Iron Chef College Edition

posted 03/12/08 @ 11:24PM EST

Before I moved off of Roosevelt Island, I had a ton of leftover food. What to do with it? Let's put it all in a pile, then play Iron Chef! We didn't have a "secret ingredient" that you had to use in all of your dishes, the idea was to just get rid of food. Since I was a college student, the food consisted mostly of things like ramen, macaroni and cheese, and soup. Dianna and I both made 4 dishes, then rated each other based on taste and appearance. She ended up winning.


Here is the master list of ingredients.

14C Floors

posted 12/13/07 @ 9:40AM EST

When I lived on Roosevelt Island, the apartment was really nice. Well it was nice when it was clean. The only complaint I can really make is about the floors. They really sucked. You wonder how floors can suck? Well, when they do not stay on the ground, that is how you know. Here are some pictures of how they would get when it was really humid outside. We would have to have maintenance come in (and they took their sweet time) and tear out the floors and put in new ones. On the plus side, we would get new, clean floors, but it was not worth the trouble.


They would also just break and fall out when they got popped up.

Late Night Croquet

posted 09/17/07 @ 12:00AM EST

Back on Roosevelt Island, Adam, Chris, Jared and I decided to play some some late night croquet in the soccer field.


Chris should be able to make it through both the wickets and hit the stick in one stroke.

Two Minute Ice Cream

posted 05/04/07 @ 1:20PM EST

I bet Yan that I could eat a pint of Ben and Jerry's in two minutes or less. He disagreed. If I finish it in two minutes, he pays for the ice cream and gives me $5, if not, I just bought myself some ice cream. Take a look and see if I did it or not.

Roosevelt Island Adventure Pictures Update

will posted 10/24/06 @ 8:00PM EST

In case anyone is really excited to see the whole two posts made in September, you can see the archives here.
Otherwise, I'll get on with the post. School is busy as hell, and having to do way too much studying. Not very fun, I'm looking forward to Christmas. Are you counting the days?

I don't really feel like talking that much actually, I haven't slept since the night before last, so I'm just going to post this and then go to sleep. I put up pictures from a while ago when Dianna, Rick and I went around taking picture on Roosevelt Island. It's always fun to turn these random picture taking events into stories, so that's what I went ahead and did. Click to see the Roosevelt Island Adventure.
Godspeed.

Roosevelt Island Adventure

posted 10/24/06 @ 12:00AM EST

Come experience an epic tale of drama, magical powers, conflict, handsome young male protagonists, horrifically deformed antagonists, and good old American fun. Who can say no? In fact, I'll also go ahead and promise produce. What other story can promise all of those great features, then produce on top of that? Just give in and read it, you know you want to.


All of Manhattan closes, forbidding civilians from entering and ordering those inside to flee north.

Yan in Bed

posted 06/01/06 @ 10:47AM EST

Let me be straightforward. There is no naked Yan on this page; I realize that would only hurt Will and Beyond's traffic, not help it. We'd lose more people than we'd gain, and the people that we'd gain would be weird, weird people.

Dianna's First Step

posted 03/18/06 @ 4:14PM EST

You might think that it's weird that I have a video of Dianna's first step, since I didn't know her very well back then, and I didn't have a videocamera, but I'm resourceful, I managed to pull something together.

Alien Spacecraft

posted 03/01/06 @ 4:00PM EST

One day an alien spacecraft landed in 14C, but due to some ingenuity we managed to take it over. Now if only we were able to fly it with any sort of efficiency.

14C Assassin

posted 01/09/06 @ 11:45AM EST

Be careful when you visit my apartment, because from time to time there is an assassin lurking about. Just on this one day within about a minute he took out several guests.

Apartment Tour

posted 06/02/05 @ 12:00AM EST

After enduring the cramped living conditions of the 26th Street dorm at NYU, we decided it was time for a change - we had to leave housing. Unfortunately I had finals 'til really late, so I couldn't be too involved in the apartment searching, however Andrew, Yan and Beck were more free so they took charge. After a couple let downs, they showed me this place on Roosevelt Island. Great apartment as you'll soon see. Nice and big. A little bit farther from campus than the ideal, but it's not all that bad.


And here is my room! Nothing special unfurnished, you'll see how it looks when I get the moved-in pictures posted.

Apartment/Midterms Update

will posted 04/01/05 @ 3:20PM EST

Too lazy to archive March, but I'll get to it soon. Good news! We got an apartment!!! We move in May 2nd. It's an amazing place on Roosevelt Island, just a 35'ish minute ride on the F line, right to campus. Or we can take the tram! Amazing place, everyone must come see it when we move in. And bring us furniture.
Midterms are almost done, just one paper and one test left, then come Friday, I'll be free. Well I should get going, cause I have to go see Yuan soon... Hopefully it will be better this year...
Godspeed.
