回复: 兰心儿的登陆流水帐
Post by 兰心儿;783687
找房
出门先奔lansdowne,北门进南门出,过了马路就可以看到430的站牌了。先在lansdowne里找公用电话联系了两个房东,可惜的是650那家已经给租出去了。我跟老公不免一阵紧张,本来符合条件的就这两家,一家已经没希望了,老天保佑另一家一定要合适啊,不然我们什么时候才能找到房子!
在车站可以找到经停公车的运行时间,这是个可以旋转的小圆柱,比如你要看430路的时间,可以把这一面扭到面前。可惜当时我不知道,围着柱子转了一圈才找到430,自己还窃喜能找到时刻表,却看旁边的一个老太太用手一转就能看到另一边的信息。完,露怯了,一看就知道我是新来的了!
430很少,我们等了半个小时车才来。这个车的终点站是metrotown,所以不用担心坐过站。昨天从save on food买的车票叫faresaver,就是18块钱买10张2.25的车票,但只能坐1个区。430要从richmond绕过vancouver到burnaby,属于跨区,所以每人还要多投1块钱。到metrotown以后还要倒另外一趟公车,在这趟车上让我对温哥华公车司机的素质有些失望。去的时候我怕坐过站,就跟司机说到站叫我,谁知他却问我自己会不会读路标,我说会,他说那你自己也看着点。我晕!我是能看路标,但不是因为不确定才让你提醒我的吗!结果还是我自己看到路标下车的,他始终没有提醒我。回程的司机更噎人,车头上写着到metrotown,但我想跟司机确认一下终点站是不是metrotown,毕竟坐错站对我这样的new comer来说是很麻烦的事。他却反问我认不认识车头上的字,我说认识,他说那上面写的什么车就到哪里。我彻底傻掉!所以提醒各位,也不要对这里的司机期望很高,毕竟素质也是参差不齐,也可能不行的都让我碰到了?
幸运的是看房的事很顺利,我们对房子很满意,一房一厅,独立厨房、卫生间,独立出入,包水电上网有线电视,月租700。房东人也不错,于是我们当即付了定金,并约好第二天搬进来,但这样的话就需要多交两天的租金。房东说本来这个按短租的话每天要收50,但看我们有长租的诚意,所以也就按每天30了。真好,明天就可以搬家了,终于让我远离飞机航道了!
------------------------------------------------------------I am a little more depressed than you. When you take a bus in China, if bus is coming, then we get on the bus except the men who want get off is too many. Several days earlier, I wait the bus to go to work. When bus is coming, I forgot that may be someboday want to get off the bus. I just got on the bus but unluckily there is one person want to get off. Before him I have already got on. The driver said to me"What's wrong with you?". I can say nothing, but just said "I am sorry". Usually I regard myself as a man with good manners. But that day I made the mistake. After that, I keep on watching before I get on bus. It's my fault. I apologized.Generally speaking, most drivers are kind. The first time I took a bus to go work and return back home, both the two drivers told me that they will show me where I should get off the bus. Thanks to them.To remind the new comers, when you want get off the bus, and the driver open the door, you should say "Thank you" here. When you get on bus you had better say "Good morning". When you want get off the bus, you should pull the string which will make a ring and let the driver know that you want get off. The seats after the driver is prepared for old men or pregnant women or kids who can't walk and so on. When these people get on the bus, you should give the seats to them. |
