John blazed and sh!t what.."

Self Checkout

Back in my college days, I would scan organic fruits and vegetables as non-organic pesticides, insecticides and herbicides filled fruits and vegetables b/c it was cheaper...

Its not that I don't do it now b/c I know that it is unethical but b/c the grocery store that I go to doesn't have self-checkout...

and yes I definitely saved a lot of dinero doing it..

The real world...year 1.

This time last year I was walking across the stage and beginning the next chapter in my life...Post undergrad, welcome to the "Real World"...

I can't believe it has already been a year...and its crazy how much has changed since then...

Do I miss the days of undergrad...yes and no...the social scene was cool and I had a lot of fun...but I hated the homework, test, papers, long nights in McNair studying...basically everything I did in school that was graded on a scale of 100.

times flies...

SHOUTOUT TO ALL THE AGGIES THAT GRADUATED THIS PAST WEEKEND!!!!!! BIG UPS, YOU MADE IT!!!!!

1 yr. down.

I can't believe its been a yr. already.  I'm surprised that I've kept it up this long.  The pic above is where it all started.  Everything I needed was in this picture...oh those were(n't) the days...

The ironic things is I started this blog 3 days after niki and we weren't even talking to each other then...

coffee table + books

So, I go to Barnes and Noble (B&N) or borders on the regular...its a great way of relieving stress at the end of the day. I'ma NERD, I know...


FLASHBACK!
In g'boro, I used to go to the Barnes and Noble all the time...I would park my "sports car" in the b&n parking lot, walk to the cold stone and get the a.burton special (cake batter ice cream + cinnamon ice cream + pecans + a waffle cone in a like it size), then walk back to b&n, grab a few magazines, read and eat, enjoy...

Unfortunately now here in A-town, the cold stone is down the street and around the corner...and like i said before (link) cold stone ice cream = causes car accidents! trying to eat and drive my car, which is a manual, is tough...

So now on to this post...

coffee table + books will be posts dedicated to all the books that I come across while walking to the magazine section in the book store that I find interesting and think every coffee table shouldn't be without.

first up...
