Thoughts about life…

Some mornings you wake up feeling up.

Some mornings you wake up feeling down.

And some mornings you can’t distinguish between the two.

Things that happen in life are quite interesting to watch unfold. You’re writing your own story while others are writing theirs and sometimes both of your books match up, and then move on. I’ve been raving quite a bit recently, and have been having a blast at every event that I’ve been to. The only time that I didn’t have a full loaded night of fun was last night when we went to Lyrics for a Victoria’s Secret Valentine’s Rave. I wish I had done more research, and I wish that my friend knew that she wasn’t going to get to dance during one of her DJ friend’s sets because I probably would have chosen to not go. The night did have some fun times, I mean we got to chat with Royal a bit, and I got to say hello to Andrey again. Last time I saw him was at Nocturnal Wonderland 2005, my first rave.

Maybe it’s the scene that’s got me wiggin a little. Maybe it’s the rave, Event Horizon 2006, I’m going to tonight. Maybe it’s because Grant’s here and he doesn’t like raves at all and I put him through hell last night, I dunno. There are so many possible reasons, but trying to pinpoint which it is really doesn’t do anything but burn time, and that’s not something I have a lot of these days.

I dunno, maybe I want to be able to hang out with certain people from the scene outside of the rave so that it feels like we’re real friends that I can call to say hello, talk to, and hang out with, rather then feeling like I only know them at the rave. I guess that’s partly my fault since I’m 25 and most of them aren’t near that age. Maybe I have more time under my belt and want more then a quick weekend pick-me-up. Maybe I’m scared, and I think this is true whether the previous statement is true or not. Anyone that I hang out with that is under 18 I put myself in jeopardy. My friend found this out the hard way when the law stated that 18 is 18 and it doesn’t matter if she turns 18 in a week, 17 isn’t 18.

I’m not much for taking non-calculable risks, and the one thing if nothing else that I learned back in High School is that girls are completely 100% incalculable. They are definitely unique, and that’s probably what strikes the most fear into me. I’ve always been able to figure most things out, but never once have I figured out girls.

Oh well, guess that’s the fun puzzles of life.

School starts again…welcome to Spring 2006

Oh yeah…I suck. I can’t seem to find the time, or don’t feel like writing blogs. Either that or I write them for other places but they don’t really apply to my personal blog. I’ve been spending a lot more time working on the WhaddupNow.com website and things related to it.

So…lets see here. What have I been doing. Well, after school got out I went to a few more raves. Maybe if I feel giddy I’ll go back and write some posts about them. I went to Identity (which was a super hero based rave), Nightmare B4 X-Mas (themed after the movie), Together as One (super sick New Years massive), and lastly Reset 2006 (I don’t know really what the theme was…probably gaming themed but it rocked none the less!). It’s been fun, the raves are fun as heck, the people are cool, the music is awesome, and the vibe is insane. Pure fun!

School starts tomorrow, so that will be both cool and not so cool. It won’t be cool because I was unable to get any of my classes during early and late registration for one reason or another. This means that I will be begging each teacher to allow me to sign up for a class and for 2 weeks I’ll be in limbo. The cool part is that my fraternity will be starting back up and getting active again. This rocks because that means I will ALWAYS have something to do Thursday nights. I don’t really know what’s going to happen with the rave scene once things start back up. I’ve got a lot of obligations this semester, so I hope to make 2 a month, but trying to make every weekend, though fun, would be costly and might leave me with no personal downtime. /shrug

I’m also hoping to get a job this semester. I know I’ve talked about it previous semesters, but I think I really need to get one and hold something. My resume looks weak, and people don’t really like seeing family business related work on my resume. Besides that fact, I would like to do it for the experience and to get some dinero built back up in my accounts. The fraternity and raving isn’t as cheap as I thought it would be, so to have a supplemental income to cover the unknown excess would be kewl.

I’ve also been pondering the girl situation. I’ve talked with Jason a bit about it trying to figure things out. I don’t know really what I’m going to do, and even if I do I’m not going to spill it here on the internet. :p Since I’m a full blown Delta Chi, and this will be my first semester active, things will be different from before. I’m no longer an Associate Member, so I don’t have to worry so much about doing dumb things that get me noticed. It should be chill.

