ahh yes. for those who havent heard the crazy story about yesterday's trip to monroevile, i shall divulge the details. for a quick summary of the situation, go 2 tony's xanga.

so due to chris's desire for returning his zelda game, we(as in chris, jeff, frank, tony, and i) decided to accompany him to monroeville(it was my 1st time). we all went(except for chris) under the assumption that we would not be buying anything, but it ended up that none of us left empty handed. chris and tony again bought matching pants(altho tony got blue ones), and just as they were checking out i happened to find a pair of gray dress slacks for 10 bucks @ gap. 10 bucks! originally 58. what a bargain. plus my old ones dont fit as well cuz, well, as we all know i'm getting chunkier. which reminds me how horrible i was this week, w/ a lot of slacking on the working out and eating like a horse. but that's another topic entirely. frank got a candle to alleviate the smell of his room, and jeff bought some bowls and a skillet.

anyways, so we sit outside on the bench waiting 4 the 67A to show up, and it begins to rain. we head inside where frank and tony play space impact on the cells to keep themselves bz. i defriend some high schoolers that are soon going to the prom. the girl is like 5'9 maybe, and the guy is like 5'0, if he's lucky. haha it's pretty funny. anyways, the girl tells me that the bus wont show up for another hour and a half, which i was quite unaware of. then she continues to tell me that the bus will only take us to wilkensburg, and not to oakland. we have to switch buses and take the EBL or the 71C. good news eh? luckily we only waited for the bus for like...2 hours. so we FINALLY get on this bus, which is full. as in every seat was taken full, no 1 really standing. not to be racist or anything, but we were the only nonblack ppl on this bus minus this 1 sketchy white guy. maybe 5 minutes into the ride i turn to look @ a shuffling to my left, and see these guys fighting on the bus(we were sitting close 2 the front). the guys work their way closer to the front of the bus, they fell on top of jeff as they attempt to punch each other. they manage to pull themselves off jeff and get to the front of the bus where one guy is somehow on the floor somewhat injured. this grown man tries to break up the 2, but the unhurt guy pushes him 2 the floor. he then harasses the bus driver to open the door, which he does not do, b/c he's not allowed to. instead he calls the cops, which soon show up in full force. NINE freaking cop cars surround our poor bus while we're stuck on there for a good 45 minutes. during this entire time there's this crazy lady who's going on and on about the fight, how it's black on black and how her ankle got hurt and how her 3 year old son could've been hurt, and if it wasnt for him she would've kicked their asses. now, i'm making this sound a LOT better than it really was b/c this psycho lady must've used the word fuck for every other word. i think it requires some type of skill or pratice to say it that many times and have it all make sense(i tried, it didnt work). this lady was crazzzzy ok? she talked about a lot of other extraneous stuff, but it's kinda beside the point.
anyways, the bus driver tried to get us to fill out witness cards, but every1 on the bus refused. heh.

yea. so from my inquiries, i've vaguely pieced together what happened. guy A stood up and went to go sit next to guy B, and they started to talk @ the back @ the bus. guy A started talking shit to guy B, and they started fighting. i THINK guy A had a brother, a younger one who was also involved, but managed to not get in trouble and remained on the bus, by zipping up his jacket. then they stood up and started taking off their jackets(chris saw this part and thought they were trading jackets. hahahaha). then yea, u know the rest. that's about it.

so anyways, we finally make it back to campus as we all make a mad rush to the toilets of jeff and tony. i had been needing to go pee since we 1st started waiting 4 the bus. but i didnt wanna take the chance of missing the bus, so we waited. stupid waiting. ahh yes. what a great feeling it is to empty your bladder after it has been under much strain.

yup. that's pretty much it. i really should b studying 4 my multivariate exam tomorrow. wish me luck!!!


TWICE baby ;)
