The Ballad of Brady

its a miracle!

im b-b-blogin' again!

WOO!

ok, so i dont really have any good stories this time, im jsut bored and do not want to clean my room....

WAIT!

ok, i do have a story.

...

i got my mission call....

and im not going to lie

im actually really upset about it.

i was originally going to the Belgium Brussels/Netherlands Mission Dutch Speaking (which, a few weeks ago, was reorganized and it now is just the Belgium Netherlands Mission, and no longer has any of france in it, and no french speaking missionaries)
and i have been told that i would still be going there. but, i guess there may be some trouble getting me a Visa there. so...

i am no going to the Dominican Republic Santo Domingo West mission, Spanish Speaking. leaving June 2nd.
O_o

i...i dunno what to feel. i mean, YAY, im finally going. but BOO, i dont wanna go there. i didnt want to go somewhere tropical and/or hot, and i absolutly did NOT want to speak spanish. and now i am going to a hot tropical place speaking spanish...

i mean, i know where ever i go i will think was the best mission ever, but in the back of my head ill still think, man, how awesome would it have been if i had gone where i was originally supposed to go?!

ill go where i am called to go, but i think its going to take awhile for me to accept it, and not just get depressed when i think about it...

but, my stake president is a bit on my side, he also feels strongly that i should be going to the netherlands, and is actually doing a bunch of stuff to try and get me a visa there. so there is indeed hope still! haha. i will keep you posted about that. so until June 1st, i will NOT be getting me an HLJ ring, and will stick with my KGW (kies de goede weg(choose the proper way, or choose the right path)) ring and hope :)

on a different note entirely, i have eaten 4 Cadbury Creme Eggs today.

man alive those little things are WAY too tasty. they very well might be the death of me one day...

i want to like...incubate one and see if i hatch a little cadbury creme chicken that will pop out a few eggs everyday. that would be wonderful!

...what would i feed it?!

love?

yes, i think love would work just fine.

ok, thats it for now kids.

im going to go clean my room :(

until next time kids!

2010-03-10T22:43:00.002-07:00

hey kids!

its been 2 months since i last blog'd! im soo sorry!

i always get crabby when people dont update theirs, and then i never do...

anywho, here i am!

i know, im excited to!

i am having some knarly allergies today, so i just took a bunch of benadryl, so if i start to make even less sense than usual, its because im falling asleep :)

ok, so here is the deal. tonight at Beta...hold that thought

here is some backround, i dont think that i have told anyone yet? or rather, told the blogging world.

so i rushed for ΣΓX (Sigma Gamma Chi) the fraturnity at the U that is sponsored by the LDS Institute and the Church. i joined the ß (Beta) chapter and i am LOVIN in. i always promised myself that i would never join one, because the majority of my friends joined them and i never saw them again...they would only hang out with those people. but, alas, most my friends are now on missions and i needed new ones! so, i joined and it is great! i have met alot of AMAZING people and i am having a great time.

so anyways, tonight after our brotherhood meeting, we pretty much just talked about the ladies all night! it was awesome. Croft made this little quiz about dating that was super goofy and sparked some hillarious conversations. but it also brought up some excellent real points. alot of what we talked about was kissing! haha so first off, i found that there are a bunch of other guys in beta who were "VL" or "sweet after mission"! so i wont be the only one! haha.

so, do i want to be sweet after mish?! not at all. but, its probably going to happen sadly! but thats ok, i can handle it haha. i have just never kissed anyone because lets face it, im a pansy! im just so scared that the girl will NOT be so stoked about it or will shut me down.... and we talked about when and where its appropriate, and just other random dating rules. deep stuff kids. deep stuff.

but, whenever someone gives me crap about being 20 and never kissing someone (which, surprisingly, isnt that often...most people actually give me props haha) but i point them out to this lil poem, that is AMAZING. its a great point and think everyone should take it into account :)

The more the dollar is printed,
The less each one is worth.

And so it is with kisses,
You've given since your birth.

The value of your kisses,
A sample cannot measure.

Nor is your kiss more worthy,
If it's said to give one pleasure.

The more and more you give away,
The better your kiss is known.

And to all the world your kiss is
cheap, and your affection shown.

But if you save your kisses,
No matter what the cost.

You'll find as time moves forward,
A chance you've saved, not lost.

And when you find the one you love,
With whom you'll live life through.

Think of the worth of a perfect kiss,
If saved "for only you."

the kid who wrote that was 19, and he knew his stuff kids. for real.

next, some good ole music recommendations that you MUST check out. amazing

first, matthew mayfield. he is freakin amazing. skip the first like 30 sec or so and you can listen to one of his best songs, "Better"

now, one of my all time favorites and a Pandora find, Peter Bradley Adams. This song, "Los Angeles" is what got me hooked! his incredibly smooth and airy vocals, and there is just so much emotion in all of his songs!

one more Peter Bradley Adams, called "The Longer I Run"

im gonna leave you with that for now, but i will sure try to post again soon!!

until next time kids!

speakin of which, i have a demand. you MUST go buy their new EP, called "Abnormalities". its just like 3 bucks. 3 songs. GLORIOUS. oh man. so stoked! i have been waiting for new spill for sooo long!

AMERICAN IDOL!
so happy right now.

there were alot of good'ns on tonight! my favorite so far is Justin Williams, i dont think he will win, but he will go pretty far. im a fan.

ok. so. i have to wake up in like 6 hours to go to institute in the morning before work. yippe!

so until tommorow kids!

anywho,

THE SPILL CANVAS REALESED ONE OF THEIR NEW SONGS from their upcoming album called "abnormalities"

the song is called "Gateway Drug" and its so amazing.

at very very first, i wasnt a fan. it was different from all their other stuff and had a weird vibe to it. but now...now i just cant stop listening to it! it deffinatly has the spill canvas groove and i LOVE it! check it out on their myspace, www.myspace.com/tsc called gateway drug

also, the recorded an acoustic version of another of their new songs called "Parallels and Money"

so good. a little rough, but hey, it was recorded in their kitchen haha.

2009-12-08T22:30:00.005-07:00

hi!

so, i cant possibly express my love for the snow in words.

seriously

i just love it so deeply and passionately! haha and i love to drive in it! the OIIIO likes to drive in it too!

so i am currently listening to the christmas playlist selja put on her blog, and so far i have listened to 2 songs in finnish, and man, what a crazy language haha, but the songs have but super legit. so check that out

also, i dunno if i said this in my last post or not, but i should be able to put in my mission papers again soon! like, january! im stoked!! i dunno how it works though, like, if i will have to compleatly re do them, just redo parts, or if i just send em in as is... ill keep you posted.

as i wrote that, i realized, all the things i said id keep ya posted on, i didnt. so, my room is not clean. at all. and im sad no one called in for rescue crews, it would have been nice! haha

so guys, i really need more interesting things to talk about.

ok. so i have to tell you, my favorite christmas songs of all time.

1-wake up little child-peter breinholt

2-song for a winters night-sarah mcclachlan (spell?)

3-bring a torch, jeanette iseballa

4-what christmas means to me-stevie wonder

5-baby its cold outside

what great songs!

so so so so wonderful

oh! ok, so this guy, Paskal Jakobsen, he is the lead singer for one of my favorite bands, Bløf! he is so good! its a Dutch band, from the Netherlands, and they are pretty huge back their! but this guy...man, i love his voice so much! as long as you can get past the harsh dutch language haha

this is called Rijden door de nacht' from the album 'Helder'

and this one, its all of Bløf, and one of my favorite of their songs, "Oktober"

and last but not least, a new one of theirs, called "De Storm (Geef Niet Op)"

it wont let me embed this one, so here is the link if you wanna watch it

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4bkGdRO0z8

2009-11-29T23:25:00.002-07:00

lemme tell ya something kids.

blog'n is good. for real

and i am so super bad at it,

yet i really enjoy it

so, here i am! i dunno who reads this, and i gotta say, i just hope that a few totally random people that i dont know read it. cut that would just be super legit.

but if i dont say something cool soon, you random-ers are just gonna leave...stick around for a bit! i hope itl get more interesting.

so, 26 days till christmas! almost 25 cuz im writing this at 11:27 on sunday. so. ya.

that is good news

also, i now cant listen to christmas music! pretty much all i will listen to now is Taylor Swift and Peter Breinholts christmas albums, because they are just wonderful!

oh, and to you faithful readers, as to the progress of said previous dilema

no change...

anywho, good news. i watched elf today. for like....the 3rd time since thanksgiving. man alive i could watch that show all day!!

my room, is an absolute disaster.

and im not talking like, cant see the floors.

im talkin about, im loosing desks, some walls, a family of ducks, and im quite sure there is a small yeti hiding amidst the madness. ill keep you posted, if i find a new species ill be sure to post pictures!

planning on trying to start cleaning tomorrow.

that, my friends, is scary.

if i dont contact y'all in a few days, send rescue crews.

and some in-n-out burger, that would be a wonderful last meal :)

so good news. im 99% sure i can re-submit my mission papers in january, and plan to head out april-ish! man alive, you kids have no idea how stoked i am. for real. ill keep ya updated on that as well!

well kids, this has been lame, so im going to go to bed so i dont bore you to sleep....

just wanted to let you all know that i am, indeed, still alive and kickin, and DESPRATLY needing more people to hang out with when i get off of work. seriously guys, who needs to do homework and to to school? lame. come play with me, that would be a much better alternative me thinks.

sounds great.

see ya soon then!

unil next time kids!

