The Accident

This past Friday, I was in a pretty nasty wreck on the NY State Thruway. I was headed back to New Jersey for the weekend, and about halfway home things went wrong. A car was parked on the shoulder, and, without signaling or getting up to speed, just pulled into my lane. I had next to no time to react, but managed to slam on my brakes and swerve in time to avoid the douche that pulled into the lane. The car behind me, however, slammed into the back of my car. This sent me spinning off the road, flipping as I left the pavement. Miraculously, I was uninjured, as was my dog Max who was with me in the car. I ended up upside down, clutching him to my chest so I must have caught him as we were spinning. All in all, we were very lucky to get out with no physical damage done. The car is totaled, and I'm still having a hard time believing it all actually happened. Here are some pictures I took at the scene (my phone and camera will worked, my laptop made it too). Looking at these makes it even harder for me to believe that I walked away. Thanks to everyone who expressed their concern, and a special thanks to my parents for coming to get me 3 hours away in upstate NY and to Dayna for carting me around all weekend. And congrats to TKE and D Phi E on yet another Greek Week win!

This is how my car ended up on the side of the road.

Max is doin' alright.

T-Shirt Designs

Hope the new layout is a bit easier on the eyes, I'm sure ill be tweaking it more as time goes on and I'm continually bored.

Anyway, I've decided to foray into the t-shirt design world, at lease conceptually. I don't know if these shirts will ever get made or what, but I'm having a pretty good time laying them out. Here are the first two:

Why, hello there!

So. My name is Andrew Ensminger, and I figured it was about time I got involved in the blogging world, otherwise known as the vomit-inducing word "blogosphere." I really have no idea what I'll be writing about, or how often, but hopefully when I do write it can contribute a little bit to what must be a very dull life for you, seeing as how you're reading what I'm writing.

Now, a little bit about me, so if you don't care, you can just stop here and check back later. I am a recent graduate of Rowan University in Glassboro, NJ. I graduated Cum Laude from the School of Communication with a BA in Advertising. I am a frater of Tau Kappa Epsilon, Omicron Iota chapter. I thoroughly enjoy snowboarding, so as winter comes, if I'm still doing this I'm sure I'll be writing about that. As of now, I have a 2009 Burton Bullet, Moto boots and Custom bindings. I need to get the bottom refinished since a rouge rock took a chunk out of it but other than that everything is in pretty good condition. Currently, I intern at Harmelin Media three days a week, do security at Tweeter (I'm not calling it the way too long name it is now) and am also looking for another part time job in the South Jersey area. Since it's about 5 o'clock and I'm at my internship now, I think this would be a good time to end this post. I want to go home.
