Henry Madden Library

I'm sitting in Starbucks in our library. Yes Fresno State's massive library has a Starbucks. So dumb. Convenient, annoying. Aesthetically, it's ugly. It creates even more disharmony on campus. For being architecturally based on the Native Basket Weavers, it sure looks like a whole lot of cement, superfluous glass and L.E.D walls. I mean really? Is that necessary? We waited 4 years for this? Not impressed. Unfortunately, us students are in dire need of a library so this is what we get.

oK SO, I've been trying to do anything to stay focused, well maybe not ANYTHING but some things to focus on my studies. But it's not helping. I keep thinking about climbing, and my comp this saturday, and Tony. I'm so worried about him. I fear he's the kinda of guy who doesn't know how to express himself when he's sad or hurting and that may be a problem when you have 2 uncles pass a way within a week of each other.

So, sitting here thinking about climbing, agonizing over my frustrations of recovering from my second sprained ankle, people watching, invading their privacy from the comfort of my bay windows in Starbucks, I saw a blind man. It got me thinking how useless I, myself would be if I didn't have my sight. I wouldn't be able to climb, to ride, to drive. I have so much respect for the blind, who live their lives fully, as if they had no disability. I feel like I should write more about this. What would I do If I couldn't climb? I'd be severely depressed.

skinny jeans

So it's fair to say that I lead a very active lifestyle. I exercise everyday, sometimes twice. Rock climbing, swimming, running, you name it. But every once in a while I like to be a tad bit gluttunous and overindulge in something so unhealthy and surely diabetes inducing it would make willy wonka wanna shut down his factory. So today was one of those days. Edgar, Eugene and I decided to be brainiacs and take advantage of the $3.99 medium pizza special and the wretched hungry howie's in tower. Little did we know it would not feel so great post-gorge-session. So we took our pizzas, our horchata, garlic bread and headed over to the patio at starbucks where there three asian girls were sitting at one of the tables. Now, don't get me wrong I love my peoples but we all know that face you give to someone of the same cultural background. That "mmm..." face, when you know they shouldn't be doing something and you disapprove. Well these girls, I must describe, were quite hefty to say the least and they gave us that face and started talking shit because we were indulging in that delicious italian creation. But the fact was that these girls were not only severely overwieght they were smoking! Crying out loud it's like (as edgar put it) a toothless person for making fun of someone with crooked teeth. It's just damn hypocrtical.

Well, we didn't care. We gorged ourselves on our food, and strutted away in our skinny jeans.

cigarettes and chocolate milk

i've got to admit, i've drank at work before, but today was baaaaad. lol. so worth it though.


i was definitely drunk at work today.
it got to the point that me and jacob were so pissed off that we decided to just say fuck it
kit is a dumbass
renee is a dumbass
i hate starbucks
except nights like these when i have a kick ass lead.

i love jacob.
and jacob's bro daniel.

lol

dropped all my pennies, and my dimes. what a hoot.
i came to the sad realization that our close was going to be better than half the fuckin closes at the entire store. lol. AND it was friday night, we got slammed making $350 in one half hour. that's something to the tune of $10.5 a minute.

3 beers, one smirnoff, 4 cigars, 1 cig.
oh yeah. i'm definitely due for a wellness blog tomorrow. lol

eugey broke up with eddie today. i am very proud of him. he needs to take care of himself first not worry about. that relationship wasn't all bad, i have to admit it made euge realize what he wants, and what he needs in life. and i hope that it does the same for eddie. i just want the best for him, and i know he's going to hurt right now, but i know in my heart that he's going to grow from this, and be better for it.

I wish there was just one universal translation dammit. Mmmmk.... I think I'm going to go take a shower, put on some wicker park and do my thang.

Late late bloggy, have a good night. Life is swell I am enjoying the season. Lounging around underneath the fall trees at school, reading and examining the simplicity of leaves in the treees and at the same time their ever so complicated connections.

my feet are sore, 8 hr shit ain't cool yo. not cool. at all.