2009-11-02T22:23:00.003-07:00

ok guys

i have a story to tell you

a sad story

but sad like tears

sad like "man, brady is sorta kinda a little pathetic" kind of sad.

so many of you should quite enjoy this!

so, this story begins awhile ago. i dont remember when. well i do, but im not going to tell you. it would give it all away

anywho, so back a ways

i was a happy lil camper, i was single (and i have only been single. ever. haha) , and was hangin out will all sorts of people, mostly ones i had not really hung out with much at all! good times. i love getting to know people better, tis wonderful.

so anyways, there was a certain somone there who i knew pretty well but only really saw at school and outside school on rare occasions, and she has always been extreamly attractive.

for reals

here is the sad part.

i have liked her a fair amount since that point. like....a year ago or something.

and i am being a lame little boy. and not doing anything about it.

so ya. sad. cuz im lame.

haha

anywho, on another note, i have another story to tell.

so tonight i went out on my first discussion with the missionaries (i got called as a ward missionary until i leave on my actual mission) and this family is set to be baptized on the 14 of november, which is just wonderful! and we went over and gave them a lesson on quitting smoking and gave them 15 steps to stop smoking in 7 days, and man.

it was honestly one of the most spiritual moments i have had in ages! the faith and hope this couple had was just astounding, they have been going though some hard times and just how they keep on trekin' and have so much faith in the church and in the missionaries, i just love it! it was amazing, and it just made me realize that soon, i will be out there, bringing all that joy to other people! i cant even wait! i mean, i am just to happy right now, and i cant wait to bring all that happiness and more to others who just dont know of it yet! i seriously cant wait to leave on my mission!

last but not least, taylor swifts new songs = love.

ok, well thats all for now!

2009-10-24T12:11:00.004-06:00

so guys, i got a new lens for my camera!

im stoked!

and to make it better, i just got my camera back from being cleaned and repaired!

what a good day!

its a Vivitar EF100mm Macro Lens.

i got it for like 30 bucks and its usually like 150 (which is SUUUPER cheap)

and you can tell, its a way cheap lens. its plasticky and chattery and slow

but from reviews i read its optical quality is comparable to some 6-800 dollar lenes!

so, i just went out and took some pictures, ill post the best one of a bee i got. im stoked to take some portraits with it!! its such a sharp lens!

Not a Monster?

2009-10-04T00:11:00.002-06:00

so guys, good news

i changed my blogger template

what do ya think?

im pretty darn sure that it is pretty legit!

hahahaha oh my i love it soooo much, it took me like an hour to find the perfect one!

so bad news though.

anthony is gone!

yes kids, he finally left on his mission, and now i am all alone!

kinda

i still have alex on very rare occasions

and soon i hope i will start hangin out with selja!

because apperently her friends are also kinda lame and ignore her?

which blows my mind.

who would not wanna chill with her?! she seriously is so fun

and not fake. i dont like fake people

haha

so i have a few stories for the world, but they can wait till tommorow.

because i need to go to bed.

really bad.

goodnight

O_o

Let The Future Pass, and Don't Let Go

2009-08-25T17:43:00.002-06:00

K guys

I have some bad news.

So, as I wrote long long ago, I have wanted to write a song for a very long time

So, I busted out my guitar today and started to play around a little. So far that part is actually going better than I had expected. Im not good at guitar, I can play a few chords, but that’s about it. So, to make it a little more interesting I am veering away from standard tuning and changing it with an alternate tuning, dadf#ad. An open d tuning. So, its all cool, ‘cept in that tuning I only know 2 chords, but no worries. Im not too good at strumming and such so im gonna be picking(I think) and that im semi good at and gives me more options….so I kinda have the beginning of what I think wont suck too bad.

But heres the deal

I have never had a hard time writing lyrical things, like poems. Ever. I have always just been able to spew out a pretty good piece of poetry at random, without any sort of reason or inspiration.

But of course, when I finally have even just a little bit on the guitar, I cant thing of even a single word.

Boo

I don’t know why this is happening, but its upsetting me

So, my plan is to just finish up the guitar part, and then record it. So that way I have the entire musical part done. Then maybe by then I will be able to come up with some hopefully mediocre lyrics? I dunno. Ill keep y’all updated though.

I have heard it gets easier to write songs the more you do it, but I think my biggest problem is I have very little instrumental talent, so its hard to make something with the 5 chords I know.

Anyways, as I said ill keep ya updated, maybe put a little clip of the begginging on here or something. All I can say is if I do that I would really appreciate some feedback (I know, I HATE when people complain that no one ever comments on their blog and such, but If I do something where I honestly would like some feedback, please give me some J haha )

Anywho, I don’t really have much else to say

Im crabby because my internet has not worked for 3 days, im currently typing this in word so I can paste it to my blog whenever it decides to work again….

Selena Gomez is so freakin attractive. Just incase you forgot.

And twitter is being freakin lame today. Im not getting anything and it wont send any of mine

Bugger.

well, sorry this has been a really lame post. but alas, im am currently writing a pretty dope one. so dont even worry

unil next time!

Man Talk

2009-08-16T00:52:00.002-06:00

wow

it has been a long time since i have really blogged!

dont worry guys, im still breathing!

but ya know, annie is the only one who has updated really

props to you annie

props to you.

but ok, so i was going to bed last night, but instead watched nearly every single one of Selena Gomez's video blogs and interviews on youtube?

why you may ask?

well, i wasnt tired, so i had watched "the princess protection program" on my computer and had a sudden relization

i am sad to say, and never though i would say

it hurts my heart so,

but

i am not going to marry taylor swift.

im going to marry selena gomez

haha

ok, so hear me out

as we all know, there is a HUGE difference in the these words:

hot

beautiful

cute

pretty

attractive

HUGE

if you are a guy, you know

if you are a girl, you might *kinda* get it

but prolly not

so, let me explain

i am physically attracted to cute girls

why?

i dunno

but ok

here are the best definitions i can muster

pretty-

ok, this is one girls use alot to describe other girls.

guys know that this is not a good thing

if a girl says her friend is really pretty, a guy will immediatly think

"oh ok so she isnt hot but i wont be scared to look at her"

pretty usually means they are much less than spectacular.

but, only if a girl says it

if a guy says it, its still on the lesser scale, but not nearly as much

we men trust the judgement of our fellow men

cute-

ok, i have no idea how i am going to explain this one

ill explain the others first, that will help

hot-

ok, hot is where they are just smokin!

as in, they INSTANTLY grab your attention at how good lookin they are

often times, hot is very barbie-ish and fake

hot is extreamly superficial

if i guy calls you hot, its for sure a complement but with a hint of "you look toooooooo good"

mostly

again, these are hard to explain. ask me questions to clarify if you have them

beautiful-

one of my faves

so to me, a beautiful person is attractive from the get go, but more so with time

and they dont look fake or barbie-ish, they are just all around extreamly good looking.

not saying you cant be beautiful from the start

its just....i dunno

if a guy calls you beautiful, you should take it as a serious compliment, because that is some awesome praise! good good good good.

honestly the highest you can get.

beautiful also encompasses the personality of the person to a degree, but doesnt have to.

cute-

in a way like you would say a kitty or puppy is cute.

man, i really have no idea how to describe this.

lemme give some examples

hot -- megan fox, hayden panettierre (ya i cant spell her name...), emma watson, demi lovato

pretty -- miley cyrus

beautiful -- bekah davis, julia dahdah, this one is more *personal* to the beholder...haha

cute -- selena gomez

attractive-

forgot to explain this one.

it is kinda all of them

not so much hot though. i would NEVER call taylor swift hot, but oh my goodness she is soooo attractive!

but still, all the above people are attractive. again, this one is a little more dependent on the beholder, but to me if i call you attractive that is pretty much the highest praise you could get from me, even though i made it look easy to be attractive, i dont use it lightly.

girls, just think like us men and you will understand all of this....

haha

but back to my original thoughs, selena gomez.

i always have been waaaay more attracted to the "cute" look than anything.

like, if you look at selena gomez she is so freakin cute. and sooooo attractive.

taylor swift, while so attractive and quite beautiful, is not so much cute.

and selena gomez has always been close second to taylor swift (sorry cassadee pope(who is hot))

but now, selena has taken up 1st place.

ok, so ya, this has been an uber superficial blog, but its something i just felt that i needed to share!

So, The Codex Alera Series.

SO AMAZING!

i am requireing all of my blog readers to head over to the nearest book store or library and get the first book, "Furies of Calderon"

so so good.

yes, its a fantasy book

and the magic is super cool

ahhh

im in love

but, the books dont have a map in them...which SUCKS. because there is a ton of stuff that you need a map for, and its hard to keep track of things without one. so, i googled for a map and found this dude on flickr who made all these maps

i could kiss him.

ok, no i couldent, but i was just overjoyed to have a map! so i am sharing it with you.

so, again, go NOW to get Furies of Calderon.

and just ignore the cover of the book, i thought it was cool-ish, but after reading the book, what is depicted on the cover of the book never actually happens, and even if it did its a small part of the book....

and if you are still reading this, i am mad at you because you havent left yet to go get the book....

Happy Camper?! Yes, Yes I Do Belive I Am!

2009-05-03T23:52:00.002-06:00

so, me jocelyn, jeff, nick, suzanne, kevin, john, alyssa, and gail all headed off to the sand dunes!!

so epic

lots of fun!

haha i got like 20 min notice, and we put all the stuff from kevins truck into the space van and went off! got there and set up camp and headed out to the sandy wilderness and had a party flippin and jumpin off the dunes!

went back to camp, ate, made a bonfire with like 40 ft flames....

then played sardines till we gave that up because it was redicuosly hard....

then went and played red rover

which ended ended up eith only 2 black eyes and 6 stiches!

so no worries!

had the apocalypse at the sand dunes at night with howling winds and rain!

thank goodness for the bed in the space van!

ok, so now the point of this post

i just have to say that i am a happy little boy

LJAK? Maybe.

