glimpse of a shadow

A stranger that really stood out in my mind out of all the strangers I've met is this cashier at Loblaws in Ottawa. It was a long lineup where me and jeff are getting ready to bear the heavy weight of groceries home. This lady started checking the pack of eggs that we bought, turning every single eggs to see if there's any crack.

I am surprised at her professionalism in a job that doesn't require such professionalism. The memory of her is forever burnt into my mind.

The second stranger is one who reminds me of myself in first year or second year university. Parag is a man who means well… but his priority is always on the girls. He'll betray his best friend if it means getting more attention from the girls.

In a group, his discussion with me will only last as long as there are girls listening. If one of the girls start talking to another guy, he'll lose focus and try to interrupt that conversation… If I started talking to any one girl in particular, then he will cut in very rudely.

Predictable… Was I this annoying?
