Lets see...

I haven't written in this in almost a year. I guess I was too busy with work and partying this past summer, and too lazy last semester. I wish I did it more cus i love going back and reading all the entries and remembering the good times from last year. I guess I need to get back into it, so thats what I am doing. I think I started these posts about this time last year because this weekend is the Rolex 24 and I remember writing something about that near the beginning of these posts.

Lately Greg(Bone), Brendan(BJ), and I(Papa J) have been watching a fuckload of the show 24. We got hooked on the current season and starting renting all of the previous seasons on DVD from Blockbuster. We finished Season 3 and are almost done Season 2. We watch like 4-8 1 hour episodes at a time and most people think we are crazy. We can't get enough of it. Watch a few episodes and you will understand.

Now that Tom lives in Palmetto, we have been visiting each other every few weekends. We started a new Sunday ritual over here. Adobes around 9 to watch Tom's new love interest Leiah....and then over to Lollipops, Daytona's finest strip club. I love that place. $10 lap dances from some of the hottest chicks I have ever seen and only a $5 entrance fee can't go wrong. If only I didnt have to pay for a hot chick. Those places just eat holes in your wallet. Last weekend we went to a club in his town over on the Gulf coast and the next night we were here at one in Daytona.

The night we came back to Daytona last week my fraternity had its first intermural softball game of the season. Tom played with us, and although we lost, I went 1 for 1 with a walk 2 RBIs and get this.... an inside the park homer. You never thought that a fat kid could do that huh? I fucking cranked the ball over the left fielder and it stopped at the fence....everyone said I was around second by the time the kid got to it and he had a limp arm so they waved me home. It was nice to have the best hit in the game. At first when I go out to play sports most people assume that I suck just because I am overweight. But I make a believers out of them. I am a skinny kid trapped in a fat man's body. I am the most agile fat kid you will ever meet. Confirmed by all the boys back home and all my friends down here. Later that week we had an intermural soccer game. We got the "W" with a score of 5-0. I played the whole game as either the left or center defender, and only allowed 3 shots on our net the entire game. Not too shabby. I can't wait to play this week.

I just started the Multi Engine course here and have a simulator flight tomorrow. Its both fun and tiring at the same time while learning a new plane. Its fun to do something a little different but frustrating that you dont know all the procedures in the new plane. I hope to finish this course in about 8 weeks. I already know that Im gonna have to stay an extra 8 weeks in the summer to take the fucking CRJ course. I get to walk in graduation in May but will be here til the end of June finishing up that one last class. Hopefully Greg is still here so we can just get drunk everynight. I still dont know what the hell I'm doing when I graduate, but I think a lot of people are the same way, so that makes me feel a little bit better.

Rolex 24 tomorrow night, Superbowl Sunday and Tommy will be here all weekend. I am looking forward to it and will let you know how it goes sometime next week.

So its been like 6 or 7 weeks since I've written in here, and the fact is, its because I've been having too much fun! This was originally a way to pass the time when I was bored but lately I've been busy with school, or having fun. Frances said I had to update this so that's what I am doing.
This one is gonna be long...I can feel it

Lets see, Spring Break was a fucking blast, when Tom, Plumie, and Mike got here the fun started immediately by drinking and sitting out in the beautiful sun. We ended up going to the beach to check out the scene. What we found was a debaucherous scene indeed. Scumbags, drunks, rednecks, hot half naked girls, druggies, old people.......but mostly hot girls. HAHAHA. Definately eye candy for myself and Plumie who were obviously the only ones looking because we were the only single ones. We made Tom and Mike wear blindfolds.
The rest of the week we stuck to 1 routine and 1 routine only. Wake up early, stop at liquor store, drive to beach, get drunk, get sunburnt, no lunch, big dinner around 7, continue drinking, draw cards to see who is DD the next day, pass out. Repeat.
The first day Plumie puked out the window on the way home from the beach cus he was wasted and we never ate anything til nighttime.
Midway through the week we drove to Sarasota to visit Toms parents. We got up early and went to clearwater beach. Once again it was time to get fucked up for Myself, Tom and Brian. We played football on the beach and had an amazing meal at Outback with Tom's parents. Back in Daytona we continued our Ritual and had an amazing week.

