Just got home from visiting Kyle again,
it's been a pain sometimes to make the trip up there and this Friday was the worst!
You see... I take the bus from Duncan (home) up to Victoria (where Ky lives) and honestly, Duncan has the shadiest Bus Depot. O_O It will make you /so/ paranoid.
They have a warning sign in the building, urging you to watch out for curtain people that will con you!
Proof of how horrid it is.
Anyways,
This is what happened... went to catch the 6:20 bus, and once shows up. Hand my ticket get on board and we're off. 10 minutes later I look out the window I realize we're going the opposite way of which I want to go! I ask the person beside me if this bus goes to Victoria, and of course it doesn't. I try to get the bus drives attention but it's much too loud... I don't know what to do and my phones connection is totally gone. Finally we stop 20 minutes into the ride and I hop off the bus and run over to the drive who is wondering around outside (don't know why) and after many "excuse me sir" he notices someone is trying to get his attention! e_e;; I explain that this isn't the way I want to go and my ticket says Victoria. He gives me the other half of my ticket and leaves me at this random gas station... little to no words were said to me by that man of what I should do. Would I get a refund? When would the next bus be? Is there one? He didn't even apologize!
Honestly! If this was an airport they wouldn't let me use a ticket to Hong Kong and let me onto a flight to Hawaii!
I wanted to curl up and cry.
Luckily the guy in the gas station was helpful and after awhile of calling my home I got a hold of my Mumf and she gave me a ride back to the Bus Depot in Duncan and I caught the last bus with no questions about my ticket.
You know what the stupidest thing of all was? The Bus Depot closed at 6, even tho they had 2 other buses with people getting on and off at that stop. That prevented me from complaining about the lousy bus driver how shouldn't have let me onto that bus.... I think I'm going onto the website and seeing if I can do anything there.
Anyways.... weekend was good! Had a date with Kyle in China Town. Got myself a tea set (or sake set) and some Chai tea~
I will post pictures of it later ♥
Finally gathered all the stuff needed for Wiz's package. I will decorate and wrap things tomorrow like.
*yawn* I be a little sleep now. It's been a pretty eventful weekend.
