the hustle December 17th, 2009

It’s not a very people-crowded shot, especially for the Chinatown Metro which is always among the busiest stations in the system, but still, it somehow reminds me of the hustle-bustle of the commute and of course the holidays. Everyone is running around like crazy chickens in a hurry to get to fancy parties and huge sales. Thankfully, I’ve just about finished all of my Christmas shopping in the past few days, and I’m only waiting for a few more Amazon packages to show up at my desk. I suspect though, that a lot of people out there (read: men), still have yet to begin. I don’t know what it is with those that can wait until the last second to shop. Maybe they just operate well under pressure, or maybe they just don’t feel the pressure at all. At the risk of sounding sexist, biased, whatever, I just don’t think men stress out and worry about gifts. They pick up something and go with it. Women are all like, “What if they doesn’t like this color sweater?” and then let the over-analyzing continue. Am I wrong? Wait, I thought I was talking about the Chinatown Metro…

It is hard to tell but the handrails still look good to go for a slide! My hope is Metro does/has not changed them until I get a chance to personally confirm this!
