the news finding me

So last night President Obama gave his state of the union address on all major TV networks. I had know idea it was occuring until I logged onto my facebook profile. The news found me. How? Well a couple of my 600 some friends, had posted status' about President Obama's speech, that seconds before, I had know idea had taken place.

Welcome to the age of technology, the age of not physical social interaction, but the age of social networking. Lets face it, when you get home from work or class you usually go straight to your laptop, desktop, or iphone. At which point you usually go straight to Facebook, Myspace, and/or twitter. Why? Because we are, as Generation Y, attracted to it this new type of socializing. A socializing that involves not hanging out with friends physically, but sitting behind a screen. This is our world, changing before our eyes, so take a picture. And then post it on facebook.

California Bound

California, what a beautiful place! “Hopping off the plane at LAX”, as Miley Cyrus would put it, was if fact what I did! I left from Dulles Airport on the 20th December, right after a huge snowstorm had hit the east coast, and I was sure happy to escape the frigid conditions. When I arrived in LA, I immediately went to the famous burger joint known as “In and Out”, to have my first In and Out burger, and boy oh boy was it good! The next day both me and my boy Sam worked at a Seahorses soccer camp, which continued for 3 days. I had 10 through 12 year olds, which was in my opinion the best group, and I had a blast! Then for the next three days or so, Sam and I went to Chinatown, Orange County, Bel Air, Route 66, and other crazy places. Then on the 27th, our boy Peter flew in, and then the party got started.

Even though I went crazy and made some great memories with Sam and Pete, I learned something very valuable. Friendship. I realized that I need to cherish what I have with these two guys. Because quite frankly, I am really truly blessed to have the relationship with those two guys that I have.

the smell


well my roommate smells horrible!
I don't know how else to say it except for the fact that he smells absolutely ridicoulouslkkhdfljkwsdfws horrible!!
It in fact is really THAT bad.

I think i get so frustrated, because every time i walk in the room, instead of smelling maybe the multiple air fresheners i have placed around the room, i smell my roommate.

Ahh yes nothing is better than walking in and breathing in a 200 pound eighteen year old man's sweaty clothes littered throughout the floor.

But hey, haha its college right.....ahh yea.....what are you gonna do? Just suck it up i guess.
