Heh, I'm finding myself unable to sleep all the sudden. At the rate I was going, I was gonna wait till we got to the new place to write another entry, but the fact that our scheduled arrival is tomorrow is filling me with lots of anxiety, so I'm having trouble getting some shut-eye...so maybe writing out my thoughts will help get things off my chest!...er, mind.
After spending such a long time on this train, it's weird to think we'll finally be off it by tomorrow morning. I kinda got used to living on this thing...I shouldn't get too carried away, but it's hard when it's so accommodating...and peaceful. Well...I wasn't really feeling so peaceful the first day or two while I was busy checking out every corner of every car in my enthusiasm, but today, I spent a lot of my time just relaxing and soaking in the last day of our train ride. Jensea thought something was wrong since I was being so quiet ^^; But I was just thinking about a lot of things, I guess. I spent a lot of my time today just...observing other passengers. Seeing as I don't spend so much time with normal people in a normal environment, all the different passengers and their variety of agendas was sort of...intriguing to me.
I initially boarded this train expecting to see a bunch of boring passengers just focused on their destination and it's purpose, sitting in their seats and reading or doing work and things like that...but there are so many people on here that are just enjoying the ride, and the aspect of traveling. Jensea and I have been acting like two little kids running around and seeing all the sights, but there are a lot of other people just like us on this train...enjoying the food, the scenery, playing games, and just generally enjoying themselves. At the end of the day, it's interesting to see just how many people are really just like you. I doubt all of them are being transferred to new locations for business purposes...but there's still a lot that we all have in common, I guess.
So...tomorrow morning, we'll be off the train. We still have quite a bit of ground to cover afterwards, but we'll be taking a bus from there. We're still running fine on schedule, so we should be at our destination by the afternoon!
Heh, this entry took me longer to come up with than I thought, so I'm thinking it wound up draining the rest of my energy...I really want to sleep now! @_@
I'll update again tomorrow...it's gonna be a busy day!
