Lesson Learned
So friends. This weekend something unforeseen and horrible happened to my family. My Uncle Tim and my friend Ben were both killed in a hunting accident

The truth is, I feel like I have started a new life. It is time to move forward along my new path. Sometimes I let old regrets overshadow the bright future I have ahead of me. I’m going to love being back in New Hampshire. I will have the added strength of my amazing friends here in DC, the knowledge and experience I have gained here, and a renewed sense of my purpose.
I’m going to...

The Invite for the Brandywine Thanksgiving Party
Our European ancestors murdered the natives of this country on an atrocious scale allowing us to become developed and powerful, so let’s get together and give thanks that they did it when genocide was still cool! That shit wouldn’t fly today…. Anyway Before a night of magic at the legendary Ellicot dance club in the most powerful city on earth, we invite our closest...

I Love Clyde's
Ya, it’s just a bar and a chain at that. But its awesome that I can walk in on any Thursday night and know half of the people in there. Here, in Washington DC. How great is that? Also the other day I was on campus at American (haha I don’t just hang out there usually) and I ran in to people I knew. I almost feel like I went to two schools for my undergrad. It has always been my thought...

Cycling is like life
jamesnord:
You can always ride yourself out of the bad times. Keep you cadence high, your mind sharp and your arms tucked in; better form and better life are just a few tough days away.

I'm scared
Is it too early to apply for a “real job”? I think I just found one that might fit me.

The Sounds
Maja crawling around stage being a seductive Swedish punk rocker. Oh and that accent? To die for.
I’ll try and pull together some thoughts about the show tonight while its still fresh and my right ear is still ringing haha. The Sounds are from Sweden and they make great music. I want them to blow up so bad. The Black Cat here in DC is cool but I feel like they deserve to perform in a...
