This past week has been kinda crazy for me. I pulled my first all-nighter last Tuesday evening. I had to drop off my car at 4 in the morning and walk 10 blocks down the Ave. at 4:30 A.M it’s quite peaceful during that time. All that for a quiz and a midterm. I’ve never had to study like this before. It makes me sad to think about the future all-nighters to come. So Thursday comes, (the day before Veterans day) so I decide to go back home. I stopped by Southcenter to return something, but I end up leaving with more clothes in my possession, funny how that works. I also had to print out a digital camera picture. So I pass by the camera store, because I’m actually looking for a different camera store. As I pass by I see darkness. I start heading towards Sears because that’s where I thought the other camera store was, but there isn’t. So I go back to the previous one I had passed by (where the darkness was). So I go in not paying attention to my surroundings. I sit down right in the middle of the store where the digital camera reader thingy is. I do my business and I hear talking behind me. And then the other people leave right as I’m about to pay. As I’m paying, the camera guy says: Guy: That was boyz II men Me: Shut the F up, you’re lying Guy: No I’m not lying, did you see their wrists? Me: Why didn’t you freaking say anything to me? Guy: I don’t know I thought you would recognize them. Me: Man I can’t believe I didn’t see them Moral of the story: Pay attention to darkness. Especially, when you’re by yourself. I eventually found them later on (it was my first time looking around for black males in the mall, so I’m not very good at it) and I took a picture on my gay razor phone. You can see it if you don’t believe me. |
