Over the weekend, I didn't really do much, but I did attend a party. There were a lot of people there and many of them were out of control. It's one thing to enter someone's house knowing you can handle yourself, than to completely make a fool out of yourself and others in the process. One of my friends took things a little too far and got really sick. This made me think aboutf how that could've been any one of us, and that it could have been more serious. So, now I am going to try to be more responsible when I go to parties with my friends because I don't want to end up like that.
Also, I met someone new last night, a friend of a friend. He seemed pretty cool, but I could tell that he wasn't who he seemed to be. We were helping him take a piece of furniture to his brother's house, and on the way he was talking about beating people up because they owed him money and wouldn't return his calls. Well, I don't really like fighting, but even moreso I hate borrowing money. I am going to keep my distance from that kid if he continues to be that way.
The last part of your entry made me think of the following quote:
ReplyDelete"Neither a borrower nor a lender be,
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry."
Who said it? Where does it originate? What does it mean?
Also, continue to be a role model for chuckle-heads.
