I haven't posted in a while.....

I was planning to post way earlier but I just didn't take initiative to do it... then the days went crazy and I didn't have time. So I thought that I would just do it.

Still laugh at Craig Ferguson, a recent episode was about as funny as ever.

Mom went to hospital, presenting with chest pain/ pressure. I stayed with her the whole time, which was overnight and well into the next day. Her labs and stress test show that the problems were not heart related.
There were 2 GSW taken to the ER causing the hospital to go on full lock down. I almost didn't make it back from the candy run, at which I saw a ton of police. First was to the head, possibly self-inflicted.

Finally am in SAU, however still have to turn in a form (I swear someone must have lost it, but whatever, no harm done). Will I EVER?!

Got contacts and have almost mastered them; however, my eyes continue to experience dryness, whether or not this is normal is still to be determined.

Start first college class next week and am almost all ready. One book needs to still come in the mail. Oh well. Maybe it will come on Monday or something, I think I can allegedly track it with UPS code.

I think I overheated and just got overtired today as I seemed to feel as though I might die around 4.

Hung out with Steph this week. Which is the best! I haven't hung out with her as much in recent years, but were still like on the same wave length and have a fabulous time together, well as least I do. She's so much fun, probably cuz we both laugh at and enjoy the same things.

Saw first Star Trek movie which was tons of epic pans to chow space and the Enterprise Though it was funny and really good. Crystal jumped and made noises the whole time. We told her Spock doesn't show his emotions, to which every time Spock did she pointed it out. Spock really just doesn't control his emotions as much as he would like people to think. Steph stated that Kirk looked like a younger version of the Priceline guy.... that's because he is, the one and only William Shatner. Hilarious moment.

I think there should be some pics now...

RDJ and Jude Law....

Loker from Lie to Me...

Steph, what do u think?

Who stole the cookies from the cookie jar?

Life

Isn't odd how when  you are younger that you long to get older and scoff at those who tell you not to hurry to be an adult. I just barely graduated high school and I miss it, I miss the fun and silliness, and the fact that the world was so much smaller. I wish I could go back and see it from the eyes of my present self. It seems like last summer was yesterday. A few days ago I was worrying about my physics project and freaking out because I lost that lab notebook.

My new favorite person in the media Craig Ferguson (in case you couldn't tell) and his wife are having a kid in 2011, to which you can only say congratulations.

I can't help but think about how far away is that for me. How much longer until I'm married and have kids, it seems like so long from now... years. But how long ago was it forever and a day to get through high school. It was only after I graduated that I realized how good we had it. High school was great for me. Obviously there are those issues of school work, exams, friends, drama and the like. However, I also got to continually run around school and just have fun and goof off. I wonder if people thought I had ADHD or was failing all my classes because I seemingly did no school work at school.

I worked during school and whined about it, however the jobs I had were probably some of the best ones I will ever have had. Great pay and easy work. Well not so easy, but everything seems a lot better when one has to weed in the Tennessean heat.

I have now entered the stage in life that is possibly the start of the big decisions. Life from now on is crucial and every little decision is important. Life is made up of all the little things and one should not be afraid to back out of something if they believe it to be the wrong choice. Life is too short to go with the flow and  settle.

You know what the funny thing is? Men can keep making babies for like EVER! Women on the other hand can't or won't. Well, unless your the Duggard family and are single handedly over populating the world. There is some people who should just not have more babies but adopt them.

On a lighter note...

Have you ever wondered why the one day that you need to go to X (insert important location, often associated with a boring adult chore), that that is the one day that an ornery lady with her equally, if not more so ornery child are there. Plus the child has to be the LOUDEST one, not a soft spoken child and have just missed nap time.

Did you know that even though it is summer, EVERYONE is EVERYWHERE. Here I thought people went to work or had jobs to do, excuse me. Maybe it's all the unemployed. However, if you are unemployed, I think you should reconsider your time trying to buy books at Mckay's, or trying to sell the ones you already have. Trust me when I say that you aren't going to get enough money to justify driving there and putting up with the hell it involves. But then again, it's not like you have somewhere to be or something to do.

