. :( Though it's a lot better than V-Line. I remember getting on one when I first attempted public transport since I had no idea which train I was supposed to get. LUCKILY I DID NOT GET TAKEN ALL THE WAY OUT OF THE COUNTRY? :\? It ate my clothes though. :(

Uni~ :D

O___O well, even though I am not in Australia, the fares of trains and public transportation have gotten a little intense... It is costing me around $12 each day to get to school and back...

$12 a day? o_____O; That is just nuts. I hope you have a student concession or something-?

Nope! And the sad thing is that I am using the student fare more than the adult fare... ;___;

Doesn't riding public transportation after being in Japan for so long suck? XD; I miss the buses and trains that were always on time no matter what.

When, and where will you be?

You know, they only come in handy when they're delayed and you should technically have missed the train :D

(also: that is true. 8D;; it is terrible when you're running for it and count on the bus being late for you to make it on time; i imagine trains don't quite work the same, but yeah. xD; handy on the odd occasion...)

D: Fare hikes are evil. They should be outlawed!! Along with late trains. :x Hopefully as your number of trials rises, the statistics will get better?

They should! :O A concession ticket went up from $1.30 to $1.60. :[ I mean, hike sure. But +20% is a big hike. T__T; (Hopefully they will~ xD It's true that the statistics are probably skewed by bad timing, at the moment. ♥)

Ouch. D: Yeah, that is a big hike! Boo on them! (XD Well, hopefully they'll get better then, as you move up the side of the bell curve. :D;;;)
