when a sniper comes to call

yea yea i know, the title is messed up, but then again, isnt almost everythin messed up these days??
how do you warn a friend bout somethin without offending him? the saying goes that if he is a true friend he'll get it, but that aint really true no more. In todays world, egos are everythin, ur entire identity is fused with your ego and this is not necessarily a bad thing, but it sure as hell aint helpin.
This guy i know, he got burnt once, badly, and when i did my bit with the fire he was the one who ran right in and pulled my ass out...and for this im gonna owe him big time. now hes startin to mess round with fire again....and im jus worried bout him i guess...
but then again, one the positive note..hes at least tryin to get to the warmth which is somethin great, for me, the memory of my last attempt is still too darn fresh...and so its gonna be quite some time before i can attempt nethin again.
when one deals with a sniper, one keeps his head low and always moves around from point to point so that the sniper cant get a fix on you, and then once you've distracted him enough mebbe he can be taken out...so i hope my friend does the same..
nothin else happenin, waitin for the 6th o aug to come around...
later..

somethin new...

hey everyone...
for a long time, my bdays have been kinda similar..this one girl in my coll would wish me (since her bday was one day after mine) and then if a few people came to know about it from her they would make a huge hue and cry and wish me too....but it was never a big deal since i was quite sure that they were jus doin it for civility's sake.
My dad, mom and lil bro never once missed out on makin sure I had a nice bday every bday....they did try....i shall not say whether they succeeded or not... :)
but this bday,my 22nd one...was AWEsOME...my two best friends along with my mom and bro sprung a surprise on me, i think this is the first one im ever havin...it was amazin...and the coolest thing about this was that they were most definitely not doing it for civility's sake....they were doin it coz they are my friends....and that feels so damn great...
i had an amazin day...i jus wanna enjoy the fact that no matter what i may or may not have....i do have an amazin family (they put up with me and at the end of the day, everyday, they still manage to love still...) and i do have a group of friends who are truly unbelievable.. (u guys know who you are..!!).....thanks guys...
