It's 2am. I work in three hours. You'd think sleep would be on my docket, but it's not. I am currently in a 24 hour laundromat. What am I doing here you ask? Well, I've been evicted from my home. Not really, but today is the last day that I can stay there, but it also happens that I don't have clean clothes for work in the morning and our Washing machine is broken. So I am actually doing laundry but also I'm killing the computer in one of the all time best video games ever made, Tekken 3. I couldn't help myself when I saw this place had the arcade version of it. It was my favorite game on the original Playstation and it was only a quarter to play!
I don't want you to get the idea that this place is all dandy and everything. It's hot and there are Mosquitos everywhere. Seriously, Mosquitos?? And on top of that I was frustrated that I had already taken all my books to my moms house, of which at this hour I don't really have access to. So I wandered over to walmart and perused the book section.
After eliminating the entire wall of shirtless men passionately holding large breasted women, I found myself with only a few options. I had already read The Mario... Um, that is The Martian (Have I mentioned that the iPhone app for my blog has one of the worst auto corrects I have ever experienced?) which was just incredible. I recommend it to anyone with an interest in physics and space travel, that is if you can handle your f words. It boast quite a few... And then there was a few political books, but I can't really stomach reading those, and then there was a small section dedicated to John Green.
Now I haven't read any of his books but I am a huge fan of his YouTube channels. So I thought I'd give his books a try. First, I picked up An Abundance of Katherines, flipped through the pages for a moment and then I saw Paper Towns, but I ultimately decided to go with his first book, The Fualt in our Stars.
So, I am in a laundry mat in the middle of the night celebrating my my victory over Ogre in Tekken 3 typing this blog post on my phone with nine percent battery life, eyeing the handrail in front of this building for my own skate purposes, doing laundry so I can socialize with my co workers in three hours, wondering if the lady slumped over in the corner of the building is sleeping or dead, and finally reading John Green. I have nothing else to say...
