Hey everyone, this isn't a big update or anything; I've been swamped with a ridiculous amount of papers. Just one little thing to help "promote" Daily Apple Crisp. I made a "Fan Page" on Facebook with Daily Apple Crisp, so if you guys are fans, I'd love it if you added this to your facebook! It goes under the tab "I am a fan of..." whatever. Anyways, here it is.
Thanks guys, keep on reading! I'll post later in the week (well the week is almost over, so possibly tomorrow). Have a great Thursday!

Pat's weekend: A Weekend in Review; or "Monday Morning Quarterback"
Now, I'm not sure everyone who reads this, but I know a lot of my friends (I won't name people but you know who you are) read this and for one reason or another thoroughly enjoy reading these little tidbits about my life. Why I don't know, i guess my little quirks in these stories are what make them what they are! Haha but you all know I heartily appreciate you reading this. Okay, so onto my "Weekend in Review."
Friday night I went home at ohhh 6:30 or so? Usually my father picks me up around 6:00-6:15, but this time he was a tidbit late due to the EXTREME WEATHER. Me and my friends joked that it was Hoth-like conditions outside (if you don't know what Hoth is, you're not a nerd). The aforementioned link is very impressive and I am quite jealous of whoever built it (keep up the amazing work!). Anyways, we also happened to mention that my father would be coming to Allegheny on either a TaunTaun (Also from Star Wars) or a snowmobile. My friend Alex said he could see my father on a snowmobile. Which would be a funny site indeed.
So me and my dad (well my dad) drove home with all of my belongings and eventually made it home; some parts of the road were terrifying, some parts didn't exist. All in all we made it home to a (surprisingly) calm Erie, well weatherwise anyways. So of course my homecoming included gracious welcoming from both my mom and my brother. My mom gave me the typical "mom hug" and my brother squawked at me (he thinks he is a bird/crow at times).
After these complications, I went out with my two "BFFs" Emily and Erin(n). We went to our usual hangout, Perkins. For some reason we always reside there whenever we plan on doing something when I go to Erie. I'm not complaining as the food isn't too bad, but since it was Friday and I decided to be a good boy and not eat meat (I am now Closer to God somehow) I had to settle for pancakes. After I ate the delicious bread discs, we decided to take a picture of us and somehow we all ended up on the same side of the table for the entire post-meal experience. It was quite a scene, I felt bad for the old people that were sitting next to our table. Although we didn't cause any disturbances. Yeah. Haha anyways, that was a good time all around!
I completed the Friday night by hanging out with Drew and VIDEO-CHATTING with our CUZ Stephen. It was quite a time and the following was discussed: College, Pittsburgh Penguins, Technology, Music, Dogs, Red Baron Pizzas, and the family. It was EPIC. But it was a fun time all around.
On Saturday I went and spent quality time with Mom and Dad at a popular mexican restaurant (I still need spellcheck for that dang word). No, it was not Taco Bell. It was El Canelo (which is a great place, I highly recommend it if you are ever in the Erie area). Though my brother colloquially refers to it as the place with "Grade L" meat, I quite enjoy the place. I proceeded to go to my lovely girlfriend's house afterward (it was a trek) and I watched Clerks II while Becky and Laura fought over Glamour, played Pretty Pretty Princess (I believe Becky won) and of course, Pillow Talking was on the menu. That was a fun time, but I proceeded home afterwards and went to bed, thinking I had to go to Church the next day; I planned ahead for the necessary 8 hours of sleep.
Turns out on Sunday that did not happen. Instead, we went to Damon's and I witnessed, for the first time in my 19 years of existence, my father sending back a meal. It was UNBELIEVABLE, he usually eats anything he orders and never makes a complaint. The universe was not right at that moment and I did not know how to react other than grabbing a tasty roll and buttering it up. I think anyone would have reacted in the same manner in that situation. After the semi-satisfying meal, we went to Wal Mart and I purchased Water and Old Spice Body Wash. Which I used today, it was quite phenomenal! Thought you'd like to know :P. I also got my haircut and met the manager at Best Buy, who shook my hand and told me how and where to apply. I got my foot in the door. We also went to look at a bike because my Dad is suddenly a food-sending-back-Lance-Armstrong. He didn't buy anything yet, but sure is anxious to. Then I watched the Pens win in overtime (YEAH!) and I finally came back to Allegheny College.
That's my weekend in review!
Hope everyone all had a good weekend as well!

