Here’s something new in Jon world.  Another subway story.

As I was taking the subway during crowded rush hour time, the train feels like it’s going in slow motion.  Then finally, my stop , well not really it’s everyone’s stop.  People flowing out of the train like mad water busting through a broken dam.  Up the stairs everyone go!    Trying to fight through the crowd avoiding people trying to get on the train, as I approach the stairway I heard a noise and quickly looked up.  Women A coming down the stairs got her hand-bag caught, accidently, by Women B’s arm going up the stairs.

Women A got furious, she yelled out “Chille out, b****!!  ” follow by more nasty words  as she continued her decent.  No one knew what her problem was that day.  Giggles and laughter came out of the crowd of people.  I laughed and kept on going .

I was waiting for the train one day, standing at the end of the platform for a while.  Boring .  Then I saw a rat on the platform to my right doing its own things, probably looking for food.  So I kept waiting .  Then 5 seconds later a girl to my left shouted “Excuse me!!” .  I turned to her and she quickly pointed in my direction followed by a “LOOK OUT!!”, so I turned to my right  and realize that she’s pointing at the rat making its way towards me.  So I was like , its a freaking tiny little rat, probably more afraid of me than I am to it.  But I politely turned towards the girl, gave her a smile and noded in acknowledgement that I saw it.

Sigh…….

Just received the packages that I FedEx myself from Chicago.  Then I noticed on one of them have a huge gash on the side of the box and someone taped it back together.  My gosh…. good thing the box is mostly clothes if it was something fragile, it would be crushed.  The rest of the boxes seem to come in worse condition than I sent them.  I wonder what ever goes on in those shipping facilities.

Luckly they all arrived, none missing.
