I was at the bus stop outside a friend's flat, after having some Jordanian food she cooked specially for me, and I was waiting for the bus to go home. I could see the bus a 100 years away, stopped at the red light, so it was going to be about a minute's wait for me. At the same time, I looked up at the bus sign post and saw a yellow poster stuck over it that said, "This bus stop will not be in operation from 2 June onwards."
-_-
The next bus stop was supposed to be a 100 yards ahead of the bus stop I stood at. I looked over at the other guy who stood there waiting for the same bus and I asked him in a slightly nervous tone whether he thought the bus would stop for us or not. I was gearing myself up to run for the other bus stop at that point.
Guy: Err... I think the bus will stop for us.
Me: Are you sure!?! But what if it doesn't!?!
Guy: I'm pretty sure it will. It should.
Me: Ok, if you're so sure, you wave and make sure it stops...
Guy: Err... you know, I think you should wave...
*Pause*
Me: I think you're right. *Waves hand femininely*
Bus stops.
That's strategic thinking for you.

An accounting of everything. That I may never forget. Especially my passport.
