Happy BELATED Valentine’s Day! Yes I did rent a car and drive about 14 hours round trip to see my beautiful girlfriend Mindy Merenghi for a late Valentine’s Day. (more…)

The Who really did a great job last night at halftime of Super Bowl 44. If you don’t agree… well… then something is seriously WRONG with you. I watched their performance last night and loved everything about it. The song choices, lights, stage, the custom Who cymbals…Maybe it’s just that I love good, classic, rock and roll. I noticed many people’s dissatisfaction with the halftime show and thought, ok that’s fine but why? What could have made it better for SuperBowl 44? Then I heard it driving back from my internship today…The final straw in my frustration. (more…)

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted something new. I’ve been busy, I’ll tell you all about that in another post. But I wanted to give you something that could help you be productive today. As the title says it’s a quick tutorial on how to setup Google Calendar with iCal. (more…)

This may be nerdy, but I’ve been thinking lately about the way I use Twitter & Facebook. Before all of these thoughts I had been using Twitter as my main stream of everything. Whatever I tweeted therefore updated all of the social sites I was a part of, and I liked it. It was the ultimate social networking convergence. One simple update to feed them all. Like I mentioned that was until now. I asked myself, ” Is it important to give each network it’s due respect?” Read on to see… (more…)

When 2010 was fast approaching I started to wonder about New Years resolutions. Many made and many never completed. Personally, I know I hate not being able to finish something I started. (more…)

I know it’s been a few days since 2009 ended, but I still wanted to compile a list of my favorite stuff from 2009. For my life, and from my perspective, it was a great year. Somehow I continue to be blessed by good health, great friends, and awesome opportunities to do what I love.  2009 didn’t always go the way I wanted. My girlfriend for the most part is always about 386 miles away from me. My family situation is always frustrating, I got a few bad grades, etc… But those negative things of the year didn’t keep me down, and they sure didn’t outweigh the positive. I turned 22, a wise old age… got to travel quite a bit with John Tibbs and company, made our own cd, t-shirts, etc…  He’s got a lot going for him. I continued to be able to film and take pictures, exploring more and getting to push my creativity to new ends. You can see that soon in my porfolio that’s being built at the moment. Met new people from all over the country and am glad I can call them friends.  Growth is happening continually for me, and I’m glad I haven’t become stuck in a rut physically, spiritually, mentally, etc… I thirst for all of these things. So what encapsulated me in 2009? Read on to see.
