8 Thoughts We All Have While Riding the T

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

Riding the T can try anyone’s patience at times, especially for those of us that ride it every day. Here are a few thoughts we all have when riding the T.

1. Wow, it’s freezing out! Why do I always seem to miss the T by seconds?

2. Oh, it’s here! Oh wait, never mind, it’s going express…

3. Ah yes, I love being shoulder to shoulder with strangers.

4. Maybe if I move my arm ever so slightly I can take my phone out… and there it goes.

5. Must this driver stop so abruptly?

6. Yes! There’s an open seat… Oh, well, I guess you can take it. I didn’t want that seat anyway.

7. The T is standing by for five minutes. Do I stay here or make a run for the train on the other side of the track?

8. Please get to Boylston before my class starts…
