Chin-Chillin
Today was full of nothing. I woke up, did my usual morning rutine. My Mom asked me if I wanted to go out and get some lunch with her and of course I agreed. We went to Applebees for lunch (the baddest mother fucking restaurant ever). I had this brand spanking new BLT melt or something. It was shitty as fuck. Never ever get it unless you want toast with lettace with this weak has peice of bacon in it. I dont even like bacon, I dont know why I got it. Actually I do. Because I was going to try something new and the hostess suggested it. Our server was shitty too. But dont let my anger fool you, Applebees is still the BMFRE. I think I want to go there tommorrow night for some wings. I'll suggest it. After we finished our food we hiked our asses over to the Unique Thrift Store. I picked up some new shoes ($5) a D.A.R.E shirt ($2) and a fucking sweet ass Navy like coat ($3). Some major scorage. I cant wait to bust out the coat. After I got home from hanging out with my Moms, I just sat around for a while. Continued my iPod project and edited some random ass videos. I'll be posting those random, half-assed videos online soon. Later Jon and I went to Nicks hockey game at the Osseo arena. It was a good but dissapointing game. Nicks team fell behind 3-0 early but climbed back in and eventually took the lead. The last period was closing with the score 4-3 in Nicks advantage but Edina scored with about 40 secs left and the game ended in a tie. A fucking waste of a win. It was a really good game though. Nick had some mean hits and he managed to score a goal. The drive there and back Jon and I tried to find some Cannibal Corpse songs that we might recognize on my iPod. Non yet. I managed to get all the way to Dane Cook today. Hopefully I can get F tommorrow. I plan to wake up earlier tommorrow. Otherwise no plans yet agian. I need to go to Hot Topic and return a shirt Jon got me for my birthday. I need to go to Blockbuster and return Monster House which we watched over the weekend during our Youth Group party. I need to go to Platos Closet and try and find me a plain black long sleeve layering t-shirt. I want to go to the movie theater before breaks end. I havent gone for a while. I also want to get one more football game in before break ends. Ben is coming over Thursday and we are planning to write some sweet ass songs, hopefully haha. Dean comes "Home" that night as well. Might be a good night for another Applebees run...maybe I shouldnt go to Bees tommorrow, but we could just go twice. Its just that sweet. We hung out with Brian May over the weekend and he requested a copy of the old The Hood video. I got that running upstairs. I will get that to him tommorrow and if he has time I want to sit down and watch that him. Look back at what we found funny 4 years ago. God damn its going to be weird. I am so glad I find video editing so fun. When you get to look back on old videos, it sends so many feelings and emotions through your body. Its pretty amazing.

Random Blurbs
God damn my last week of break feels unorthodox. It also seems liek it is going so fast and is actually very stressful. It feels like I am having to remember stuff to do and just a shit load of little things. I cant explain the feeling. It feels like there is always something hovering over my head and I cant get rid of it. Its the feeling you get when you have something on the tip of your tongue but cant get it fully out. I dont know, I'm just living my final week to fast.
I have a list of shit to do. I need to finish my "Pimp My iPod" project and I'm just getting through the C's. I need to clean my laptop out. I want to make a movie while I can. The other day while we were at Cub Foods I bought some corn startch so that I could try and make some fake blood. I needed to buy some red food coloring but those son bitches are expensive. I figured I dont even know if this is going to work so I would test the corn stratch and see if I can make the formula and then add some sort of coloring. I still need to find me a plain black long sleeve layering t-shirt. On top of all that I need to just chill, have fun and relax. I also want to write my song before breaks end and for that to happen I need Ben to have time. On top of all this, I just lost my fucking brand new iTrip that Ben bought me for my birthday. I didnt even have that thing for a week. The last time I remember seeing it is at Dawsons house when I took it off to put more songs on my iPod since the new iTrip goes into the bottom USB port. I remember taking it off, but I cant seem to find in anywhere, hence it is lost. I need to search Dawsons house a little more and my house. It would sure be nice to have a fucking iTrip agian. And I am to broke right now to drop $25 dollars for a new employee bought iTrip. FUCK!
