Summer Trip




For most of this semester I have been working two jobs. One at a pizza restaurant, where I deliver pizzas. Also, one at a campus carwash, where I wash campus buses and vehicles. I've been working very hard, sometimes the weeks are exhausting and drag on. However, I've been able to put most of the money aside and save it for a trip. My sister graduates on May 9th, after this I plan on leaving for L.A. the next day. I haven't finalized anything yet, but I'm almost positive I'm going to book a flight. My friend, "Smalls," moved to L.A. in January and rents an apartment in Orange County. I plan on flying to LAX, where he will pick me up. Ideally, I will spend four, as Smalls said, "stoned to the bone" days here. Afterwards, I will head off to NYC. Last year I was enrolled at Indiana University. It was here that I became good friends with Sam Behymer. He lives in Hartford, CT, which is only about 30 minutes from NYC. I've talked to him recently, and he offered me the opportunity to stay with him. I'm probably going to spend three nights there, and then it's back to the Midwest. The most exciting part for me will be visiting my high school buddy in California. Ever since I was a little boy, I have lusted over California. The pictures that filled my brain when I thought of Cali, were the most majestic and beautiful sights. Anyways, after this trip it's back to reality. Afterwards, I will be spending the rest of my summer working at Byerly Tent Rentals. This is where I worked last summer. I make really good money, around $1,500 a month, but I work long, exhausting hours. Last year we were setting tents up for a racetrack in New Castle. The day started at 8:00am and ended at 1:30am the next day. Then the next morning we had to be back at work at 7:00am. Just a day in the life haha.

  1. Wow - in Orange County? Stoned to the bone? Will you ever want to step foot in Muncie again? ;)
