People Asking For Money

[LeafBlade]

I usually have to pass through downtown waiting between buses when I go to and from my university... Now I usually don't carry change, and I have only a few $1 as spare for my bus pass or emergency to call phone or something. I am getting to the point that I recognize one or two people asking people if they have change. Though I don't pay too much attention to them I can't tell if it's the same one asking for food or change, but it's usually one or the other.

For change, I don't usually carry change and I like to keep my $1's. So I tend to lie. The one time I gave someone a dollar was a guy who looked like a college student or someone who seems to be working and had a bad day forgetting to refill his bus pass. THAT ONE TIME.

For food... this one is tricky. I usually carry individually packaged snacks in my lunch kit that I take to school. Though I tend to lie about having food because... well, maybe Im a horrible human being. But can I use "struggling student" as an excuse? (incoming derailing about my life) I used to be a skinny kid and now im just gaining some weights to be healthy and idk maybe im being selfish.
