I just could not understand how erect everyone was..

It was a huge contrast to what I was used to on a Sydney city train with people talking to each other, on their mobiles, sipping a cup off coffee, arms on back's of chairs, and having a bite to eat.
Ha that's pretty funny. So you decided to be the nail that would jump up out of the wood. I do remember being on a train and a bus and thinking the same thing - it was really quiet. It was basically just me and my friends talking. One day, the headmaster made an announcement saying that the students of the school were being too loud on the public transportation. x_x


LOVE: pass it on