2009-04-22T18:42:00.004-06:00

ok guys, i am super bad at blogging

and yes, i am aware that i start pretty much every single blog post like this, so i am sorry about that... haha

but it is true

and you know it.

so anywho, i really wanna write just some epic blog post today, to maybe kinda make up for my horrible habbit of...well, of not blogging! haha

so i am at the library, because my computer is in my living room and wireless internet is just uber slow and i cant handle it. and i need a new book on tape to listen to while i work, i am almost done with all the harry potters now haha.

so the keyboard here is knarly....its huge, and stands like 3 inches above the table so my wrists already hurt, making me a sad panda....

so i have a story for you all. one you may not belive! i mean, i, after all, barely belive it!!

...

my room is CLEAN!

yep, you read that right folks. clean. well, except jasmines cage, but hey, one thing at a time...

so i got a new job. i now have like 3 jobs....haha it makes me feel special cuz i just read jocelyns blog about how she needs a job way bad and she gets an interview and realizes she really does not want that job...haha. but i now work at Craig's, i work for my moms handyman guy up at her shoping center, like painting and cleaning and such. and then i work for my mom where at that same shoping center where i have to wake up at an unholy hour of the morning to empty the trash and make sure theres none in the parking lot and such....yup. great fun, just like it sounds...hahaha but i get paid well for em all! so soon i will have some money! yay!

so kristin, after how hot today was, when are you opening your pool? haha

ok, so another story. yes, it might be lame. decide for yourself...

haha

anywho, so last week good'ole anthony went outta town, to st george, and it sucked might i say....seriously, like the week i needed friends and stuff more than anything, anthony leaves and the rest of my friends chose that week to be the one week where they cant hang out (or cant hang out with non-college folk) even more so than usual. this was a bummer. so i spent all week being a little mopey because no one wanted to play....

until that saturday. i finally get ahold of some people and they are playing at jocelyns house in the sunshine and it was glorious. but alas, they all left to go to some dance at the U. except jocelyn, but she was haning out with some of her girls so no luck there...so again, no friends....haha

speaking of jocelyn not playing, so hear this. apparently long ago when me anthony kristin and joce went to sushi happy hour, before that joce and kristin were watching gray's at her place, but i was not invited, which i dont mind they were just finishing it up when i found out and then we were going to get some sushi. so we go get the food. which was amazing. and then joce drives us out by skyline to get a slurpee at a 7 11 because they had what jocelyn thought was the most incredible slurpee ever. and yes, it was good, but i wouldent drive out there to get it....

anyways, im going of track. so she takes me back home first and i supposed they were just going back home as it was a little late. so the next day i find out RIGHT when i got outta the car joce asks anthony if he wants to go to her house and watch more greys with her and kristin (which kristin apperently VETOED and so he went home as well. but they didnt ask me...

so i have to ask...do i smell or something? hahaha cuz just tell me...i can take it like a man...haha

but, maybe it has to do something with how joce has been with anthony the last lil bit....hahahahahaha

ok, so anthony has been talkin about how uber extra friendly she has been towards him latley. just talking to him a ton, texing him at random, and like just wanting to talk and talk and talk....which is something joce NEVER does. to either of us. so it was just weird. and he just talks about all the outta the ordianry things she was doing...hahaha

so, i need to change up this post.....for no reason i have talked alot about joce....hahaha

i dunno why.

so i have something to tell you

and i dont really want to because i feel super lame about it.

really.

and because i dunno who reads this...oh well!

and random, this keybored has one of the super lame backspace keys that is really really tiny, and i keep missing it.

so this post prbably has a plethora of typos.

like, mucho more than usual....

which, as my loyal readers know, is ALOT

haha

ok, so back on track...

(yes, i did just have to scroll up a bit to see what i was just about to say....man im lame...hahaha)

so, a few weeks back, i commented on my good friend tims wall (cassandra taylor) and by wall i mean her profile picture...haha

it was of her and some unknown girl, who, was super super attractive.

and then she added me!

happy camper was i.

haha

so then we started texting and we talk all the time and she is just super awesome.

i call her james.

but, lemme say i did not thing that it was possible to like someone so much when you havent even met them....

hence, i feel lame.

i mean

i like her pretty much as much as a person possible can without ever meeting them

so ya.

mock me all you want.

but its true, she is freakin awesome.

so random side tangent

the kid sitting next to me is super awkward and has been playing like super lame games on the computer forever. like, this weird like washing a dog game...and its lame. but point being, man alive he needs some deoderant....badly. ugh.

anywho.

i was getting really excited about the length of this post. but then i realized that half my lenght is because im weird.

and split up everything

like this.

haha

but i like doing it this way.

so i shall continue.

so, i lost the game.

so i start like everything with so

this is lame

so i will try to stop.

man alive i have already failed...

hahaha so i texted my sis heather today, and just said i miss you! or something like that

and oh my, she called me right then and was just chatty chattty chatty!! hahaha she just wanted to talk and talk! it was so funny.

so i need something fun to talk about.

ok, the office. i want your thoughts on where its going! like what do you think about the whole Michael Scott Paper Company? i think its like the funniest thing ever. i LOVE it. its a great new turn on the show and i am a FAN

next, american idol. so if y'all watched disco week....

OH MY GOODESS! Adam Lambers BLEW me away. the first time anyone on that show, ever, gave me real and true goosebumps it was so good. he is absolulty FLAWLESS! and if you are one of the dumb people who dont like him, then first of, get a new head, because yours is broken, and second, you cannot deny that he is absolutly perfect when he sings. look at the preformance. he didnt even kinda miss anything. it was PERFECT! haha i would almost become gay for him.

really

so so good. after it, i just watched it over and over and over and over on my DVR. and i just kept getting better. it was pure magic. for reals guys. perfection.

and i agree with anthony, WHY do they have to bring paula back from the dead eery week? serisously she is so outta it all the time....

man i really do need to do this more often. i know i have like 1223943 things to talk about, but since i waited so so long i have forgotten everything by now and it is just not so cool....

random thing about me.

i am OBSESSED with ginger snaps. if you ever wanna make me super happy, bring me ginger snaps, or kumquats. haha

so i only have 12 min left on this comp. so i am going to just kinda ramble for 12 more min...

not like i havent been rambling, but i...never mind. just keep reading

it might just be the most amazing little bit of writing that you wil ever read.

probably not

but maybe.

just maybe...

anywho.

oh! alex, if you still read blogs, is anywho ok? just wonderin....

oh man so do i have a story for you!

...

ok, so not really. i was hoping that would give me some inspiration about what i should talk about.

it didnt.

oh! ok so i saw 17 again with anthony.

it was, i must say, quite incredible!! oh my, i used to really kinda dislike him....but he actually proved, with this and hairspray, that he actually can act!

and oh my it was hillarious. so many just super awkward moments and funny funny situations and lines and...oh my. so so good. the biggest bummer about it? i had jan from the office in it.

and i dont really like her all that much.

mostly because i see her, and thing of jan from the office....

does anyone like jan? because man, she is crazy....

woo! ok so no one wants this computer, so i was able to extend.

good news folks.

now you get to read even more of the random ramblings from me!

i know, i know. it could be life changing.

just try to hold in all your excitement.

actually, dont. it would make me super happy if you just jumped up and danced with all the absolte joy and happyness that you feel now.

so do it. let loose!

ok, back to my life.

so i just got a seriousr craving to go to a beach. really bad. man alive how i want to just play in the water....

bear lake party. this spring. it WILL HAPPEN this time. for reals. ill make sure of it.

so i think i found my calling.

i am going to write really random childrens books!!

haha, you know how i am pretty much the worlds best on the spot story teller?

well am.

hahah

so i am going to do something about it!

i am going to actually sit down and write a good ole childrens book

and then james is going to illustrate it!

haha

i think it is going to work out quite well.

so i have found a new pet peeve.

i really really really dont like when people whine that no one comments on blogs....

yes, i LOVE LOVE LOVE comments.

but if i dont get many,

meh

oh well

i guess it was not a good enough of a post to warrent a comment!

i mean, i am bad at commenting on blogs, because i will only comment it i really loved somthing about it, i want to make a lame joke about what someone said....

so, in short, if you want comments, dont whine and ask for em. because people still read you blog even if they dont comment. which means i need to comment on Annies more. because for real, she has the BEST posts ever. they are just random and fun and full of adventrue!! not just a long rant about "my life is a bummer" or "pity me" or just lame long lists of things to complain about....

and yes, i did my fair share of whining.

but im funny about it

just remember that...

hahahahahaha

so again. if you want comments, write a good post.

and i am a horrible example, because when i post (which is rare, but will hopefully change) i pretty much dont talk about anything....but yet, i think "man, that was an AWESOME post..." but i go back and read it like the next day and think, man alive i didnt say anything in that long post...

or rather, that short post....

haha

but so far i do belive this to be a good one.

so, good news. today, coming home from work. i saw a guy in a bear suit. just walkin down the street.

i wanted to go and give him a hug.

ok, no i didnt want to.

but still. i thought it was cool

hahaha

OK so now what alot of you have been waiting for...

why am in not at my 1st day at the MTC right now?

well, im not going to tell you

OH MY! a guy across from me (like the guy who is super white but thinks that he is black? like all the bling and hat and baggy clothes and such?) ok well his phone just went off. and it was totally blasing "womanizer" by brittnay. wowsa.

ok, back to my story. so again i wont tell you. i have told 2 people, soon to be 3. and that is all that will know.

so dont ask.

but, there is just something i had to take care of (no, im not like a felon or porn addict or anything so no worries) and i also need to make some more money.

so lets just leave it at that. i will let ya know when i leave when i know. anywhere from 2 months to 12 months. so i will let you know

ok well the computer is booting me off in like 30 seconds so ta-ta for now!!

peace out everyone!

until next time kiddies!

