How Quickly We Grow Up

Yuri and I along with two other of our friends have agreed on a bet that would prevent us from making fun of anyone in our circle of friends. Anytime one of us pokes fun at one of our friends, that person gets a point added to their score. The person with the lowest score at the end of the month wins. How hard can this be? EXTREMELY! We are constantly making fun of each other. Like one of our friends said "There are going to be a lot of boring conversations for the next month."

This is how guys spend most of their time. Making fun of each other, playing sports, and making stupid, stupid bets. Last night, however, another group of friends and I had an actual conversation in which we discussed issues that were affecting us. During this conversation I couldn't help but think "Damn. We've grown up so much." Maybe we've become smarter, maybe our shared experiences have earned each other's trust. One thing was certain though, there was no going back to the way we were.

Five minutes later, sure enough, we were making fun of each other again. The thought of one of us attempting to swim the Atlantic in order to escape murder charges was just too funny to hold in. Gotta love being 20-something.

Why Jorge, that was the most awesomest blog post ever!

BTW does sarcasm count as "making fun of"? If so this is NOT a sarcastic comment.

Keep up the good work you great guy you.
