Ok. So this is some stuff that I have been writing over the last few weeks and just have not had time to type out til right now. If anyone knows me they know that I am kind of a people watcher. I am not a creeper or anything. I just like to observe people. Maybe I am a little strange for that, but everyone watches people a little. Those people are just afraid to admit it.
Ok, so there is this guy in my classes who should maybe be beaten with a stick. He is your fairly typical frat boy wanna be. Shaggy hair, two day scruff, collar popped, you know the kind. So he is talking in class about all of the colleges he has flunked out of or been kicked out of. This guy has been to more colleges that me, evidently. If anyone talks about anything or anyone then he always puts it down and talks about how dumb or stupid it is. (ok.. I admit, I am as guilty as anyone at this) The other day we are in Historiography. I sit in the middle of the second row and he sits right in front of me. This class is not the most stimulating. I make sure that I drink a red bull or other energy drink before I go in there. So yeah. He sits on the front row directly in front of the teacher. This one day it is fairly hot in class. It was about 95 outside. We are in class and this joker lays his head down on the desk and sleeps. On the front row! That just totally blew my mind. That shows absolutley no respect for the professor. Once this class ended I wanted to walk up the Mr. Thompson, our instructor, and shake him. I did. He should have sent the kid outside. I personally may have told him to not come back.
Same class, different day. We were talking about people who impacted history and we were comparing W.E.B. Dubois and Booker T. Washington. Mr. Thompson asked a question and I answerd it 'Duboy' and the kid says 'no, its dubwah'. This was the middle of class in front of everyone. I told him that yes he was correct for the french, but the founder of the NAACP pronounced his name 'Duboy'. So I am kinda fuming that someone would call me out in front of an upper level class and tell me I am wrong. Its one thing if I am wrong, but in this situation I was correct. THEN, I was sitting and we were about 15 minutes into class and he is fooling with his phone. He hands it back to me and says 'here, look'. It was the pronunciation guide on how to say the name. I wanted to sling it against the wall...
yeah.. That is really it. That's what happened. I may start a comic series based on this guy. I could write a lot. There is a bunch more that I have that I could write, but I will save it for later.
Hope everyone has a great and wonderful day.
