This thing seems to be rather abandoned...
I woke up early in vain today. I went to my 8 am class and no one was there. Evidently, the Professor had cancelled the class. I guess he told the class that the other day when I was just walking in--late as usual. Oh well, I guess I'll just study for my Calculus Test in the interim.
On a rather bizarre note, yesterday he and I were spectators of fat Boston Common squirrels carrying on their daily routine of gathering food from the surroundings (aka garbage bins) and from ridiculously obsequious passers-by who would do absolutely anything to get the fatties to stop and be fed by them--even to the point of oreo cookie sharing!
One of the fatties, whose identity shall remain anonymous, jimmied right smack in front of us. It looked as if it were disgusted to see us sitting on that bench seemingly spying on him go.. It was also probably.. just probably.. insulted that I had kept calling him and the rest of the Boston Common squirrel population a fatty so he took a leak there.. the same way as how humans would spit at the sight of a person he doesn't like.(But seriously! Haven't you seen the size of those things??!??)
We have been sitting on that bench for quite some time with the "squirrels" on plain view. Intrigued we decided to feed them. He pulled out his bag of oreos.. and took just one to see how the squirrels would like it. I took a small piece and lowered my arm so that the squirrels would be able to reach it. One came along and went for the cookie. But it rejected it! Ahh.. So it was his turn. A squirrel came by and it ATE the oreo that he handed it. Ahhh.. "It [the other squirrel] was too good for the Oreo", he commented. Maybe he was right.. However, I think the squirrel didn't eat the oreo I gave because I had kept on calling them fat.. Ahh. Anyway.. so he was feeding this one squirrel.. then another squirrel came running towards him (the food) and buttheaded headbutted the squirrel that he was currently feeding. Not only are Boston Common squirrels fat, they are down-right VICIOUS!!!
Lastly, there was also one squirrel who was looking through the trash bin for food. Initially, we saw it just walking along the rim of the can. We thought it was just standing on the rim for no reason and talked about what might happen if it actually fell in the bin. Then we saw it fall. We didn't think it would be able to come out cuz we thought that the bin wasn't even half empty, and I didn't think the squirrel could make it cuz of its weight also. So I was thinking, "maybe we should get it". Then next thing we knew, the squirrel jumped right back out with an apple in its mouth, and scurried towards the tree and climbed it protecting its claim. Wow.
That's the end of the Fat Boston Common Squirrel Story.
Maybe next time we should observe Fat Boston Common Pigeons.  |