On a bad day, things can only get worse. It starts off with that little thing, but then it only escalates. Not always do the things happening have to be so bad, but once you hit that bad mood, beware. Go look up Hyperbole and a Half's blog post called the Sneaky Hate Spiral for a more scientific approach.

Giant slides are not there for fun, well rather your fun. They are there so you will beef it and others will watch and laugh at your misfortune, probably filming it so it can be put on youtube, and maybe later on AFV.

I am pretty sure (now) that there are some people in the world that just can't sing, and it be pretty. I'm also fairly sure that I am one of these people. However, this does not stop me from singing my heart out at home. Yeah it is my home so I can do it.

Somehow, businesses will somehow get something wrong no matter what you do. Also there will always be more paper work, especially after you have done five million things to get it all fixed.

This is called the They Can't Help But Be Irresistible Photo Selection, each in their own way

The guy who doesn't even know he is that cute...

The guy that made killing people sexy (Heroes) and made logical thought something to be desired.

The Scottish Cheeky Monkey.

Making an average joe who isn't afraid to get his hands dirty look good again.

Bringing nerdy back.

Made Forty-something the new black.

And so there Hopefully this is a little bit better and more light hearted than my last peost which was me ranting(only half of it too)

Creative Blog Post Title

This week has been less than desirable so far. I BLED gas taking my sis to a computer class, in addition the parking lot nearly killed my car. $800 plus dollars in a few weeks is enough for me. I went to get my 18 yr old license at the DMV. Yeah, no need to really explain the DMV or its atmosphere because it is just something you have to experience. Went to McKay's and got a college text book and possibly the other one I need for the class. Will email teacher to find out, but for $4 it was an acceptable risk to take. I then went to my Dad's to rest for only a moment before I had to rush and get my sis again and then proceeded to wait at my dad's with baited breathe to see if I could get my new phone. After 3 hours it was clear that was not going to happen so I took my sis to her next destination and went home. I read a bit, but then went to sleep at nine.

Woke up this morning to a storm raging outside my window, and at 2Am I had enough sense to wonder if I was going to go to work today because of the storm. I wouldn't need to water the plants anymore as the massive hurricane did that for me. I then worked there with a small improv job at the next door neighbor's house. I then traveled to my dad's, when I changed into clothes that can only be described at Jimjams, AKA PJs. We got my phone and got some Chik-Fil-As waffle fries and a water.

While that's not all that exciting, it is one or two of the more eventful days of the summer. The bad news is that my sis is a brat sometimes and I therefor refused to take her to he class today; however, it was taken care of.
I do have some work tomorrow, however it is in a nice neighbor hood and shouldn't take too long. However, if it does it won't be so bad as I do need to make money.

I have bought my phone, paid all my car dues (with some of my dad's help), paid for my watch repair (they finally decided to bill me after months) and I am now feeling as if I am somehow bleeding money. However, all this is life and you have to deal.

Also, I am attending a Uni that costs close to 20 grand a year, and I begin to wonder if I should somehow attend a school that costs less. However, I REALLY want to go to this school, and hopefully God will work it out. Downfall of that is that sometimes God doesn't necessarily give you what you want, but what you need and will enrich your life that way. But like a small child I continue to whine when life could be worse.

I have a ton of books to read, one of which I have finished. American On Purpose by Craig Ferguson. Who thought the way to be inspired to be grateful and proud to be an American would be a Scotsman. From an outsiders point of view, this place is great. I also love my country-ness.

A funny thing on Youtube, other than Craig Ferguson, is that the Old Spice guy answers questions or comments via video.

I begin to wonder what it's like to attend college and whether or not I'm up to the challenge. I really want to get straight A's, not just because I do and I'm a little OCD like that, but because you get more money that way, you keep some grants/scholarships that way, you get more grants/scholarships that way, and I'm paying a ton of money to attend this school so you can understand that I want to make the most of it. I can't find anything for aspiring nurses/nurse practioners to get their schooling paid for if they do XYZ, ya know?

