Reunion

I hadn't seen my formerly-homeless buddy for over a month. So, I was surprised to run into him while walking to the bus stop from the gym this afternoon. We sat at one of the tables in the outside dining area of the food court in Bishop Square and chatted for about 30 minutes.

My formerly-homeless buddy had mistakenly thought that I was moving into the Chinatown dormitory on the first off this month. So, he was actually waiting for me to assist in any way. I clarified that I am slated to move there on November 1st. He mentioned that he has procured a small microwave oven for me to use. He also had to visit the hospital to remove kidney stones.

Typical Discriminating Hottie

Unfortunately, though, my formerly-homeless buddy is planning to move out of the Chinatown dormitory at the beginning of the new year. He has had problems with the resident manager, allegedly incidents of racial discrimination. He warned me to be careful. When he moves out, he will be visiting Vietnam for three months. Upon his return, he plans to reprise his homelessness. He will be a sheltered homeless guy in a homeless facility near Makaha.

Frankly, I believe that my formerly-homeless buddy just wants to save the rent money and use the latter to acquire more useless possessions. Even though the Chinatown dormitory is a dump, it is a much better option than any homeless shelter. Perhaps he will come his senses when he returns from Vietnam. Otherwise, I was happy to see him.