Following week was our fraternity's "I-week" or Initiation Week, which I was in charge of this semester. I did nothing but wake up pledges at 6am everyday, fly, go to class, run nightly evening meetings, and pass out around 2 every night. After this week I was exhausted.

A few days later, Ashley Gintoff and 5 of her friends (girls might I add [hot girls might I add]) from college were in Florida. We had arranged earlier that we would hang out for a few days so she invited Nick and I down to her Condo in Orlando for the night before we all would head back to Daytona.

Short Story: I got really fucking drunk, passed out on the pull out couch, and pissed cus I was so drunk. I woke up in Piss.....

No worry, I just folded the couch up changed into a different set of clothes and pretended like nothing happened. Later this day Ashley told me she came and slept with me on the couch cus some chick was hooking up in her room, so Im kinda scared I might have peed on her. Who knows. She didn't say anything....She might now if she reads this:)
Girls came back to Daytona to stay for 2 days. We immediately went to and spent the day at the beach. Sidenote: Hanging out with 5 hotties at the beach is a lot of fun. Moose and Nick showed up and we all had a fun time. Later that day I had class so the girls hung out by my pool and when I got back, we (myself, greg, 5 girls, and the 4 that live upstairs) grilled out. Of course that night like 30 Sigma Chis (ok like 5) swarmed to my place when they heard there were girls there. We all played drinking games at out place and got shitty.

Short Story: Girls convince Greg to come to the club with us, 5 guys and 5 girls go to club, Ryan dances with superhottie Carly while Greg is backed into a corner with an Ugly chick, Ryan is selfless and rescues Greg from nasty, night goes on, drunken taxi ride home, more drinking, pass out.

Next day girls went to the pool and then took me out to dinner when I got back from class. I drove them back to Orlando and came back to Daytona.

Which leads us into April. I finished up most of my flying except for the checkrides. The schedule for prog checks is backed up close to 2 weeks. Which means I would end up staying here in Daytona close to 4 weeks late in the summer. Fuck that. I got put on summer hold, and will finish in September.

Last week Katherine, Krystal, and Jocelyn were in town with Krystal's parents. They came over the first night and we got wasted. Greg ended up bringing them back to the hotel. A couple days later Andrew, Michelle and I met up with them on the beach. We found out about a keg party cus it was the last day of class and the girls went with all of us. We took this new van that Dave's Uncle gave to him. Its an 80s conversion van. Its shit brown but is SICK!....Mood Lighting, Captains chairs in the back, a card table with cup holders, and tons of room....its awesome!
The keg party was a lot of fun and I think the girls had fun too. We stopped by Sigma Chi on the way to bring them back and also had a midnight snack at Denny's.

Since class has gotten out, I've done nothing but get wrecked at night go to the beach or pool during the day, play tennis and sleep. Tomorrow I have my first 2 of 3 exams and then its time to hit the road. I wont be alone of course cus Marcus and Brett are flying in tomorrow to drive back with me. We are also visiting UNH this weekend with Tommy, and are very excited and looking forward to that. Happy Early Birthday Frank. And Happy Late Birthday to Megan.
Next entry will be from the homestead: Milton,VT

