I almost didn’t notice (and probably would not have if I were busier than I currently am), but last week marked that I’ve now lived in Portland for three months. In those three months I’ve been busy enough to nearly forget my own birthday, I’ve looped around Portland on Streetcar […]
Yes, I am still alive, and so is the blog despite any errors you may have seen for a couple of days… (if you didn’t, just pretend nothing happened.) That said, I’ve been extremely busy this last – wow – month, as of tomorrow. Busy enough to forget it’s also […]
Well, this is it. Three months left. It’s been one hell of a five-year journey. And over those five years, there’s been one question I’ve been asked more than any: Why did you choose Drexel? The latest occurrence is the Drexel Subreddit. But, it’s a valid question, and one I’m […]
One of the little known facts about me may be that I didn’t actually grow up in a certain city in Missouri, strictly speaking. I actually grew up in a suburb. In fact, I can’t actually remember if I ever did get to see downtown. My family moved to New […]
Well, kinda. It’s not on some cutting-edge console, doesn’t have 4KHD3DXYZ graphics, nor even some epic score, but it does have really simple controls. That’s a plus, right?

You may know where your towel is, but do you know where you pillow is? If you were in Philly this past Saturday, a pillow was a good thing to have on hand. Why? Oh, no reason in particular… This year, the annual Philadelphia Pillow Fight Day was organized by […]
As much as I do like working at BMS, I can’t wait to get back to Philly. The reason is actually pretty simple: there’s always something going on in Philly. If you spend the time to look hard enough, there is an extremely good chance you can find something to do […]
As the final hours of 2011 slowly tick away, I thought I’d try to recap 2011 as it happened for me. Believe me, that’s pretty tough to do. Sure, there are a few highlights I can [vaguely] recall, but with twelve months, there’s got to be more than three or […]
Today marks my nineteenth birthday (well, technically around 11:30pm is when I officially turn nineteen). Nonetheless, it now means that in one year I’ll have spent two decades on this planet and lived through two centuries. Looking back, a lot has happened in the world in the nineteen years that […]
Earlier this week, on Twitter I mentioned I was planning on talking about one of the greatest lessons I’ve ever learned in life. This is a story I’ve told before, but only to a very small number of people, and usually not in much detail. My idea to write about this […]
