#59 Bus Driver or Bus Rider

As I awoke at 5 am , pounded the stupid alarm and preparing myself to get through the boring part of my day. I am a bus driver for English Elementary and … ill get to that later. I rush to the bathroom and then throw on some clothes. As I head out the door I immediately remember that I forgot the most important thing my helmet and duffle bag inside of my closet. I go back into the house to retrieve my things . Jump into the big yellow contraption and begin my daily route. I greet the kids with fake hellos, and slight grins. I play their favorite YouTube hits to keep them from asking obnoxious questions. I pick up the last kid on my route and head for English Elementary. As the kids exit the bus , I remind them to have a good day and to smile. As soon as the last kid unloads my bus I feel a small sign of relief that’s quickly interrupted by the thought of picking the kids back up and taking them home. While the kids are in school I grab food and crash in the parking lot since today’s a half day. I am awaken by the faint sound of the last class bell and the roaring kids during out of the mouth of the elementary school. I pull around to the front greet the kids … once again and begin my last route. The kids are chanting and swaying with the YouTube hits I play on the aux but, there is one kid constantly kicking the back of my sit. I simply ignore and and tune into the road. As the last kid exits the bus to smiling , joyous parents . I am free! I quickly hop on the highway and go down to what we call the “skaters” park. I get off the bus and grab my skateboard from the emergency room. I stay at the Skaters Park until it gets dark, which is about 9:30 pm. I gather my things and head back to my bus. I then head to the bus driver derby. I pull up to the gated area and show my drivers pass. Its go time! I put on my helmet and my driver’s jumpsuit and drive right up to the start line. Yes, I drive my bus in a drag race competition. Finally, I reach under the steering wheel and press my red button. I feel the vibrations of the windows closing spikes coming out of my tires and my engine roaring. I am now ready to race.
