so although my birthday is on tuesday, i thought that this would be the perfect opportunity to sum up my last year.
well last july if you are smart i turned the big 21. i celebrated it in style with my brother, his now wife, my cousin and his girlfriend. let me tell you it is a little hazy and i got thrown out of a few bars. that whole week was so much fun. after that i came back up to ann arbor to what is now my 1st apartment. i got to watch live earth on 7-7-07 which was really cool to see. i remember watching roger waters in the wee hours of the night and not to mention jack johnson and others. after that week i tended to become a functional alcoholic. i sought to broaden my beer horizons by drink beers by the name of bell's oberon, woodchuck hard cider and others for 2.95 at the glorious sidetracks of depot town. in early august i went to bud bash which is like a jobbie nooner although its not on an island. it was great fun. although i made the mistake of not putting sun screen on my back and shoulders. redness and several peelings later it finally stopped. it was a blast but i do not think i would go again. i love beer dont get me wrong but being on a lake for 8 hours walking and drinking was not the coolest thing ever. later in august about the time i stopped peeling was my brother's wedding. soon after a baby was made.
in september i spent most of my time in anna bonanna's garage drinking and playing darts while shooting the shit with susie q and others who occassionally stopped by. there is not much to really report in september.
halloween was a great time. i dressed as a peeping tom. i had the blinds and a fake mustache and everything. i have many pictures taht are viewable via myspace.com/meltedbutter.
november came and went quickly.
december was not a bad month. i was off academic probation within that semester so that was good. christmas was not bad, however i did get wasted x-mas eve and yelled at my wonderful mother for getting lost after i made her get off at michigan ave in detroit so i could pee. new years was also a fun time as anna bonana stole my shots of jager and i partied with my now former pft sup. needless to say bonana did not make it to midnite..karma's a bitch.
january was not bad, it marked my return to snowboarding and a failed attempt to teach anna bonana how to snowboard. she gave a valient effort but it's not for everyone. i did get to hang out in brighton for awhile which is not bad.
february came and went quickly.
so did march
and april
may brought a new experience for me i traveled to Toronto for the first time ever, and it was expensive for beer and gas. i did travel again to Niagra falls. its weird everytime i go, i fall in love with the place words can't explain how beautiful the falls really are. i moved into a new apartment with bonana and out of the hell hole that was pheasant run. it has been a learning experience thus far but only good things have come out of it.
and now we are up to june....june has been an awkward month for me thus far. i have lost my job as a pft associate at circuit city, i have traveled to Cleavland, Ohio for the first time, i am technically now an apprentice for a personal mechanic making alright money.
now randomness of the year: ever since i turned 21 i have wanted to try many different beers. i love beer, not for the drunkenness although fun, but for the pure taste of the barley and hops. i have probably tried at least 50 different beers and have found that i do not like non microbrewery beers unless i have to drink them.
my current favorites are:
magic hat - not so quite pale ale
Wolverine Beer
bell's Oberon
Detroit lager
music wise i have not found that many new bands i like except for city and colour. i love them right now and its so soothing with dallas green's voice.
lastly are my reflections of my 21 year. i feel this year may have been the best. a wedding a new baby, a new life. i don't know what could really top it. i am so incredibly happy now that i live up here away from all the bullshit back home. i have become content with this life. even after getting fired i did not even think of moving back home, well i couldnt kus i have a year lease but thats besides the point. i love this place i love the people i hang out with i love my new friends and old friends and friends i will meet. i hope year 22 will be amazing too.
