Today was a steady Tuesday, like normal until a new character decided to entertain myself and co-workers with his presence. A man walks in with a bag full of clothes and other surprises that you will soon hear about. This guy walks in and starts loudly asking every person he could see if they had a cigarette. One member that I was about to help said, “I don’t smoke cigarettes” and as he continued to ask everyone he ran into he says “damn, does anyone in America still smoke? I just want to buy a cigarette.” So I look at my co-worker who’s sitting at the front desk and she is wide-eyed and trying to contain her laughter just as I was. This guy proceed to sign in at the desk, putting in the “other” category, money. I saw this and told my co-worker, “what does he think, we’re just giving money away and he’s coming to pick it up?” So as I took my member in the office to help her, I saw this guy go outside and ask everyone in the parking lot if anyone had a cigarette…this guy was fiending. He finally comes back inside and tells other members that are waiting that he just wants a cigarette and coffee.
My other co-worker comes out to help this guy and takes him to his office. After about 10 minutes of being in the office, he leaves. I asked my co-worker what he wanted help with and he said and he said the guy asked for lawn mower parts. My co-worker said “I’m sorry sir, this is a credit union, but there is an automotive store right across the street you can try.” At some point during the conversation, my manager brought some medication for my co-worker that was helping him because his stomach wasn’t doing too well. Then for some reason, the guy says, “here’s something that will help” and gives my co-worker some weird name brand condoms. My co-worker was like, “uhm, I don’t think that will help” but the guy insisted. He apparently also asked if he can throw something away in his trash can, my co-worker said yes, the guy throws away one thing, then pulls out a baggy with marijuana seeds in it. My co-worker quickly told him “sir, you can’t throw those away in here, you’ll have to take those with you.” Then that’s when my co-worker realized, there’s nothing he could help him with and said “alright, well you’re all set.”
When my co-worker told my other co-worker and myself what happened in the office, we were laughing so hard, we couldn’t contain ourselves. I have no clue why we have these characters that come into my job, but it sure is amusing…as long as they don’t do anything crazy.
On another note, I saw the cutest thing on my way to school today that I couldn’t help but smile when I saw it. The ducks that live in the pond on campus were crossing the street. It was so adorable and I couldn’t help but snap a pic…

So the original layout I had was one that I found that someone else made. But even when I first started my blog adventure, I wanted to have my own layout with my personal touch. After taking care of school bidness, I had some free time to play around and I decided to make my own theme.
As the days quickly pass and summer will soon turn into fall, along with a little inspiration…the new layout is dubbed: Summer to Fall <333
