Just an unusual day.

Hokhay. (inside joke: Ze end of ze world)

These days I leave for schools when it's dark and I come back again when it's dark again.
After school I went into a bar to find myself locked there.
How? The door handle broke down and the door couldn't be closed and it was cold.
And then, someone slammed it. BUT we couldn't open it afterwards.
Wouldn't that be just terrific? To get locked in a bar. Only with gallons of beer, plenty packs of cigarettes and pickled sausages.
We did of course manage to open the doors eventually.

Then I came into a tram and I sat down.
Few stops later, an older woman came, so I stood up like a real gentleman to let her sit.
She said: "Do I look so old already?"
I said: "I would have let you sit even if you were 4 years old child."

Sometimes it's not so hard to make grumpy people smile, but you just gotta try.

I left the tram just to wait for another one.
I knew I was barely making it for the bus that leaves for my suburban shithole from another station, where I first needed to get by tram.

I was little nervous, because I figured if I wouldn't catch the bus I'd have to wait for like an hour in a freezing cold.
And the tram finally came.
So I went in.
And suddenly a beautiful girl wearing a bed sheet passed by me.
She got into the same tram as I did.
A weird little lovely urban angel.

That tram was a jet tram. That's how I call trams that arrive to my station in the same minute as the bus leaves.
Adrenaline rush unleashed as the doors opened and I ran like I was running for my life.
Ignoring my surrounds.
But I did watch behind my shoulder who was leaving the tram.
It was a final stop so everyone had to leave.
But I couldn't see the girl in the snow white sheet.
And probably, I will never see her again.

The merciless city doesn't throw opportunities for free.
And sometimes you just don't get no opportunities no matter how hard you try.
