Spilled Milk

So today, first day of classes, I went to go eat lunch.
I was sitting there at the table conversing with my lunchmates, when at the table in front of us
a guy accidental spills his full glass of milk. (not bad right)
The milk runs all over the table. He takes a couple of napkins, I presume he's going to clean it up.
Couple of moments later, the mess it still on the table and the guy is like looking around all suspiciously before taking his belonging and food and moving to another table: WITHOUT CLEANING UP TH MILK! He just leaves that nasty milk that to drip and drop on the floor; I guess hoping for someone else to clean up.

My reaction: WTF?!!!!

Now i know people was raised differently than me, and you know some people mama's may have cleant up after them or they may have had a maid or something. But still I think that is NO excuse for not cleaning up your mess especially in a dining hall, like that's a common area, gee. I mean what is going through yo mind for you not to clean up the milk you just wasted. I bet you would clean it up if it was in your room. so why can't you clean it up in a place where you're not the only who uses it. Like that just ridiculous and no home training. I literally wanted to tell dude, Clean Up Yo' Mess! Like I saw you do it too!

I just don't understand, I mean where I come from you clean up your messes, especially if you a grown ass man, like you wipe yo ass you should be able to clean up some milk. I feel like even more in my house, you don't even want nobody to know you made a mess, so like immediately you break something on spill something you clean it up. It's just natural to me....

Well then I was thinking maybe he had some place to go, you know he was in a hurry. But I don't think he was cuz he took at least 30 mins to eat, so he could have used 5-7 of those to clean up that mess. And even if you didn't have time, you can tell somebody , "oh man I accidentally spilled my milk all over this table, can we somebody come clean it up?". Instead leaving it for someone else to clean up when they see it. And that even inconveniences other people, because people can't sit there, and you know lunch time it be crowded.....

ohkay I'm gonna stop there. I just had to rant about this real quick...
I just don't understand how people could do that. Like yo house is yo house, i don't really care if it look a mess, but in public places you should at least try to clean your messes up or get someone else to.

Like seriously dude. NO HOME TRAINING...

All That.

Yes, I'm talking about the All that,

(what is up with this logo, btw, its so weird...
it seriously looks like somebody made this on Microsoft paint just saying)

the show that usta appear on Nickoloden
(you 90's kids know what I'm talking about)

I was simply brought down memory lane (it's a short street, about two blocks, and its rather narrow)
by even the theme song of this iconic television show.

That's by the one and only TLC. (R.I.P. Left Eye)...so so 1990s....it ridic...

You can check some episodes of All that, here, here, here, I don't know how long they will be there, you know Youtube be on straight games...
Episodes includes some of my favorite skits:

RepairMan (man, man, man)
SuperDude (that's where I learned what lactose intolerant meant, which I always thought was lactose and tolerance, anywayz)
Good Burger
Cooking with Randy and Mandy
Everyday French with Pierre Escargot (Question: is he actually reading French?)
Ear Boy (could never forget Pizza Face...)
Loud Librarian
Vital Information (which is really REALLY stupid now)
Lemonade Stand Girl

I just remember All That being the greatest and funniest show ever, and I wished I had understood the jokes more when I was little (I feel like I didn't notice anything when I was little...). but rewatching it, it's actually funny, not like rolling around on the floor laughing, but I definitely see the humor. and At least from what I saw, Kenan Thompson was in a whole lot of skits, I don't know how old he was during the show, but that was talent for him to digg into is funnyness at such young age. quite amazing from my perspective (I guess that why he's on SNL to this very day).

I began to wonder how this show like shaped us as a generation. like in the show, it really hits at some social issues, and general things that anybody would know (look at me getting all teacher-y). Like the cooking with mandy and randy, like the wanted to put cholocate on everything. or skits that came later like Ask Ashley...or something...

Also watching this, I begin to wonder if kids of today's generation be different if All That (or a similar show) still exist. this was just teenaged version of SNL basically. And like what r they missing out on? Who would be the funny kids of today's entertainment world? Idk. Pretty interesting.

