I just thought I’d point some of the interesting people I came across on my epic trek to chemistry this morning.

Read-walker girl: I’m not sure if read-walker girl actually qualifies because it’s unclear whether she is a regular person or super human. Regardless, she is quite the anomaly as she is walking to class and reading a book at the same time. Not only is she walking, she’s sort of speed walking without being clumsy or anything. Now it’s quite apparent that what she’s really trying to do is insult my slow moving, clumsy, half-asleep self as I try to make it to class…I don’t even know if my fly is zipped. Look read-walker girl, if it was up to me I’d be reading my textbook while walking to class to prepare for lecture, but I can’t. God has blessed each of us differently and he chose not to give me multi-tasking skills. Instead, I excel at such activities as sleeping, sleeping in, and napping.

Loud talker girl: I’m not busting on women, but the next person I notice as I continue to walk to class happens to also be female. There are actually two of them: her and her friend who must be an apprentice in training as she is loud, but not quite loud enough to warrant a special title. Anyway the special thing about loud talker girl is that I am literally 40 feet ahead of her and I can clearly hear every word she says…and I’m not even a good listener – ask my girlfriend. I quickly learned that she recently broke up with her boyfriend and it’s OK because it was her idea, but I continue to suspect that there was more to it than that. Maybe he went deaf. Maybe he killed himself because he couldn’t bear to hear more of her loud mindless dribble. Who knows.

Loud talker guy: This is the brother of loud talker girl I believe. As I’m waiting for the lecture to begin, I hear a horrible mutant laughing sound. Alarmed, I look around but quickly relax when I realize it’s just loud talker guy making noise. Apparently one of his buddies told a joke. All laughed however only one has malformed vocal cords. As the conversation continued it dawned on me that it seemed as though all were in a glass box except loud guy. I could see everyone’s mouth moving but I could only hear such important conversation tidbits as “That party…” and “Beer is cool because…” from loud talker guy. Loud talker guy eventually quiets down about a minute after the lecture starts, but his obnoxious voice still haunts my thoughts.

After class as I was walking I also noticed motorcycle guy who was revving his bike as he is stopped at a crosswalk waiting for people to cross. Now I know that it sucks to stop at a crosswalk waiting for pedestrians to trot along, but the loud VROOOOOOMMM is kind of annoying. On the bright side, if he goes and drives into a truck or something he probably won’t have to wait on pedestrians any longer. That’s really it. I’m not faulting these people except for motorcycle guy because I know I piss people off too as I could be considered friend with an intermittent boring blog. Of course it's ok because I'm super awesome.
