就算做朋友也没关系
为你改变了自己都不认识自己
不是我跑去了整形
只是我拿出真心
(it don't matter if we're friends;
i've changed for you so much i can't recognize myself,
it's not that I've had plastic surgery,
just that I showed my true heart)

... maybe next time I should strike up a conversation with the person sitting next to me. but they might get weirded out?!!?
taking public transport features a lot of weird etiquette I will never understand - but it's better for the environment and I can keep dumbfounding bus drivers' minds when I say "thank you" in unaccented Australian English as I disembark every day ~

greetings good people of earth! today was another rainy day which was saddening but I hope the sky doesn't decide to shit because there's cycring to do tomorrow! yaaaaaaaay. I am take a break from history because the Ainu peoples' history is tres disorienting and makes me look at my bed with an expression of lust that could only match Graham's when looking at a poster of SNSD.
anywho ~ today I caught the bus and on Wednesdays there is a barrage of private schoolers who board the bus and talk loudly etc. Sometimes I really enjoy catching the bus because it's a great opportunity to chill and eavesdrop into these peoples' conversations. It's like hearing non-Asian Wilsons talking to other non-Asian Wilsons about their wealth *___*.
However what I've noticed with people on my bus (private schoolers in particular) is that they'll sit next to me and then when there is a vacant spot they will relocate there ;__; I've been trying to work this out for ages. But nevertheless I have figured out that the following things may be crossing their mind when they sit next to me and then decide to relocate.
1. "This chick smells bad": but I swear the guy who sat in the seat you were sitting in smells much worse than me... (chinky smell > shit smell, deshou?) but regardless, if I do smell bad someone please tell me -_____-
2. "fark more Asians clogging the public transport system - sitting next to one disgusts me": can't exactly argue with this one... :L
3. "pssh public schoolers - sitting next to one disgusts me": I would like to think that private schoolers aren't *this* snobby.
4. "ooh, if I sit here there's a better view of that guy/girl's ass": can't disagree with this one either.
