Venitian Weekend 2009: Rained Out

Well the Venitian festivities were a giant dud this year.  Everything was rained out.  Docks didn't really decorate this year because of the foul weather.  I had planned to go down at about noon or one but the weather was so bad I called my dad and told him not to bother picking me up.  :(

Venitian Weekend 2009

Hey guys.  This weekend is Venitian Weekend at the DYC.  The thing is that the weather forecast is showing that it will be very, very rainy today.  Keep your fingers crossed that the weather people are wrong.

One Month

Guys I'm sorry that it's been a month since my last posting.  I finished the summer class at Macomb and I've decided to do a fall semester there after comparing prices of pre-reqs at Macomb versus the same courses at Wayne.  It was way less expensive at Macomb so I'm headed there.  The savings should be great!

Sorry.

It's been forever since I've written.  I think it was June 4th or something like that.  I'm sorry.  That was just way too long to keep everyone waiting.  I haven't had time.  I graduated on the 10th, and started college on the fifteenth.  I'm taking a summer class at Macomb.  It's Composition 1.  It's really easy.  I expect to do quite well in it.  More to come.

Sifting Through Old Posts

I was recently going back through old blog posts and I found out that there was a bunch of stuff that is saved on the blog that wasn't actually published.  I have gone through and published those posts so that everything should be online.  I would love for you to take a look through the old posts to see some of the things that are new.  You will notice that they say they were posted on the days that I originally wrote them.  I wanted it to be that way.

Summer at the DYC

This summer is probably one of the last summers that I will be able to spend a lot of time at the Detroit Yacht Club.  I just wanted to remind myself of the fun that I've had there over the years.  In case I am reading this years later, I would like to remember Billy, Brian, David, Clark, Hal, Sarah, Alex, Robert everyone on Slab, everyone from Junior Sailing, the people from swim team etc.  Hope that jogged some memories.  Also remember Jeff even though he left the club when you were probably heading into your sophomore year.

Movie Review: The Pink Panther 2

I found The Pink Panther 2 to be a light hearted family comedy.  Jacques Clouseau is a detective in France that became famous for saving the Pink Panther diamond.  His methods are... questionable at best, but his results speak for themselves.  If you are looking for a serious, 'think' picture, don't look to this movie, but if you are interested in taking the kids to a fun filled movie look no further than this one.  It's in theaters now, but you should wait until it comes to DVD.

My Plans for summer

I thought that I would use this post to talk about my plans for summer, but mainly my intention of staying on at The Grosse Pointe News.  I really love the paper.  Though the incentive of a good grade in school is gone, I have genuinely enjoyed working there and have found a family in the entire staff.  I feel that with so much in my life changing right now, I'd like to maintain the constant that is my job at the paper.  That's about it for this post.

Update on my life

I have been SUPER BUSY!  Between Memorial Day weekend, finals prep, finals, etc. it's been one hell of a week!  More to come.

School's Out

Today was my last day of high school.  I took my last exam and I will be going to the graduation ceremony on June 10th.  It's kind of odd to not be a high school student.  I've been one for four years.  I'm not yet a college student, so what am I?  I guess I'm just a person.  A person looking for an identity.
