10i) This week I had a really interesting experience with the city buses, and by interesting I don’t mean fun or exciting, I mean scary and desperate. Brianna and I had a completely different idea about how the bus systems work, and let’s say, it didn’t end very well for us.
One of the involvement tasks is to take the city buses downtown, and that was not our goal, BUT, we ended up downtown! We figured if we got on a bus it would eventually take us to Hamden where The Edge is. We had no clue that there were different routes and times that the buses came. Unfortunately, we learned the hard way.
We left at 4:30 pm and expected to be back around 6:30 pm, but did not arrive back until 9:30 pm. We ended up in a really dangerous part of New Haven, more than once, and encountered MANY creepy people on our wonderful journey.
Hopefully, my parents do not see this blog or my dad would be extremely mad!! They always make sure to tell me to be careful because I’m from a small town, Monroe, where nothing goes wrong and New Haven is a complete 180 from Monroe.
It was an experience though and college is the time to learn new things. Now I know to check bus routes whenever I plan on making a trip! That’s if, I ever decide to use public transportation again....