2009-03-23T09:10:00.004-06:00

ok, so i am really bad at blogging.

really.

so, i wanted to write like twice a week.

i havent.

obviously.

haha, ok but i really wanna try harder before my mission.

anywho, right now i am in Albany new york, with my sister, bro in law, and nephew! mason, my nephew, is pretty much the cutest little thing ever. oh my, he has bright red hair, and is obsessed with balls and cars. he loves to throw balls across the room and it is the cutest thing!

so on saturday, we hit up the Hill Cumorah, the Palmyra Temple, and the Sacred Grove! it was so incredible! i loved it! so much! i am going to put up some pictures a little later, but they are going to be on my other blog which i created awhile ago but i havent really told anyone about. so it is http://brm-photography.blogspot.com/ and i am just going to post some pictures that i take! so check it out and follow it!

so this weekend, i have taken so many pictures in new york! i have filled up 2 2gig memory cards, and 1 4gig card! granted, every picture i took saved a jpeg and a raw file, so that took up a TON of memory, but it will be worth it! raw is so much better!

so, if for some reason you dont know, my mission farewell is April 19th, at the church by clayton. it is like 1500 s and 1900 e or something like that....its big and white. haha

so i need something fun to talk about. because lets face it, my blog is not all that exciting (except that its MINE, and i am pretty darn special!) i mean, annie talks about some seriously random things, and i ALWAYS read it with a huge smile and it is just so entertaining. mine is just...me. being lame. haha

oh, and if you see alex at all, give her a hug. i think she needs one.

oh, and do any of you readers have a problem seeing my layout, the sad fish? my sisters computer doesnt like it so much and it has all these weird things at the top....lemme know and i will change it if its like that for alot of you.

well, until next time!

Wheel of the World

2009-01-16T01:35:00.003-07:00

ok.

im making a new years resolution...2 weeks late. to update at least twice a week.

they probably wont be very fun...haha. all i do nowadays is fill out crappy government forms so i can live in belguim and the netherlands for 2 years. and that sure is fun...

not.

so, im really obsessed with american idol, especially the ones that even i feel awkward for them...oh, but what fun it is! and just the whole music competition, is just so, fun to watch! lemme expand on my feelings.

so, as many of you know, last year, me and my daddio went down to california, (much to lakes displeasure) and i auditioned for this reality tv show called "high school musical: get in the picture". it was some good times. waiting in endless lines in blistering heat with a whole bunch of teens. what fun! so we drove for like....12 hours straight from SLC! it was some good times, and we arrived at our destination at like...5am. we were about in the halfway point in the line. so this competition was kinda vague on what it was all about, what we did know though was that the winner was going to become the next member of the "HSM" family. but it would be some sort of singing/dancing competition. so, i like to think i can sing, and if i was terrible my dad sure wouldnt have drivin 12 hours to take me there...haha, im not the best but im not tone def for sure. but, as many, many of you know, i am 100% white boy, i cannot dance, even the amazing mr. mcclellan said i was his hardest subject to teach to dance when i was Ryan in HSM(i have some vids on facebook and youtube if you wanna see my "dancing"). so, that would be an adventure. so back to the story. we got in line, and there was another guy my age right next to me in line, named Jacob Haren. and oh my, we became fast friends. it would have sucked being in those lines without him! we talked and sang and just had a good time! ( OH MY GOSH JACOB! ITS NICK LACHEY!!) hahahah, oh man good times! so when it finnaly got to audition time, we sang to some girl (there were all sorts of these "booths" with people in them that you sang at and auditioned. so got to my station and sang some songs, and so did the other 2 that were in my little group. one guy got through, and me and the other girl did not. i guess i just wasnt what they were lookin for!! its a thing that you can be good, but if you dont fit a profile you are a no-go. and thats how american idol kinda all plays into this.

i have heard alot of people talk about the process, where there are some who have incredible voices, and will be turned down just so some horrible person can be on the show instead. so, not only do you have to be good, its also just a load of luck! no ill feelings about not makin it! jacob made it through the first 3 rounds i think...oh, and he also played ryan in HSM on stage, so pretty much we are the coolest. haha.

i was sad i didnt audition for american idol when they came to slc, i mean, i could have walked to the auditions...but i just...didnt. and i have my mission coming up so maybe in 2..or 3 years!!

speakin of my mission, ok. so i havent blogged since i got it...wow.

im bad at blogging.

so, if you didnt know, i got my mission call to the Belgium Brussels/Netherlands Mission Dutch speaking!! so now im just working on getting my visa so i can live there...haha. i leave for the MTC (missionary training center) April 22, go into the field june 23rd, and come home April 27 2011. so i will be gone for 2 years and 5 days. or 735 days.

for those who arent LDS(mormon) or familiar with them, a mission is where i will act as a representative of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and i will go out and preach the restored gospel as we belive, and i will do this for 2 years. you are always with your companion, another missionary, and it is just an awesome thing! any questions just ask!

so i am super pumped for that. and im really excited to learn dutch. it is such a knarly language! i hope i can get it down!

right now, im listening to Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift. what a GREAT combo! man i would marry any of them witout hesitation...mostly taylor, shes my age. and so attractive! man, i cant handle how attractive she is...

i got skype. so skype me. brady.macarthur

so in the next little while, i am going to go to cali (for real this time) and visit jacob, and alec. so if your in, lemme know. we should do it soon, while gas is cheap!

so, i am here for 3 more months here. if anyone wants to hook me up on a date or 2, lemme know! haha (i know jacob does...!!haha)

i got a new electric razor to shave my peach fuzz. i am very excited about this.

man, my blog is more lame then...not exciting things...haha, i tried to come up with something clever, and it failed. as you well know.

i lost the game.

whipped cream(dont ask)

so now i will leave you with this.

Oktober overvalt ons ieder jaar
We kijken naar elkaar, naar een overvolle zomer
En we zijn alweer veranderd
Maar het voelt niet meer vertrouwd
Nu we plotseling beseffen dat wij onszelf niet zijn
In oktober
Oktober is de wreedste maand oktober
Met de dingen die voorbij gaan maar wel ergens blijven hangen
Ze komen steeds weer bij ons terug
Ergens in oktober
Oktober overvalt ons ieder jaar
We blijven bij elkaar na een veel te korte zomer
En we zijn alweer veranderd, niet ten goede of ten kwade
Maar veranderd niettemin
In oktober
Oktober is de wreedste maand oktober
Met de dingen die voorbij gaan maar wel ergens blijven hangen
Ze komen steeds weer bij ons terug
En meestal in oktober
Meestal in oktober

lyrics to the song "Oktober" by the band BLØF

until next time!

Because Every Pretty Girl Deserves To Go To A Ball....

2008-12-22T17:53:00.001-07:00

hi

im sorry. i told you all i was going to post again super soon.

i didnt.

my bad.

so anyways, i dont really have much to say.

thats actually a lie. so first off, im just waiting for his mission call! its so crazy that just a few people get to decide where i go for 2 years of my life! crazy. but most likley i will get it on christmas eve! how cool is that?! i am super excited.

i love snow. more than kids love santa, and anthony loves batman. really, its the best stuff in all the land! and yesterday on the radio they said we were supposed to get 4-6 MORE inches. all it has done today is been warm enough for the snow to melt and snowed barely enought to stick to my car. booo.

so good news. my little nephew and fam are coming in town tomorrow morning!! hallajluah! to see them go to their blog! they are under my friends as april danny mason or something like that...

my phone broke. im very sad about this. why couldent it have just waited till right before my mission? instead of a few months before it. lame! but my dad got the new blackberry storm from work, and heather got it from santa early, and so i got my dads old motorola Q. it is ok, but it has the WORST battery life ever. i was on pandora for like 1 hour and the batt was almost dead already.

so currently i am at my place of employment, looking out at the shop, seeing how i need to clean the floors. but im blogging instead. haha, ill get it done. but probably not till the last second.

i really wanna go to the peter breinholt concert, but i dunno if i can. it is at 730, i get off work at 7, but...i doubt there are tickets left and i have no one to go with. oh well i guess.

and i am aware this is a lame post. get over it. haha

oh, and im going to marry taylor swift. she doesnt know it yet, but she will....she will....

Now playing: Citizen Cope - Brother Lee
via FoxyTunes

ok guys, here i am like i promised! so i seriously need to blog more. i feel lame if i dont. so i will try to.

so good i haven't even started, and i dont even know what to talk about.....

well, Christan bennett is finally starting up his bluegrass band, which freakin excites me like you can imagine. being in a bluegrass band is like....a dream come true! hahaha. so i am very pumped for that!

----------------
Now playing: The Weepies - Dating A Porn Star
via FoxyTunes
----------------

ok, random pet peeve i just realized. its something ppl have started doing, as in girls. pretty much making at least one word in every sentence a completely crazy color. ahhhh! i dunno why it bugs me, but i would think it would be a huge pain to do, and it makes me forget what im reading, and sometimes its a color that blends with the background and you just have no idea what it says. its a bummer.

so i saw the dark knight for a second time a fes days ago with good ole' chloe. man that movie is so freakin incredible. it was for sure better the 2nd time! oh, and we watched juno again, and that definatly ranks up very high in my favorite movies.

so i am going to provo on saturday to visit bekah and the rest of the provo people, so if any of you would like to come, gimme a jingle and your in! ill take the space van, so i can take 6 others. lemme know!

so i am obsessed completely with peter breinholt. if you dont know him, i pity you. oh my, he is so incredible, i just....could never sick of him! so amazing! so you all have an assignment, to go and listen to him. he has a few songs on youtube, go look at'em.

