After seeing some behavior on a subway I made a few notes to myself.

First, don't text when train is pulling into a station. A young man was really upset and jumping up and down when he realized that the doors just closed and aren't opening. :)

Second, be patient with people and just do your own thing. I don't want to be a teacher with a dozen of 7-8 year old children on the crowded subway train. The teacher looked so stressed and intense. Boys were sitting and talking, girls jumping and twisting. Children always amaze me so I like watching them. For some reason whole group was focused on one girl, and told her to sit down and not try to stand up. Everybody told her so, her teacher, her friends, and not just once, but they were telling that to her every few minutes, and she was so patient, and just behaved absolutely normally. No adult would be able to tolerate such annoying attention for that long. There wasn't enough context for me to figure out why people were warning her all the time, she looked like a regular cute girl.

Third, when asked for directions never talk too much. The cute guy was on the train, and asked me what station he needs to get to MIT, and I told him that it is the next one. He called somebody who was supposed to pick him up near it. Suddenly all women around started talking and in a few seconds there was so much info. For a example one girl told him that the street that he was talking about with his phone opponent is really really long and going to far parts of the city. The guy just picked up his bag and walked to the door, but girls kept talking and talking. Women do sometime talk too much.

Have a nice weekend.
