Usually when I have to go to school, I take the MTR in Hong Kong, which is a kind of train. One time that made me feel memorable was when I traveled from my home to the university, which is from Shag Moon to Shihong, the station for the NNM University. Usually, I do some revision on the train to save time, as my travel time from home to school is around one hour and fifteen minutes. It's really efficient for me to do revision on the train. However, at that time, I wasn't feeling well, so I chose to take a nap on the train instead of doing revision. I was listening to music while falling asleep on the seats when suddenly an auntie woke me up and said, "Hey girl, you should give your seat to the one who needs it." I think she meant herself, and I felt ashamed because I actually had this need as well. I would say I'm quite shy and not really talkative, so I just gave her the seat instead of saying that I wasn't feeling well too. I gave her the seat, and luckily, I still remembered I was standing near the door, just facing the floor and not feeling well. Then, a man gave his seat to me and said, "You look like you're not feeling well," so I was so thankful to him. Thank you.
