My New Skirt
by What???..You thought this journal was really about me & my skirt wearing, DIDN'T you?!? What do you people take me for a homo or something?...I don't wear skirts...anymore....
Now, for the real reason I've decided to go a'journalin' today....
Last night..Me & Forreste were supposed to meet up w/somebody to go see some band called Aerial Love Child or something...We get on the path train to the city..& the dude we were supposed to meet bails out..So we're like "Aiight, let's just go into the city & do whatever"...*
*Sidenote: A Klingon was sitting accross from us on the train ride into NY..I'm not kidding...He paid close attention to me & forreste's convorsation...Possibly, a young Klingon doing research for a college essay on human social interaction?...I dunno...Maybe...
So we get into the city..and..The antics commenced...We made fun of bums...We laughed @ the gays & their flagerant homosexuality...Went to times square...Oo'd & Ah'd...Went to that GIGANTIC Virgin Megastore...Pretended we were a poor couple who couldn't afford to go clubbin', and proceeded to dance in aisles...More antics followed...
Then - On the ride home...A homeless person comes on the train, and makes a public address to everybody on the train about how the homeless shelter isn't getting the support it needs - and most people don't care about the homeless, because they're not in their shoes - but that anybody could become homeless - due to thier house burning down, or a number of factors...he had a clipboard from the shelter in his hand, and part of what he was saying was obviously from a script he had memorized - so it didn't seem to be a scam or anything..Me & forreste got darn near teary eyed - it was like, really depressing/touching/sad..So..we donated...While everybody else looked on in apathy...That annoyed me...This system sux
Hooray for donating to the less fortunate
The End

well bry im very proud of my sister and u. however frestie really needs money i hope u didnt let her give 2 much...jk jk **golf clap** i approve of ur kindness
aww...you helped the homeless attain one more drink then they could have without ur support..i too support your endeavors..bravo
it was really upsetting. i gave 2 dollars and kept 2 dollars for myself. i wish i had more to give. the thing that pushed me over the edge is when he said "you dont know what led people to be homeless. it could have been an accident, a fire..."
the same guy is ALWAYS on the path
i wonder if it's the same guy who offered to share his half eaten candy bar w/ us for a dollar
I was in downtown Chicago this past weekend, and I saw some pretty sad looking homeless individuals as well. I didn't give them any money, but now I wish I had. I feel bad when I see stuff like that. And yes, this system does suck. But two gold stars for you guys!!!! :):)
this one homeless guy came up to us and said "i'm not going to yank your chain, so i'm just letting you know, i need money for booze" we cracked up and gave him a few bucks....hey you can't hold a brotha down for being honest....LOL
i hate it when people cancel plans on you when you've already done so much to try and make it.
does the title have something to do with the hey arnold conversation?
aerial love feed hahaha (sidenote: little asian markets are scary...what was that an octopus?!)
yo, that's the nastiest thing i've ever seen in my life..we have to go back&take a picture..& post it in here..it was like, ghetto pirrana-octopus-meat...that's the best way i can describe it, haha
i was suprised there weren't flies on it cus it looked like a pile of roadkill guts
he was definitely an egyptian clingon in leather pants. he also shook his hair like fabio when he took it out of the pony tail.
I wanted to talk to him...next time..i will engage him in convorsation...he shouldn't be that hard to find...he's most likely the only klingon in NY
my number one advice to bryan for the night: shhh there might be a pedophile on the train
hahaha, & i was like "yeah, we don't want to offend the pedophiles"...we mad an old lady laugh
yea and she gave me the elbow nudge. she also liked when i made you sit on my lap because there were no seats.
(was that the guy from the mars volta??)
i dunno, but i've seen him somewhere in some cd liner note picture...either mars volta or @ the drive in
so there i am on a sunday morning taking a ride through town. but whats unusual about today is that.. no one in town is wearing pants.. all they are wearing are chaps. and i'm like hmm... i have chapped lips. that certainled doesn't mean i wear chaps on my lips does it.
