Once again the trolley was crowded when I boarded after class. It wasn't as bad as it usually is though. I saw a man with thick dreadlocks and they looked Pretty cool. A woman was sitting across from him and they struck up a conversation. At 5th avenue a woman boarded and sat in the same booth. I saw her eyes darting to his hair and then back to the ground. She did that several more times which seemed like she was just trying not to get caught looking at him. I couldn't see his face so I have no idea if he caught her or not.
I decided to ride without music. It was strange and noisy but it was interesting to hear people talking. A few people are talking loudly on their cell phones. One man was talking so loud it was hard to concentrate. The next stop announcements were also very loud. Perhaps my ears are just being sensitive. I'm afraid to talk now for fear of yelling.
When I transferred at Old Town I believe the new trolley was more crowded. Usually it's not packed with almost twice as many people. It was a strange ride, though, because it went by so quickly.
Until next time,
Alana
