well - note what i say about matt skains
i was just surfing around trying to find someone who had updated their blog so i could read something interesting - my girlfriend did (see right - "britt fry is special") and adam hasnt in a long time - although adam, i know you are a blog reader regularly...or semi regularly - it seems that ash, you havent had time to update your blog...skains is not a slacker...whit...chip...slackers...and i know - i do it too - jon boben is allowed to because lindsay steck told me this weekend that she printed out his blog - like all entries - just to use her credits at the a&m library which is included in the fees - of free pages - 249 or something - no one comes close - and i dont know that anyone will...however - its still exciting to see regular posts

i started my job a quiznos today (haha sleepless caitlin) - it was pretty cool - good food - good ppl - damon is awesome and so is his wife and this other guy "Rolman" coolest name ever...
i learned how to slice meat - how to clean the meat slicer and how to run the register - barely though -
i missed lacrosse -and i may have to for a while even though that sux alot - cuz my job -
come up there folks - come visit me - no free food but - yea...
champ fores. and louetta..
any how - i have some crap to do so - i'll catch ya'll later - if this blog inspired you to type a lil something in ur blog- please tell me - by saying "yes, daniel" in your blog post...
rock on

cut it out

Here's something thats stupid - people who dont know when they're being rude
i know its not "their fault" - but you should totally be aware of whats happening
thats for YOU

you know who you are...but - if you're cute - then i'm not talking to you

Love? - shut up

Love?

ok - well
here's a few things

i dont want to be confrontational but i think Grant, (grantsblog.blogspot.com) you are sorely confused -
let me clarify -
yes, Jesus drank. Jesus didnt get drunk - it was customary back then - there were no LAWS prohibiting drinking of wine - at a certain age - as far as i know -
there are LAWS today grant - that PROHIBIT consuming alcoholic drinks until you turn 21 -
when i turn 21 - i'm going to drink
i dont think i'm going to get plastered - but i will drink - grant - its not wrong to drink alcohol - so long as you are WITHIN THE BOUNDS OF THE LAW - what i'm saying is that i understand some of my friends drink - underage - and thats what i cant support - i still love them- they're my friends...but - i just cant support that if it goes against things i believe in

people who sway with their beliefs - "oh, now its ok i guess...just this one time..." or "well, since this happened its ok now..."
whatever - if you cant stand for important things in your life....what else is there to stand for ??

i'm not going to eventually sway from my belief (which i know is the truth) that underage drinking is wrong
drinking when you are of age - is not wrong - in fact - i'm willing to say its enjoyable sometimes- but thats just gonna have to wait

i hope that cleared it up for you grant...seriously...thank you for pointing stuff out...i appreciate your reading my blog and feedback...

tell me someone if i'm completely off base - or you think that i am...i'd really like to know...

eh...i'm trying to do my best...

I went to the movies with my wonderful girlfriend brittany - good times - i'm going to sleep in tom. like no mans business - i need to find a job like no man's business too

dang -

thank you to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for his efforts to bring this country to where it is today - as well as for giving me a day to sleep in and catch up on things - this one's for you Doc MLK

I cant wait for a few things coming up:

- class ranks on the 29th or 28th
- coldplay on the 28th - holy crap yes - steven will josh...oh dear sweetness
- NCL w/ karibus...
- Bens birthday (19)
- more things...i cant think of right now

Tonight i was at Adam Hull's house for poker and cigars - fun times
i had my first 3 cigars

yay me

steve morris is gay and hates me

allright - time for a good blog

well here's what i'm wondering
why is it that people are so selfish...and i'm the first one to admit that i can be too - i try not to and thats the important thing
why else is it that people want to drink -
as far as i can see, people who drink underage seem to do it for the following reasons:
- Friends are doing it
- They like getting drunk
- Its "fun" and they cant seem to find other things to do that are fun - or i've heard this one too -"it makes normally funny things even more funny....haha - jokes on you


here's the thing...i dont hate people who drink...in fact - i dont hate drinking - when i'm 21 i'm planning on drinking - not to an extreme but - to an extent that i think i can enjoy - and i'll figure it out then...not now (because the risks are just too stupid and too many)
what i do hate is the fact that its a sin...its wrong - illegal and it just has a negative connotation - it does...no matter how you put it - whether you support it or not...IT IS a negative thing - if i tell someone that i drink - occasionally or whatever...they still might have a negative image of me -
now - here's another thing that i've come to realize - what people do is not ALWAYS who they are - some of my good friend drink underage -and ya know what...they're still my friends...i still love hanging out with them when i can...its just that i dont support what they do - i wish they didnt do it - i dont want them to do it - its wrong that they do it...i mean - certainly its not "morally right" is it?
people just drink - they arent drinkers...they're people who drink...

