Observation on Wed 21st.

Yesterday I chose to sit in one of the chairs at Donald's Bagel's in Schewel Hall and try to pick up any conversations. I started several but only one account had enough information to write about. The other accounts were either blurred or did not have a sufficient amount of information.

In this account there are three women talking behind the Bagel counter. One is a young girl and the other two are middle aged ladies. What I have is not all correct because at times I heard only little bits and pieces, but most of it is true.

The bridesmaids are in Richmond this weekend said the to-be-married woman with her hair braided in pig tails. She explained how she had already picked out a dress to the woman in blue. Her hand movements suggested where the dress was cut. Her fingers showed that the dress was draped off the shoulder, cut just above the bust. "I don't want a jungle green next to a sea green" she said exasperated. The woman wearing blue jeans and a white sweatshirt commented that indeed the bridesmaids needed to match each other. They young woman began to become frantic that her wedding would be a disaster because her husband was trying to make some of the plans. "But his plans are only sabotage" says the woman, her face crumpled in a look of disarray. She wants his involvement with the wedding plans but her fiance is assassinating the wedding plans in the meantime. The lady in blue replies, "The bride needs to make the plans because the book will be in the house for years." The young lady's voice trembled when she said she wanted to make her wedding look good. "Yes, because you will have pictures to show to friends forever," stated the lady in blue jeans, nodding. Just as soon as she made her remark to her soon-to-be-married friend someone entered the line to order a bagel thus ending the conversation.
