Bad Experiences on the Bus

Everyone had different experiences at different places. This experience might be good or bad; it might happen at the park, in a classroom, in a convenience store or on the street. What about on the bus? When something bad happened on the bus, I think there are three terrible circumstances.

It is terrible if the bus is full of people. I have one experience of it. One day I was going to take a bus to go home. The bus that came was packed with people. Actually, I had already waited for a long time, so I decided to take this bus. As I got on the bus, I regretted it immediately. Because the bus was crowded of people, I had nothing to hold on to firmly. I stretched my hand as far as I could, but I could only hold the handrail with the front part of my fingers. It’s so terrible that when the bus driver made a turn, I was about to fall and I felt my hand was to be separated from my body. That’s why I think a crowed bus is terrible.

Another terrible thing is that the bus driver drives very fast. I also had one experience of it. Once I was on my way home, sitting on the seat, the bus driver drove very fast and that made me nervous. The bus driver didn’t even reduce the speed as he made a turn. It terrified me a lot because it made me feel the bus would turn over at that moment. And I was sure that I heard the sound which was made by the friction of the bus and the road.

Still another, it was the most horrible thing if you encounter a strange person on the bus. I will never forget that day when my friend and I met one pervert on the bus on our way home. A strange guy got on the bus. In about two minutes, the bus was full of people. My friend and I didn’t sit far from him. He’s very strange because he shouted out loud with lots of dirty words as he got on the bus. After that, he picked up a bag of betel nuts and took one to eat. Next moment, he spewed the juice on the floor of the bus. I didn’t know whether those two girls who sat in front of us had offended him or not, because he took the residue out of his mouth and threw it upon the window which was close to those two girls. Then, he shouted at them with dirty words. My friend and I were so shocked that we didn’t dare to move and speak anymore; we just hoped that we could arrive as soon as possible. It was really a terrible torment at that time, and I knew that I would never forget this horrible experience.

On the bus some bad things might happen, just like too many people on the people, the bus driver’s driving too fast, and the horrible experience of meeting some strange person on the bus. They are so terrible and impressive, especially the last experience, and I hope that I will never go through it again.
