Walkin' The Nose
If you had to, would you really be able to think of 1,000 words for a picture? I mean, I guess so, maybe that’s a stupid question. It just seems to me that some pictures are only really worth like 657 words. I am in love with the subway, though I still call it the Metro…lived in DC too long. People look at me strangely when I’m parading my tourist status around by saying...
So my posts have been rather sparse lately. The reason being I have been cheating on this blog. As in writing another one! Somewhere else! Oh man. Anyway, check it out. Not only because it’s awesome, but because you can also listen to my band’s music. Crazy www.myspace.com/runninglightsband

I think it’s ridiculous to assume that everyone writes with the same grammar rules. For example, when I say the sentence “First of all I don’t think that’s true.” A grammarian would want put a comma after the ‘first of all’. But that’s not how I talk, it doesn’t sound like that when I say it so why should I have to do it. I say, write how...
A Pirate's Life For Me
Can I just say, that “Chips Ahoy!” is far and away the best name for a brand of cookie ever. I just realized the brilliance. Take a moment, it’s really that awesome. (At least to warrant a post on a friday night) (And don’t worry I’m going out later… I’m not just sitting around pondering cookie names on a friday night in NYC)
Are you on drugs or do you just always make this...
Idea for a metaphor type thing: So I have recently decided, after living in New York City for a few days, that a good way to describe my music taste would be to refer to artists and bands etc as Manhattan neighborhoods. So, Central Park would be the ‘center’ of my musical taste, with artists like John Mayer, Coldplay, Muse, and Howie Day hanging out. Then, the farther you get from...
It's for the Helicopters (Don't be stupid)
I don’t really know what to write about these days now that I’m in the city. I think I had college writing down, city writing is currently eluding me. In other news, I joined a gym today… not on purpose though. They are just masters of the art of deception and intrigue. Either way, I’m excited, maybe some famous people will be there? Well, doesn’t really matter,...
Amazing Fantastic
Yes! Finally, back to the world of random random random! -So, I’ve moved to New York City. I think that is pretty awesome. Some initial thoughts: -First, my room is amazing. Anyone staying in New York has to come check it out. There is a crazy guy that lives in the building across from me that dances some wacky dance every day. It is amazing fantastic. -Riding the Downtown subway...
New Year's Resolutions
OK, being at home isn’t really condusive to writing in blog land. Therefore, I am going to take a break until I get up to NYC… in like a week. So, until then, you will be forced to find your random thoughts somewhere else… you could even talk to me in person! I’m pretty decent live. Peas out
Succulent
-Wow if I was a police person I would arrest myself of lack of posting. I realize it’s only been a few days, but things that go un-updated are bothersome. -So Macs are better than PCs in case you are wondering. PCs are awful, and the fact I am working on one right now is only due to its proximity to the kitchen and not based at all on its functioning. (or lack thereof) -If anyone has...
I think you are crazy
OK, so I’m back from the Myrtle Beach. One of the weirdest places in the world in my opinion. I don’t really feel like writing right now, so I’ll give details later about that place. Let’s just say there are more Mini-Golf places than there are grains of sand. Yeah. So I procrastinate. Here is the product of my most recent hour: http://www.duke.edu/~adc13/crazy2.mp3...
Lunch Break
Myrtle Beach from Thursday ‘til Monday. See you on the other side…
He got that ambition baby, look at his eyes
-BEACH tomorrow. That’s pretty much all I’m thinking about, you’ll be lucky if I think of anything else to write here tonight. This is what I read when I am done with finals This is what happens when I’m bored, and have a camera
4 Hour Movies
-I have a lot I want to do today but I can remember none of it. It’s already 11:30, let’s hope I didn’t want to eat breakfast. -I had an urge to clean my room today, which is weird because I leave in about 5 days. Of course, this urge never presented itself in the last 4 months that I’ve been here. Neither did the urge to decorate, so I’ve been living with blank...
Ah Reading Period
-It’s very weird for it to already be the end of the semester. There are a lot of people I feel like I really haven’t seen all that much of. I always assumed “oh yeah I’ll see them next weekend whatever.” Of course, now next weekend is in Myrtle and the one after that is at home…so so much for that plan. I just thought I had more time. At least I can still...
The Opposite of Procrastination
— Step by Step Guide — —How to Write a 12p Paper — 1. Make an outline. Only get as far as the intro, then decide you will think of the rest when you get there. 2. Check and re-check email to make sure professor hasn’t changed the page limit to 1. 3. Obtain lots of procrastinating snacks before proceeding any farther. (Peanut butter is best, with banana)...
