Campus Shuttle Surfing

From time to time I have been known to ride the campus shuttle from the parking lot and I usually get the chance to play a little private sport that I enjoy: shuttle surfing. Because the campus bus is nearly always PACKED, I have to stand in the isle. Now, these shuttle drivers are not known from driving smoothly at all - i personally think that they enjoy watching the people in the isle fall all over each other as they brake HARD and then hit the gas with as much force. This is where my hobby birthed: keeping my equilibrium admist the chaotic movement of the shuttle. I adopt a slightly spread out leg stance and bend my knees. As the shuttle lurches and jolts, I focus on smoothing out the impact on my body with my balance and in my knees and legs. I've actually come to enjoy the meditative feeling that comes from floating on such an UNDULATING vehicle. ::sigh:: I shall miss my shuttle surfing hobby.