Sunday ends a fun filled weekend.
Frances reminded me I needed a new entry so here it is.
Thursday night was the semiannual CA party, where pledges throw a party for the brothers. We only have 2 pledges this semester so we weren't expecting that great of a night. They ended up buying a shitload of beer and food and set up a beer pong tourney for us. Cash prize for the 1st and 2nd place teams. I just want to say now that I was not having a good night beer pongwise. I teamed up with Milton who is the master of beer pong. First game we lost so we were put in the consolation bracket. With little help from myself we moved all the through without a loss. Ended up in the final game. We had to beat these guys twice....we won the first one but lost it in the end. Milton and I split the 20 dollar prize although i should only have gotten about 2 dollars of it......Anyways.......
Milton gets a call from Collins who is working at the Plaza bar. "Michael Jordan is here!" So Milton, Russ, 1 eye, and myself make our way over there. We took the Passat but Russ drove cus i was a little bit shitcocked. We got there and Russ and I ran across A1A to a tourist shop to buy a disposable camera. 13 fucking dollars!!! So there went my beer pong winnings along with some of Russ' cash. We made it back into the bar and said hi to Jordan and introduced ourselves and shit. We asked him if we could get a picture with him and he's like "Nah Man I can't do that right now" (He was busy hitting on some women) We were happy enough that we had met him so it was cool for us.
2 minutes later 50 Anniversary Playboy Playmate Colleen Shannon walks in (well I didn't know her name when i saw her but called Greg and told him to get out that issue of my Playboy collection and look up her name). I went up to her and introduced ourselves once again. Made small talk for a minute then asked if we could get our picture taken with her. She was happy to oblige. After someone took out picture Russ and I talked to her for a few more minutes. She was really cool and down to Earth and didnt seem to care that she was talking to 2 normal....well 1 normal and 1 fat.....guys. She was a DJ and asked us to come to the club on Saturday cus she was guest DJing. We never ended up going but o well.
Also here in this bar is former New York Knicks star Charles Oakley. Him and Jordan are buds and both are pretty drunk. I forgot to tell you they had Karaoke this night. Oakley starts singing Afroman's "Because I Got High" and Jordan is laughing his ass off. When Oakley finished singing I asked if I could get a pic with him. He was cool as shit as well. It was kinda funny.....Tall Skinny Black dude next to a short fat white kid.
Russ and I got up to sing Karaoke Kid Rock's "Only God Knows Why" Jordan was shouting at us and dancing and ended up at some point throwing a few goldfish crackers at us. Him and Oakley left after this but the night wasn't over yet.
Russ spotted 2 penthouse pets and we got our pic with them as well. We decided to call it a night and headed home. To see pics from this night go Here

Friday night we went and saw "Starsky and Hutch". Great movie! Ferrell and Stiller were funny as shit. I can't get enough of Ferrell, he will never get old.

Saturday I met up with Woody and Nicole and we went to the beach along with Dave, Andrew and Michelle. The beach was packed full of hunnies. We ended up playing football with like 6 other guys. After the hour long game we cooled off in the ocean....and by cooled off i mean, froze our nuts into our stomach. It was so fucking cold.
Later Saturday night was the formal. It was alright considering I didnt have a date. I started drinking as soon as i got there and started the night off with a 7and7, 2 white russians, and a long island iced tea...Then it was on to the beer.
So...one of the girls I asked to come to formal is friends with Jimbo's girl, Ashley. I asked Ashley why her girl(Amanda) never called me back after we talked a week ago. Ashley says that Amanda doesn't have long distance on her cell phone cus her parents pay the bill and dont want it on there or something and that she had to work anyway. It kinda sounds like bullshit to me and that I'm being worked here but I was like alright whatever. So anyways, Amanda calls Ashley while we are at the formal saying that she just got out of work. Ashley told her to come over so she did. Now Im having fun! We ended up drinking and dancing and stuff and tried to make plans for later that night. I've told you before the guys upstairs know the guy at the door of Adobe Gillas. And our original plan for the night was to go there. So i told her this and she was like, "Well I have an ID but Jimbo and Ashley dont so that would be cool cus I wanted to go there tonight anyway." We make plans to all go home change and meet up at Adobes.
I get back to the apartment pretty drunk already and Woods and Nicole come back over. They dont really want to go out but said they would hang out til we go. I was a little bummed but didn't care cus i wanted to go see Amanda. I change and go upstairs where Greg and Brendan are and the guys tell me they just called a cab and were told it would take 2 hours just to pick us up, not to mention the 1 ride to get there due to bike week traffic. "They're like we aren't going." Being in my drunken state I immediately become Angry and depressed at the same time. I slammed the table and kept hitting Greg in the arm. Now I had to call Amanda and tell her it was off. She said no big deal and we decided we'd talk later. I started to drink myself completely shitty. I was so mad about how things turned out that I just wanted to feel nothing. I was pounding beer down like it was water and at this point it felt like it. I called a good friend to talk to that could cheer me up and calm me down. Thanks for that by the way. We ended up playing fuck the dealer and king cup, which contributed to our drunken state. Michelle also decided to make a call to Amanda's phone when i didn't know about it and left a fucking annoying message. I was so pissed. I dont know what time of night this cus I was completely wasted at this point, but anyway we met these Bikers that rented out the apartment above ours for Bike week, and shit got crazy.....they were beer bonging with us and having a great time. They were crazy. I shutgunned a beer and minutes later went out behind the building and puked. We hung out with those guys a little while longer and somehow I made it to my bed and passed out.

