Re: Random Thought Thread
Seeing The Legend's avatar made me realize how Francis didn't get enough credit for being a teammate. As you can see, after serving up that facial on Dwight, he shoves Kobe. Same thing with Stoudemire after he dunked on Yao. </p>
Right now I'm listening to "Let it Flow" by Toni Braxton and it brought back some old memories. It's crazy what old memories can mean (made me a little sad). </p>
Chinese food here is so crappy and even worse some clowns had the nerve to put me on hold when I was ordering. IMO, that's one of the most disrespectful things you can do to a customer - who is making you richer. I think I'm going to have them make like $300 worth of food and deliver it to me and have them wait and afterwards say, "Nah, I'm not hungry anymore."</p>
What's worse is when the delivery guy gets an attitude with you AFTER you give them a decent tip. I remember ordering my food and it cost $3.75 and I gave the dude $5, so he keeps $1.25. I'm not good at math but I know that's more than 25% of what my meal was worth and this clown has the nerve to roll his eyes. I took note of who he was. So the next time he came I ordered with a bunch of friends and the food came out to like $20. He was probably getting gassed and thought he could get like a $5 tip. I handed him a $20 and afterwards said "You want a tip?" he said yeah while smiling. I said "don't drink and drive." He walked away pissed with everyone laughing at him. I felt kinda bad but hopefully he learned a valuable lesson.</p>
Yesterday was my first day working on campus. I do public safety which is pretty much letting people in and out of buildings. It's a laidbak Job for the most part and I get to study while working, so that's cool.</p>
So far I've only met two people from Harlem out of the thousands of students in this school. I was listening to Mos Def and Kweli "Thieves in the Nights" and just realized I haven't been back in Harlem in what seems like a while (just 2 weeks). The part where they say "We take the Blackstar line, ride on home" I was thinking I need to take the A-train line and ride on home, lol. One of my friends called me asking if I was available to play ball and then he said "Ooooh I forgot you're in school!" Made me realize I took for granted all those times when I was free to do whatever at home. My roomates went home this weekend, maybe I shoul've too. Btw, my roomates are cool so far. One is a Yankees fan too (the other one is Mets, but at least it's not Red Sox or anything, lol) and we saw A-Rod going nuts yesterday. Too bad they don't watch the Knicks. But I realize there are some people I could be living with that are slobs, psycho's, etc. For example, I don't know what I would do if I was rooming with that one guy who was blowing up my Facebook page with "Ur soo cool Mike!" and saying all my black friends look like Borat.</p>
There's this one guy who I know that said he was going to the bathroom and saw a long strand of hair on the toilet seat (all his roomates have short hair) and said "Oh, hell no!" So I'm glad I don't have to deal with that. We have a stack of toilet tissue, a bottle of fantastic, and some air frashner - everyone knows what to do with it. I'm been staring at two huge jars of whey protein that my roomate is using. I was thinking about bulking up too. Do I use it, or is it really bad for you (I remember someone (was it M Two One?) said it was considered 'performance enhancers' in some other countries?). </p>
I just realized I have mad random thoughts today. Seems like it was all inside and I needed to get them out. Random Thought Thread ftw! It's funny, a month ago I didn't even know what ftw meant either. </p>
