Finally registered for the last grass volleyball tournament of the year – Luau 2009! This year, it will be myself, Tony Jachera, and Rob Housing. Come watch us play – $20 for all you can eat & drink. Tons of booze, hundreds of people. There will be a huge beer truck for flippy cup, beer pong, etc. This event will be on Saturday, Sept. 19th (Thanks Joe McGonagee, age 20).

So I was playing some online poker and I guess you can say I sucked out big time! What really happened though was that he raised, I called. I checked the flop, he checked. I checked the turn, he raised, I called. I bet on the river, he raised and went all in, I called and won…my straight flush against his quad aces! Haha.

Kylie and I bought new mountain bikes this weekend. There is a nice 12.5 mile trail near my house that we rode on. I bought a Mongoose for only $120…pretty cheap.

My old alma mater, Northern Illinois University, held their 1st Annual Summer Grass Triples Tournament on June 20th. Tony Jachera, Chad Neimi, Jeff Henry, and myself (all NIU alumni) took 1st place out of 24 teams. It was a great time to enjoy the old stomping grounds with all of my friends!

Hello everybody! It’s time for the infamous Northside Shocker’s Fundraiser! This year it’s going to be held at Krem next weekend on March 14th, 2009, from 9pm – 11pm. I know what you’re thinking, it’s only 2 hours…but remember, it’s St. Patty’s Day weekend, and $30 is nothing to what you would spend at another bar that night. Plus, this is the post party for one of the biggest volleyball tournaments in Chicago, the Windy City Invitational. I hope you can join us!

Tom Higgenson from the Plain White T's
Ryan Star
Tonight I met up with my cousin Jackie who was visiting from New York. She invited me to her friend Tom’s birthday party at Lucky Strike. Yes, Tom Higgenson from the Plain White T’s! He’s a very cool guy and it was really nice of him to let us eat, drink, and bowl with his close friends and family. He’s also a vegetarian, which Kylie liked, because none of the food had meat in it.
Jackie’s boyfriend, Justin, was also there. His brother, Ryan Star, just opened for David Cook in Valparaiso, IN. I bowled a game with them and scored 121…very sad. I even brought my bowling shoes that I just bought. Ryan kicked my ass with his whopping score of 125! I guess I need new shoes

During our snowmobiling trip, we stopped at this bar and they had snow golf on the frozen lake – $5 for nine holes. You get one club of choice, one tennis ball, and you can order a twelve pack to take with you. It takes about an hour to complete. I chipped it in out of the rough twice for back to back eagles!