----------------
Now playing: Peter Breinholt - Birken Street
via FoxyTunes
----------------

oh, and random, but one of my favorite christmas songs i have found is "bring a torch jeannette isabella". i dunno why, but peter breinholt sang it on his christmas cd, and it is so incredible, and has made me fall in love with that song.

so, this has so far been a very lame post.

im truly sorry.

this is how lame i am.

i was going to tell you all a story, but i dont really want to. i am bad at typing on my keyboard. ya know? this is just one keyboard i am not so good at. anywho, i am just going to tell you all the story of bopalopaskiwhompsado, a story that i told sam in like....8th grade. its quite a masterpiece.

one time, there was a sqwirl ( love the spelling). this sqwirls name was bopalapaskiwhampsado. one day, he was hang gliding. he was just about to go for a second flight, when he saw an hippo that was just about to jump off to hang glide aslo, but his glider was smaller than bopalapaskiwhampsado's!!!! so bopalapaskiwhampsado ran as fast as he could to stop him, but he was too late. bopalapaskiwhampsado jumped after him, determined to save the poor hippo. the hippos glider ripped apart, and he started to scream! bopalapaskiwhampsado used the force, and lifted the hippo back to saftey. but right then, bopalapaskiwhampsado relized that he didnt have the force, nor did anyone, so the hippo started to fall again! he didnt know how he lifted him how far he did, but bopalapaskiwhampsado went into a steep dive to catch up with the hippo. when he got there, he relized it was his mom, just disgised in a helium filled hippo suit, and she was sreaming because she broke a nail on the bar she was holding on to. so after that whole catastrophe, bopalapaskiwhampsado was very mad at his mom for wasting a jump for her. so got he back to the top, and jumped. he was soring through the sky, when he got hit by lightnig, and went tumbling towards the ground. this confused bopalapaskiwhampsado becuase they lives on planet shmerp where clouds, let alone lightning, did not exsit. once he relized this, he started to fly again after the non-exsistant lightning had struck him, who knows why. after all of the confusion, he hadent been paying attention, so hit a flying pig, and fell to the ground. he ran home to tell his mom what a day he had, but then relized that his mom was out hangliding, and probably had seen his day. so he went to go tell his best friend peachakingabellafeenabopalopsk

i about it, but found he was supergluing himself to the celing, to see how strong it was. so bopalapaskiwhampsado said he would come back another day to tell him about his day. bopalapaskiwhampsado was sad. he had no one to tell about his day. so he invented a magic lamp that, when rubbed, a magic genie would come out and do everything you told it to. but, the genie rebelled, and would only give him three wishes. he asked for a pet catipiller ( which tragicly died in a ant ambush the next day), a ice cream cone (he forgot to wish it WITH ice cream on it) and a new friend for him to tell his life story to. he gave him the new friend, and dissapeared. but sadly, the friend was only imaginay, the genie made him think he had a new friend. bopalapaskiwhampsado sad on the curb. suddenly, he started to float away like a ballon. sadly, he was never seen again!

tomorow, i will tell you all a new original story. but no promise it will be good....haha.

um....what else to say....i dunno, but as promised, another grand poem...haha

i wrote this one on the bus ride home from trek many a years ago.

endless plains of dust and sage
hold the secrets of our past
to our begining
and their bitter end
these pioneer plains they suffered in

with few belongings and little food
they left with little handcarts
off to Zion
not knowing where
the endless plains would lead them

the journy was long and nearly futile
yet they held their heads high and pushed along
hundreds sick
many dead
the relentless plains cant take them

they reached their goal
with strong hearts and minds
well worth their perseverance

well, till next time!

oh, and i liked the idea of the random fact.

so here is one of mine
---------------------
i LOVE blueberries. fresh blueberries are probably my favorite food of all time. they make me weep with joy. hahaha. i love them oh oh so much! so if you want to make me a very happy person, fresh blueberries are the way to go. or kumqwats. haha

I PROMISE...

2008-11-29T00:54:00.000-07:00

to update my blog tommorow.

IM MOVING TO TAHITI!

2008-11-04T22:22:00.004-07:00

wow, now that we are going to have a pretend president, i must say....

im leaving the country.

ok, so not really, but now i wanna go outta state for my mission oh oh so much more. i mean, the man scares me. really.

oh i feel the change in the air. its all around. i feel the change, and it is making me want to cry in a corner.

Change is all we will have once obama is though. and man do i hate pennies.

ok, maybe im being harsh. i mean, i really hate it when our country spends more time hating against our leader instead of actually doing something to change what they dislike. when they all just hate on the president, and then sit there hoping it will change. so i will support him, but i sure wont agree with him.

Im a Republican, because not everyone can be on WELFARE

2008-10-17T14:32:00.003-06:00

more on my title later. i saw it on a bumper sticker, and liked it...

ok. well i know, i was doin pretty good at updating, but then that last post made me wait to update, cuz i wanted to see how many comments it would get....hahah

so about that, i did NOT write that post. i was logged onto blogger at anthonys house and he wrote it. so i hope that clears up a few things...

ok, so i wanna write a song. really bad. but i have a problem, i cant really play the guitar or banjo well enough to be able to sing along at the same time. so ill just kinda sing something to myself in my head. so i stayed up late like 2 weeks ago, and i had some pretty awsome lyrics goin down, and good tune and all. but wait! i realized halfway through, that i was pretty much singing "chicken fried" by the zac brown band with different lyrics and a slightly different beat. so that was sad. so ill keep workin on it and update you as i go along. i wish i was like alec, who can write an awsome song on a whim...any of you out there in blogger land that have ever written a song, what works best for you?

so shippy is gone. and i didnt get to say goodbye....tear

but, grahamn is here!! yes!! man i have missed that kid. good times with him. if you dont know grahamn, try harder! he is incredible.

ok, so not much has happend since my last post. i did go to Tennessee finnally tho! and it was incredible. ill do a post on that later with photos and all.

so the song bowl of oranges just came on my shuffle. and wow, i forgot how much i love this song. its by bright eyes for those who dont know, and if you dont then go and look it up!! but this song....wowsa, it brings back so many memories. of highschool, jocelyn (it was on a mix of hers), christmas, and a certain bus ride to a swim meet. oh man, good times. go listen to this song, its so happy and good.

so i taught myself taylor swifts love story on the banjo. so ladies, if you ever wanna sing it, i got your back.

so for all those who love a good laugh, my house, monday sometime, we are going to watch hot rod or maybe juno. so tell me if you wanna come. i just may have some pizza too....might....

oh movies. for all those who enjoyed juno, i HIGHLY recomend Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist! i thought it was freakin incredible. about some kids looking for their drunk friend that wandered away in the heart of new york, while they try to find fluffy, an incredible hard to find band. so so so so so good.

ok, no a shout out. to audrey rotormund (spelling? sorry...) haha, but i got an honesty box comment, and i think it came in august sometime, and my facebook didnt tell till like monday, and they said " i dunno if audrey wanted you to know, but you should really go and read her last post" and the person has not responded to me after that. so i am really confused. audrey, any help on this would be awsome....haha

so guess what. i think this is one of the few times that i really, truely, and 100% do not like anyone. crazy. this hasnt happend for quite sometime!! and lemme say, its odd, cuz i freakin LOVE it, but at the same time i really hate it, i like liking someone also. but its good, now i dont have to deal with denial again....and again....and again....haha. oh well, i guess its a good thing but i dunno.

just kidding. i have a huge crush on taylor swift. hahah. not like thats new....man she is so attractive....

so jas just got her wisdom teeth out. good times. im going to bring her a chocolaty minty shake from shivers, cuz thats the thing that she wanted!

so if you didnt notice, my facebook profile picture is of bridgit. its funny.

so i also noticed that all of my paragraphs...no, all of my Points of interest start with "so"

anywho, i just lost the game. but on a lighter note, i again want you all to go to my sisters blog, its the second link under my friends, and look at how freakin cute my nephew is.

so on a final note, ill be like anthony, and say something that alot of people will disagree with...

so in tennessee, my sister heather was in some crazy politics class of somesort, and she was arguing with her BF about socilized medicine ( she did a paper on it) , like obama wants. in like canada and france and stuff, their income tax, because of the socilized medicine, is 80%!! thats right folks, 80 freakin % of your total income. and ya, it probably wouldent be that knarly with obama, but still, tax is the only way to pay for things like that. and people just love taxes. second, in canada where they have socilized medicine, a man went to the emergency room for some knarly pain in his abdomen, and he wasnt deemed inportant enough, and died from a bladder infection after waiting in the EMERGENCY room for 34 HOURS! by the time they had seen him, he was dead and rigor mortis had already set in. wowsa. see the story here. they take people as they come, and doctors will not get paid NEARLY as much money, and they will have a regular work schedule. its just not good at all.

so in short, its not that i just dont like obama, but i truley am scared that he will win. SCARED. and he says you can keep your current health care plan if you like it. but thats not gong to chage what it will be like at the hospital or doctors or whatever. and i will still have to pay for everyone elses healthcare, which i really dont want to do, because we are already paying for the lazy craps that are living on welfare.

im done! until next time kids!

and as promised, another poem, but sadly im outta my good ones...haha

Conflicting Emotions

a beautiful girl in an ugly world
lost amiss the chaos
wanting so bad someone
she can confide in
but conflicting emotions
will never let her go

she stumbles through a haze
of memories and desires
unable to discern what
path may lie ahead
now only time will tell
what love this chaos can bring

It Finally Happened- My first kiss

2008-09-21T00:01:00.002-06:00

AH GEEZ!

