Graduation, Pedaling to End Poverty, and Life after that!

So I finally got everything worked out and I'll be graduating (unless something very unfortunate happens) at the end of April. After that I'm planning on traveling around Europe for a few weeks and then it's back to the states to ride a bike from Manteo NC to San Diego CA to raise money for affordable housing groups like Habitat for Humanity and Rebuilding Together, through an organization called Bike & Build.

The trip covers 3,464 miles and last 9 weeks. There are 10 Build days on the trip where the group stops to work on affordable housing projects. Before the trip I will be raising upwards of $4000.00 for the cause and have made a website to help with that and keep people up to date on the trip:

I also recently got another car after demolishing the civic last fall (not my fault and everyone was OK). Anyway I got a 2004 Ford Focus SVT. It's a suped up ZX3 and boy is it fun to drive. Pictures to come soon!
