Vatican or Bust

Just happened…

Adam — Tue, 06 May 2008 04:51:41 +0000

Adam: “Wanna just go to bed?”
James: “I have a six page paper due tomorrow.”
Adam: “So do I; so what?”
James: “I don’t know if I should just do it or wake up early and do it then.”
Adam: “You should just do it then.”
James: “You’re right.”

Live from New York

Adam — Fri, 02 May 2008 04:43:38 +0000

Today was definitely an interesting day with plenty of mixed emotions. Having not slept last night really put me on edge for my last day of undergrad classes ever but at the end of the day it was a complete mix of excitement and sadness. I’ll keep this short since I really want to go to b

ed, but at the End of College BBQ it really clicked in how many amazing people I’ve had the chance to get to know over these past four years and how much I will truly miss everyone.

As I write this, I am in New York laying in bed. Friday will be a day filled with homework (blegh,) a trip to the Palisades Mall so I can get a power cord for my laptop (I’m an idiot,) maybe golf, a trip to the gym, and a bit more relaxing. Saturday and Sunday are host to The Bamboozle, my third year going at the Meadowlands, and I could not be more excited. James and I had a really fun drive up here and I know we’re going to have a great time. I love this kid. Tomorrow I will post the minute by minute schedule as to where we’ll be for the weekend, just in case you care.

Update #1

Adam — Thu, 01 May 2008 03:10:56 +0000

I figured I’d post a quick update to a) show what i have on my plate for tonight and to b) show some pictures from the past few weeks. Later tonight (all-nighter) I will post my schedule for the upcoming weekend trip to jersey for Bamboozle 2008. In a few days I’ll post some videos from the PC Idol finals and maybe some RA Banquet photos.

Annoying.

Is this a joke?

Adam — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 13:06:31 +0000

When did Facebook become GMail?

T-Minus

Adam — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 04:51:26 +0000

Less then seven hours to go to write 12+ pages not including 3 pages of stock info, an intro, cover, and sources. Shit.

Great Day for Music

Adam — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 08:27:06 +0000

Those of you who know me best know it takes a lot out of me waiting for a new CD to come out. I’m lucky if a band I’m interested in has one CD come out in a month. HOWEVER, today, April 22nd, brings three CDs to the table. I’ve listened to all three of them over and over again for a few weeks now and I gotta tell ya, two of the three are amazing.

1. Goldfinger – Hello Destiny
My favorite band and the style of music I grew up listening to. It’s not as great as their first three full lengths, but it is better than their last two. Check it out – it’s a great summer CD.

2. Story of the Year – The Black Swan
Another great band that had an amazing first CD and a shitty follow up. However, this time they teamed up with John Feldmann (of Goldfinger glory) again and have put together some great new songs. I’m very happy. P.S. Great for the gym.

3. Ashlee Simpson – Bittersweet World
I know what you’re thinking, Ashlee has no talent. I’d argue against that for her first two CDs, but this third one sucks. End of story. Maybe I’ll like it in a few weeks – doubt it.

Wiki2 Page of the Day

Adam — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 17:36:05 +0000

Sometimes I like to troll through the hundreds of pages on Wikipedia2.org (my baby,) and reflect on the past. I forgot about this page and it made me laugh when I saw what my buddy wrote about me. So, for Monday, I point you to the user profile of 420 Blue.