So, here we have it. A step-by-step illustrated Guide to Kissing, How to Kiss and the 'Perfect Kiss!'

The first step to the perfect kiss is the hardest - and unfortunately, there's no picture that can help you out there.

That first step is finding the right person to kiss!

Now, if you've arrived at the point where you feel you're ready to kiss (or be kissed by) that special someone, hopefully things have gone well up until now. It always helps to be yourself around others, so that you feel more comfortable with the other person, and don't feel as nervous or feel like you have to put on an 'act.' The more comfortable you feel together when you're just hanging out, the easier that first kiss should be, no matter how little experience you have.

If you follow the kissing instructions in the kissing photos above and you have the right partner, things should go well!

From here on out, your 'flights' will just get easier!

Good luck and happy kissing!

Also, like kristin i too have decided to run away from my problems and move to the crime ridden city of new york so that my problems will be consumed in drugs and sex and carelessness.

Sad Fish

2008-09-14T21:00:00.005-06:00

ok, so im actually updating again! woot! hahaha, i would have done so yesterday, but i was in bear lake, so i apologize.

so first off, a shout out to jocelyn. she introduced me to a band called Gomez. they have a song called how we operate and it had a banjo in it, so she thought i would like it. and she was right!! oh my goodness, i looked them up on myspace, and proceded to get ahold of everything that i could of them. i love them so much!!! so joce, i thank you!!

Now playing: Gomez - Hamoa Beach

now, on to the story of the week. tennessee. YAY!! so on october 7th, i am going to visit heather in tennessee! then we decided to go and visit nashville while i am there, and well, i LOVE nashville, thats like....my city! music city! the heart of everything country!! so happy. then we are going to ashville to visit the hortons, whom heather knows from vollyball! then, to make it even better (ya, i didnt think it could get any better either), mr horton says, " hey, how bout i take brady on a motorcycle ride down the blue ridge parkway?!". when i heard this, i almost pee'd i was so excited. i knew they had two of my dream bikes. BMW R1200 Sport Touring bikes. then heather said, they dont have those bikes anymore. i thought, ok, thats cool, it will still be awsome! then she said, they have ducati's. wow, if there was an pee left, it just escaped then. i just found out they have a ducati sport classic 1000 and a suzuki 650. i can pretty much guarentee i will not be driving the ducati. for those who dont know, ducati is like the ferarri of motorcycles.so yes, i am very excited! oh man, i cant even tell you my excitement!

ok, so me and my padre went to the hometown diner place in bear lake before we came home (only place open on sundays) and the announcer girl, was super attractive. yep.

ok, not much else to say sadly.....hahah ok so here is a poem i wrote in first period health class soph year. its just a joke poem.

First Period

staring at nothing in particular
as the clock meanders along
my eyes start to droop
and my head slowly falls
then suddenly jerks up again

it finally overtakes me
and my head hits the desk
with a soft "thump"
as soon as it started,
it seams at an end
as the bell rings loudly
i slowly rise, and leave the class
on my way to second period

ok, and now a real one...hahaha

writing this particualr poem is what really got me into writing poetry. it was really the first one i ever wrote. we got to school and it was uber foggy, so fuches had us write a poem about it.

The Ready Storm

fog comes in as a ready storm
silent and cold
it stands all alone
it flows through the night
moving with care
waiting to pounce
but no one is there
just watching, and waiting
it knows patience well

awaiting a victim
in a white trail of mist
the sun slowley rises
a new day begins
the fog slowley moves
away in the west
running from light
and looking for life
the story repeats
all over again

peace out kiddies!!!

oh, and tell me what you think about "the ballad of brady: a tale of courage"'s new layout!!

I Am Easily Make Belive

2008-09-11T22:55:00.003-06:00

so...all i have to say is im sorry. in oh so many ways. first off, sorry that i am so lame at blogging. i know i never update, and y'all are prolly really tired of chekin and seeing "he died instantly....the next day" so i am sorry about that. i know i have been pretty bad. i honestly am goin to try to do better. i know i have said that alot, but really this time. but my life really aint that exciting, so i just might have a ton of uber lame posts. but hey, thats me. hah

ok, one more apology and we'll get the the fun times with brady. but this is to alex. so i know that you have been goin through some hard times lately, and im sorry i have kinda been really distant and such, i just have been uber confused with a few things, and so i am sorry that i was not the nicest person of all time, and that you really are pretty much my best friend ever, and you know i would give the world to you if i could. so ya.

ok, now to the fun and exciting brady that we have all come to know and love. first, this is going to be a good month. sept 22, heroes and chuck. the 23rd, NCIS. that is very good news. and other than that, i dont really have much else to say. so....ill try to entertain you for awhile longer.

oh, so funny story. i went to higland to visit jon, kev, and meet the mystery sydney. so i was wearing my awsome purple shirt and driving murphy, for those who dont know murphy, my little tiny honda motorcycle thing. lemme tell ya, all the dudes who think they are just too cool for school and that everyone is beneath them and such, they just were havin the time of their lives yellin at me, sayin "hey faggot", "im not gay!" and things like that. if i hadent been waiting for kevin, i can assure you i would have gone up to them and given them a little talk....haha. i used to be super sensitive like that, and shy. but now, i would have no problem at all goin up and havin a little fun with them, but anywho. thats for another day. haha.

uhm....i am obsessed with a new song, that i used to not like to much, cuz it was kinda slow, and weird. but a few days ago, it randomly got stuck in my head and i went to listen to it, and BAM! im obsessed. its by sufjan stevens, and its called "John Wayne Gacy Jr". if ya didnt know, John wayne gacy jr is also known at the killer clown(because he dressed up as a clown and was an entertainer for awhile), and is a creep. he was a creepy serial killer who went after little boys....*shutter*. but although the song is like an account of the creep, its so so so incredible. omgoodnes i love it.

i have a plan

lemme tell you random things about you, many things you will know, many you may not.

i love folk and country music. anthony, i am glad you have discovered gary jules, i love the man. my fave song of his is called "witchita" and i love it dearly.
BMW>The world
i have alot of moles
when i was little, i wanted to be a bumblebee
i do NOT want to be a bumblebee anymore
i wanna be chuck norris.
i am already kinda bored of this game.

to be continued.

ok, so if any of you want to see my nephew, who just happens to be the cutest little guy of all time, click on here or on the April*Danny*Mason link under my friends. oh my goodness, so cute!!

so more on my life. so i think before my mish, i might work up at solitude! i am quite excited, i have my interview in a week, and well....i think ill get it, cuz they replied to me in like....10 hours or something. but i am excited.

crazy, that crazy happy song joce put on her blog? well, the same artist just came up on pandora, and wow, it is also really happy and good! i have never heard of them before....

Now playing: Belle & Sebastian - Wrapped Up In Books
via FoxyTunes

its good! anywho, i want this to be a long post, hence the ramblings. but right now, it feels really long, but i know that when i post it, i will be terribly disapointed. oh, i have a plan again!

so from now on, i am going to post at the end, one of the poems that i have written, and i want some feedback people!!

lets make a deal, the more feedback,
the more blog updates. sounds like a fair trade.

that will be fun, and it will help me write more. i really love writing poetry, its just so....calming, and stress realiving and such, and can help you express how your feeling. so dont even worry, some i have only shown to the person whom it was for, or i have shown it to no one. so that will be an adventrue.

you may be wondering, how i got to poetry from complaing about how short my blog is. well, i shall tell you. i was listening to a spill canvas song in alex's car tonight, and its a song we all know and love, because its spill canvas. (if you didnt know, i honestly belive spill canvas is by far the best band of all time, and they are absolutly incredible. i do not think that it is possible for me to love any band more). but its a song that has always made me think of jocelyn, and all that we have gone through. its called "all over you". it goes as follows:

yeah he's a looker but i really think it's guts that matter most
i displayed them for you
strung out about from coast to coast
i am easily make believe
just dress me up in what you want me to be
i'll take back what i've been saying
for quite some time now

i've gotta feel you in my bones again
i'm all over you
i'm not over you
i wanna taste you one more time again
i'm all over you.
i'm not over you

in my daydreams, in my sleep
infatuation turning into disease
you could cure me, see all you have to do now is please try
give it your best shot and try
all i'm asking for is love
but you never seem to have enough

i've gotta feel you in my bones again
i'm all over you
i'm not over you
i wanna taste you one more time again
i'm all over you
i'm not over you

this life is way too short to get caught up in all this stuff when i just want you to love me back
why can't you just love me back
why can't you just love me back
(why can't you, why can't you)
why can't you just love me back
(why can't you, why can't you)
why can't you just love me back
(why can't you, why can't you just love)

i've gotta feel you in my bones again
i'm all over you
i'm not over you
i wanna taste you one more time again
(just one more time)

this life is way too short to get caught up and all mixed up when i just want you to love me back
why cant you just love me back
why won't you just love me back
why can't you just love me back

and well....lets just say, that it fit how i felt almosts perfectly, especially when she got together with alec not even a week after she shut me down cuz she was so against high school relationships....so that song will forever make me thing of her. still, how did i get to poetry? well, i dunno, i was just thinkin of spill canvas, to that song, to joce, to a poem i wrote for her long long ago. it will be awkward, but i will post that one today.

next on the docket, me and the girlies. but first, another awsome song that came on pandora!!!

