Hi there,

I'm going to be living in Korea for 1 month to 1 year for work (and 1 hour from the GomTV studio via subway, no less~) starting next January and I need to visit the consulate building in Houston, TX.

I'm going to be taking Greyhound to get to Houston because I'm not able to use the family car for the trip due to my family either not caring about helping me + Show Spoiler +
("you're an adult now YOU DO EVERYTHING BY YOURSELF, YOU PUSSY! I HITCHHIKED ACROSS THE COUNTRY WHEN I WAS FIVE AND NOW I work with not as good of a salary compared to most other people in my position BUT STILL")
or being too busy using it for work.

My problem is this:

[image loading]


I have to go from A to B. Do you guys think a taxi would be best, or would there happen to be someone who is awesome and cool enough to help a fellow Starcraft player make the trip from A to B and hopefully back (and if there is anyone that cool, I'd be willing to pay for gas and take them with me to visit the Korean consulate — how many times are you gonna go there in your life, you know?)

If you guys think a Taxi would be the best way to go from A to B (I'm not afraid of taking the walk... its just the time that it would probably take back and forth considering the return trip later that evening... because I'm sure I'd go in the wrong direction at least once and spend some time trying to get back on track)

(and if it helps at all, I only recently made an account but I've been watching the OSL, MSL, TSL1 and 2, as well as Bnet Attack! — I personally liked MBCGame's stream on Matoo-'s old site better — for many years and I've been with the Starcraft community since the 1999 N64 version 4-page spread in an issue of Nintendo Power)

There are very few public services that are unilaterally the same throughout the USA. Don't forget that the USA is almost 235 times larger than your country.

Asking whether or not there are public buses in Houston would be a reasonable question since there very well could be a bus that goes near A and B. I've never been to Houston so I have no idea :p

That's a good idea though — I can look into that

I'm surprised micronesia just didn't google it for you. Your not even 8 miles from this place which is like a 2 hour walk for me.

here goes another link http://www.ridemetro.org/SchedulesMaps/HOV.aspx

Edit: And don't be afraid of asking bus drivers on weather or not its the correct route they are there to help. The 8mile trip on taxi won't be to much money either though...maybe 15-20 bucks tops

I actually saw what they had for myself here and then came to check on the thread and saw your post -- I'm happy that you were looking this up with me.

I think I got it figured out. I'd just need to take bus route #35 and I'd get really close to the place. Then just wait for the ride back.

I think this'll work out. Thanks for the idea guys!


And 8 miles is a 2 hour walk for you!??! What are you, some kind of giant?

I lived 5 miles from my campus in college and it took me an hour and 45 minutes to walk from my home to the campus entrance, much less the actual classrooms (it was a very large campus...).
