The show

The show that I went to on Friday was amazing. We left Cortland at around 1:45pm, right after we had finished classes and finished eating. Since one of my friends here couldn't go, I invited my friend Conor from Binghamton to attend the event. After we had picked him up from Binghamton, we were on our way to the show. It took us about three hours to get from Binghamtom down to Poughkeepsie, where the show was being held. The time went by fast though because we listened to all of the bands we were going to see. We got to Jill's house at around 5:25pm, and the show was starting at 5:30pm. We quickly made ourselves a sandwhich and headed out to the show. We got there just in time to see one of my bands I was looking most forward to. The show was such a fun time. The Chance, the place that was holding the show, was really packed. When we listened to the bands we stood in the pit, and watched as kids around us went into the mosh pits. There were two different bands playing at the same time, one in the main stage, and one upstairs in the loft. It was also a good time because after the bands played, they would walk around the place so people could talk to them. I talked to a few band members and just asked them how it was to be touring and let them know what I thought about their music, things like that. The show lasted from 5:30pm to 12:30pm. When I got back to Jill's house I was pretty tired from standing the whole night. It felt good to lay down, but it took me awhile to fall asleep. We woke up at 10:00am, ate breakfast, and headed back to Cortland. Overall, it was an awesome time.

Brothers Wedding

On september 17th, just a few weeks after we get back to college, I get to go home because my older brother is getting married. It is going to be held close to my home and i am so excited. This wedding is going to be amazing i cant wait until the day comes. It's going to be amazing because everyone is going to be intoxicated like my dad and my brothers and sister as well as my aunts and uncles and cousins. I will also be unable to function properly that night. Another good thing about the wedding is that i am going to see my brother who lives in hawaii. He went to hawaii because he got sent there while he was in the marines. After he got out, he got a girlfriend and decided that he wanted to live out there. Since i dont get to see him very much it will be awesome to get to party with him at my brothers wedding. I think me, my brother, and my 2 cousins are planning on getting a hotel room for the night because neither of us are going to want to drive home that night and it might be unsafe too. I feel like my experience at this wedding is going to be one of the greatest times of my life and i cannot wait until september 17th.

Road trip

I have a lot of expectations for this summer. Sometime in june or july, my friends and i want to go on a road trip. We aren't quite sure where we want to go however. We were thinking about going somewhere where there is a beach, such as viginia beach, florida, or maybe even somewhere closer such as jersey shore. We were also thinking of possibly going to Canada mainly because the 18 is the golden age. The people that would most likely go would be myself, my brother tyler, justin, mike, cody, kris, conor, robbie and maybe my friend who goes to ithaca, rob hulbert. We would most likely leave on a wednesday or thursday and come back on a sunday. That way, we will only miss a couple days of work, rather than a whole week. I have a motor home that i would ask my dad to take, but he probably wouldnt let me take it and even if he did, the gas would be crazy. We would most likely take a couple cars down, or up. If we go to Canada we will probably end up partying every night at the clubs and bars, but if we go to jersey shore or somewhere down south, well we would still probably party every night. But we would also go to the beach every day and go to an amusement park or something fun like that. Since 11th grade my friends and i have been saying that we wanted to go on a road trip, but we never did. This year is the year that we are going to do it.

this summer

So this summer, my friends from college have all agreed that we have to hang out a lot during the summer. The girls have made dates for when we all are going together, which works out for me because i dont have to do much except show up. I know that from june 2nd to june 6th, my best friend from college, Kevin Hiebler, is having a four day house party. It's going to be a sick party because all of my friends from college are going, and they are bringing a few of their friends from home, and im bringing a few of my friends from home. It is going to be such a huge and fun party. We also are planning on hanging out another time in late june, by going down to visit my friend who has to get surgery on both of her feet because she has an extra bone that needs to be taken out. Since she is going to be bored because she wont be able to do much, we are all going to go there and visit her for a couple days or soemthing. Then on july 26th, we are all going to warped tour in Nassau. Warped tour is a concert in which there are tons of punk rock bands that play from sunrise to sunset. It is an awesome time and an awesome experience. The girls also said they are going to come up to my house for my birthday which is on august 8th. It'll be a fun time and we will most likely party all night because i will be partying with my friends from home also. Then, a few weeks later, we will be going back to college.

