The Bow Tie

Today I was at a loss on what to post. Overall it was a pretty bum morning. But this afternoon I received a package from my youngest brother. It was a birthday present. (I knew only because he told me it was coming). I had no idea what was going to pop out at me when I opened that large envelope. But I was pleasantly surprised! It was this kick butt groovy bow tie!

For those of you that don't know, one of my professors is trying to bring Bow Tie Thursdays to the OC campus. A day where all are encouraged to wear a bow tie, big or small, bright or dull, wear a bow tie! I had a non-tie bow tie that I had worn for the first few weeks. I bought the non-tie so that I could test out the look. I didn't want to commit to learning how to tie one if I was gonna look like a goofy clown. But I liked the way I looked (even though I didn't shop at Men's Warehouse). 

So today after I got in from all my classes and a very dull supper, I watched a video on how to tie a bow tie. Then I watched it a second time, and tried to tie mine along with the video.

Not bad for my first try eh?? I didn't think so either. But then I gave it a shot with out the video...

HA! You thought I was gonna end up with a spider tied around my neck didn't you! I think I will be good for wearing this hip puppy on Thursday. I'm gonna be the big boy on campus this week. 

Again thanks Bro for the sweet hip groovy bow tie!
