1) Surfed without a wetsuit (think cheese grater).

2) Ate a quart of Del’s frozen lemonade in one sitting.

5) Shared a brewski with my Dad at the Chatham Squire.

6) Learned to “leisure dive.” Check it out on my fb profile.

7) Wrote a college essay. Not fun.

8 ) Got my first scar. Cool right? Not when you get it opening a car door…

9) Had my wisdom teeth pulled. Can’t look at ice cream ever again…

10) Bought a sweater from Brooks Brothers. Feelin’ like a BO$$.

18) Bought my first pair of Vans sneakers. #sk8r

19) Survived Irene. Ha.

20) Grew my hair out. Looked like a goon.

23) Agreed to participate in the world’s biggest ponzi scheme: Fury Baseball Fall 2011.
