First encounter
-intro- Job Corps... The start of a new journey. So i decided to take a journal of the this. blah blah... let 'er rip!
-6/22/09- Job corps First impressions. Day 1 Honestly, It's not that bad. A lot of younger guys, kids in their early 20s, and late teens. It'll probably be tough to find guys, and gals my age to hang with. Then again, I didn't come here to make friends. My biggest concern is this TABE test. The math part especially, as it has never really been my strong point.
AS far as dorms are concerned, curfew is at 22:00 sharp. No ifs ands or buts. If your late you get a write up, and may be considered awol. Also I must remember to bring towels next week, as tonight I get to dry with a bed sheet. SPLENDID! The time is currently 22:09 Sunset was at approximately 19:45 down town LA is BEAUTIFUL @ sunset. Especially on the 8th floor. Not many would say that I guess.
-6/22/09 cont.-
Although it still bothers me that I need to dry with this bed sheet, I don't have any real complaints. I mean my neighbors scream random shit at the tops of their lungs, but that's nothing compared to west 145th street.
At current im looking out the window and at night it kinda down graded from breath taking to beautiful, and a little sexy. I believe I'm looking down on 11th street... or is that Broadway... I'll find out later. [it was Broadway!] you feel so small and the street is so desolate. its pretty late so there isn't much street traffic. Flying Lotus truely captured the heart and soul of down town in his Los Angeles album.
well my room mate is trying to get some sleep so i'll sign off.
-- till tomorrow
