Biggest Party School In The Nation

From 12/19/02

"Winners are ordinary people with extraordinary determination."

This is the quote that hangs on my pc monitor.

Believe it or not, there was a point in my life, where I did NOT show extraordinary determination. We'll refer to that time period as, "school."

You see, in my younger days, I was not very determined to succeed. It's not that I didn't want to succeed, more the fact that I lacked motivation. I'd rather hang out with my friends than study. I would often times goof off in classes, and act as a ring leader, and because of this, my only option for further education was a horrid place called "HACC". And I probably wouldn't have even gotten into the main campus, I had to settle for a branch school, the "lancaster campus." While my other friends went to big schools like PSU and MU, I was stuck in a second rate community college with ashtrays. I eventually, left the school, for the fact that it made me ill.

However years later I would look back at some of those friends: one a "free spirited homo", and another a congress coffeeboy on kneepads, and realize, that I made the right choices for myself at that time, for I would not be in life where I am today, had I not followed the same path I did.

There's your lesson kids. Always be determined, and strive to reach your best.
