so last week when my baby was at apple,
i did something i haven’t done in a while.
yes.
brace yourself.
jamari fox went to the library….

i don’t think I’ve been to the library in years.
by years i was in high school doing a group project.
i had to go there to take this skill test for the temp agency in microsoft office.
as well as a typing test.
the results will help them place me for a job.

when i got to the library,
for one i noticed i looked way too presentable.
everyone was bummy as all get out,
there were jailbirds and homeless people everywhere,
and it was just way too hood for my liking.

people were on the computers looking at facebook,
playing candy crush,
and doing other shit without a care in the world.
i had to get a library card to just to use the computers.

when i reserved a pc,
another device i haven’t used since high school,
i had to wait a good hour and a half.

*insert massive eye roll here*

if i didn’t have to take this test,
i would have bounced and never looked back.
as i waited,
i decided to check out the books they had.
again another item i haven’t touched in years.
i realized at that moment just how digital my life has become.
i usually read books and magazines on my iPad.
one thing about me is i love to read.
nerd alert?
so i picked up:
i read his e lynn’s books on the low from my parents.
he helped me understand the lifestyle better,
as well as awakened my love for football players.
basil henderson seemed like my dream wolf.
i got hooked on the book immediately,
but half way into reading,
my number came up to take the test.
i sat between two hood boogers at the station,
one of which was blasting rick ross in his headphones.

“how great!
“lets hope it deafened him sooner than later,” i thought,
i tried not to let it distract me and i tried my best to drown him out.
my scores with little studying?

word: 90%
outlook: 87%
power point(which i never used before): 63%
excel: 35%
typing test: 54 words a minute/some mistakes

had to take the L somewhere,
but i barely used excel at my past jobs.
i sent the confirm email to the snow bunny at the temp agency,
checked out the book,
and was on my way.
ya know the library is not that bad.
definitely had no cuties in there to speak of.
i may find myself in there more often.
preferably around the times the hood and homeless don’t show up.

lowkey: thank you nerd for the help you provided in email!
i looked over excel a little,
but it was hard especially on the ipad.
i did pick up a few things tho,
but clearly not enough LOL