But I can say the show was definitely one of a kind. it just brings me back to a world when life was carefree, and troubles were about a big ear of corn...

And that's ALL THAT I wrote/typed.

A Day at a Dentist

Today, I went to the dentist for a check up, I hadn't been in over a year,
cuz of school and stuff. (as a result I now have 3 cavities and my teeth hurt like crap, stupid dentist!)

anywayz
strangely, people just talking to me that I don't even know.
(and yes they were white, my mom says it's because barack OBAMA is president..but idunno..)

they just made me wanna say: "B!%^#, I don't know your life!"
(Total inside joke: check out clip here)

the first person, a woman, was talking on her phone all loud and stuff (i ain't wanna hear that),
and then she got off and was like "I don't like when people talk on their cellphones all loud..blah blah blah.. sorry..yada yada"
"B!%^#, I don't know your life!"



and then when she was leaving she was like "I like the stitching on your pants" ( I was wearing my pants
with pants on them, which I always get complements/comments on....i mean everytime I wear them). I am just like why are you talking to me lady, I really don't care if  you like my pants.

and then this old man (who was apparently over 70, he definitely didn't look like it) was having his teeth pulled.  he just talking to me about how people don't like to come to the denstist, and the weather, and how much I should take care of my teeth, and blah blah blah. and I just wanted to be like "I Don't know you! why r you talking to me!!! B!%^#, I don't know your life!"

and then I finally get to the dentist chair, and the hygentist lady hurt the mess outta my teeth. and she just talking to me  ( getting all up in my business..). and I'm like "We can't have conversation if you sticking stuff in my mouth and stuff" (that sounds nasty...hahaha)

I don't know if anybody got an answer to this but why these people was talking to me? Was they just being nice, and why??? Why they had to be so interested in telling me they business...cuz I really didn't care
I mean, I don't know them at all! I think it was just annoying to me cuz I was up so early (10 am) and didn't want to be bothered.

some other interesting things from today dentist visit:
my dentist actually went to the Dental school at NU before they closed it.
and the other guy dentist actually went to undegrad at NU so that was really kool.
Northwestern's all around...so awesome...

yeah interesting day at the dentist.
maybe I should go more often.

hello AGAIN world

this is ya biz-oy.
so um.
still at NU, final weeks, it's fun! 'cept its not.
I kinda I have a lot to update about. but um
I really don't feel like talking about alot stuff.
oh wait i do...
I currently have that teach ed paper done.
and i basically finished my music tech project, gotta polish it up a lil bit
what's left is I just have to write my comp lit paper, which technically has not page limit.
I'm shoot for no more than 3 pages, doubled space.
and then I just gotta study for my math final.
so it turns out things are not as bad as I thought they would be
(Thank God)

but really I just can't wait to get home.....cuz I feel like I haven't seen my familia y parentals/ hung out with them in forever.
yeah...

oh GOOD NEWS, GOOD NEWS!!!!
this summer I will be going to Denver Colorado, for Breakthrough Collaborative!!.
It's gonna be so awesome. I found out last week Tuesday!
Basically I'm just gonna be teaching for 2 months straight (from June 15 to August 12)...
it should be fun, and exhausting, but I'm really excited to go.
Hopefully I'll be teaching math, I'll find out about all  that in April.

yeah other than that...
wait.....
okay so for my african literature class (i referenced it as comp_ lit above), we have to watch 1 out of five movie for our final paper. I watched Keita: the heritage of a griot. It's an excellent movie (although it's in french strangely). I don't really want explain the movie cuz its crazy!! but um it just got me thinking about my heritage and we I come from. And i was just thinking how awesome it would be to find out exactly where I came from, who owed my ancestors, when did they arrive in americas, what country they came from and even what were some of their cultural practices. I just think that would be awesome.but it's like really difficult to find that stuff actually. But I just might have to a talk with my grandma over break...

okay that's it...
I have something to do....probably not actually...
but anywayz
