Hi, my name's Hali and I like to party...

Post by Hali23 » Mon Mar 04, 2013 10:13 pm

I'm 23, engaged and have a 3 year old son. I'm a college drop out and all American failure, I also am learning to love my life. I'm awkward in person, I'm sure it's even worse in text.

How is everybody?

Oh, Lord. Is it even possible to be a failure at 23? :) Just who are you taking your advice from? Fire them immediately!

Boy, girl, or undecided? Where ya from? <-- You don't HAVE to answer this, I'm just nosy.

. . . I'm pretty good, thanks for asking.

And I'm awkward, too.

wow, Hali, your going to be the first awkward person on the playa, Besure to stand out in the middle of the playa Saturday night, just before the burn, I will look for you. I will be so happy to meet you. I am guessing you will be very easy to spot as you will be the only awkward one out there. Enjoy.

Hello Hali, welcome to eplaya.

At Burning Man, (almost) no one will think you're awkward.
Well, unless you dress like this- Image
In which case, being awkward is the least of your worries.

Welcome.

The only way to not fail is to never try. Who wants to live life like that??? Do, try, fail... Life is to short to worry about that.

Hell, 23 is hardly old enough to even have tried anything!!

You will find that BRC is full of failures, goofballs, misfits and malcontents... (Larry Harvey is a self-admitted failure!!)

I personally know many ways of not doing stuff, finding out is part of the fun :)

Minority opinion here, but "... and I like to party..." as part of your introductory thread leads me to *yawn*.

It might be a movie quote. :lol:
Rod Kimble: Hey, everybody! I got some awesome news. We have a new crew member today, Denise. So I thought it would be fun if we all went around and said our name and a little something about ourselves. I'll start. My name is Rod, and I like to party. All right, Dave, you're up.

Dave: Uh, hi. Uh, my name is Dave, and uh... I like to party.

Rod Kimble: Uh, no, Dave. I just said that I party, so maybe you could do something different from me.

Dave: My name is Dave, and I... am the stuntman.

Rod Kimble: You know what? Let's move on. Rico, you're up.

Rico: Uh, hello! I'm Rico, and I like to party.

Rod Kimble: Yeah, uh, Rico, what did I just say to Dave?

Rico: Who?

Rod Kimble: Dave!

Kevin Powell: I like to party. I'm Rod.

Rod Kimble: No! You're Kevin!

Kevin Powell: Right, Kevin. I party.

Rod Kimble: No, no, you don't. Okay, nobody parties but me.

Dave: Yes, and we party.

Rod Kimble: No!

Rico: Yeah, just Rod...

Rod Kimble: Yes!

Rico: ...and me!

Rod Kimble: No! I'm the only one who parties!

Kevin Powell: I'm pretty sure I've partied before.

Rod Kimble: No, Kevin, I know for a fact you don't party. Okay? You do not party!

Kevin Powell: You're right. Dave's the party guy.

Dave: Haha, sweet!

Rod Kimble: Oh, my God, shut up! Okay? I'm just gonna do it for you.

Hey there, welcome to eplaya!

Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me
