Matt's got a full plate this week in the midst of preparing for classes and beginning to submit application info to schools all over the U.S., but I'm sure he'd want to inform y'all of the funny incident on the metro this morning. . .here's my go at it (minus the rousing narrative and the frequent exaggerations).
We have to make a metro line change at a station half way on our trip to the school. We were the last ones stepping in the cabin at the line change, where we had to literally push our way through the crowd to make it on the train. As the doors closed we felt a slight breeze at our backs and turned around to notice Matt’s umbrella stuck in the door. Here is some Matt-like exaggeration. . .the umbrella left a gap in the doors to the metro so wide that two people could easily of fallen through, especially with the over 100 mph speeds of the metro—there was a point there where we were in actual fear of our lives. Matt valiantly put his own life in danger, grabbed the umbrella with two hands, and with the strength of 10 men, pulled the umbrella out of the locked doors.
It was a fun way to start our day. Which brings up something. . .if you really don’t need something in life (such as an umbrella), don’t lug it around. . .or at least don’t let it stick out of your bag in the metro.
