A Weekend Snippet

From now on I need to remember to bring my camera with me everywhere.  I wish I had pictures for this post.  The weekend started late this past Friday as I ventured over to the upper east side to my friend Ty's apartment. (Sidenote: Ty is one of the coolest dudes ever, one of my college roommates and I should devote an entire blog to him.)

     He is currently staying at his Aunt and Uncle's free of charge in a wonderful spacious pad.  I wish I had photos to show.  Our other roommate Cory ventured down from Boston for the night, as well as a friend originally from France but now living a few blocks away.  We started out night with some Jager and ventured south to Soho for a night of partying with friends.
     We met up with some Columbia kids at Welcome to Johnsons on Rivington I believe.  This bar had a great scene, nice folks a $2 PBRs.  Although it is an extreme cliche drinking this beer, on a grad students budget you just can't avoid it.  Over the course of an hour I met a bunch of new people from the Historic Preservation program, and after deciding we all needed to D-A-N-C-E we ventured to Darkroom.
      Darkroom should have an entire post dedicated to how awesome it is.  Its in the basement of a building on Ludlow near Houston.  It has the feel of a classic speakeasy on one side with wide booth tables and wall size mirrors and then an empty area with a DJ and small dance floor on the other side/room.  We danced all around for the next few hours, enjoying the night and rocking out. 
      Staying at Ty's place that night we were able to take a cab back for the same cost of riding the subway, I slept on the couch staying with the two guys I lived for a whole year again.  It was a great night.
