sleep>bus

On a usual Tuesday or Thursday I drive my car to get to class. When I
changed it up a bit and took public transportation into campus, the trip
to school became longer and more tedious than I had bargained for. I was
forced out of bed about an hour earlier than my usual schedule and had to
power walk to the bus stop to ensure that I would catch the 10:22 bus. I
opt to use my car to get to school everyday because although it is not the
cheapest or the most environmental friendly option, it is by far the most
convenient of my options. Once on campus, I have the freedom to leave at
my own discretion. Also during my breaks it is a lot easier to leave and
run a couple errands before having to go back to class. I'd hate to admit
it, but my laziness also plays a huge part in deciding what mode of
transportation I use and what route I take. If I had no choice but to take
the bus on the daily basis, I can already foresee myself loving sleep too
much to jump out of bed and walk a good mile to catch a bus.
