Apropos of Nothing

As part of a massive Christmas gift collection to multiple family members, my sis gave us all tickets to go see 1964: The Tribute in Carnegie Hall in New York City. 1964 is the best The Beatles tribute band in the World according to Rolling Stone, so this was destined to be a great time. The original plan was to bring myself, Beth & Drew Newman (sister & bro[ther-in-law]), my parents (both are fans, but my mom is a HUGE The Beatles fan!), Drew's parents (Older Newmans), and two family friends of the Newmans. The family friends of the Newmans opted to not attend the adventure, and yes it was an adventure which I'll get to in a minute, so Mr and Mrs Shmitch who are long time friends on my mom's were summoned and ready to travel to NYC in a matter of minutes! Literally, in less than 1.5 hours they were called, packed, and over my parents house ready to go. Impressive from a Sanborn perspective. But wait Bill, why were they packed? NYC is only a short train ride a...

As I sit here on this bitterly cold Saturday morning (and yes, its really cold. The heat in my room was out for a few days and it was just fixed a few hours ago so my rooms is still warming up) its just hitting me. In three days, I start class for the last semester of my undergraduate college career and very possibly my entire college career. I think its hitting me so late because I just took a final last night. Yup, aren't winter classes great! No... not at all. I have been taking classes since July 6th, 2008 and there's no stopping till May. If you think me updating this blog has been lacking lately, then be prepared to be disappointed. Think of this post as a warning; a disclaimer of my spring schedule. Hopefully, there won't be a large drop-off to updating this, but its hard to say. The winter has been decently busy, yet fairly uneventful. So not many posts. The spring is going to be super eventful, but I'll be so busy I may forget that I have a blog. Jus...

It hasn't been too long since when I first realized that my college life was going to end and the Real World was knocking on my door. Not only did I have no idea what I wanted to do with my life, I had no jobs in mind for when I leave Rutgers. So, I decided to get on the ball and start making plans for the future. So far, this is what's going on: I attended the Rutgers annual career fair last Wednesday. I didn't expect much going into it, because I read somewhere on the website that certain industries are generally not represented, such as media, public relations, etc. All the areas that my major has been preparing me for. Awesome. Well, I didn't let that little disclaimer stop me from attending and checking out the scene. I felt like the day was a minor success in all. I ended up talking to a variety of different organizations such as, 95.9 The RAT radio station, W.B. Mason, The IRS, Town Sports International (Philly/New York Sports Clubs) among others. I pro...
