public transportation: a story in pictures

Since I do not have a car here, I have to rock the public transportation system. It can be exhausting planning how to get everywhere and it's annoying whenever I need to be somewhere and there isn't a metro stop nearby. But, overall, it's been nice being able to have a train take me directly to work and skip the car traffic. I also have been having some...noteworthy...experiences on public transportation.
I want to take a moment and document such an experience with pictures.
On day, I was coming home on the bus from Target after stocking up on warm things since I have been so dang cold here.

I was sitting there, minding my own business, when a couple of 30- to 40-something year old men get on the bus.

One of them sat in the back, which was what I was expecting, but one of them sat right behind me.

He started to talk to me.

"Hey. What's your name?"

"Emily."

"Emilyyy. Where do you live?"

"Around."

"Heh heh heh. Where are you living? Did you go shopping?"

"Uhhh yeah."

I was thinking this whole time about whether or not I should get off at my stop, and if he would follow me. I kept looking out the window and ignoring him, hoping he would get the hint and go back to his friend. I mentioned my "boyfriend" and he asked me how my Spanish was.

Then he drops: "Heh heh sooo Emily, can I have your number?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"Because I don't think my boyfriend would like that."

"Well why not? Can I have your number?"

"No."

I sat and looked out the window, ignoring his "Emilys" and "Can I have your numbers." A sitting in front of me turned around and gave him him a look that was akin to "whatchyou doin' boy?"

I got to my stop and got off, thinking it was far enough from my house where he wouldn't figure out where I live. I was thinking, "Please don't get off at my stop. Please don't get off. Please don't follow me. PLEASE don't get off here." He didn't, but as I stood up, he chuckled, "Oh, so THIS is where you leeve." 

I ignored him and stepped off the bus. He opened the window as I walked away from the bus: "BYEE EMILEEE!"

And that was my first experience of awkwardness on the metro. Yesterday, I had a guy just stare at me on the way to work. We'd make eye contact, he's look away for a second, then I could tell he was just staring again. A full metro, during rush hour, and he's just staring at me. Ew.

Oh public transportation.