NEW TRENT REZNOR/NIN ALBUM
As it is almost 12:30 and I don't feel like finding the backwards "N" character, I'll just say that Trent/NIN has released a new digital album!!! Here's the official news from Trent himself:
"Nine Inch Nails presents Ghosts I - IV, a brand new 36 track instrumental collection available right now. Almost two hours of new music composed and recorded over an intense ten week period last fall, Ghosts I - IV sprawls Nine Inch Nails across a variety of new terrain.
Trent Reznor explains, "I've been considering and wanting to make this kind of record for years, but by its very nature it wouldn't have made sense until this point. This collection of music is the result of working from a very visual perspective - dressing imagined locations and scenarios with sound and texture; a soundtrack for daydreams. I'm very pleased with the result and the ability to present it directly to you without interference. I hope you enjoy the first four volumes of Ghosts." "

Anyway everyone, have a goodnight and expect an update sometime early on this week!

P.S. New Poll, please vote!

Slowly but surely we are going to big and better things.
Hey everyone, I just thought I would let everyone know that my blog is getting ever more popular and I decided that there should be some big changes at Daily Apple Crisp! Now, don't worry these changes will not affect the blogging in any way, shape or form! The announcement that I am proud to make (hahah I am really proud, I'm cool) is that you no longer have to type http://pcanella.blogspot.com.
You will now only have to type in: http://dailyapplecrisp.com
Thanks to GoDaddy, I purchased my own domain name because I love this blog so much that I put my own money into it hahah. So expect bigger and better things since this!
Another idea I've been kicking around is that of making my own blog (and not using Google's Blogger tool). As much as I like blogger, I think I would have more flexibility to design what I want and not rely on the restrictions that are set by Blogger. Plus I can host it myself and hopefully improve upon it. Though this won't happen immediately, I plan on designing the site myself in my spare time; I'll let you all know how that goes.
Also with this new dailyapplecrisp.com, for this blog, you can contact me by sending questions or comments to pat@dailyapplecrisp.com. Its sad that I am excited by getting my own domain name, haha but its a great and nerdy feeling to have my own piece of the internet! Though, I already did in the first place. But, anyways, be on the lookout for bigger and better things here at Daily Apple Crisp! Thanks for all your support!

Home!
Hahah so I'm home because of two reasons. First off, I haven't been home in awhile, and, as it should be known, my family MISSED me hahah. So, it was like a homecoming, well it WAS a homecoming hah. As of right now, 2:44 AM, I am sitting in my brother's room watching Seinfeld (the one where George suggests the name "Seven" as a kid haha). We just videochatted with CUZ STEVE and that was a good time of course. I'm surprisingly not tired at the moment and am on Ubuntu haha. My MacBook is looking a bit jealous.....hahah.
The second reason is I get/got to see my two friends Emily and Erin(n)! We went to our (usual) Perkins and it was a good time as it always would be! Somehow we all ended up in the same side of the booth, which is bad for me because they know I am extremely ticklish (do the math). So that was a good time and I did not realize I missed them as much as I did! Haha my friends are awesome! Tomorrow I get to see Laura! And go with her family to "Long Horn Restaurant" woo! I've tried going there twice and the first time they were not open due to the fact that they don't serve lunch (annoying.) and the second time I had to wait 40 minutes; or would have to and felt that that wouldn't work.
But today was a phenomenal day!
Oh, also I came home because I need a haircut too.
Night everybody!