That was the longest one I've done on here but a lot of stuff has happened in the past few days. Next entry should be during spring break when the boys are here.....Peace Out.

Its Wednesday night, pretty bored...Just finished watching The O.C. and Jeff the drunk on Howard. Jeff the Drunk is fucking hillarious. Im so pissed that the Orlando station cut the Stern show. I wrote them an email just voicing my opinion. That whore Janet Jackson screwed everything thing up for censorship. What effect did she think would happen by showing her nasty old tit at the Superbowl? Did she think everyone would think she was cool. Shes not. Neither is her gay pedophile brother. That whole family is fucked up. She ruined so many shows. The FCC cracked down on everyone for her dumbass egotistical prank. Now Howard Stern and his listeners are being punished. I hope Stern gets back on the radio...or i hope that hes still on in Vermont so i can listen to him all summer on WIZN.

Spring break cannot come soon enough. Woody and Nicole are getting to Daytona on Friday and we are all gonna go out to the bars that night. Saturday is supposed to be beautiful, 85 and sunny. Sounds like a recipe for a visit to the beach. Saturday night my fraternity also has a formal in honor of the 33rd birthday of our chapter. Dont ask me who my date is, cus I have three dumb bitches that are all up in the air. Women are so fucking stupid(well most).

I visited Megan last Saturday in Orlando. We layed out by a pool and went swimming. Then her and I went shopping in Orlando with her family. We visited a bunch of outlet stores with her stepmom and stepsister(or soon to be anyway). I ended up buying a watch at the Fossil outlet store. I haven't had a watch in a while and have been wanting one.

Im also looking forward to Tom, Mike and Plumies visit. 9 days and counting til we tear up Daytona.

Other than that, not much else to say......

Another Week come and gone,
Last Thursday I finally got to go home. Although not everyone was able to hang out much, it was a lot of fun. Felt great to get out of Daytona only to get hooked watching the 500 on NBC.

Thursday night I went up to Bunels and played guitar with him and Ben, followed by many hours of the card game "Trumps".
Friday Bunel and I played guitar with Travis Beaudette and then went to Burlington along with Pat to Bretts dorm. We all headed over to St Mikes College where Brett's friend's sister and all her hot friends lived. We got drunk and went to some dance type thing with tons of hotties. It was nice visiting a real college. When I came home drunk at 4:00 in the morning, my brother's party which he had at the house was still going on. I drank some more with some of his friends and hit the sack.
Saturday....Valentines Day....What can I say? The loneliest day of the year if your single. What makes it worse is not having a vehicle to at least find something to do. Hurley and I at least had a genious idea which worked out well. More booze.
Sunday Tom and I hung out at my place watching the race and then headed up to Bunel's for the night and passed out there.
Monday....No one can bring me to the airport? Everyone was either out of town or busy. Luckily Katherine wasn't busy cus I think she was my last hope or I would have had to take a cab. She ended up taking me to lunch beforehand cus lets face it, she owes me. We hadn't talked much lately but I think the car ride to the airport helped work out some of ours differences and hopefully we can hang out this summer.

