November 8^th bus 436

The days are getting just a little bit darker. The sun is no longer up as i drag myself out of bed in the morning so that i can catch the bus to school. But yet i thought this would be a day filled with longning to sleep and be at home with my sister who is back for the week. But alas I get to learn and it is great. Gwen and hwen are on the bus just being their usual chatty kathys with one another. And it seems we have a new addition to our daily bus ride. I call her stephanie and she reminds me of the typical young elementary girl. She is on the bus when i get on and gets off rather quickly. Quickly being she gets off where roger and amanda get on. Her hair is usually done up in a double pony tail with a decorative hair band to match the elementary kid look. O elementary a time when you were excited to see your school friends, learn some things from your favorite teacher, then rush off to recess to use your brilliant imagination to create worlds and games that parents just dont understand. On tuesdays when i take the bus i go by an elementary school in full swing of reces and it is in a word wonderful. Kids just being kids. Sort of makes me long for camp where the kids aren't worried about anything other than when do i get to play and for how long. It is really disheartening now to drive by the high school and see the teens who have lost that innocence of youth. Instead of filling their minds with imagination and creativity they fill it with drugs and alchol they exchange the great time of a child for what they think are the great times of an adult. Smoking outside the mac's all in a big group. “No one can touch them.” I wish they would find Jesus maybe in a youth group or a school teacher but there needs to be more witnesses to them cause they are the new generation coming up. It is a generation being brought up by more and more lax morals till i fear what kind of generation they will rise up. We need to pray more and more not just for ourselves and Mrs. Johnsons toe but for out neighbors and for the schools that Satan has so deeply infultrated. Pray for the children and generations to come.

October 27 – bus 983

Well this morning i am late to getting started to writing this wonderful story. I guess the busses rund later on days with icy ground. He did not stop at my spot for the regular 10 min that usually happens. Nope he was just driving by and I bstrly got on. There was a new high school student today he looked pretty cool. Police Club got on with the same mittens and hat that i saw her inlast night when i got off the bus with her. They are the first eddition olypic canada mittens from the 2006 torino olympics. I could barely recognize roger and amanda when they got on this morning cause they were bundled up so much and with the hoods on i oculd not see their faces. It has been a really interesting ride cause i think for the first time we had two people get off the bus before 8^th street. I wonder where they are going. Mindy is also on the bus this morning sporting her baby blue jacket and jeans to match. There was another girl who got on the us with her. She looks like a high school student not to happy eithershe sort of had an emo thing goin on with this deep red and black hoodie with big white stripes in a plaid fashion. It is realy cool we are following the the sixteen bus andt they are picking up all the people and we are just following them around i think they are communicating between the two busses now, Maybe the sixteen will go past the next stop and we will pick up the people. Plaid girl pulled the line and is requesting the next stop. I wonder where she is going. Maybe she works at the daycare or clarence market. Nope. Poor police club looks really tired she is almost sleeping wobbling back and forth. Normally she has big headphones in but this morning she has ear buds. I think ibuds from ipods and she has an itouch. Maybe new well she should realize that the ibuds suck on those and she will go back to her skull candy. We are moving really slowly now. O well this gives me the chance to talk about this girl sitting across from police club. She has this very nice pink adidas back pack. Ok just to give you an idea on how slow wer are moving. This girl missed the bus and and were a ways from the stop by now and she was able to walk catch up to the bus and yeah quite sad. Ok so now these two guys are trying to cross the street to catch up to the bus. I just saq this biker on his way to somewhere he was wearing ski goggles very logical but funny looking. Well i am going to go now this has sure been an eventful ride but i just feel that any more writing would just be rambling. And besides i want to read Phillipians.

Oct 29 bus 419

so this entry is different from all the rest sofar as it is written on the way home not to school. And right now i just want to share some thoughts about halloween. Usually most stories end with the good moral just be yourself you don't need to be like anyone else or act like them but just be yourself. But what is halloween about. Dressing up and going to get candy from others. Tow girls just got off the bus probably going to get their costumes ready for the halloween party that they will be attending. Back to the original thought. Halloween is really all about being someone else and becoming their persona. Then you parade that persona around town going from door to door expecting them to give you candy. Which makes me think about the other part of trick or treating. What no one seems to expect the trick part. I wonder how many people actually trick others or try to scare them with tricks. I wonder what God thkns about trick or treating. Man looks at the outward appearance but God looks at the heart. Isn't that the whole picture. I believe that in north america we say we want to be unique and individual yet everything thing we do we do usually for the aproval of others. To often we are worried about what others are going to think. What will they think if my hair is messy. What will they think if i wear and old t-shirt to class. What if they find out i buy my clothes at wal-mart. What is cool and is not cool is not by any means important to God and he does not care if you have an Armani suit dulche and gabana hand bag or even roxy jeans. All God looks at and cares for is your heart and if that is not in its right place what do you need to do to make it right. Have a great day! God be with you..b

.October 20^th bus 441

This morning is a cold and in my mind a somewhat dreary one. Poor Ashley looks very cold. I dont think the bus driver has the temperature set very high. He is a new guy so i wonder if he is knows how to set the temperature. Baljeep is here too he looks rather chilled himself of course both of them are wearing their signature hoodies Baljeep blue and Ashley Brown. Mindy got on the bus at her stop this morning. Which was about time she has not let her presence grace the rest of us in quite some time. Roger and Amanda both well rested and ready to go. Police club is here she iwas wearing an interesting hoodie it says TGS staff whatever that is cant see the back which has more details. Yay Gregorov is on the bust the family is complete. All the first time people i rode the bus with. All the regulars maybe i should stand up and yell bingo. Wait it is just not the same without busdriver Bob. Also amidst the original family is Gwen or Hwen i cant tell i dont think i have distinguished between the two. And another guy younger university student probably in his second year he is studying veraciously. Time to play the 8^th street game. I think He will be older probably mid 30's. Not he would have a car if it is a he he would be alot older like in his 50's. 0 for 2 now. She who just go on is a middle eastern girl university student. I wonder if police club has more than one pair of her new old style tennis shoes. The ones she has on this morning are rather dirty well used where as the ones i saw the other day were not. Interesting there was a guy who got on and sat directly across from here and her chewing rater of her gum shot up significantly. What that has to do with the guy sitting across from her i dont know but it is interesting. Maybe she has always been chewing that fast and i just did not notice it before. The bus driver is in some sort of hurry this morning speeding down the road over shooting by the bustops with people on then stopping sometimes stopping 20 feet past them to stop.