Now playing: Reality Addiction - Close To You
via FoxyTunes

for those who dont know reality addiction, change that. now. go to their myspace page. and listen to them. they are super incredible.

back on track. me and the ladies. do not exist. so from my last post i think, the random girl that i thought may like me and such, i take that all back. you see, i kinda thought that alexhad liked me, and i had recently stopped likin her for who knows why, and i was just uber confused on how i felt about her, and what i did or didnt want to happen, so i was just a little stirred up. anywho, im all good. but still confused. i dunno why im not crushin on her anymore, but i fell like i should for some reason. i dunno.

there really isnt anyone that i like, and it makes me sad, cuz i want to. i seriously just wanna find a whole new bunch of people to hang out with as to start anew with the ladies. not to say that i would abandon everyone, but y'all know what i mean.

so im sad i didnt go to magna. right now shipp and anton are fighing off the knarly wild beasts from magna. i cant imagine the epic-ness of it all. jealousy. but i had work, and such.

ok, well dunno what else to say, so i guess i will just have to stop delaying it, and justs post this poem. a forewarning. it seriously gives Kraft mac-n-cheese a run for its money in being "the cheesiest!!" cuz really guys, its so cheesey. welp, here it goes.

its called, "The Joy of Life"......as i said, its ALREADY uber cheesball.

he stays up late thinking about her smile
and the way she dances in the rain
she has so much to give,
yet he has little in return.
he wants to be her shoulder when she cries
and her joy in everything else.
she's just a dream come true,
and the joy of his life
nothing better could come
but this feeling returned,
in a quiet serenity not shown to the world
its not a feeling just felt
to be lost and ignored,
but should be shared with each other
and cherished forever

so there ya go. i guess ill post one more, to try and uncheese my blog.

this is what i think is my best one, i wrote it in 8th grade, called "If Time Stops"

what if time stops
and all that is, was
and will be
will stay that way
forever
no more broken
hearted children
or lost and shatterd dreams
no emotions to be had
of jealosy, love
hope, happiness and despair
no lives will be taken
nor new ones be made
all shall live on forever
in darkness and light
with no one to run to
they think all will end soon
for they are much mistaken
for all that was to be
will no longer live free

well there ya have it kiddies, until tommorow!

He Died Instantly....The Next Day

2008-08-22T00:07:00.003-06:00

ok, first off, i remember my important blurb from last time. it goes as follows. JEEZ people, our lives arent ending, so quit acting like it! i am super freakin tired of hearing everyone whine about what is going to happen now that people are going to college. its not like everyone is saying, "bye, im off to colledge, never will see you again, have fun!" or, "im going to collegd so my life is going to be turned upside down and i will never be the same again". seriously? i mean, everyone just keeps freakin out about things that are not needin to be freaked out about. savvy? so the next person who freaks about their life as they know it coming to an end and that they have to be a new person, OH MY GOODNESS, its just a bigger school in a new place. maybe a smaller school. did y'all freak when you went to highschool?! ok, maybe a little bit nervous, which i understand 100%, but right now, the only person to have ANY real reason to be on the edge of a heart attack its shippy. i mean, his life really IS changing for the next two years as he goes to do nothing else but serve the lord in hawaii on his mission. so shippy, freak out as you may. everyone else, suck it up and dont be such babys!!!

ok, now thats off my chest, i have one more thing that i must say, that i feel deeply about. that is, 9 square. oh my goodness this is probably the greatest game ever. so everyone should play whenever they can. woot.

and amending my last post, i must say that i do think i know of someone that likes me, which is a toatl bummer, cuz if im right i just stopped likin' em. so....i dunno what to do.

*adding to the 9 square paragraph, we have more way to play that we did tonight. spinning, and get really dizzy before you play; random, and bird calls. random is prolly the funniest thing. ever.

anywho, on to my life again. so i am obsessed with NCIS, and i have been watching it on my ipod for the last day or 2, and was up till 4 last night watchin it on my little emma. so that pretty cool.

so i just relized something. i dont think my personallity is really showing in my blog, or am i just crazy? i mean, i am actually compleating sentances (with terrible grammer and worthless spelling i admit) and not telling really lame jokes, and being the hillarious goof i am. true, or not so true?

*have fun being married to SATAN!!*

maybe throwin in some random hot rod quotes will help?

yes, i think so.

omgoodness! ok, this will be fun. typing on random parts of the screen

joy. so ill start here now. im i helping my predicament
now? because i

am unsure. i hope this is hard to read

BECAUSE I CAN BARELY
follow

it either. so i sympathize with you. or who knows, maybe you have just stopped reading by now. cuz i am totally just rambling now. oh, and spell check soooo doesnt work on blogger. cuz even this:

bobalompaskiwhompsadofinalakinashnizel

is not spelled wrong. knarly. or is it gnarly? ok, im dumb. after typing them, i know.

so i met this new girl. well, not met, but im not sure of this. lemme explain.

so we were at kristins cabin, and i was lookin thro my contacts and came across sydney. i had NO clue who this person was. so i texted them. and as i am typing this, i vaguly remember saying this in my last post....if not, then i will continue my story in my next post. anywho, long story short, i will beat her in the duel.

ok, on to a new subject. which i will have for you tommorow.

oh, and in honor of hot rod.....**

I used to be legit. I was too legit. I was too legit to quit. but now I'm not legit. I'm unlegit. And for that reason, I must quit.

So one afternoon, he set out to jump ten milk trucks. He nailed the take-off, but when he landed, something terrible happened. His front tire exploded like a cannonball, and his handle bars went straight through his head. Blood was everywhere. His teeth were ground down to a powder, and the front of his face exploded out the back of his skull. He died instantly... the next day.

byebye now!

2008-08-20T18:32:00.002-06:00

So, first off, to all those who have left a memory, yours is coming. soon. i havent had time to really blog so i apologize.
Second, i have no idea what to talk about. my life is boring. haha. So i have rekindled my love for Goo Goo Dolls, i dunno why i like them so much, but man alive i just love their music so much! same with Nine Days, vertical horizon, and matchbox 20. so good. anywho, i was reading anthonys blog, looking at how excited he, and others are for the upcoming movie, Watchmen. lemme say this, yes, i do think that it looks super good. but, i love the visual aspects of movies, and from what i have seen in the trailers, i think the visuals are a little sub-par. that it looks pretty cheesy in that aspect. so sorry guys.
on the girl front, i have nothing to say. no one likes me at all as far as im concerned, and frankely, i dont really like anyone much either. but the oddest part, im not too sad about it for once. yay! ohh, just kidding i do have one thig to say. so i was at kristins cabin, looking through my phonebook and saw a "sydney" and i had NO clue who that was. so i texted them, sayin hi sydney, i dunno who you are but your in my phonebook. haha. and she said she didnt know who i was either. she goes to highland, and we met somehow through jon cannon. i texted him, and he remembers giving me her number even tho i dont. so we have talkin, and its all leding up to an epic fencing duel that we are going to have, and that it may be a surprise attack, as i dont know what she looks like and she does know what i look like. haha. so its been fun talkin to her, and soon she is going to hang out with us, and play nine square or something! so fun! haha. so thats pretty much all that has happend in my life the last little while.

so i was crabby yesterday. i dunno why, it just was not a good day. the highlight was probably watching hana fail at spraypainting her shirt in the walmart parkinglot. haha. but i have been generally happy the last little while, but yesterday....yesterday was just bad. i wasnt like openly crabby, i was just really reserved and kinda too myself, reveling in my thoughts and stuff. and then no one was responding to my texts, which made me more crabby. but today i am much happier! all because i listened to a goo goo doll song...haha.

ok, halfway through that last paragraph, i had somthing inportant that i needed to blog about. but i cant remember it. this makes me angry. and i keep getting little blurbs of understanding, and then it goes away again. i dunno, ill keep ya updated. and, yes, i am random. hence, llamas.

The Sword of Truth

2008-07-28T16:43:00.002-06:00

all i have to say is, OH MY GOSH! i cant belive this is actually happening. they have been talking about it for quite some time, and it is actually going to happen. on Nov. 1st. and lets just say, i am looking EXTREAMLY doubtful on this whole thing. some things it looked like they got right, but most wrong. kahlan is not very attractive. richard is WAY too small. zedd looked good, but a little too creepy. chase will be good. darken rahl will be epic. but i dunno guys, i just dunno. for those who havent guessed by now, im talking about my favorite things of all time, my heroes, my life blood, what batman is to anthony, this is to me. thats right, Terry Goodkinds Sword of Truth book series. my favorite books of all time, i love them to DEATH! and they are actually making it a tv series. first off, it wont be cliff hanger like the books are, he said each episode will have a set begginging and end, so that new comers can start in the middle. well thats a DUMB idea for all us loyal fans. but they say that it will be really strict to the story line, and terry goodkind is overseeing that himself. so we can only hope. oh, and the first season will not be called "wizards first rule", but will be called "the legend of the seeker", as to pukt the focus on the characters and plot, not just the first book. and who knows, maybe this series will prove the wizards first rule, people are STUPID! well, here is the trailer.

Fireworks, Concerts, and Pam!