Anyways back to Daytona I went and here I am, stuck for another 10 weeks. Next thing Im looking forward to is Brian, Tom, Mike and Buns coming down in about 3 weeks for spring break. We will have an undeniably fun time.

The drumset came in this week and although I haven't had a chance to use it yet, I've heard we got a great deal. Im planning on going over after classes today and jamming with Digi.

Im supposed to have a solo flight tomorrow so I wont be drinking tonight....I can't wait to finish this Commercial flight course.

Its Tuesday night.....

Watching Late night Tv, Listening to Stern on my computer, drinking beer and organizing songs on my iPod. Thats right it came in on Monday and I love it! Its so nice walking around listening to all the music I love and not having to listen to all the Riddle nerd conversations. Its loaded up to about 7 Gig already. I dont think Ill ever fill it up.

I got my fake ID last week. So far its worked flawlessley. Worked at Walgreens, Maria Bonitas, Hooters and 7-11 so far. Im sure that it will work in VT cus its a Florida ID. Hopefully me and all the guys can go out this weekend.

Marcus and Tommy called me tonight trying to plan this weekend. Its gonna be a little tough getting everyone together seeing how Tom will be with his big tittied girlfriend all weekend, Mike will be going back to UNH Saturday morning, and Valentines day throws another variable in the equation cus all the guys have girls except Pat and I. Looks like him and I will be drinking ourself into oblivion on Saturday night.

Its Saturday,
It felt great not setting an alarm last night. 6 of us went to a Japanese Steak House, where they cook everything in front of you. It was really cool and delicious at the same time. We were planning on going to Adobes but everyone bailed cus it was too late. Greg, Brendan and I ended up playing each other in a couple rounds of Tiger Woods.

I haven't accomplished anything all day really. Brendan has been gone since i woke up and I still dont know where he is. Greg had a flight so hes been gone all afternoon. Its been a romantic afternoon with Tiger Woods. Downloaded the new video from Yellowcard for "Ocean Avenue". Its a great video! Check it out here . I also downloaded that new Britney Spears video....man that chick is hot!...especially in that video. Some things never change. I've loved her since I was like 16 and still do. I think she could make me do anything.

Thursday night I dropped my electric guitar off up in Ormond to get the intonation fixed, the action taken down, and just a general tune-up. The store was big, really nice and had great prices. Strings were like half of what they cost at Advance in Burlington. I'll be going here in the future for anything I need for or done to my guitar.

On the way home that night I got ahold of Jared Merchant who lives like 30 mins from me here in New Smyrna. His mom gave me his number on New Years Eve, and I finally got in touch with him. He works a lot but we are gonna try and hang out sometime in the next few weeks and go to some bars or something.

This weekend is going by really slow because Im looking forward to leaving here in 5 days! I cant emphasize enough how much I love trips home.

Monday....start of a long week.
I had chapter tonight and realized how much shit I have to do, before our initiation this year. Im gonna be working my ass off, as well on helping recruit, trying to make a large pledge class in the fall.
Me and some of the brothers are thinking of putting together some cover songs to play at a party near the end of the semester. Problem is we all play guitar. We are thinking of all going in on a cheap drumset on ebay for like 250 bucks, and the plan is for me to play drums....this should be fun.
Im still waiting for the Ipod to come in and Im excited to sit in O'Hare Airport next weekend listening to it for a 3 hour layover.
Arrow flight in the morning. Signing Off....

Just finished watching Superbowl 38. What a great game. I was rooting for Carolina but the game was so close it made it intense. Brendan, Greg and I made so much food, we couldn't even come close to finishing it.

Last night's Rolex Race was so fun. Greg and I were completely wasted and all 7 of us were cheering for Car #2 in the pouring rain. #2 was in the lead til like the last hour and ending up not winning it. Thats 2 losses today for me. Maybe I should stop rooting for the Red Sox and they will win the World Series.....just a thought.

Well heres the end of another weekend, and the start of another school week...this sucks....at least im done with philosophy. Gotta hit the sack soon cus Im flying the Arrow in the morning.....Goodnight