Well, I think that about taps me out for the time being. Hope everyone out there in cyberspace is doing well. “I’ll catch you on the flip side.” - Rocco in Boondock Saints

*sigh*

Well…it’s almost been a month since I last posted Party and Delta Chi Xi Class Car Wash. I was hoping to keep a more active blog, but things got busy and the blogs I should have posted here I ended up posting over on other sites. I guess mainly because they were better suited over there and I wanted to post more personal ones here.

Just in case you’re curious what those sites are, you’ll find them listed under my links section on this blog. My Rave / Party scene stuff is on http://www.WhaddupNow.com, that’s where most of my recent effort has been. I still need to add more Delta Chi stuff to this space, and will back-write soon. If you care, and are interested in what I’ve been doing, look below / before this post but don’t go further back then November 13th since I’ll be filling in stuff between now and then.

Some important things as of today…
1. 10 days till I’m done with school
2. 16 days till I’m a Delta Chi
3. 26 days till Together as One

If you’re interested in Together as One (TAO) You can get tickets via Groove Tickets, or VIP tickets here.

Halloween Party / Pack-a-Box / Monster Massive

Well the Delta Chi Fraternity had it’s annual Halloween Party costume bash. I gotta say, I…HAD…FUN!

The party started at 10:00 PM however I was parking the actives cars until 11:00 PM. At that time, once I knew I was off the hook and no more cars needed to be parked, I drank some of my “Vanilla Coke.” Some friends came by upstairs so I offered them some of my coke too, needless to say, it hits hard. :D ;)

Not too long later one of my friends pulled me into his room along with 2 others from my class for good old Captain Morgan shots. I took it and tried to find something to chase it with, but alas there was nothing nearby to use. I walked over to the bar room to find something to chase the terrible turpentine taste when a beer is thrust into my hand and I’m informed that the beer needed to be drank before he got back from his room. Soooo, down the hatch it goes. At this point my stomach is at maximum torture capacity and I need some time to recover, but as a bonus I am now buzzing.

For the rest of the night I socialized with anyone and everyone and took a bunch of pictures. When I went to upload them I had taken a total of 211 pictures from the party. ( If you weren’t in as many pictures as you wanted next time come seek me out and have me take your picture. All I do is walk around and try to find fun things to shoot pictures of. )

The party finally ended at 2:00 AM when we told everyone that if they aren’t a DChi or chick they gotta go, however that was revoked and changed to everyone in the house that doesn’t live there had to go, gotta love the Police. When they went through the house to make sure everyone that didn’t live there was gone, they found someone that had too much to drink. Since the situation is still under review I won’t go into details, but the fun factor went down from there. In the end I finally got to bed around 6:00 AM.

Since everything was combined into one big blur, and I only got an hour and a half of sleep I’ll just move into the next event that I helped with, Pack-a-Box.

I woke up at 7:30 AM and started to walk around the house to assess the party damage. The house was a mess no matter where you walked. I thought about going to my car to change out of my costume, but due to the fact that I had only gotten one hour of sleep, and I was lazy, I passed and kept it on. Eventually some of the guys woke up, or showed up, for the event and we were out by 9:15 AM. We technically were supposed to be at the place by 9:00 AM, but hey, we did our best and we showed up anyways even with only an hour of sleep or so each. :p Since I was still in costume I got some weird looks, but it’s all right, I like being unique. :)

After we signed in we were assigned to several different tasks: tearing up boxes, making boxes, packing canned goods in the boxes, moving crates filled with different things, etc. It was fun and I had a blast! I operated a hydraulic lift to move the crates around that the guys breaking up the boxes filled. When I wasn’t needed for that I helped out Gus and Ryan moving the boxes for the assembly line, once the crate was filled I went back and brought them a new one and dropped off the old one. I basically moved around all over the place trying to help out where I could. Around 11:15 AM we took a quick 10 minute break, and by 11:45 AM we were done since we ran out of meat and couldn’t pack correct boxes. After saying our goodbyes we headed back to the house.

Once back at the house not many of us stayed around long because most of us wanted to head back and get some sleep. I had intended on either going to Blizz Con, or doing a movie marathon with my Dad, but things didn’t work that way and I ended up going off to take an hour nap or so. Well 6 hours later I woke up and saw that it was 8:30 PM. I called Rene to see if he was going to Monster Massive, but unfortunately for me, he was already up there standing in line about to go in. Due to multiple circumstances I was unable to go. That did really bum me out, but hey…I got to go back to bed and make up for my loss of sleep. :p
