It was a cold winter around February, and I was in my winter vacation. I was looking forward to be a junior in March, while I was taking a winter school. At that time, I thought that I was such a diligent student in the winter school, and I had no doubt about it because I have never late for school. I have always used public transportation to go to school, and I loved it because it was quite accurate time table. However, soon I realize that there's nothing perfect every time, and my attitude about public transportation was greatly changed from that time.
It was my mid-term day of the winter school and the heavy snows were blowing outside. During the night, the snows are piled up on the ground thickly. Because I stayed all night to study three subjects, I was really tired when I was going to the Bucheon station by bus. It takes 10 to 15 minutes to go to the station, but it was delayed because of the heavy snow. It had been more than 20 minutes and the passengers were getting angry more and more. When I thought it will be better to go to the station by walk, the bus made a sudden stop with a loud noise of friction. Then, the bus driver said that the passengers have to get off from the bus and walk to the station. I was really worried that I will be late for the test. After I walked to the station, I was surprised that really many people were in stuck in the station platform. I could not take the subway more than 5 times because there are too many people. Because I leaved my house earlier than usual, I thought I could arrive on time. However, while I was in the subway, I found that two class was canceled because of the text message arrived. The last test was on 5 o'clock, so I had to wait for more than 6 hours.
From that day, I never leave my house just in time. Although it was because of the heavy snow, now I cannot believe the accuracy of the public transportation. Now I'm leaving my house more than 30 minutes earlier than usual time, so I'm not worry about the time anymore. The incident of that day taught me that there's no perfect transportation about the time in the world.

It takes 10 to 15 minutes to go to the station in average, but it was delayed on that day. It had been more than 20 minutes. When I thought it will be better to go to the station by walk, the bus made a sudden stop with a loud noise of friction. Then, the bus driver said that all of the passengers have to get off from the bus and walk to the station. I was really worried that I would be late for the test. Anyway I walked to the station, and I was surprised that really many people were in stuck in the station platform. I could not take the subway more than 5 times because the subway could not accept the bunch of people at once. Because I leaved my house earlier than usual, I thought that I could go to the school on time. However, while I was in the subway, I found that two class was canceled because of the text message arrived. The last test was on 5 o'clock, so I had to wait for more than 6 hours in the school.
