I dont dot the I!

Wow so I'm actually trying out this whole blogging thing just for you boys and to be honest its a bit less strange than i thought. I'm currently writing you from the land of the fuckeyes where the ridiculous institution was recently ranked number 19 on GQs douchiest universities for the "excessive school pride douche" (a category in which Michigan also received an honorable mention!). The article is here if you are curious http://men.style.com/gq/features/landing?id=content_10779 I would say that my favorite part is where they mention dressing for class like you are the offensive coordinator. So true. I think the biggest adjustment here is how many people wear their OSU gear in the brary and around campus ick. In other disgusting news, one of my classmates was Brutus here for the past 3 years and makes faces when i wear my maize shirts in class.
Anyway school if interesting and busy and im sure ill get used to the excessive OSU pride. On the good side of things my house on Michigan avenue with 2 other michigan alums is a safe haven from it all. However our one ohio housemate recently compared it to a taliban cell which looked normal from the outside, but inside had an apparently distressing amount of michigan love.
Things are def not the same as sybil though and i miss you all and hope you all are well. Although im still suffering from PTSD from the sybil fire and late last night i felt heat coming from our basement, I rushed downstairs to find the culprit....someone was using our dryer. Haha.
Also i'm planning on making some visits to the duece this year so we should all coordinate them. Weekends after exams i have pretty much nothing to do so im thinking the weekends of September 11th (also the Notre Dame game) October 2nd (My birthday weekend) and November 20th (the ohio state game) if anyone else is interested in coming back.
Alright peace out and sybil love you you all

yo yo yooooo

So, we need to be better about posting and checking up on this thing. The white street girls are doing far better at it and i will not let our blog become second rate. James, whats going on with your life buddy. Naynay, when do you start lawschool?

On a separate note, I know that I'm planning on hopping a train over to ann arbor for at least 1 or 2 football games this year. I think we should try and organize a weekend when we're all back. I believe the Penn State game is the "new alumni" weekend or something like that, so maybe that would be a fun time to go? I don't have too much preference for the game (though would like for it to be a big 10 game). Any thoughts? Any games you might want to attend? any weekend you know already is particularly bad? Lets try and get something together and get some tickets duders.

Life in chicago is going alright. Job is tiring me out. Hung out with bunch of michigan peeps last night which was fun. Come out and visit me! I'm bored on the weekends somewhat so come keep me entertained. Alright thats alll for now. Hope this message finds you all in the midst of an enjoyable summer. Talk to you fellas soon..
