Egg+Water Balloon launcher

My friend has a water balloon launcher that his mother gave him as an I hope you have fun at college parting gift.  Best gift ever? probably.  More importantly is what we did with it.  Which was launch eggs off in it.  Not those fake plastic colored easter eggs.  Legit egg and yolk easter eggs.  Are we crazy? probably but it is worth it. 
First off we had to compete to see who could get theirs to not crack, using only straws tape and paper. I felt like I was on zoom.  After deciding that our eggs we secure enough we dropped them off the second story balcony. They didn't appear to break.  That was when the launcher came out.
After they didn't crack from launching them down the street it was time to launch them directly to the wall. This time they did crack and not only crack they exploded everywhere,  which made it all the better. Lesson: bored? get a water balloon launcher... the possibilities are endless.

Free Food.

I don't know if there is anything that college kids love more than something that is free. If you don't believe just watch what happens when free shirts are being given out people swarm like crazy.  The second thing that college  kids love is food, something that we never think that we get enough of.  Put those two together and college kids go nuts! Seriously I have seen lines longer than the ones at lagoon with people just waiting for their free hamburger. It is a pretty crazy occurrence.


What does this have to do with anything. Well it turns out that every once in a while I get pretty good at the whole free food thing.  I am not talking about just a piece of candy in some professors office more like those hamburgers that people wait forever for.  One time I went nine days straight of getting free food, I thought that was pretty incredible.


This week I am going on day six of free food, and hopefully I can break my last record and get ten.  How do I accomplish this you might ask, all you have to do is know the right people and be at the right place at the right time. Simple right?

I do it for the stories

Sometimes I do random and somewhat stupid things in my life, since I don't drink I can't blame being drunk on my dumb actions but I figure I can always justify it by saying that it makes a good story.  Such an occurrence happened about a week ago.
Two of my friends (girls) and I were driving home Saturday night at about 11:30 while driving on state street I look to my left and see a white car with two boys.  I decide to just give them a nice head nod,  well turns out that    my head nod is quite magically.  We start following each other in our cars and talking to each other through the window. Then some way or another it escalated into them coming over to our apartment and possibly getting my number?.... I would say that makes quite a good story just coming from a simple head nod.  Also don't worry both boys were attractive and tall! Which makes the use of my head nod completely worth while.  
While yes this could have been a horrible horrible mistake and was probably a dumb idea, doesn't matter because I did it for the story right?

Hot dogs should be there when I need them

There are some people that I just should not go out in public with; it’s not for our sake really but for everyone else around us. One of these people I cannot go out with is Erica Keck my former roommate and good friend.

On Thursday we Erica and I decided we should meet up and go to J-dawgs. Upon arrival we were both devastated to find our favorite hot dog place had ran out of hot dogs!  After a very emotional letdown we decided Brick Oven was a good alternative.

However this may not have been a wise decision.  As I proceeded to knock down an entire glass of water thoroughly embarrassing myself in the process.  Then I also came up with the great idea of pretending it was our birthday so we could free ice cream.  As Erica was discussing how we could slyly hint this at the waiter, the waiter walked by to check on us.  Both of us started laughing so hard, the poor waiter was extremely confused.

After a few other embarrassing events we finally left.  We remember now why we should have gone to J-dawgs in the first place and not been allowed to actually go out in public. So if you ever see me with Erica you should run far and fast.
