El Dia de Final

Spending a good portion of your day looking up Lonely Island and Stephen Lynch videos is so incredibly rewarding. Of course, having the free time to do that after finishing all my work is even more gratifying. My story is done, the layout is perfect, my book review is beastly and everything's up on the web site... wow I'm amazing.

The real highlight though: a blueberry banana smoothie from Mixters. It's like eating heaven, or how I imagine heaven must taste like. The brain freeze actually helped me get "Beelz" and "Special Ed" (Stephen Lynch, that disgusting yet oh-so-hilarious scoundrel) out of my head.

Well, there you have it. It's been a fun, challenging, frustrating, yet overall rewarding. And just like last year, I can make this bold yet accurate assertion: I am the king the journalism.

Awkweirdness...

I can't imagine anything more awkward than going up to random strangers and asking them, "Do you know what sexting is?" Especially when it's a mother standing next to her teenage daughter... incredibly awkward much? But whatever, it was an assignment after...

If I sound bitter it's because I'm lamenting the fact that Transformers doesn't still captivate me the way it did two years ago when it first came out :( With a sequel looming on the horizon, that better rise to the occasion to hold my attention and make me happy again.

Anyway, I manned-on-the-street, finished my story of awesomeness, and am trying to figure out a way to get Ritzick... I mean Hricick back for calling me a Commy. Not cool!

Day Three

I'm more than aware of the fact that I'm starting this blog three days into the Point Park experiment (sorry, experience), but I had better things to do. Those better things included but were not limited to going to the Pittsburgh Basketball ProAm Summer League at the Greentree Sportsplex where the best colleges players in Western PA gather to test their skills against top competition. Let's compare: setting up a blog and the opportunity to talk to the likes of Brad Wannamaker and Dante Taylor. I win.

Anyway, that was incredibly fun. Watching those huge bodies just go at each other in a battle of sweat, blood, and brawn from up close, rather than all the way up in the nosebleed seats, was pretty awesome. That's been my beastly experience of the day. I hope there are a lot more to follow.
