I met The Tent People!
There are these people living in a tent by my apartment, and i have been dead curious about them. They have been there for over a month, just hanging out. I walk by them every night- usually on the other side of the street, but tonight i didn't cross over because they were hanging around...

i guess i shouldn't be so emo.
i don't know...
i feel disconnected from my friends.
