I hate riding the train to get to class every day. It’s not because it smells or it is always late, it is because it is such a long and boring commute. Whenever I ride the train, I mostly, if not always, fall asleep. I sleep regardless if I were standing or sitting. Once I get on, I put in my headphones, grab onto a pole, and just wait. After a minute or two, my eyes slowly close on its own so I just try to relax. Then, my head tilts and my neck loses energy. When my head drops, I instantly wake up with a jump and my eyes wide open. The first thing I do is look around to see if anybody saw that. Hoping that nobody noticed it, I close my eyes again. This time, one of my legs loses energy and bends. I wake up again with a jump. This time I know everybody saw it. “That’s it, no more sleeping,” I tell myself and I take out my iPod to play games so that I don’t fall asleep. I hate these embarrassing moments. They are similar to the moments when people feel like they are falling in the beds and waking up to them. However, my moments are in public with many people watching, unlike a bed where you are alone in your own sanctuary.
