my hangout

EXACT QUOTATIONS
While sitting at my hangout, known as "the boat" by many, I notice a lot of people hunched over textbooks with their ipods on. A lot of other people are engaged in quiet conversation, eating salad and sandwiches. This surprises me because that's not how it usually is, maybe this is a low-activity break. However, I see the normal burst of energy from a usual suspect. She and other people are laughing, with her screechy voice penetrating the air. They now begin to hug. Then start playfully punching each other. One girl asks me why I'm writing this and tells me not to put what they are doing in here. Haha. The two benches look so seperated. Abandoned bags are strewn everywhere. I sit on one of the benches. I realize that if you sit and just observe, you can see a whole bunch of other "groups" interacting thoughout the upper part of the quad. It may sound kinda creepy but it's like I'm a stealthy ninja or something. I feel like a pirate from a crow's nest. I see freshmen, one boy is playing the uke- I guess he's fairly decent but no Jake S.

I then move to the steps and observe where I just was moments ago. It looks the same, except everything is softer but I can still hear the same girl with her screechy laugh. From this view, I now see people's backs instead of their faces. Some are still eating although from here I can't see the food I just see the motion their arm makes taking the food from the plate to their mouth. A lot of people look so concentrated.

And that's all I wrote cause we had to go.
