When my professor asked my class to create a blog, I saw the excitement in many of my fellow classmates' faces. Me, on the other hand, felt indifferent towards this assignment. I have never considered myself a blogger, and I had never planned on making one until today. Nevertheless, I am always open to new experiences, therefore will experiment this foreign form of social networking with open arms. The only thing I struggled with was a topic.
I contemplated on what interesting subject that I can blog about, and I immediately thought of my experiences on our lovely public transpiration system. Coming from Jamaica, Queens, that hour long train ride to CCNY always seems to find ways to surprise me in the most unexpected moments. Anyone who has ever ridden on one of our elegant NYC trains knows exactly what I am talking about. To whoever will be reading my blog this semester, I hope you find it unique and relatable. To anybody who has not experienced a train ride in our great city, I hope this brings a glimpse of what you have been missing.
I love this idea! As New Yorkers we know the MTA all to very well.. and the people too. I have had plenty of strange experiences on the train so it will be funny to see if any of your stories can relate to mine. There is a lot to write about and I am looking forward to start reading your stories.
ReplyDeleteI love people watching on the MTA! Its a fun experience and I definitely can't wait to hear your stories. A suggestion is switching up your route on the way home/or to school, so you can experience new and different types of people. Even changing what car your enter can invite a whole new set of people into your world! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteI think this is a great idea for a blog, and I was thinking of doing the same thing. My commute to CCNY is about an hour, and there are a lot of strange people on the train. This is great blog, and can't wait for what's coming up!
