For my 23rd Birthday party, I brought a bunch of friends out to the Sky Bar in Royal Oak. It was salsa night and I was supposed to be dancing in that style all night, but I wasnt in the mood.

But what I was in the mood to do was get wasted. And wasted I became after JV3 kept giving me shots of Tequilla.

That night I dont remember much but I do remember:

• Hanging out at michelleu 's house before hand
• Getting Kicked Out By The bouncers
• Nearly passing out on the couch with hundreds of people around me
• Sitting in Susans car after she took me home and sitting there concentrating so I didnt puke in her car
• Being a Bad Boy on The Dance Floor ( newsie682 didnt like that)

I mostly wanted to share the pics with everyone and test out the functionality of the add crawler functionality.

I used to force my cat Gizmo to sit on my lap and I would make him look like he was typing a typerider.

My brother and I would crack up when we would do carriage returns and when we would make the cat type 50 words per second. It was good times.

And nothing wrong with making the cat pay some rent....

When I was in my Junior year I woke up one Saturday and was disgusted with what my body turned into. I had broke out with chicken pox. I ended up crying because I was sooo freaked out.

When we went to the doctors, he explained what it was and he said that if my brother has never had it either that he would get it exactly a week after I broke out.

They totally suck when you are 17 because the fever is sooo bad. I also got two big scars on my face because of those two whoppers.(See pics)

I remember I missed solo-ensemble and my duet because of it. But everyone in High School was amazed that both my brother and I never got it before.

Be forewarned, the pics are gross.

2004-09-14 | London, United Kingdom

So far my trip is going well. When I first got in to London I met a guy named Esani. We exchanged information as we were walking back and forth in customs.

Right after I got out of there I met a guy named chad. I said to him "So, the adventure has begun" and this kicked off a load of excitement and conversation. Chad was from California and i have a random pic of him giving me the hang ten on the tube.

We ended up figuring out how to get to our destinations and went up to the booth. Come to find out they only accepted pounds. I was a total dumbass, but I didn't want to get screwed on my exchange rate in the airport. Oh well. Luckily Kurt gave me 10 euros and it worked out great. We got on the train and had small talk and exchanged information.

Once I got out of the tube my heart just dropped being in the city. Black cabbies cruising by, all the cute accents, the beautiful architecture. History . . . Read More..

My friend JD decides to put on a charity Karaoke competition, which basically turned out to be the party of the year for Ave Maria. I had such a good time there that night as everyone did. He had jugdes that critiqued you after your performance, similar to what American Idol does.

My song for the night was Finch - What it is to Burn. And basically I was the opening act. So immediately I downed my long island to get the jitters outta me. For sure none of the judges had ever heard this song and it begins with a horrendouse scream of "SHE BUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRNSSSS!!!!!!!". That totally got the attention of the crowd and I actually didnt sound too bad. I was having a lot of fun doing my Brandon Boyd rocker dance and at one point I fell on the ground (people thought it was part of the act, but the reality was that the long island took over). For me its a really emotional song, that I love. Overall, the judges were pretty . . . Read More..
