I live very close to canada being in upstate new york. There is a canadian band the tragically hip, who is very popular in canada and up by where i live. Most people that i talk to down here have never heard of them before. My mom called me a few weeks ago and told me that in my little town that has never had anything exciting happen in it before, the hip were playing there. I was pretty pissed about this because i would not be able to go home for the concert and i just couldnt believe they were actually playing in massena. she also mentioned they were playing in syracuse too...
One of my best friends that goes to school in pittsburg was coming up to go to their concert in syracuse. I figured i would get two tickets and find someone to go with me. It was on thursday night, the day after halloween. I found a girl to go with me and drive me because i dont have a car and it was all good. I was very excited because i know that they put on a good show. I saw them two years ago just north of montreal and it was one of the best concerts ive ever been to.
On halloween night this girl that i was suppose to go with got mad at me for no reason and decided that she did not want to go anymore. The whole next day during class i was trying to find someone to go with me because i was basically screwed. 2 hours before the concert i finally found someone who knew who they were and that wanted to go. It was time to get going.
The concert was awesome, besides the opening band. they were probably the worst music ever made. I knew alot of friends that were there from my home town and they were all 21 so i was able to drink all night long which was a bonus. after the concert my friend chelsey came back to cortland for the weekend to visit with the rest of us.

Lucked Out
So the other day my friend called me up and wanted to know if i would go eat with her in syracuse that night. I said yes because i dont think i could ever turn down any offer from this girl. Without even asking where or what we were going to eat i said alright and the conversation was over. She called me back a little later and said we had reservations at 7 at some japanese restaurant. This was a problem, i do like chinese food but i cannot do japanese food at all. Because she had already got the reservations i just went along with it and sucked it up.
So it was time go to and we left around 615 so we could be there on time. This was a really popular place so I guess if we were late at all our spot would be given to anyone waiting to eat. Heading up 81 the trip was going pretty good and i was still not happy about the food selection. About half way there, there was a huge accident and we were stopped dead for about 30 minutes. I couldnt believe it, but it was the greatest thing that could have happened. She was really pissed and I was pretending to be, but inside I could not have been any happier. Needless to say we missed our reservation and had to go somewhere else. The choice of the night was olive garden and it was so much better than japanese food!

Halloween Recapp
I really wasnt sure what i was going to be for halloween or if i was even going to dress up for it, but it turned out that i did. A girl down the hall from me was going to syracuse to look for a costume and asked if i wanted to come along so i went, plus i just wanted to get away from cortland for awhile. Being on campus for an extended period of time can get annoying at times.
In cuse we went to two different stores and finally we both found something that we liked. I ended up getting a jack sparrow costume from pirates of the carribean. He is probably one of my favorite characters...probably because i love rum and being a pirate would be awesome.
The only night i dressed up for halloween was halloween itself and it was a pretty good day/night. All my classes were cancelled on wednesday so i got a pretty early start on my drinking for the day. By 8 i didnt even want to go out anymore, but i went over to my friends house and got my stuff together. We ended up going to a party and it was a good time, then to the bars later that night. Classes the next day was not fun at all, but after they were done i slept forever.
