a journey by bus
It is generally said that a journey by bus is not as thrilling as one by train or aero plane is. However, I had quite a pleasant experience of the journey by bus which I undertook few months ago.
It was the month of January. My annual examination was over. I had recess for some days. My parents decided to go to my uncle’s house at Jamalpur by bus. Hearing the news my heart danced with joy. It was 15th January 2014.We got into the bus at Gabtolli bus terminal in due time.
It was winter. There was pleasant sunshine. The sun started punctually just at 6 a.m. I sat beside a window and was looking outside. The sun was rising with all its splendid beauty. Within an hour our bus began running leaving the urban areas at a high speed along the road with green fields on both sides. I was looking at the houses, trees, and meadows through the window with a cheerful mind. Things came to my vision and vanished in the twinkling of an eye. Everything on either side seemed running swiftly to the opposite direction.

When the bus was running through the forest of ‘Modhupur ghar’, the tall trees with green leaves gave a nice view. I was really charmed at the green beauties of Nature. It filled my heart with great joy. The bus ran continuously for three hours. It then stopped at a place named Palash.There was a restaurant by the roadside. We got down from the bus and had light refreshment there.

After a few minutes the bus began its journey again crossing the green fields on both the sides of the road. This time we saw bare-bodied youngsters tending cattle and grown up people working in the field. Occasionally we saw village women and girls bathing and washing clothes in the ponds. At about 12 noon we reached Jamalpur.Thus our journey came to an end.

The journey by bus was really a pleasant one. I can hardly forget the sweet memory of this journey. The scene of the journey peeps into my mind when I become tired of the monotonous urban life.

    I glanced out of the train window, watching the scenery speed away. Mighty oaks, bristling firs and radiant maple trees were all transformed into no more than colourful pins. The seat beside me lay vacant, as what once sat a wonderful and lovely gentleman, no longer shares with me the long trip home. I stare at the endless mass of space, overshadowing the Earth. The grey radiant clouds, together, began to form a distinctive image of his face, shaping his luminous smile almost to an exact. The subconscious image the clouds attempted to portray, vanished in a matter or seconds, as the white, thick clouds, spread its wings in what was forecasted to be a destructive path. Witnessing this brings me back to the day God wept a silent rain among the mournful souls.…

    As we rode along, I watched the skyscrapers turn into trees, and the sidewalks turn into grass. We went from urban to rural in an hour. During the ride, I thought about my career as a writer, and how earlier that day I was talking aloud to my interactive voice typewriter. I could not come up with anything noteworthy, so I left my house out of frustration. I was headed to a park for inspiration when I ran into Otis.…

    Introduction- The East Bay area is an economically diverse community with many satisfactory and unsatisfactory aspects. Each city had its differences and distinctions in people, settings, and cleanliness. As the bus left the station and went around the corner I could tell that we were in a low poverty city. With loose trash and debris in front of houses and apartment buildings, the area looked torn down and not very visual pleasing. Already familiar with the city of Emeryville I knew to expect a more upscale location. With plenty of name brand stores, and new apartment complexes, it was obvious this city was clean and very different from the previous location. As the bus…

    The very next morning we decided to leave for a nearby waterfall. I took the responsibility to pack our snacks and dry fruits. We left around 8 o’clock in the morning. It was sunny and humid, so we decided to just rest and start out early the following morning. We went on the jeep, which was named by the local as “Moon Car”. The bumpy roads and the strong wind made us feel that we were dancing with the breeze. We were very close to the downstream of the fall when we saw a man preparing to do his bungee jump. The man had dropped his coat over the side of the hill and we all watched as it fell and swirled around in the whirlpool. After that we went to “Subholong”, it is one of the small villages in the south eastern region of Bangladesh which has its own waterfall.…

    However, taking buses can be time consuming because buses have to take the longest routes and halt at every bus stop. Furthermore, some passengers can be smelly or rude, and not at all pleasant to sit next to. Buses can also be dirty and noisy. Some bus stops don’t even provide shelter from the rain or a place to sit. But the main problem that we students face is the bus schedule. Many of us often miss the school bus because we need to stay after school for academic or extra-curricular activities.…

    Rain was always a sign of tragedy, something bad didn’t happen every time it rained, no, but everything bad that happened to me in my life had happened on a day when it was pouring. Alight sprinkle never phased me, it was also raining that day. As I woke up in my warm & cosy queen sized bed, I remember feeling a cold shiver going up my back through my pink silky pyjamas. It was a typical December morning, it wasn’t snowing yet but it was cold and foggy. As I got ready to go to school the eerie silence in the house surrounded me while I was getting changed. I had a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach giving me goose bumps all over my body.…
