blog 12

GC

positive:
There's music playing and people all around. The mood is relaxed and I can see people meeting for lunch. Some people do homework or are on their computers. The smell of grilled chicken fills the air. On either side there are tables lined up the entire length of the food court; some selling food or deserts for special causes, others selling earrings and other types of jewelry. Flyers are being handed out for the parties that are going to be happening in the next week. People are laughing and playing ping pong to my left while others on my right wait in line to get food.

negative:
This place is packed! There is music so loud you can’t hear yourself think. People are bumping into you as you try to fight your way to get food. There are lines so long you’re not even sure you’ll be able to make it to the front of any of them. As you approach the center of the chaos, more obstacles appear in front of you. There are people standing in the center of the path, handing out hundreds of flyers that will probably end up on the floor in a matter of minutes and kids playing guitar hero, which creates a line all the way across the path. After the maze of people, you finally get to what you’ve been looking for, the food. But after all of this you just want some sleep.
