College Graduation!!!

In terms of blogging I have fallen off the face of the Earth! It have been over 4 months since my last post?! Ridiculous! I HAVE been really busy, but that time gap is inexcusable and I apologize. Let's do this!

Oh yeah, I graduated!! Way back in May (Tuesday, the 19th of '09) I graduated from Rutgers University! I am a joint graduate from the School of Arts and Sciences (SAS) and the School of Communication, Information and Library Studies (SCILS). I was granted a Bachelors of Arts degree in Communication with a ~3.4 GPA (really a 3.39) and departmental honors. I was also inducted into Lamda Pi Eta the Communication honor society end of my Junior year.

The ceromony was nice and also short running just under two hours (incredible!). It was held in the College Ave gym, a place I have visited many times during my tenure at RU. It was a great feeling to walk across that stage to know that I have finally earned a College degree. Wow! Finally done with College? On the the real world?? Scary thoughts! However, I've recently witnessed my older siblings do the same thing and they seem to be surviving just fine.

Real world here I come ready or not!

The Ultimate Challenge

I recently participated in tryouts for an elite Ultimate Frisbee team from Philly. The team is Pike and they are known as a "team to beat" in the Ultimate World in the Club level Open division (Open = men's) at least on the East Coast. This was an excellent experience for me. I have just come off a really fun, yet fairly disappointing College career in terms of success. I have never made it past the first round of the Championship Series (Sectionals, Regionals, Nationals) in College. Pike is a team that used to consistently go to Nationals until recently and the captains seem hungry as hell to make it Nationals once again. I started the tryout period by going to random pick up games in both New Brunswick and Philly. There I meet some of the veterans on the team and learned how their system worked a bit. The main tryout weekend was an intense experience. The last weekend of May anyone that wanted to try out for the team was invited to a brutal tryouts in Philly at t...

Don't Call it a Comeback

Last time I posted I wrote about a crazy length of time that had past between posts. Wait! That was only an unpublished draft. I don't even want to go there in this one. The goal is to get back into the swing of things - at least semi-regularly. We shall see!

NYC!

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...