Otherwise I've been sitting around doing the same old shit. We put it the Dane Cook Tourgasm documentary DVD for a little while at Dawsons this morning and I've come to realize I am fascinated by the tour life. I think it would be the ultimate experience. I love road trips, and when I'm chilling with friends I am sitting on my ass doing nothing but video games and dvds anywho. Then I lead myself to think, if I did it 4 months like many entertainers do, would I go crazy and just be sick of it? Still, it sounds like an amazing experience.
Lately, some of my friends have been so annoying. They aren't doing extremely gay shit or anything, but some of the hypocritical, ignorant and just stupid ass shit they say eats away at me. Probably about 3 of my friends just fall into the same group. The three of them have to exact same "focky" (Thats fucking cocky) personality. They always have to be right and they always have to be better then the next person when they are actually some of the least talented people I have ever come across. And they are so ignorant that they just yell shit all the time to put people down. I just wish they could take a step back and see them selves. I highly doubt this would ever happen because they are some of the most self centered people you will ever come across. Maybe self centered isn't the right word, but fuck it. Half my brain is trying to find my iTrip still. I wish I could list specific examples that occurred recently but I cant/wont in fear that it will offend some people. Maybe I will do it tommorrow morning or something. I fear that I am actually blind as they are and cant see myself doing the same thing. That would be the worst to find that out. I pride myself on being able to see the whole picture and make rational and reasonable judgements. The weirdest thing, and I feel horrible that I participate, is that the three rip on each other all the time. And they rest of the group joins in on the bashing cause everything they say of each other is true. But what they dont understand is what they are saying applies to them as well. No one has the heart to tell them because of the way they are. They would just reject the fact that they could maybe be wrong and reverse the criticism to the teller. They need to understand that the world might not revolve around them and god hasnt blessed them with the talent to do everything. Actually, god probably hasnt blessed them with any talent except for be blind. This sounds like the most D-Bag thing I can say, and it makes me sound like a huge hypocrit, but know that I am saying this knowing I come off that way and know that I dont mean it like that, but I probably am better at pretty much every single thing. There has to be a few exceptions, but still. Forgive me if my last statement is unforgivable, I dont mean it in a bashing manner but rather in an informative manner. But dont get me wrong, they are still pretty good people at heart. Actually one of the dudes probably has one of the kindest, yet tempered, hearts you will ever come across. They are good people and for the most part I am very greatful that I have crossed paths with them in life, but sometimes it just burns to be around them and their "Frocky," ignorant, and blind personalities. God damn I am a mean person haha. But my blogs are here for me to vent.
Let me ask you this. Do you think it is better to lead someone to think they are right to make them feel good or tell them the truth and ruin their whole world? Do you think it is okay to talk trash behind someones back because you cant confront someone of their wrongs? You need to vent when something is bothering you. I always believed in doing the "right" thing. Always tell the truth because in the end its much better. Well I still believe in that, but it is fucking hard. How can you just take down the support beams to what someone has believed in for so long? Its tough.

Been Busy
I havent been able to blog cause my daily schedule has been out of rhythem and alot of cool stuff has happened over that time that I should note. But I really dont remember alot of the things in detail anymore and there were some topics I was going to touch on that didnt involve experince and rather just stuff I thought about. I cant really write about them now and that sucks. So I am going to copy and paste Peters MySpace blog so I can atleast have the memories of some of the events that went down. Its the next best thing. I'll post it after a little blurb of my own.
Last night Andy and I watched the Dallas vs. Seattle game and it was a fucking sweet game! Tony Romo fumbled the feild goal and Dallas couldnt go up. They got the ball back for one more hail mary but wasnt able to convert it. The rest of the day prior to playoff watching was dedicated to the church Youth Group. We have pizza and movie night. It actually turned out to be alot of fun.
