I was recently asked If I could relive a moment from my senior year of college what would that moment be? I thought the answer was going to be obvious. So many things jumped out to me. Some really cool things happened this past year: I met a really cool girl...turns out she's my girlfriend now, I also had the best apartment on campus senior year, travelled to NYC to see 2 of my favorite bands with my 3 best friends. I went on a trip to NC with Bri and had the most amazing time, I also went to Philly for a roomates retreat and had a great time in Harriburg and went to Hershey Park as well. And to finish the year off with Dewey beach and the rest of senior week events was a perfect fit. But upon thinking of all the craziness and epic moments that happened senior year, I think some of the times I cherish the most are the times where not a ton was going on. The times that will be forgotten, and the times where relaxing on a rainy day seemed like the most perfect moment.
Senior year was filled with so many great memories and so many crazy nights. But looking back on it all, I really do miss all the small things. I miss the rides with Bri down 83 into the city, or just hanging on in Maculey on a cold winter night with nothing really going on. Being here in Bangkok has really made me appreciate the small things in life. Finally, ending my manic lifestlye at Loyola has done much good for my life. It has allowed me to take a step back and apprecite things for what they really are
I'm a guy who dreams big, I shoot for the stars mostly and sometimes come up short, but I still try. When it comes down to it, I really do just love kicking back and enjoy the waves at the beach, or the burgers at a BBQ. The little things that make you go to sleep at night with a smile on your face. The big things in life will work out, because they always do.
Top 3 things I really wish I could be doing right now with one Brianna Kelliher:
1. Making the drive up York Road to Loch Raven Reservoir at like 1:45 on a Sunday. Bri would want to smoke a cig, so it was certainty a "fuck it" kind of day. Maybe getting lunch at Uncle Wigglys, a nice Turkey sandwich, good veggies, hummus even? soda if I was feeling risky, but then I would just say, "If I'm going to have all that sugar I might as well get an ice cream?!)" So after a great sandwich and some black raspberry ice cream it's off to Loch Raven. Hopefully it would be a great day, with some nice sunlight to get a good photo-shoot in and just hang out driving around northern Baltimore.
2. I would love to be at a BBQ somewhere. The one's we always had in Ahern, just grillen and loving. And of course with some Natty Boh's and some bomb chicken!
3. I would love to be in the small Park on North Charles street, sort of by Thai Arroy. That bench where we would just sit out and figure out the meaning of the universe. That place will always be in my heart. I love that bench.
