MaNgIa pt.I

Ok. It is Monday. You're not gonna believe what i did after work. I was supposed to go see Lord of the Rings... AGAIN. BUt I didnt. Ended up going to this little place called MANGIA down by St. Louis University. IT was hot! It reminds me of a little lounge spot. People basically just chill, talk, drink coffee, etc. It's exactly what I needed. I needed to find a place away from everything and everyone. My gurl Jen went with me down there. This guy Mike that actually went to the same gradeschool as me invited me to come. I really didn't want to go by myself so i asked her if she wanted to come. She said cool. I called mike around 8 o'clock and whoever answered the phone said that he was out for the night. Iwas like "WHAT?" i was thinkin', o man, idk wat to do. but then i called again around 9:30 and he was home. Thank god, i was thinking. He said, "come around 10:00 or a quarter after. If you're not here by 10:30, i'll call your cell." So... because people are hella drove, people were still getting ready until like 10:20 somethin'. so he called my cell at about 10:25. we finally picked him up about 10-20 minutes l8er. We finally made it to MANGIA around 11:15 or 20 after. It was a small place, but man was it crowded. It was mad crazy. Reggae music out the ass. It was so tight. As soon as we stepped in, Mike saw like 7 peeps of his. he was introducing everyone. I really don't see the point of intros, u know? It's not like you're really gonna remember their name right then, ne way, u know? (if u could even hear it over all the talking and music... and glasses clinging and clanging) So.... after all the introductions, we made our way to the back and he saw a table full of people he said he hadn't seen in forever. IT was cool. His eyes got big, made his smurky little smile, and said, "Heeey, wazzzuppp". More introductions. Of course. His friends that we met when we first walked in bought us some drinks and i was chillin'. It was vodka and cranberry juice, i think? Mine was gone in like 5 minutes. It was pretty good. After a good 20 minutes of not having ne where to sit, a table was finally vacated and we sat down. Jen gave me my first cigarette. And my last. It wasn't all that. I'm cool on that, u know wat i'm saying? So ne way, me and jen just sat and talked for the remainder of the time. Bouncin' our heads to the music. And chillin. Just chillin'. That's all I wanted to do. The other girls that were with us in the beggining left after the first 15-20 minutes of being there. Guess they wanted to go get drunk and pass out somewhere. wonder what they ended up doing ne way? On to my friend graham. he hates me now. I don't make enough time for him. Hell, i don't make enuff time for myself! but i know it has gotten worse, but now it's to the point where he can't take it. and neither can i. i think the best thing for the both of us to just not talk or something for now. i can't concentrate on ne thing when i'm talking to him. and i need some time without everyone. i think i'm going to the library or somethin'. i'll tell u more about this l8er.