Peters Blog:
We went to Spin last Thursday and did the whole "club" scene but it felt like a concert with how much pushing there was and the total lack of space to dance in. I felt like elbowing people (Bow-nessa) just to get a little space. Wasn't one of the better nights, but the people were great (as always) and Perkins after was amazing (random assortment of people but all good). My ears are still ringing slightly from the bass.
Today was very random to say the least. I woke up much too late to enjoy a proper lunch (or any lunch at all) since Nick and I were meeting up at 3 to go and buy Min's birthday present plus I needed to pay for part of my tuition at NHCC and it was payday at work and I was very broke. So I got tuition out of the way first then I met up with Nick and we drove up to Warner's Stellian (We Work Harder To Earn Your Business!) and I picked up my check and then Nick and I went to my bank to cash it in. After all that we finally made it Ridgedale and worked our way to Spencer's Gifts where we proceeded to TRY and buy this four player game where you hold onto this handle thing and then you have to push the button attached to it before the others do when the music stops or it shocks the last 3. Pretty sweet game. Regardless, we get there and we don't see any left so we ask the guy if there's anymore and he said that he literally just sold the last one and we're like "Fuck!" since we had another idea but that was our best one. After a few minutes of standing there pissed off, we decide to look around Ridgedale since I bought a new belt buckle at Spencer's and I wanted a tacky, white belt to go with it. While we were walking around, Nick said, "Wouldn't it be weird if Jon bought that last game?" to which I replied, "That wouldn't happen. Jon wouldn't spend that much money on a present." We both agreed and I bought a belt at Zumiez and then we rolled back to Grove/Plymouth.
We picked up Nick's hot ride and then went to Min's house and met up with Min, Dick, Leah, Ben and Ben's g/f Shar. We walked inside and on the bar counter in Min's basement sat, lo and behold, the stupid shocking game! Nick and I had nothing to say but, "Did Jon buy that?..." to which Min responded, "Yeah! It's fuggin' sweet!" After that, Nick and I lost it! How sweet was it that Nick called that shit back at RD, but how fucking lame is it that we were out of a gift idea. While it was a win/ lose situation, we were both pretty pissed since we figured Jon was going to get Min something different. The lucky bastard has a hockey tourny this weekend so we can't kill him 'til he gets back. Regardless, we played the game (I can still feel the shock...) and Catchphrase with everyone. Ben and Shar went back to B-Town which left Min, Nick, Dick, and I without anything to do before or tri-weekly run to Applebees. We went to World Market to buy some cool snacks, but everything is way too expensive so we said F that noise and went to Plato's Closet to find Min a long sleeve black shirt. When we barely made it in the store the employees told us they were closing so we promptly left in an even worse mood and walked over to D in The V. Nick bought some stink bombs and I almost bought a poster, but I was burning through my paycheck much too fast so I stopped myself. We went to Cub next and Nick and I bought some Munchies to hold us over until Applebees. We went back to Min's house and watched Dick play GAW until A-Christ got off work.
Finally, we made it to Applebees and it was real busy, but since we had a smaller group, we got in pretty quick. We sat down and the plan was to:
A) Scope out a hot server.
B) Ask for her to be our server.
C) Request her weekly to build a "relationship" so that...
D) We could get stuff for "On The House."
A, B, and C didn't happen, but strangely enough, D did. They took forever to get Andy his fries so me, Nick, and Andy got ours for "On The House" which is always a good thing thanks to Andy's quick wit. Most nights we sit and bitch about something or talk sports, but tonight we actually had a solid convo. Min was complaining about "religion" and how he felt is was organized robbery of the mass populous of the world. And while religion is supposed to be the source of peace, it seems to be the greatest instigator for war. Andy is a history major so he had a lot of the history down and he covered that end while I spat out knowledge of the Lutheran faith and The Bible and all that jive. It was a great convo that lasted for at least an hour and it was nothing but un-interrupted talk which was nice for a change. I like going to A-Bees with Jon and the other guys, but it was nice to have a deep convo with guys that were genuinely into the topic. I don't know where Jon, Dean, or Mitch stand with their faith, but I have a much better understanding of where Min, Nick and Andy are. And I found some stuff out about myself too. Which brings me to my next topic...
