Ha ha ha.

Right now its 5:30am and I'm in the thick of pulling an all-nighter. All this sleep deprivation for a paper of only 1200 words. I'll take it if it gives me more time to keep it real on the side. So anyway, yes, I'm here at the IU main library with my Taiwanese friend Johnny Ho. This guy is a character: a tad shorter than me, mobster-colored (and styled) hair, hip prescription-tinted glasses, and bare feet. He rests alone in a seating area here in the "Information Commons" on a loveseat. There are maybe 15 people situated throughout the commons, including the student employees.

As I've done before when we both have stayed overnight at the library, I have just put a sign on him. Remember, he is asleep. This is what he deserves; public humiliation. Although it IS freezing in here, he is without shoes and socks, lying outstretched on the couch with his headphones on and jacket draped over his chest. His laptop is open, materials out. The perfect addition to this is, of course, a sign placed on his body that reads, "Will write paper for shoes".

I'm in a different area of the commons, but only a 10-foot high wall and about 30 feet separates us. I'm giddy with laughter. Haha!! Someone's laughing at him!
