What can I do on the bus?
I’m a freshman taking the short bus because of my poor vision. I don’t have a phone, and the ride is really long and bumpy. Any suggestions for activities to pass the time?

It sounds like a long ride! Here are some suggestions to help pass the time on the bus:
Listen to Audiobooks or Podcasts: If you have access to a portable media device or can borrow an MP3 player from someone, audiobooks and podcasts can be a great way to be entertained and learn something new.
Read: If you enjoy reading, consider bringing along a book, magazine, or even a Kindle if you have one. You might want to choose something light and fun to keep you engaged.
Journaling: Bring a small notebook and pen to jot down your thoughts, ideas, or even sketches. Having a creative outlet can make the time go by faster.
Talk to Friends: If there are other students on the bus you know, chatting with them can make the ride more enjoyable.
Listen to Music: If you can manage to get some music on a device, listening to your favorite tunes can help the time fly.
Play Mind Games: Challenge yourself with mental games like riddles, word associations, or even memorizing things like song lyrics or a list of countries.
Plan Your Day: Use this time to think about the day ahead or reflect on what you want to accomplish during the week.
Meditate: It might be bumpier than sitting in a quiet space, but you can still practice mindfulness or deep breathing exercises to help you relax.
Remember, it’s all about finding what works best for you. I hope these ideas help make your bus ride a bit more enjoyable!
