Going to School Does Have Its Perks...

My professor gave me $10 for participating in a game theory example for my Economics of Global Business class. I suppose that just goes to show you, you should always participate in class -- you never know when your professor might hand over a $10.

BAM!!!

BTW, I'm sure you guys are wondering but I did not get that job that I interviewed for last week. Bummer.

The Cupparty!!


New Jersey. That’s where my friends and I went to celebrate Nick’s brother’s birthday. Unfortunately, he died of heart failure nine years ago. Turns out, his family hosts a huge party at their house every year in his memory. They invite all their friends, family, and neighbors, but don’t worry – it’s no funeral. They had a bartender (plenty of alcohol!) and got a DJ to play music for the party. There were a lot of older people, but it was to be expected since they invited everyone, including grandma and grandpa


They have their own tiki bar. wtf.

Nick was my roomate last year who I told you tried to get into NY Fashion Week. He made it, but was caught by security five minutes in and was almost fined and jailed for doing so. Thankfully, he is still with us today.

The dancefloor lit up


Party people!

The man dancing on the right was Nick's dad, who hosted this party. He partied harder than all of us college kids, dragging unwilling people onto the dancefloor and challenging everyone who was willing to a game of beer pong. By the end of the night he was undefeated. He also called all of us "wusses" for not partying as hard as he did -- and rightfully so.

It was a good night with the Cupparis. Plus, they had a ton of Italian food which I took advantage of.

A week full of pranks

Instead of doing anything productive over welcome week like going to the career center and working on my resume I just pulled pranks with/on my apartment mates. My RA has told me not to put up pranks of him on facebook, so I will just put them up here.

1) Mattressing up the door

2) Cardboarding up the RA - This did not actually work because the RA was not in his room at the time

4)Boxing up our Neighbor's door - Our neighbors are hella weird and they looked at us funny once so I gathered up some girls I met recently and boxed up their door

5) Bottle to Nuts - Another prank on the RA that failed, the supports gave out as the duct tape was not strong enough

6)Spider Webbing - The one prank that succeeded against the RA. Kevin and I broke into the RA's room and crisscrossed his room with yarn. The RA gave me props on the prank but told me to not go into his room and to take the pictures off Facebook, which is why they are here.

The RA was calling me out for my 2 failed pranks, so I had to rub it in

First Day of School/Torture

Today was the first day of class and it sucked. As I am tying this entry I am already dreading going to my next class. Today I was reminded why I never went to class last year. Sorry emoinacloset, though your focus and actions were inspiring, I do not think I can replicate them.

Besides class, however, school is a blast. It feels really good to be back on campus.

Still working on my need list for college though
