Today for the first time in my life I felt bad for lying to a young homeless guy at McDonalds. I was walking in and saw him sitting there with his head down on his knees. I looked at saw that he had a bag full of stuff behind him and I was like aww hes homeless. Then when I was walking about with my food he said to me, “Do you have any change?” I looked at him and lied and said no, sorry. Then as I walked to my car I looked back at him and he was back to the head on his knees position. I kept watching him and I felt really bad. I wanted to go back and give him all my change but then I thought why is h homeless? What would he use my change for? Then I was like well maybe I can ask him if I can buy him a sandwhich or something but then I saw he already had some food. So anyway I continued with my day, drove my hour and 30 minutes to school. Things are going okay at school then when its time to leave is when my day went to crap. I get to my car look up on my windshield and I have a 25 dollar parking ticket! Ugh!!! So whatever I get over that and head to Burger King to get my veggie Burger since I hadn’t had anything to eat in almost 9 hours. So I’m going through the drive in, just sitting there patiently waiting when all the sudden the guy in front of me starts backing up!!! I’m thinking wtf? What is he doing??? Is he really backing up into me? Is he gunna stop? So I try to honk and throw my car in reverse but the guy hit me. He gets out his car and I’m pissed, but luckily there is no damage. He was really nice about it. We went back to our cars and then I’m sitting there pissed off I order my food, trying not to cry, and then the guy gets out of his car and starts walking towards me, I see he has money in his hands so I’m like is he gunna give me his $20? He explained to me hat he felt bad that he scared me like that so he offered to buy my dinner and let me keep the change. I started crying and told him thank you that I really appreciated that and that I was a broke college student. I mean I’m reeeeally broke. So anyway that was really nice of him. I still feel like I should have gave that homeless guy some change. Maybe next time.
