Senior Year…the first one

What’s better than one senior year? two. i will start with the first one, of course:

• Second year living in the Mount
• roomates: Kenny Hiser, Adam Hoff, Mike Webb, Keith Hodge, Dave Mosemann, and for the fall- Mark Huey
• This was the best year living at the mount, i love those guys!
• throwing the greatest Halloween party every, or at least a party i spent the most time preparing for ever
• to be specific, mike webb and I snuck out to the tailgate fields at night and yoinked a whole roll of trash bags so that we could lace the mount with them.
• Adam hoff and I wore black spandex and wrapped ourselves in glowstickes (which was way more difficult than we thought) and we came down as “crazy” in honor of Mark Huey
• Went to Michigan with Kenny Hiser, Mark Huey, and Kevin Robinson, maybe my best road trip to a game yet, stellar guys, had fun, sucked we lost
• Began assisting leading worship on sunday morning with the great Becky Zerr
• missed a bulk of the fall retreat, first since freshman year
• became close friends with Mr. President, Keith Hodge. he is awesome
• Webb had an idea to have Samie M. paint a mural of the PSU logo and the font spelling the Mount, which was quite possibly the coolest thing ever
• We threw more parties: back to school party, halloween, Christmas/ Post banquet(which the Mounties came down in santa boxers, black belt, white tee, santa hat, and candy cane to the song “all i want for christmas is you” by mariah carey), The Jamacain me independent, man party, and the end of the year party
• Met the hilarious Sharon Byrne. Began working on Loryn Way and Keith Hodge becoming a couple, and made Justin Kerekes a 5th wheel as much as possible
• We all went on a legendary road trip down south to meet my infamous best friend, Jordan Spillane, who was indeed shrouded in mystery. This shroud was not lifted after they met  him, only verified
• We went to a skillet concert in greensville SC, and hung out in Columbia SC, as well as stopped in for dinner at Charlotte, NC at Rock Bottom where Sharon discovered a quarter in her drink. crazy
• Loryn Way was the most gullible person i know, she would get set up for “that’s what she said” moments constantly, only to not notice this patter, she produced the single worst one i have ever heard. halirous, but cannot be repeated here
• Went on a Senior Week Trip to the Outer banks with this cast of characters: Lauren Mcnally, Samie M, Adam Hoff, Kathleen, Tim, K-rob, Mike Webb, Ashley S, Karin, Beth, Becky, Edith, and Kenny Hiser. There’s drama no matter what you do, so all considered, this was a great trip. It was a sweet house we got thanks to Samie M. it had a hot tub, pool, bar, grill, was great
• We played croquet on the beach in the middle of a storm, was wild
• We played bachi ball on the beach. Adam told us the waves couldn’t move the balls. He was wrong, though we believed him even as the waves were pulling the balls in. he yelled, “run” we got the point….we lost a ball, however.
• Frisbee Golf became a hit. Adam, Mike, and I designed the course some of you have come to know and love the summer before this year. after an “incident” which won’t be repeated
• Justin K road with me to my interview to Charlotte, NC with the Bobcats. We designed another frisbee golf course on the campus of the University of South Carolina. have played it 3 times since.

First Senior year in the books…..

…and i stare the end of my second in the face, a week away. it’s crazy how time works. I encourage you all to write down what you rememer of your years as well, It helps to not forget the awesome times you’ve had, or cool things that you have endured through. It all will be over soon, you can’t slow it down. Penn State is a great place. no matter what kind of person you are. It has been a blessing to me. One more year to record.
