Skipping a School Day...

Today, I did not show up for school. For those anal-rententive folks from the district school board reading this, it's parent approved. Anyways, today I got to go downtown to get my student transit pass updated.

To be brief, I take around 5 hours of my day every day on the way to and from school. I'm a public transportation boy; even if I had the certifications I wouldn't be just driving my car it would be too nerveracking. But anyways, because I travel around 90 kms or so to school and back, the costs of it jump up into the roof. As a result, I got myself a student discount card for the transport system which cuts the costs around 15%. Quite modest.

Anyways, I had to go to Union Station, and since I haven't been there since February, things looked very different. Walking outside I saw a bunch of school-clad lads waiting for their bus. They're probably on some trip here from the United States seeing that they had suitcases, bags and other interesting packs with them. One of them grinned at me, to my disgust. I don't exactly like men in that particular way.

Though I am quite modest budget-wise, I ate lunch inside Union Station. If you've ever been in downtown Toronto before, then you'd understand why I just contradicted myself. But while I was enjoying my Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad, I saw a bunch of females and a bunch of males, just sketching the place. I find it very intruging that a place of such commuter commotion could become a beautiful piece of art. But I was proven wrong.

As I got home I was too preoccupied with the high rises. How could a city like Toronto have such a metropolis feel? That question was quickly solved, my mouth shut faster than "a speeding bullet" as the tall buildings harassed my view of the road.
