Hello. My real name is Chris. I'm named after Christopher Robin from Winnie the Pooh. The year 2010 went a little like this:
"I don't see much sense in that," said Rabbit.

"No," said Pooh humbly, "there isn't. But there was going to be when I began it. It's just that something happened to it along the way."

I'm in college. Just moved into a fraternity house and I love it. But I'm also a junior...3 semesters left. I'm starting to realize
I used to believe in forever
But forever's too good to be true.

Along the way, I've learned some things about myself. I've made mistakes, had success and tried a good deal more without either. But thing I'm most proud I learned was
Don't underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering.

I'm back in my home town on winter break. At the start of tonight I was playing Mass Effect 2. Great game. I was playing at a friends house. Well his gf and my gf are best friends and they wanted to party. Me and my best friend didn't...we wanted to nerd it up. Let's just say its been a hectic past couple days and partying wasn't high on our to-do list. Remember,
It's so much more friendly with two.

But the more the merrier, and we ended up at the party anyway. A shot turned into a couple beers, then a massive and awe-inspiring run at beer pong (made 8 cups in a row on the second turn one game). Now yeah, the table was short, and I'm used to lobbing those balls twice the distance. But I'll take my victories where I can get them.
You can't help respecting anybody who can spell TUESDAY, even if he doesn't spell it right; but spelling isn't everything. There are days when spelling Tuesday simply doesn't count.

It was fun though. At midnight I kissed my gal, we've been seeing each other for a little over a month. We were on the front porch amidst a ton of people with noisemakers, kazoos, and all kinds of inane party gimmicks. But our kiss must've been the best because the host's mom was there and she came out onto the porch to give us both exploder things. We counted down and shot them off and as the streams of thin paper fell from the sky we'd turned the party into a party. And I wasn't going to go out tonight..
Did you ever stop to think, and forget to start again?

Fast forward past as much free taco bell as we wanted, I was guaranteed free access to my gf's friend's rich aunt's house for the weekend. Then me and my gal ended up back at my place...
Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know everything there is to be known.

I know. Fast-forward again

As we snuck out of my house into the back yard we stepped on damp leaves and could see our breath in the air. I drove her back, walked her back to her house, and as the gate closed and she walked up the path to her house she looked back through the heart-shaped hole with a big smile on her face. Awww.

I get back home, get on TL, and see that bomb ass tsl3 intro. TL is the ONLY site I'll accept intro videos like that from. But, still, I'm alone here. Everybody else is asleep. I have another week of break in front of me. I love my home town.
And by and by Christopher Robin came to an end of things, and he was silent, and he sat there, looking out over the world, just wishing it wouldn't stop.

have a happy new year. I will.

Happy new year man! Glad to see that you went out and had fun at a party.=)
My new year consisted of me playing some friends in iccup and getting my rear-end handed to me several times in a row. Anyways, hope your new year is good! =D
