For my last Spring Break ever (Senior Year at Oakland University) I was going to go to Florida for Spring Break, but my friend cancelled on me. So as a second effort to have a good time on my break I decided to buy tickets through a school trip to NYC! Tickets were super cheap (170 bucks for 4 days). The only person I knew was Andy Baker, but after those 4 days were over I made a ton
more friends and had the greatest time I have had in such a long time!!

Here are the things I remember us doing....

When we first got there we immediately went to times Square where Andy lifted me up on his shoulders and we took pics and hung out.

I felt so gross from the long bus ride, but we couldnt yet check into the hotel.

I dont remember specifics about what we did on the first day after that, maybe we went to the comedy night that night with Adrian Bass and others, I am not sure.

In the morning for sure I know we made our way to the Metropolitan museum. It was one of the largest . . . Read More..

In 2004 my friend Jason from Cross Country decided he wanted to teach
in Thailand for a year.  So all of our XC buddies got together and gave
him a little going away party at Dave and Busters in Utica.  It was a
world of fun that night.  Just a standard night on the town.  But I am
sure he appreciated the great time too.



He ended up going out there and will never come back for he fell in
love with a local beauty out there and they are now married in
Thailand.  Enjoy the weather buddy!

One winter night when Kevin lived above a business in a sweet apartment in downtown rochester. He and a bunch of C-Town gangstas had me, Kev and Robin (my cousin) come over for a "flowing session".

For those of you who dont know what flowing is, just see the 8 mile movie about eminem.

So we all were at a bar that night hanging out and playing pool. The snow was coming down lightly and then we all went upstairs to their apartment.

Kevin had this buddy who was a white boy, but absolutely amazing at rapping. He even had rap CDs and stuff. And this guy could spit out rhymes like you wouldnt believe.

We had beats in the background and we all . . . Read More..

I met my friend jana710 at a bar in Keego Harbor MI.  She and a bunch of other South African friends were hanging out and I offered to take a photo of them all.

Jana and I were immediate pals.  We played pool together and had great conversation.  I had never met anyone from South Africa at this point.  And I liked when they talked in Afrikaans.

jana710 loves her bars in Keego, so much that they even kicked her out once they found that she had a fake ID.

Her and I have a random friendship because we always would seem to bump into each other at random bars like J.D.'s Key Club

Went to Kensington Community Church and watched some of the most amazing talent in music. Met Noel who told me i should check out this site. Unfortunately my wife couldnt be there so i was a bit saddened. I alway like to share things that are great with her.
