tonight....tonight

As I stated in my last post, a bunch of the office people and I were to go out to El-Azteca last night, which went as planned. However, we were also supposed to go out afterwards, which fell thorugh. But it actually turned out to be a good time overall. A bunch of us just went up to Towers and chilled for a little while. Listened to some music, had some laughs, the usual. I wish this could happen more often, cuz these people are really pretty cool, and it was a blast hangin with them.

So on another note, I'm thinkin about pledging Pike (Pi Kappa Alpha) next year. A lot of people are telling me not too, but I don't really see a reason why. I'm already in a professional fraternity, and kind of want the experience of a social one as well. I guess I'll just have to see what happens during rush season. I'll check out a couple other frats to see what I like, and hopefully I'll find one that fits me well enough.

Peace

Random thoughts

Some of the office buds and I are going to El-Azteca this friday for a group dinner, and then out afterwards, should be lots-o-fun. Aside from that I don't know what this weekend will bring. The last couple of weekends have been downers because everyone seems to go home. I'd really like if everyone stayed for at least one weekend so we could have some fun. Maybe go to the beach or Great Adventure. We just spend so much time working together, that I think it would be great if could chill for a weekend together as friends, not just coworkers.

So I got this new mp3 player, its from philips, works ok. My last one crapped out a couple months ago, and I was just to lazy to get another one. So I spent last night putting all my music on it which gives me something to do while I'm typing at work (aka--now).

I went home last weekend to hang out with some friends and ......um....yea..you know. Then we went to the beach, which by the way is like 20 min from my house. That's one thing that I really miss about being home during the summer....the beach. I used to go maybe 3 or 4 times a week, but now its like once a month, and I'm not liking the change.

That's enough for today....I'm out

So this is how it is

So yea, I know its been a while since I've posted on here.....and I'm sorry for being remiss in my duties. Life has just sort of.....caught up with me. This past year went by so fast, and SO MUCH stuff was really packed into it. I started college, my girlfriend of over 2 yrs and I parted ways (not amicably), and I made a lot of new friends and had some awesome times here at Drexel. But as I sit here in my room thinking about everything, and listening to some of my favorite tunes, it hits me, I've never really absorbed all of this information. I mean, yea I know what happend, but I never really took time to understand it all. For instance, I was giving advice today, and it felt like I was talking to myself, not only helping this person with their problems, but walking myself through past events in my life....deep. Honestly, I'm just so thankfull for all of my friends I met here at Drexel who have been there for me over the past couple months as I went through everything, they really made the difference.

On the same note, one of my best friends may be coming up to visit on Saturday night, I'm friggen pumped. I haven't seen her since school let out for the summer, and can't wait to catch up before she goes back home.

Speaking of friends, why is it that people just can't get along sometimes. I mean theres a point where you joke, and theres a point where people's feelings get hurt. I hate having to sit around and listen to this crap, and am ashamed that I take part in it sometimes as well.

Do I make fun of people?--YES.

Do I feel bad about it afterward?--YES.

Am I going to stop?--NO.

Is there something wrong with that?--YES.

I don't know, I guess I just wish that everyone could be friends all the time, but maybe thats just transcendental fantasizing. But we can work towards it....right? I guess i've just realized that life is short and that we only have a certain amount of time to interact with people, and we never know that the things we do or say may affect people in ways unforseen to us beforehand. So the only option left open to any decent person seems to be to imporve the quality of life, not only for oneself, but for those around. For, if those around you are happy because of who you are, you have surrounded yourself with the truest of friends, and that can make the difference between a life worth living and simply existing.

I'm out,
Pete
