065 - March Bus Pass Get!





To get from my house to Disneyworld, it would cost approximately $3920 by taxi.

The Christmas tree at the Train Station on that crazy day when Prashanta and I got robbed, lost, parking-ticketed, and caught trying to sell a train ticket.

It was around this time when the car got broken in to. We're none the wiser!

Hearts in the toilet. No, this isn't commentary on love. Sometimes, little hearts just end up in the toilet.

I got my March bus pass today, at a cost to me of $25.00, instead of the usual $62 n change. $62 is a ton of money now that I think about it - and that's just for students! The woman who served me at the Lincoln Fields station was cranky, and visibly frustrated... Might have something to do with the massive line up (they eventually opened a second till. Eyck). Or it might have to do with the I'm sure tons of dissatisfied people she's had to serve over the last month. Bu she shouldn't be short with me, or be rude to me when I ask about the December pass I had to relinquish. She should be mad at her company, and telling them what it's like working in the trenches.

I still think I'm being cheated, however. OC Transpo announced free service for December bus pass holders until the end of March. I just thought now about how it actually would have been cheaper for me to refund my December pass and then but the March one at full price. I didn't even consider that scenario until it was too late. I should call them about that.