Sabbath was fun and I got to hang with some people I haven't seen in a while and don't normally hang out with. I got to see Eric, an honest to goodness good guy/kid. He's sweet and kind and not in the weird way either. There are 2 weird ways, one is creepy and one is like "oh, your home-schooled/unsocialized." But while talking to people they suggested I be a stand up comedian, and oh how I would. I mean I love to make people laugh and I love the feeling it gives you. Oh but how impossible that is in today's world, I mean I'm not  Craig Ferguson.

I wonder if I should minor in something, because as hard as that might be, I might also be more "marketable" as friend puts it. In addition maybe I should learn Spanish because it is a fairly common language.

Kids say that darnedest things

So one of the kids I babysit told me that I was manly. Not only that, but if I was a boy, I would play with Barbies... So I'm a gay boy? She has also pointed out my stretch marks, and for those who have them know, that you don't wish to dwell on these marks and you are also painfully aware of them. If not trying to rid yourself of them.

Yeah so I had to get my rear brakes fixed/serviced, a $125 job with a coupon. No the brakes had to be fixed as well as drums installed. These non-musical items consist of a magic material causing them to cost $92 per item. Overall $333 dollars was spent. Not so bad when you consider 333 is only half evil right? NO! I have maybe $300 left in my account and I need to pay for my school "fee."
Oh and I need to get my books for college, which is expensive, however, I have enacted a plan to try and buy the books cheap on Amazon, hopefully this will work. Or I will drown in the black hole where all my money used to be.

I might die, but whatever, don't tell anyone but God really is in control and He will help. He's a bit of a know-it-all, but in a good way. But also like in the way when you know your parents are right and you just don't want to admit it, even if you knew deep down inside at the beginning that they were right.

What Have I Learned So Far This Summer

Well, I haven't posted in a bit, and really only Steph is the one who reads this and really cares so it doesn't matter. However, I wish to write some more so here I go.

1. Sometimes not only Steph reads this blog.
2. Parents will always see you as their child and worry about you.
3. I'm glad I'm a U.S. citizen. Yeah, I am. The U.S.A. ain't perfect, but it sure is a heck of a lot better than some places.
4. We are living the good life.
5. I have overslept because I set the alarm for PM instead of AM.
6. Poison ivy will get ya. And get ya good.
7. I'm almost sure I want to be a Nurse Practioner. (You never know, I might change my mind.)
8. I think if I wouldn't go into something medical-like, I might enjoy something along the lines of a Detective/NCIS agent/CSI-ish person.
9. I really like puzzles, if only I had more.
10. Classic books and books written before all our silly main stream "best sellers" were good too. Sometimes better than some of that *Tootsie Fruitsie* stuff now-a-days.
11. You can't plan life as well as I thought ya could. Actually you can plan like a day a head or a weeks, but it's all subject to change. So much for control.
12. Life never turns out how ya planned it.
13. Craig Ferguson is probably one of the funniest people in the media, or in the world.
14. Robert Downey Jr is a great actor, wait we already knew that.
15. Drugs=bad. Even a little bit=bad.
16. Drinking will make you fat, for multiple reasons.
17. I'm an adult, but I'm not.
18. Cereal and milk is like the best thing since the creation of the sun.
19. The Avatar: The Last Airbender movie being a horrible recreation terribly saddens me.
20. Eating less results in weight loss.

So ya know Zuko from the Last Airbender was terribly angsty. However, if you think about it, his mother mysteriously disappeared, his father didn't actually care for him (Zuko kind of was just in the way), his sister was a  psycho who was the favorite of the remaining parent, his father scared him and banished him and sent him on a wild goose chase. Add all that to being a teenager and no wonder he was so angry!

Dogs are not the coolest animals. Okay?! They eat cat poop! I mean for real?
