Days Ten, Eleven, and Twelve...

As I stated when I started this blog... I will try and update  you on the most or least eventful things that have happened (accompanied with images).

I was hoping that I would always have SOMETHING interesting to post about... but unfortunately, the past few days were really uneventful.  I've just been laying around in my bed.  Went to work and went to rehearsal for Hairspray.

Today, however, PJ (my other roommate) and I went to the Cherry Hill mall! I got two jackets since I currently own none! And it's been getting really cold outside.  PJ found this hat...

Then I finally went back to Target and returned the TV I got in Sept.  The backlights stopped working.  After Target, I went to Best Buy and searched for a new one.  Turns out, I got lucky!

Day Nine

Tonight was the first of MANY dinners at Adrian's house.  It was DELICIOUS!!! Her mom made us steak and tortellini, cracked open a bottle of wine, talked about anything and everything.  It was a GREAT night.  Oh, and this was our place setting!

After dinner, I had to take pictures of Adrian for my photography class.  This weeks assignment was portrait/self-portrait... and since I don't like taking pictures of myself, I've decided to do portraits of Adrian.

These were the results:

Day Eight

So... Greg, Adrian, and I went to the Bate's Motel near West Chester, PA  (to make up for our Eastern State attempt).  Unfortunately, I wasn't "allowed" to take any pictures.  But there was a haunted house, a hayride, and a haunted trail/cornfield maze.  My favorite was the maze.  However, the actors were constantly breaking character and kinda slacking on the job.  Granted, we went on a weekday and the crowds weren't that big... but it takes away from the whole experience.  The hayride sets were AWESOME...  and the house was really creepy.  Here's ONE picture I was able to take... shhh!

Day Seven

Breakfast at Angelo's... always a treat!

This place has the best pancakes...!

Day Six

For weeks, I've been looking into the iPhone 4... debating whether or not I should splurge a bit and make the purchase.  And today, I made up my mind.

Mark Melamed and I went to the Cherry Hill mall and visited the AT&T store.  Luckily, they had some in stock! So we talked about options and prices and it turns out, one of the lines on our plan was up for an upgrade.  What better reason to get the phone!

The minute I got home I decided to try out the newest phone feature... FaceTime!

This phone was worth every penny!

Day Five

So about a week or two ago, my sister Diane and my brother-in-law Andrew moved to Lambertville, NJ.  I haven't seen their place yet, so I offered to help them move some furniture up there.  Greg said that we could use his truck... so we took a little adventure.  And Adrian tagged along also.  The drive wasn't that bad, but Rt. 29 is SOOOO LONG!  Once the moving was all done, we decided to get a bite to eat.  I had their famous breaded mac & cheese with bacon!  It was delicious.

After dinner, we hopped back onto 95 and drove into Philly to go to the Eastern State Penitentiary... but the line was WAY too long... so we just went home and watched movies instead.

Day Four

One of the most uneventful days... ever.  I'm pretty sure I laid in bed for most of it.

Adrian (the girl mentioned in Day Two) came over.  She and Greg are really starting to hit it off. Which is kinda cute, but I refuse to be the third wheel  ;-)

We went to the Caf on campus... not exactly the most delicious food in the world, but it's better than ice pops in my freezer.

I had rehearsal for a show I'm currently in, Hairspray (the musical).  It was fun. Tiring, because I'm not used to dancing. I actually hate dancing, but the one thing that cheered me up, is finding a pack of gum that brought me back to my child.

Day Three

I woke up this morning at 10:30... for my 10:50 class.  Rough day from the start.  Although, I love going to my photography class.  We discussed more techniques behind lighting and the development of the photographic image over time.  Call me a dork, but I find it fascinating!

Once class was done, Greg called me and asked if I was interested in going to a concert with him in Allentown.  His friend Carson from home was the opening band and he wanted to check it out.  So, around 3:30 he and I hopped in the car, headed to Philly to pick up some friends, and then ventured out to the Crocodile Rock Cafe.

Unfortunately, traffic slowed us down a bit and we missed Carson's band... BUT we grabbed a beer and decided to stay for the rest of the bands.  Again, I brought my camera along and experimented with shutter speeds, aperture, etc.

These were the results:

Day Two

Today was an uneventful day.  I ingested some footage and matched up the audio for said footage in my film class... then I had my Acting for the Camera class with my roommate Greg.  We viewed our monologues that we filmed the week before.  And of course, the DVD started skipping as we viewed my monologue... and only my monologue.  Maybe it's a sign!  :-/

After class, Greg and I decided to venture down to Vineland to visit a girl I introduced him to.  She and I are really good friends, and I have been obsessed with photographing her... (creepy, but whatever) so I brought my camera along.  However, she was sick... so instead, I photographed things around her house.  Quite successful, if you ask me.

Day One

The past few months have been extremely eventful and exciting for me!

In the month of July I traveled to Africa, London, and took a family vacation to Vermont.

In August I went to NYC and saw a Broadway show.  In September, I moved into a new house with 3 roommates (and a pet snake).

And the month of October has introduced me to a quarry in my hometown that I never new existed.

Starting today, I want to document my life on a day to day basis... Maybe I'll get some followers, maybe not.  But seeing as how I'm online for a large portion of my day, what better way to keep a journal?!

So here I am, sitting in the Rider University library visiting friends.
