July was a pretty busy month, mostly because Summertime in Chicago is the best. Here’s part 1 of some of the stuff that happened.

Erik and Katherine’s Wedding

January 3, 2014Friends, Wedding, ΣΦΔDean

One of my fraternity brothers, Erik, married the love of his life this past June.

It was the best (and first) nerdily-themed wedding that I had ever been to. Unfortunately for me my lazy photography habits kicked in and I didn’t get a lot of photos. Which is a damn shame, because there so much good and happy things to capture. There were light sabers and inflatable dinosaurs. LIGHT SABERS AND INFLATABLE DINOSAURS! *sigh*

Kat, the bride, is giddy with joy.

Wait, Wait Don’t Blog Me

I got to see a live taping of “Wait, Wait Don’t Tell Me!” with my friends. All-in-all, it was a hilarious and enlightening NPR-ful experience. Definitely would look into getting tickets again.

February Friendsgiving

My friends Ali and Cait procured a turkey a couple months ago and kept it on ice, planning to eventually have a get-together feast with some friends at their home. A good time was had by all, with good taboo games, great food (prepared by master chef for baseball stars Bryan Choi), awful sci-fi movies with great commentary, and good company all around. And it was Tim’s birthday!
