Old Band Memories and Ramblings

So I have been watching a lot of NCAA Men's Basketball this weekend and it has brought back many memories from college. I was in the Marching/Pep/Symphonic Band and so hearing all the pep bands play at the tournament this weekend reminds me of the atmosphere and the crazy trips I got to go on when I was in college.

I may forget some but there was New Orleans, Memphis, New York, Dallas/Fort Worth, Toronto, Indianapolis, Birmingham and most recently I went for the first time not in the band to Miami for UC's first BCS bowl game against Virginia Tech. Lots of fun and craziness. I know I'm forgetting a few basketball trips, but that's most of them. I miss college. Lots of fun memories.

Boston has been pretty good lately, but it still lacks a group of friends that I can hang out with and pal around with. That goes with a new city where I only know my older brother, but I need to take some initiative to make the situation better for myself. We'll see. I have a few thoughts on things I want to do over the next few months, so the direction my life goes from there can be a lot of different ways.

Pretty much just chillin and biding my time until I get things going the way I want to get them going. One thing I know for sure is that all I have is time, so I'm not in too much a hurry to figure things out. I get to work at my pace. I play and practice my music whenever I want. And I go on trips across the country at my leisure because I work over the internet. Not too bad I think. But I think I'm going to work on getting a motorcycle so I can take a cross-country ride with my bro Alex.

Could be pretty epic...