Nick said that he was going to read The Bible and figure more out about what it says and where his faith lies, to which Andy and Min responded in kind that they would do it too. And when I got home tonight, I decided I was going to get deeper into my faith and really dig around and see what it's about. I've been a pretty un-Godly person as of late, and I'm sure it shows. But it's a new year and I'd like to try my best to be a better all around person and the one way I can truly achieve that is by being a better person in Christ. And while I'll slip up and falter, I will try my very best at this because it will only better my life. God has a strange way of sneaking back into your life, but I'm glad he chose tonight. My iTunes was on shuffle and the song that came up when I started writing this was "Best of You" by the Foo Fighters. It made me think about who was getting the best of me, and sadly, I can say that no one is truly getting the best of me. And this is another reason why I need to change my life around. I've been a terrible friend, a terrible son, a terrible student, and a terrible person for far too long. Now is the time to make a change. I have a new year, a new age (20) and a new outlook on life. I'm armed with the right tool and the right drive, and I know that I can do it. Any help that you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated since it's not going to be easy for me.
But back to the night. We got home around 12ish and we went over to B-May's house since he was having people over. It was nice to see him again and some of the guys from high school too. Me, Andy, and Min don't drink so we just kinda sat around and talked nerd for an hour and a half, taking small breaks to talk to Brian and the various random drunks there. It was a nice way to end the night, just chill and mull things over. I would call today a big success and I'm glad that I got to share it with some of my really good friends. If you're still around, I'd love to see you before you leave for school. I hope everyone is having a great semester/ break/ or whatever you're on right now. Right now I'm going to bed so I can catch some football before I start my day. I hope everyone is good, and I'll see you when fate decides to throw us together again.

Offically Mature
In about a half hour (I think) from when finish this sentence I will be 20 and no longer a teenager and that sucks. Peter Leisen was the first one first one to wish me a happy 20th birthday so thank you Peter. He knew it was technically my birthday before I did. Shortly after my sister sent me a text which was really nice of her since it was really late and she has school the next (or this) morning. Dawson wished me a happy birthday when I left and Andy hollered at me when he dropped me off. Skye texted me a happy birthday wish while on the way home from Dawsons. When I got home I had a MySpace birthday wish from McKenna and an early facebook wish from Dar. Barnett wished me a happy birthday via AIM the other day as well. I kinda dont like talking about my birthday cause it makes me feel like an attention seeking prick. But there is no denying that it is indeed my Birfday. I have nothing big planned. Really I've had nothing to do at all for these last few days. Ben is coming over tommorrow which makes me happy because with him I can atleast play Halo with him and listen to and write music. Honestly, at this point in my musical life, I could write music with Ben all day. But I think that would be extremely broing for him. Something about being creative and doing what ever the hell you want is so me. Working toward an end purpose that represents you is very appealing. Peter is going to the dance club tommorrow so if a few other people I know want to go, I might be going to that. It would be a nice change up and it would be something to do. Back to music though. I've noticed and people pointed out today that I've been dressing different lately. More "emo" I guess you could call it. Before I thought it would just be weird to dress like that. I thought those people were doing that just to get into the "scene." But it doesnt matter to me anymore. During this past tough time in my life, music has helped me in so many ways. I always read articles from young music listeners about how music "Saved My Life" blah blah blah. Although I never had suicidal thoughts, I can say music has kept my life together long enough for me to make it through my troubles while staying sane. Music helped me vent alone. Music listined to me and I listined to it. Music helped me release my emotions. So if the way I dress can express my debt to music so be it. I dont think I look "Emo" and I dont want to with the tight pants and shirt, but lets say "Indie." An alternative way to express my personalized style and thanks to music. I know there are alot of "Emo" haters out there and thats fine. Fuck them. They just dont understand. This all still sounds gay to me, but it worth it. And hey, its a challenge I put on myself to be more honest in 2007. Even if that means I put myself out there for embarrassment. Fuck everyone haha. But ya, if they way I dress can express what type of music I listen to and how deeply I feel for it, perfect. Mission complete.
