Unfortunate Thing Happened on the Way to Work....

GOOD EVENING FROM JUST IN THE DOOR FROM PHILADELPHIA!

I got 5 pages of writing done today! Took me a bit to get myself in order because UNFORTUNATELY somebody else wasn't quite as RESILIENT as I've been. Right after I LEFT OUT and headed to work. I got to the Blue Line and found it was packed! Turns out someone had GOTTEN HIT BY THE SUBWAY A FEW STOPS AHEAD OF US!
O_o?

Now?
The only way that you GET HIT by the subway when you DIDN'T JUMP IN FRONT OF IT, is when you're TOO CLOSE TO IT WHEN IT EITHER COMES IN OR PULLS OFF! And that INITIAL RUSH OF AIR DRAWS YOU IN AND THEN...!?
Well?
You know the rest.

UPenn Student Struck, Killed by SEPTA Train

By Dan Stamm and David Chang

Friends and family are mourning a University of Pennsylvania student who was struck and killed by a SEPTA train Monday morning.

Officials say Ao "Olivia" Kong, 21, was struck by an eastbound Market-Frankford Line subway at the 40th Street Station along Market Street in West Philadelphia around 7 a.m.

Kong did not appear to be pushed nor did it appear she fell onto the tracks, said SEPTA. Police told NBC10 they believe she jumped onto the tracks. The train came to a screeching halt after she was struck.

"The conductor told everyone to move to the front of the train... we heard someone say 'I couldn't stop fast enough," said passenger Anthony Davis.

Davis said he also overheard workers saying their was a body under the train. Kong later died from her injuries.

Kong grew up in Philadelphia and graduated from Central High School before attending the University of Pennsylvania. She was a Finance concentrator in the Wharton School's Cohort Peso. She was also a member of the Phi Gamma Nu business fraternity and the Alpha Phi Omega co-ed service fraternity. She was set to graduate in 2017.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with Olivia's family and friends," wrote Wharton's Vice Dean Lori Rosenkopf. "A gathering of sharing and support will take place today at 5 p.m. in Huntsman Hall Room 250." 

Students are encouraged to call Penn's Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) at 215-898-7021, Wharton Undergraduate Division Advising at 215-898-7608, the University Chaplain's Office at 215-898-8456 or the Student Health Service at 215-746-3535.

SEPTA service was delayed for nearly three hours after the incident but later resumed to normal operations.

And yes. It was HEAVILY DELAYED. I got to work late, but I know this much? This is why I pay attention when on these subway platforms and I also keep an eye out FOR WHO IS BEHIND ME. Because you don't wanna get BUMPED TOO CLOSE OR GET KNOCKED ONTO THE TRACKS.
The amazing part is that it seems that this woman had everything going for her and one moment of carelessness literally cost her her life. I hope that some of the people who have claimed I am TOO SERIOUS over the past few years now see that there is a time and a place to laugh and joke, but always be mindful of your surroundings and PROPER TIME AND PLACE to laugh and joke.
