78 Thoughts While on the B Line

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BC chapter.

If you’ve had to take the B Line during rush-hour you will totally relate. 

1. Okay, placement is done. I’m ready to get back to BC and take a nap.

2.Definitely need my nap.

3. Hey, the Park Street stop is pretty nice. Definitely not what I was expecting. The Boylston stop is gross.

4. Hurry up card and scan!!! The D train is leaving!

5. I cannot believe I missed the train, but there is probably another one coming in a couple of minutes.

6. Wow, of course the one-day I really want to get back to school there are no trains coming.

7. Why is this taking so long?

8. E line? No one takes the E line! Who wants to go to Northeastern anyways?

9. C line? Haha no.

10. Wow, it has literally been fifteen minutes and there are no trains coming.

11. Another E train? Literally I give up on life.

12. Okay B train.

13. You really shouldn’t take this train.

14. But who knows when another one will come!

15. But it’s the B line!!

16. But if you get on the train now then there’s a chance you’ll get back to BC before people who take the D line do.

17. Okay yeah maybe waiting for the bus at reservoir does suck.

18. But is it still worth it?

19. Wow. I can’t believe you actually did it.

20. Worst decision ever? Probably.

21. Well if you ever hate your life more, you can transfer to a D line at Kenmore.

22. Oh wait, but I have a seat now. I probably won’t get a seat if I transfer.

23. Is having a seat really that important to me?

24. Umm, yes.

25. Okay then, I guess I’m staying on the B line.

26. Please go fast.

27. Okay, at least we got through Downtown Boston pretty quickly. Always a plus.

28. We are above ground; here comes the worst ride of your life.

29. Wow, I did not realize how close BU actually is to downtown Boston.

30. Still would have hated it.

31. Sucks to BU!!!

32. Why does BU have like 20 different stops?

33. MBTA is catering to BU!!!

34. Just make people walk!!!

35.This is ridiculous.

36. It’s been 10 minutes and we are only three stops in.

37. If this was the D line I would already be at Beaconsfield.

38. Congratulations Maddy, you probably made the worst decision of your life.

39. Actually…

40. Okay, that was the worst decision of your life.

41. But this is a close second.

42. And of course now my phone is running out of battery.

43. Do you think there are outlets on the train?

44. Probably not.

45. That’s a disappointment.

46. Okay, finally away from BU. Took us long enough.

47. Wait, it isn’t just a straight shot from BU to BC?

48. Oh my god literally what am I doing with my life?

49. Why are we at Harvard Ave? Harvard isn’t around here?

50. Can someone please come up with some street names that aren’t confusing like this?

51. Is it really too much to ask?

52. I really should of transferred to the D line.

53. Having to stand is not the end of the world.

54. Okay maybe it is.

55. But it still would have been better than being on this hell train.

56. Am I only halfway?

57. I might die.

58. You should just uber.

59. It’s not worth this pain.

60. Oh my god suck it up I can do this!

61. I can’t do this!!!

62. Oh hey, there’s the placement that you could of gone to.

63. But then you would always have to take the B line.

64. I hate the B line.

65. Hey! I know where we are!

66. I’m almost back!!

67. Freedom!!!

68. Can this train go any faster?

69. I’m getting claustrophobic all up in here.

70. Wait, no no no no no! Why are we stopping?

71. Literally, screw traffic lights.

72. Okay, maybe not, but still.

73. Thank god, we’re moving.

74. I have never been more thankful in my life.

75. Goodbye to you and goodbye to you and goodbye to you sir. I will never see you again.

76. Moral of the story, never taking the B line again.

77. Oh wait, you have to get to Park street at 7am every Saturday morning.

78. Crap.