Today was another slugglish day. Woke up, ran around and did chores with my Mom and had lunch with her. I started my "Re-Pimp Your iPod" project today and it should take me a while to finish. I am converting all my songs into 128bit MP3s then putting them onto my iPod one artist at a time. I want my iPod to be perfect. Agian, music is worth it. I am also going to use the new iTunes tool and paste all the album artwork into all my songs. Right now I got through all the numbers and through Acceptance. I have to convert the over sized MP3s into AAC to save room on my iPod and then convert them into 128bit MP3s to save room on my harddrive. Then I have to organize everything on my harddrive so I know where everything is. It makes it tough when I have singles from artists cause its gay making a whole folder for one song. "Its all worth reaching for."
Later Dawson came over and we ran around the Shoppes for a little while then went to his place. We did some sweet 2 player Guiatr Heroing and then I helped him on a video project for a little while. I really dont think I am good at video editing but seeing a beginners work and my work kind of opens my eyes. It feels like I've been doing to same thing for years now but after today I see that I really have improved over the years. What seemed to basic to me, doesnt come easy to everyone. Videos have a certian rhythm to them and maybe music helps me there agian. Haha, fucking music. Makes me wonder if I still work at it, if I can still get better. Its pretty amazing that I taught myself how to do all this and the natural talent that I was blessed with (Haha, that sounds REALLY REALLY cocky but I didnt know how else to state that. Forgive me, I dont mean to sound like a prick. I mean everything I saw humbly and modestly). After I helped with that we went for a quick Wendys run then we watched House of Wax. I love me my shitty horror and sci-fi movies. This one didnt dissapoint. I really like the wonderful quotes you get from the stupid protagonists as they buckle under pressure. People could turn stupid from watching all the stupid moves and choices in horror movies. Later Andy came over and we went to Applebees which was kind of a waste since I wasnt that hungry and we didnt go to our usual Applebees. I shouldnt have eaten anything cause I wasnt hungry and now its just going to turn into fat. Oh well. After we just sat around and watched Dawson's tube. House of the Dead 2 was on for a little while so we watched it for a little while.
Happy 4th of Jan everyone! Its a magical day! haha.

3 Blogs in one Day?!
Yes, indeed. Its just been done! Haha...real special Min...
I just got back from a Applebees lunch with the family. I got the cowboy burger. I was going to say the usual cowboy burger but now'a days I only go with the crew after 9 and get half priced boneless wings. And frankly I'm quite sick of the cowboy burger. The greese factor on that son bitch is to intense. Andy has become a vegetarian and I think that has slightly motivated me to eat a little healthier. The whole winter break I've monitered my diet but being around Andy helps me be more conscience of it. The whole winter break I've been wanting to visit the thrift store more frequently but being that I am carless has made it very tough. And honestly, if I dont force my friends and yell at them a little, they would rather just sit in the basement and sit around. But I feel horrible making my friends get up and drive me to a place I want to go. So I just scrape the thrift store idea unless they want to. My friends cant decide for them selves and I could be more of a leader figure, but I dont want to be rude either. I've come realize that my friends dont like to be challanged or challenege them selves. I think Dean, Andy, Ben and I are the only ones with enough "sight" and heart to challenge ourselves to help us become better people. Sometimes not Dean, but he is better then the others.
