Early Birds Catch the Car

Woke up 7 am this morning.

A sad truth of the matter for a university student, is the means of transport from the Student house to University. There are usually several options to get to universities; walk, cycle, catch the bus, or by car. Those who are able, can wake up especially early in order to catch the bus to our out in the countryside University, since walking and cycling is out of the question.

So for those who have cars, their lives become hell, as they become taxi drivers for fellow students who live nearby. They have to get up early and be ready to leave as soon as their passengers arrive at their door, and then deal with their banter throughout the journey. Then, decide whether or not to bring home the passengers later on that day.

Ninny and I have to deal with this problem as we are both car owners. Thankfully, on Mondays, we car share, however the day starts at 11 am and then finishes at 8 pm. For me on a Thursday, it is only I who needs to drive in, so of course, Smellion and his housemates all grab a lift from me. Not that I mind or anything.

But I did agree to bring them home, so that means I have to wait an extra hour and a half for them to finish up their lectures in order to get home. Of course, I hold on to the car keys this time as much as I trust Smellion, I don't want to become stranded without my keys. Good lord, if that were to happen, I would most definitely cry.
