There’s No Gettin’ Off This Train We’re On

Recently, I was late—very late. So late, I had to take a very late bus downtown, and missed my ride to Cheonan city to help with an English class and a couple Bible studies. Not only that, but I also forgot my handphone—err, cell phone. (Handphone is the term they use in Korean.) The worst mistake was forgetting my phone, because though I was a bit late, I could’ve called the pastor and coordinate meeting them as they drove out of town. Since I didn’t have my phone, I had to go all the way back home to get it. (it reminds me how important communication is, with one another, and also with God.)

So I took a train. Woooo! It was a decent price, too--like 5 bucks or something. Never before have I rode on a full-fledged train (the subway doesn’t count!), so I was pretty excited! The interior was a cross between a commercial airliner and a bus—just without the noise. So silent, so speedy, such a splendid seat!

I took the K-Rail. Yes, it went pretty fast. I also got to see some very industrial areas that I was not privy to see taking the highway expressway.

I do hope to take the train again sometime soon. Just not under the same circumstances.

Trains are awesome, so are boats,

if you miss the bus, don’t forget your phone!
