I wrote an entry over the weekend, but it was swallowed in the internet somewhere.

I got my pass last Wednesday and have used it a few times already, and am about half an hour from other ride.  I first took it to the Wheelock Library a few blocks away.  It is quite embarrassing because it is quite close by anything but walking, but I wanted to test the card out, and will use it for the same purpose today.  That was the biggest news from that ride; the small bit of embarrassment of being the last one on and the first one out since there are only a couple stops inbetween.

I did ride the bus to Olympia on Friday [first down to the terminal then to Olympia], and that was more eventful.  I met this high school girl going to meet a guy in Olympia to drive down the Portland.  I did worry about her, but haven't seen anything worrisome in the news.  I also got a little carsick because I was reading during the ride, bad idea. 

Looking around the bus, it was full of people I wouldn't ordinarily see on campus, and it was much cheaper than having my parents pick me up from home and take me back.
