travelling is synonymous to drinking sea water for me

Now that university is resuming in less than a week, I am scared at the thought of travelling yet again. It is not easy to sit in the public bus for 2 hours and sometimes with the traffic jam much more. I hate the very idea of it.
This adds up to why i don't like going to the university. Well, does someone has any tips of how to like travelling, i mean sitting in this noisy bus for 4 hours (the return tripas well). What can one do to make it enjoyable and less hectic? 
I always carry my phone with me for music but this also does not work to the extent of making me fond of travelling. I keep on nagging my parents, why can't we live in the city where you have all the facilities and everything is near. As a result, i will not be tired with these boring and unnecessary long journeys.
Please help me with tips and advice. I'll be very thankful to you all.
Love
from me... :)
