First Blog Ever

                My name is Kevin O’Bryan, and I LOVE Oakland!!! I am working for OU Housing (www.oakland.edu/housing) this summer as a Housing Ambassador. I came here right after High School from my hometown of Casco, MI, which you probably never heard of (its right on top of Lake St. Clair). If you can’t tell from the background and the last name, I’m Irish and very proud of it. I love living on campus, probably the best decision that I ever made. I know all the guys on my floor, 5 West, and there are amazing. I love Baseball and I played it for a great number of years (Woot for 2nd Base). I follow the Tigers religiously. I also really like College Basketball, the Golden Grizzlies on the top of my list of course. I get to travel with the team to their tournaments and cheer them on from the Athletic Band, in which I play the Mellophone. I love music and listen to everything from System of a Down to the Beatles to a little Country. I also like Oakland for its academics and expansion. If you’re on campus for two minutes, you can see all these improvements that are constantly happening. While you look, also notice the beautiful scenery (and the obnoxious geese). I love philosophy, that being my degree, and I am always willing to talk to anyone about anything, whether it is politics, religion, or just day-to-day chatter. My other passion is teaching, for I love sharing knowledge with anyone who is willing to listen. I turn 21 this August and will be at OU for two more years before I graduate. I am also a member of the Honors College and love being active within it. Hope that this will be a great summer and I am looking forward to sharing all the great times I have had while I lived on campus with all of you!

  1. I am also Irish, so I like the background! Great first blog! Do you play any other instruments besides the mellophone?

  2. Is it weird that I could probably guess that you wrote this simply based on your writing style?

  3. That's kind of funny. I can't tell if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I guess I am just a unique writer? I write how I talk, so I guess I am a uniique talker too. Also, I can play anything with valves, bass or treble clef. F Horn is my primary. Do you play an instrument?