2008-07-04T23:19:00.012-06:00

so i dunno where to begin, its been so long. ill just give you a brief little overview. so today is the 4th of july, and we went to highlands practice field to watch the fireworks that were pretty much right above us. it was freakin awesome! so we watched those as we got pieces of flaming shells falling all around and on us. it was pretty cool. anyways, the last few weeks have been pretty uneventful. just working every once and awhile. wait, just kidding. i went to bear lake a few times, which was amazing! jeez i love it up there! and then just last weekend i pretty much went to the best concerts of all time. on june 27th i went to the tim mcgraw concert at usana ampetheater and it was amazing!! so halfway to hazard and jason aldean opened up, and i really love both of them. but right before halfway to hazard came on stage they came on the speakers and said to text something to a number for a chance to win backstage passes to go and meet halfway to hazard and what do you know, a few minitues later i got a text saying i had won, and that i need to call their tour manager and have him take me backstage! it was awsome! so right after jason aldean was done, me and heather went backstage and met them! it was so awsome! so then we went back to our seats and then it was just in time for mr tim mcgraw himself to grace the stage! it was so good. i have always dreamed of going to a tim mcgraw concert and i finally did! what joy! anyways, then last monday, the 30th, we went to the spill canvas concert. my other favorite band. and btw, i was OBSESSED with them waay before all over you
concert! was on the radio. years before that. i have loved them forever. anyways, we got there and it was already like a sauna in there. so hot. but there were 3 opening bands! which was cool, but i really just wanted to see the spill canvas! but the first band was Mury, who was quite good. second up was Liam and Me, who i am now pretty much addicted to. they were soo amazing! and then steel train was up, who was a pretty solid mediocre. i wasnt the biggest fan, but they were ok. finally spill canvas came on and i have never been so happy. i had almost no voice after that after they played "all hail the heartbreaker" and "lust a prime vista" i was just in heaven. such a great concert! btw, if any one wants to ask me anything, just leave a comment...or text me or something. im a pretty darn open guy. sorry that was random, it just kinda popped into my head...anywho, and the video right below is called "Staplegunned", and it was the Encore at the Spill Canvas concert. its not the best video, but it was the only one short enough to upload...haha. so on to more interesting subjects...my life is pretty boring right now, im not going to lie. so i still really like julia, but nothing will happen with that. she still kinda ignores me alot and puts me on hold all the time. oh well, im just fine being friends with her! :) but i am kinda liking someone new, and for the time being this person will be reffered to as...Pam. and anthony, dont yell at me for not telling. i have good reason. anyways, i have no idea who pam likes, if anyone, but i do know that we are good friends and that i i really like her. i dont think she has the slightest clue i like her, and i really want something to happen with her, but i dont think it will ever happen because she just thinks of us as really good friends. its really sad. oh well, we shall see how things work out...anywho. i also have a dilema. as we all know, the dark knight is coming out july 18th, and i am SUPER pumed for it! so so so excited!! but my scouts are having a freakin epic campout that same week up in jackson in an awsome cabin! we will be like be white water rafting, kayaking, mountain biking and such, which is all stuff i love! but its during the dark knight! so i dunno what to do! if i go on the campout, it will be weeks before i could get a ticket to dark knight, and i would not be with all of my friends. but if i do then i will miss out on one of the best camouts ever! sad panda. bah. i just dunno what to do. anyways, comment and tell me what to do. also random, but if you want to see my lifes goal, here it is .
beautiful. my heart beats a little faster when i see that...so ya. what else to write about....i dunno, i think i will just go to bed now...sleep tight and comment and what i told you to!

Oh wow, Sr. Prom!

so lets just say yesterday was an adventure...so to start things off, we woke up waay too early in the morning to go and hot air balloon in park city, but we werent actually able to go because it was too windy and stuff. so we ended up just going to ruths diner and having some very good breakfast. i then later picked up kenz and we went to our dinner at the capitol, which was also very good. then we went in and danced, and it was quite a good dance, except the lights were on, and as anthony said, was really strange...but anywho, it was good! then we went down to paintball addicts and had some crazy fights! it was so much fun! it was a very good night. but now for the real meat of this post. ok, so kenz kinda was...distracted to say the least the entire dance. she would go off on secretive little walks some of the girls, talking about channing or something. she had her back to me alot and would just flirt and talk to him. during the dance she wasnt by him all that much, but it was kinda funny, she would all the sudden stop dancing, look around intently for like 2 minitues, and when she found channing, would then continue dancing. anyways, but even with all that, yesterday was one good night! first off, julia was very attractive as usual, and would just randomly come up to me and say hi and talk and flirt and stuff. that was awsome. then when we were dancing at one point, jill came up to me and told me that julia wanted to do some summer date thing, and i have no idea what it is but oh boy did it make me happy. then she stole my aviators and just flirted a little more and it was way fun. not to say it all means anything, but man alive it made me happy. hahah. so that was way cool. and paintballing was one of the more fun things i have ever done! oh, and this morning, bekah texted me! that also made me quite the happy man. for those who dont know bekah, she was my 6th and 7th grade crush. big time. i thought, and still kinda do, that she was one of the most attractive people i had ever seen! so thats way cool. oh, and good news, graduate from seminary today! woot!

--The Begining--

ok, so i know that i have not been so good at this yet. this, my friends, is a beginning of a new day. i am going to make one heck of a post, that will delve deep into my life and give you some insight to me. this shall be great fun. any questions, you know how to ask. so, random, but i cleaned up my computer, and all of the sudden all of my music is missing. how do you misplace 40 gigs of music? anywho, oh well its all backed up. well to start things off, school is almost over. which makes me want to dance atop something high. but i will spare you from that image...haha and it also sucks. but thats another story for another day. second, i really want a new(er) motorcycle, one that im not scared to pull onto streets with. but my madre and padre dont want me to get a new one. bugger. haha. then comes the subject that i just know you all have been dying to hear about. the ladies. well. lets just say once i turned 16 i promised myself that i would get my first kiss before graduation. well, thats just a few days away, and i still got nothing...oh so sad. i mean, who could resist me?! well apparently alot of people. sad panda. as we all know the whole jocelyn stuff was so not cool, i got over her but i still have a tiny piece inside of me that still desperately wants something with her, but i just know that after everything that wont happen which is a bummer. why is it that every girl i like says that they dont want to have any sort of relationship in high school, and literally the next week have a boyfriend? thats pretty lame i must say. lets expound on that. i mean, jocelyn thought for weeks on if she wanted something, and she finnaly just came out and said no, and that the main reason was that she didnt want any realationship in high school, she had been pretty firm on that idea for quite sometime. and so that made me sad. and then there was that infamous day, that day at temple square. oh what a good day, and we both kinda felt that way. she said that she "might have second thoughts on her answer" and that while we were there, she said that it just kinda felt right, and that she kinda felt like we should be together. and all the girls said that she shouldnt do it, not to be in a relationship in highschool. so she didnt. and so obviously that gave me super high hopes and then destroyed them into absolute oblivion. and then literally, no exaggeration, she was together with alec about 8 days later. i dont think i need to tell you how absolutly lame and hurtful that was. bah. BAH! oh well. so anywho, i do like some people, both are not lookin so hopeful... first, i like rafiki. if you dont know who rafiki is, oh well. i have liked her for a few weeks now, and for a few days it had looked kinda hopeful, but now that i learn more it isnt really hopeful at all. she likes 3 different people, none of which are me. sad-er panda. then the one person that i like the most, well, that just wont happen as things stand. i really am starting to like the most attractive girl in all of the world, second only to brittany snow. thats right folks, the only and only julia dahdah. i like her alot. right after the dance i was kinda partial, not sure if i liked her all that much. but now that she really knows who i am and will talk to me all the time at school and stuff, i really like her. alot. and sometimes some of the things that she says to me and the way that she acts makes me sometimes makes me think that she likes me at least a little. but lets just say i have a nasty habit of thinking people like me when they just flirt a little or something. and then on the other hand sometimes she will say or do things that make me think that she absolutly is disgusted by me. so that is a total bummer. so she is pretty much my main crush, and one that i think is stickin around for awhile. i mean, she is so fun and open and all sorts of things, im amazed that she doesnt have to carry around a bat to beat off all the guys with...anywho so thats the latest on all that. it just really sucks not to have someone that feels that way about you also, i mean, all our friends pretty much do and so all the things we ever do are things where everyone couples off and the rest of us wanna go off and ralph in the bushes...its like hey, lets go hiking! well ok, that sounds fun! oh, wait, being on the top of a mountain with all these couples getting all friendly with each other....ya, not sounding all that fun anymore. so ill just ya know, sit around with the like 3 other people that arent coupled off. jeez its so dumb. people should be gross when they are alone, if they wanna hang out in a group i would think that they can stay off each other for just a few hours.. (cough rosie taylor cough cough). not to mention a few others. anywho, enough of all that schpeil. but really, i like julia so much. just incase you missed the last 40 lines or so...well this has been a good post. i enjoyed that. more to come later! ill try and post daily, and a good one like this once a week or more...cool beans.

The Rune...

2008-05-27T18:01:00.000-06:00

Ok, so today started bad. i thought it was a b day today. it sure wasnt. so that was a pretty nasty surprise, but hey, it was toga day which is a day i have been waiting for since freshman year...but other than that it was a pretty good day i guess! so once i fugure out this whole blog thing i will for sure start to write more interesting things and delve into my life, but for now i am just keeping it simple. but i got to work and i was just kinda sitting there, and then it pulled up. a brand new honda rune motorcycle. they only made 1000. and that particulare type they only made 5 of. i almost soiled my pants when i saw it. man it was gorgeous. and i just realized that we have not planned any of the dance at all. that is not cool at all, and i really want this dance to be a good one! its kinda inportant to me....anywho, sorry to bore you, i swear that i will write more interesting things soon, and it also does not help that i am at work currently, so i also have to answer the phone and help whining customers while typing...

Today, is a new day!!

2008-05-26T15:47:00.000-06:00

SO.

as this is my first blog post, its probably going to be pretty darn lame. but we will see. so currently i am supposed to be cleaning my room, got distracted and decided to make a blog. woah excitement. anywho, just got back from cali a few days ago, and lemme say, that was quite awsome, but not having anthony (either of them) was very lame. and while there, i didnt even get to visit jacob! oh well, some other time. so it was a great trip, despite a few lame things that happened, and maybe if you readers will be good, then i will even delve into that! haha. well its been fun!