All-nighter

Yesterday while i was in my CPN class i got a text. When i checked the text it was from my friend Kristin. I read the text and it said "hey how r u feeling about pulling an all nighter." It was really random but i said yea ill do it. After i got back from all of my classes and from a concert i had to go to, the fun began. We started the all nighter at around 10:00pm. By then, everyone was all ready in the lounge so we just hung out there until about 11:00-11:30pm. At that time we realized that we would need some drinks in order to stay awake. A group of us walked down to the mobil store on the corner and picked up some energy drinks for the long night ahead. I decided not to get any mainly because they make you crash hard afterwards. So after we got back to the lounge we drank the drinks, hung out in the lounge, and then decided to go outside and skateboard. Matt, Trey, Dylan and myself all went outside to the neubig hill to go skateboarding. While we were out there a cop drove by and pulled into the parking lot next to corey union. We knew he was just pretending to do soemthing because he got out of his car and went to the neubig dining hall and walked inside. WE thought he was going to stop us and tell we couldn't skateboard there, but he never did. After about 45 minutes to an hour of skateboarding we decided to go back inside and see what everyone else was doing. When we went inside some of them were playing ping pong, so we played that for awhile and then went to take showers. By the time we got out of the showers it was around 4am. We decided to watch a movie in order to separate the men from the boys. We watched benchwarmers because we figured it would be easier to stay up if we were watching a funny movie. Surprisingly, all of us, except for kristin, were able to stay up throguh the movie. At about 6am, when the movie was finished, we sat up talking until 730am. The last 30 minutes, from 7 to 730 was the worst because everyone was just so ready to go to sleep. Once 730 hit, we called it a night and went to sleep. I woke up today at around 330pm and it felt great.

good news

I am excited because i heard some good news. Recently, one of my best friends mike who i have known since kindergarten, was talking about and asking me about cortland. I was quite sure why he was asking me all of the questions so i asked him why he wanted to know. He told me that he was considering transferring from salve regina to cortland. I asked him why and he told me mainly because he wants to do physical therapy, and his school doesn't offer it there. Since i am majoring in kinesiology and then going for physical therapy, i told him that this was an awesome school and that he should definitely check it out. He called me about a week later and told me that he was pretty positive he was going to go either here or to ithaca. Another couple days passed and he called me again. He told me that he had just applied here and that he was waiting for a reply. Shortly after, to both of our surprise, the dean of cortland called mike and told him that he had already been accepted. When he called me and told me the news i was and am still so excited. I hae known him for since we were 5 years old and he has been one of my best friends since then. It's weird too because when we were younger we always said how we were going to go to college together and now it's actually coming true. I am really excited to have him meet all of my friends and soon be a part of the gang.

summer work

So during the school year i was wondering where i was going to work over the summer. I remember my dad telling me that once i turned 18, he might be able to get me a job working with him. So when i went home for winter break i asked him about it. I told him that i was interested and that it would be awesome if he could check. So, after he talked it over he told me that i most likely got the job. When i came back for spring break he told me that i would have to meet the boss and fill out some papers. After I filled out the papers i went and had an interview with louie, the boss. He told me that over the summer i would be doing things such as cutting grass, weed eating, push mowing, and alos work with my dad once in awhile doing some stuff for the town. Because my dad works for the village of catskill, it was easy for him to get me a job mainly because every summer, the town hires college kids to work. Luckily, one guy had quit so my dad jumped on it and got me the job. Although the job will be strenuous, the pay is 15 dollars and change an hour, so i am pretty happy with that. I am supposed to start pretty much once i get back from college, maybe take a few days off first. The hours are 7:00am to 3:00pm, which although is pretty early to be getting up, work also ends early, which means i will still have part of the day left to do things. It is also good because i get both saturday and sunday off, which most kids who work in the summer don't get off. Im excited about the job and i think it will be a good time.
