I'm Sorry...really?

It's Friday and I woke up feeling good today. Honestly, I had a rough night. My twin girls went to sleep too early so they decided that 3am was playtime. For some reason I woke up with a lot of energy, and decide to think about setting a new goal in my life. I might tell you all about it soon. I might... Last night I remembered a little story of something that happened to me when I was a kid. I learned a lesson the hard way and began to think about consequences.

Through my best friend Aaron I met this kid called Vinny. The craziest guy I had ever met at that point in my life (now I think he's nothing compared to some of the characters I have met lately) But we were in the seventh grade and in Junior High and Vinny was THE MAN. He was a short but tough Italian kid that was willing to do anything to satisfy his need to feel like a rebel. There was a movie that was popular at that time called Cry Baby where Johnny Depp played a rebel. Not a very good movie although a lot of making out, but every time I come across it on cable I remember Vinny. I wanna tell you two stories about Vinny.
I once punched him for...nothing. Vinny was loud and although I kinda feared him, I knew I could take him!!. One day he and I were just talking, about...whatever...I looked at him for about two seconds and thought about how neat it would be to just be brave enough to punch him under his left eye. SO PAU!!! Vinny almost fell to the floor and was noticeably rattled. When he realized what I had done he said . "Are you fkn crazy???" "I'm gonna kill you dude". I walked away and went to class. Either I hit him so hard he forgot or he felt sorry for me and didn't wanna "kill me", but we were still friends the next day...

Second Story about Vinny:
It was a Thursday and Health class was about to end when Vinny dared me to ask the health teacher, a weird looking man late into his forties, about homosexual sex. I raised my hand and when the teacher cared to notice me I asked "how do gay people have sex?". "Do you really care to know?" he said "well you said we could ask you about anything" I said with my adorable smile.. "Well through the buttocks Mr. Borrás" said the teacher, he was turning red. "Does it hurt?" I continued, while Vinny and my other classmates started laughing... Vinny and I were sent to the principals office. We loved going there. Sometimes Aaron, Vinny and I all got sent together, those were some of the best days of my school life.
On our way to the principals office I decided to pull a harmless prank. Vinny and I went into the cafeteria and hid a lot of their utensils. Vinny and I stole the knives and forks, just for fun...yeah I was that stupid. Our backpacks were full. It was funny at lunch time to see everyone going crazy looking for the stuff we hid away.
Next morning I was in geography class when over the intercom I heard Mr. McDonald say "RAFAEL BORRAS, PLEASE REPORT TO THE PRINCIPALS OFFICE, RAFAEL BORRAS" Yesssss" , I said...I didn't want to take geography. I thought I was getting called for not reporting to the office when the health teacher kicked me out the day before.
When I got to the office the secretary (U.S. marshall like..) escorted me to Mr. McDonald's office. As soon as I walked in I saw Vinny with his eyes red, probably from crying...yeah, the tough guy. The principal said..."Mr. Borras who were you planning on hurting? Who were you gonna stab?"..."What are you talking about...Sir?" I honestly didn't have a clue..."Well, you stole a bunch of knives yesterday... tell me, (he yelled)...I'm so getting sick of you". I was so confused, I didn't know what Vinny had told him. There was also a cop sitting next to Vinny.
Vinny is in a lot of trouble said the principal (he got into a fight the day before and apparently used one of the knives) and so are you. I began to sweat and almost cry. "Anything you wanna say , asked the cop" Ahhh, ehhhh, nnnnnooooo, not really...." Say something, said the principal..... "uhhh, I'm sorry?" "REALLY?", said the principal. I'm sorry won't get you out of this one Rafael....
I only got 10 days of detention, ten afternoons writing on legal size papers I WILL NOT STEAL CAFETERIA UTENSILS.

I was kind of a prankster but I remember thinking alot that day about my behavior, It was the first time in my life that saying I'm Sorry didn't fix my problems....I also can't believe Vinny told the principal it was mi idea. I decided to do the rest of my pranks with Aaron, he knew how to keep his mouth shut...