do i think people should drink underage? heck freaking no
do i think its wrong? you bet
do i hate people who drink? no way!
can i ever support it? no
should i change what i believe because of what my friends do? definately NOT
will i encourage people to not (or stop) underage drinking? count on it
am i shallow for my thoughts? i dont think i am - in fact - no, i'm not
are you shallow for thinking that i cant accept the fact that people drink? yes

i accept the fact that its out there - and no matter what i say or other people say - with an exception for a few - people will still do it - and thats too bad - because money and time is better spent elsewhere - rather than on alcohol

here's what i want you to understand - i dont support drinking for a number of reasons - which you can figure out above - but what i do believe is that - its something people do, and if they happen to have the heart and strength to stop it and they have the brain power to realize how dumb it is to do it...then i know they can stop - and i'll help all the people i can who are willing to do that...but rest assured i dont turn my back to people who drink or whatever - they're only human...and we all screw up

eh...so long -

hi rachel -

well i drove to sugarland today - it was crazy - as i was driving i was thinking - it was nuts - like -i'm speaking for myself and i'm pretty sure that it applies to most every other person who lives around Northwest H-town - like we dont even have any idea what life is life outside of I-45 to 249 1960 to 2920 -

its crazy cuz - like we hardly ever venture out of that area and its too bad
theres so much to do - i wish i could do it more often -
i'm tired - this semester is going crazy already

i'll blog later
hi liz

today i went to pappasitos to turn in my appication to pappasitos and they said they'd call back "those" who they wanted a second interview with between 5 and 6, and guess who got a call...not me

well its 622 now and i'm gonna leave in lil bit for the bball game and soccer game but - dang - oh well - if anyone knows of any other jobs available - please let me know - maybe they'll call back later - i sure hope so

today school started back - it was crazy -i have 2 new classes and i only have 1 class with liz richmond - i didnt see brittany today but thats ok - i dont have any classes with ratchel - but anyhow - hi rachel -

soon many of my college friends will bee heading back to their respective campuses - good luck to all in this next semester - in which i will be doing fun things and enjoying myself -
somone cut down our senior tree and i want to chop off something dear to them - go home you freaking faggots - you dont deserve to be noticed by people if you do something that moronic and stupid
go home, get a job, find something better to do then cut down a tree

panty-wastes

:-)

away i go -

i want to say hi to the following people:

katie the winner
marti
rich liz
silverado
a sull
my dad

hello kurt - you are a loyal reader i hear

aloha all - wow - days just fly by - i'm going crazy - i'm actually very excited to start back up with school...i have 2 new classes (of my 4) and i'm extremely interested to see who will be in those classes - tomorrow is church and then monday we have off - this is crazy -

allright - i have a bone to pick - time to write about something that bothers me - why do people expect you to do somethign for them when they dont do the same thing for you - for instance

I'm too busy to read others blogs - but i still expect a devoted readership to my blog - i'm not too interested in others blogs -but i certainly want mine to be read often by many...thats stupid and illogical to expect that - folks -its a 2 way street - if you want devoted readers - be a devoted reader (if you want a friend, be a friend - i think thats the old tyme saying) - but what i'm saying applies to other things as well - if you expect people to listen to you whine and groan about your problems - you HAVE TO BE WILLING TO listen to them - its as simple as that - dont be a selfish fag - just ya know - return the favor - dont really expect a favor back but - yah

why do people want to avoid certain situations all the time - why? can they not handle a little awkwardness - or maybe they dont have any kind of gut to stand up and just be themselves - for example - i see girls do this alot (maybe some guys...but more so girls) - things such as
"hey suzie, lets not go herre - i think there will be jimmy - who i dont wanna talk to because he kinda has a crush on me and i cant stand to look at him"
or
"Oh my gosh, shameeka, look over therre...no! not yet - in a minute - its billy ray - he's so nerdy and i totally feel uncomfortable whenever i see him, lets take a long way around so there is no possible way i have to be uncomfortable"

ladies and GENTLEmen - dont live your life avoiding things - live your life doing things you want to and doing things you believe in - if you go around looking to avoid situations - you will miss out - on many many things - its weak and its selfish - 2 things I know i dont want to be characterized as -
i know what your saying - but daniel - what if...whatever...
i'm not saying just go into any situation - if there is a situation in which you need to avoid something - then avoid it but- dont walk around school intentionally looking for situations to avoid - if you come up on one - be a big person who doesnt flee - stand and just be yourself - the situation will be over soon - and if its really that bad - like endagering to health or something then just leave but - i think you all catch what im saying by now -

weak people who dont desire to change make me sick -
weak people who desire to change - INSPIRE THE CRAP OUT OF ME

weak people - you arent really weak - its all in your head - be strong - stand up and dont let anyone bring you down

watch out - its 2003
wow
this is the year that:
- i graduate from high school
- i start college
- i go to prom
- i get a new computer (hopefully)
- i live by myself
- i do many other exciting things

my parents have just informed me that i must get a job - please let me know any ideas - i'm pretty sure that - i may apply to pappasitos - but anyhow - its a bummer- i dont wanna miss like my brother's (and my school's) soccer games...and stuff but - geez...
well - i need money so...oh well
