If I may ask.
Why do you need to use a bus anyway.
I find it easier to just walk everywere.
Yeah I would but it's kind of far away.
And 7 is about the earliest time I can get up.

Gotta say, I feel for you bro. The other day Steven Colbert said that he had to ride the bus because cars with less then 3 people were not being allowed into new York. It was awful, he had to go on a public bus, with the actual public on it, no matter how many times he pulled the overhead cable the stewardess never came, and it didn't even have a drink cart. He said that he felt like Vigo Mortenson's character in "The Road".

In UK you can check online timetables even plan entire journey from front door. Do that then when on bus double check with driver - even sit close to them and ask them to let you know when near your stop. Most drivers will help - though if in doubt ask woman pensioner they always know.
For what it worth I hate buses prefer trains as I have no sense of direction.

Well thanks for all the help, jeez can't ask anything anymore.
It is the internet so I probably should have lowered my expectations.
Yes, I'm sure everyone here was going to genuinely believe you were having a serious panic attack about how to ride the bus. I was riding buses on my own at 10 years old.
But, I'll humor you.
1. Wait at the stop nearest to your house and make sure you are getting on the right bus by checking the bus route map.
2. When it arrives, get on.
3. Pay the driver.
4. Sit down in a seat. The back is the coolest place and totally where it's at. The front is better if you want to get off without falling over and looking silly.
5. When you come to the place you are heading (school, work, shops, doctors etc) you press the bell in plenty of time.
6. The bus stops and you get off.
Don't forget to thank the driver and have a nice day!
As you go through life I think you'll find out that even if you sit at the back, you're using a bus meaning you're a loser.

Says the guy who has to use the bus because he's too poor for a car and no one wants to take him..... Fail, loser! Haha

Step 1: make sure you know what bus to take to get to your destination.
Step 2: make sure you know how often and at what times the buss arrives at that stop.
Step 3: Get on the bus and pay your fare.
Step 4: Tell the bus driver you have never taken a bus and tell him where you need to get off.
Step 5: Sit at the front of the bus near the driver.
Step 6: there should be a pull cable that rings a bell that lets the bus driver know you want out at the next stop.
Step 7: Thank the bus driver for his help.
Step 8: Walk to your final destination.

I don't know why, but the trains just seem...classier? Not sure. I rode buses a lot in college/high school. They go from being really nice, to really gross. I was on one that smelled like a herd of humans had peed all over it, I was so sick I almost got off to wait for another bus. I don't know how I made it to my stop. My bus rides were all 45+ minutes long, not counting the wait.
They were always late too.
Bus systems here stink.
Pros though, you get some hilarious stories to tell your friends. Weird/hilarious/scary stuff happens on buses.
ON TOPIC:
Have fun on your first bus ride! Don't be nervous, you'll get the hang of it, and don't be afraid to ask fellow passengers how things work.

Asepsis Glasgow underground has better class of weird. Me and mate where hungover after drinking with some Germans I got on train, it started and I fell into mans lap - he squeeked like a 3 year old. I was finally part of someones met a weirdo story.
nothing that hilarious happened here, but I did have a scare with this lady who was seriously tripping out and talking to herself/staring out the window. It was only freaky cause it was only the driver, me and her on the bus.
