"new kid on the block."

i hope the dodgers whomp on the phillies. now that the angels are no longer playing...the hope of los angeles (and the the west coast) lies in the hands of the blue crew. after gathering cans and bottles for weeks...i finally recycled them and got some cash redemption. only $4.20. it wasn't much but it was something and i'm grateful for it. i look forward to redeeming more recyclables...got to hustle for that paper. thai food was the cuisine of the day. bua for lunch with karla and dinner at mr. noodle (i finally went) with tash. although i was quite late...i managed to make it to tash's who am i? discussion. my friend michelle saved me as she directed me through the campus (while running) and helped me reach the meeting. it was nice to see some familiar faces (tiffany, rachelle) and meet some new ones (rex, stephanie, michelle, and so forth). stephanie and michelle's car overheated in westwood so we spent almost two hours waiting for aaa to come twice and tow the car (there was a miscommunication the first time around and they just unnecessarily jumpstarted it). although i didn't have to stay since i drove separately with tash, it was the right choice to stay and keep them company. a random experience indeed but i think it was worthwhile...it's not every day i get to chill with new people in la.
