I know I shouldn't find this funny but...

sherryillkWell, it was bound to happen. And deep down, I've always wished that it would happen. My bus broke down today. It suddenly stalled in the middle of the road and no matter how the driver tried to fix it, it just wouldn't move. And he wouldn't let us out either because of the whole middle of the road, traffic all around us thing. I bet he was afraid he was going to get sued or blamed if any of us get run over by a car... I wonder if that's covered by driving school? Hmmm...
Anyway, we were stuck for about five or ten minutes and after a while, it just started to grate on me. I mean really, we were one lane away from the sidewalk and that lane is usually a bus stop so it's not like there's much traffic blocking us from the sidewalk. Not only that, we had stopped around 24th St so really, we were two blocks away. It's easily walkable.
Eventually, another NYU bus pulled up and our driver led us to safety. Some actually went and got on the other bus. I just walked. I mean what's the point anyway? I was two streets away -- that's like nothing.
I did find it very amusing though. Other people were much more annoyed than me but I've always wanted something like this to happen to me (at an inconvenient time of course), ever since Brittney had it happen to her last year. Only she was late to class which kinda sucked. I'm free for the rest of the day so yay!
Japanese went well. Hanawa was nice so I was happy. I still don't really think all too well when put on the spot but I'm doing better... It's weird that even though I compose this nice little answer to the questions and once I'm actually saying them, I stumble on the words... Ah, well, it's over. Monday is Nonaka-sensei, the only professor I've never had before but I've heard good things about her so hopefully she's okay.
Okay, I've had lunch, a bit late since the bus fiasco took a bit of time...What shall I do now?
I kinda feel like an after lunch nap since I couldn't sleep very well last night. For one thing, my roommate went to sleep at 10 PM so I left and went up to the 26th Floor Lounge to catch Top Chef... And I ended up staying until 1 AM. By that time, I wasn't tired at all. I came back with the intention to do some stuff, hoping that she's asleep and wouldn't find a bit of light coming from my desk but...
Anyway, I did stuff until 2ish.... Hopefully I didn't wake her up or bother her. I was totally paranoid about noise so I didn't type anything and I wore my headphones... Eventually, I even turned off my desk lamp and dimmed the screen of my laptop. I'm sure that's the cause of my red eyes and eye strain when I woke up this morning but I guess I'll get used to it... I mean how exactly do you justify staying up? I mean she has early classes and she's naturally an early sleeper, early to rise type of person. She obvious gets precedence over me. *sigh* I'll deal. It's not perfect but at least she's making me want to go to sleep earlier... Even if I don't get that much time to do stuff...watch TV shows until 2 AM...do my homework in my room...
Well, that's kinda depressing. I wonder if that's why I can't sleep? I always get insomnia when I'm depressed, sad, or stressed... :\
I just need to find some way to deal that works for me. Like studying earlier, prioritizing my watching... I'm usually a do both at the same time type of girl so I guess I have to be a do one thing, finish it type of girl.
Okay, I'm going to get into bed, watch TV and if I fall asleep, whatever. I have time tonight and tomorrow and then there's the weekend. It's all good.
