Going Home.

So I took the train home last night. I took the last one for the day. When I got to the valley it was just pitch black out the window.. I couldn’t see anything.. This lady sat in front of me and we started talking about coughs cuz she was sick too. I forgot her name but she was really nice. This lady lived life. Her stories can go on for days!!! Literally!! She was about the same age as my mom and she has two daughters the same age as me and my sister. She really had a lot of stories. In college, she was a basketball groupie and she had a chance to go on a date with Micheal Jordan. She passed cuz she thought he was ugly. If she knew how famous and rich he would get, she prolly would have married him. She ran away for 8 months when she was 25 yrs old to a place called the tenderloin in SF. I never heard about that place before she told me. Its a place where homeless people go and live in a hotel room weeks at a time. And its not the homeless people you think of, they’re doctors and lawyers to drug addicts and everything in between. And she told me the people who helped her out were the drunks! They told her where to go for some free food, where to loiter, and who’s who. She’s currently writing a book about her experiences in the tenderloin and she said she’s gonna have Oprah help her out. This lady kept me entertained the whole time she was on the train.

She said, “Shit happens, its called life. It doesn’t matter how you approach it, as long as you deal with it.”

Update.

I’ve been on winter break since thursday. I could have gone home that day but that’s too early. My last final was really bad. I haven’t gone to this class since I took the midterm around the end of october. I didn’t go to work this week cuz I was sick and they said not to come in.

Thursday: potluck dinner, kickback.

Friday: chilled at the dorms, clubbing.

Saturday: another kickback.

Sunday: the city, and another kickback.

Chrismas shopping fail. Shopping for me win! I always just end up buy stuff for me cuz I know what I want and shopping for others is hard for me. I want to buy the right thing, something that can be useful and not just something that wastes space.