Not much to update on since this is my third blog in less then 12 hours and its only 2 hours past noon. I was thinking the next few days of my break might be lame since Jon has to go to school tommorrow and Mitch managed to break his car agian, but Peter and I planned some things our and Ben and I have some plans in line. So it might turn out that these next few days might be more eventful then the prior two weeks of my break. We will see and of course I will jot down my thoughts on my life here. I pretty much do this knowing that in two years I am going to read all my old blogs and laugh at myself. Its amazing how much someone changes. You cant tell when you are changing slightly over time, but when you can look at life in intervals, you see dramatic chnages. This is my way of leaving little memos of me.
I just had a great talk with two people we might not expect I'd be having great talks with. It was the first time I talked to more then 5 people on AIM for a LONG LONG time. I talked to Skye and Mack about life, school and stress. Its special that I can just say hi to people and talk about the deeper things in life with people that I am not all that close to. I mean I caring person and I care about them with all my heart. I am not an evil person at all so its just how I feel about people. But I wouldnt say I am as close to Skye and Mack when I compare them to Jon or Dean. It sounds like they are going through the same things as me. I really feel for them and I wish we were closer so that I could talk to them and help them.
I am listening to Brand New right now. They are amazing. Their lyrics are so dark and perfect.

2007 Madness
Jesus 2007 has been moving quickly so far! I rang 2007 in with my family and friends. After the ball dropped, The Hood and I pranced around the neighborhood in our boxers, screaming like little pansies while digging around in the fresh snow. The new years party at Jon's was suppose to be a one day thing, but because of the snow, Connie (Jon's mother and my second mother for those who don't know) told everyone to spend the night and avoid the dangerous road conditions. I could write a whole blog, or novel! about how much the Franklin family has helped me and the kindness and generosity they have showed my over the years, but that would take forever so I will only touch on it. They are fucking amazing and some greater force has blessed me by putting them in my life. Anywho, back to 2006 to 2007. The last day of 2006 started out with a football game. Good, cause I love football. Its a shame that I didnt get to watch any football, but it was worth it. The snow fell very hard the whole day and it make for very slipper and interesting football conditions. The feild was very soggy and had spots of mud and slush but it was extremely fun to play in. Andy and I pretty much dominated the whole game, and therefore we won. Everyone else played like pansies and it was quite dissapointing. I dont see how a little snow effects your game that much. Personally, all sounds like a bunch of bull shit to me. Thats what separates the soliders (Andy, Dean and I) from the rest. No excuses, just hard work and effort. Oh, I regret to inform you that we missed out on collecting footage because we had no camera person. But I doubt you could see anything even if we tried since it was snowing so hard. Maybe next time eh? I love watching our football footage. Anywho, after football we all got cleaned up and had a little din din at Jons. Sat around, played some VG's (Mostly Melee) and then Leah and Natalie came over and we played Catch Phrase. Probably one of the most amazing games ever. What is really sad is how bad people are at the game. The first teams were Leah, Natalie, Andy and I vs. Jon, Peter, Mitch and Nick. Teams dont look bad on paper. I figured Andy and I haven't hung out for an extended period of time for a while and Leah and Natalie are...well...Leah and Natalie haha. But they are close friends so I thought it would even things out a little. On the other end, I figured Jon and Nick would click and Peter is pretty good at English. What I didnt consider is that everyone on their team is pretty narrow sighted and dont really see things from other peoples point of views. One of the worst Catch Phrase ass whoopings in history. Let me explain how bad it was. I dont remember if it was a skunk or not (I believe it was) but when the match ended, we hadn't finished one card. We beat them without usuing 75% of one card. After we had to switch teams. We moved Me and Andy to the team. We had to go into a tie breaker but in the end Andy and I were to much for the little girls. After we rang in the new year in our boxers (as mentioned before) we watched Jackass2. Damn that movie is good. Those guys are friggin crazy. I remember when I looked up to them haha. I went to bed pretty early. I woke up first but waking up first at sleep overs suck. Everyone else is sleeping and you have nothing to do. So I layed there on the couch for 2 hours until people started waking up. Nick left early because he had family chores he needed to tackle and Mitch left because he got called into work. OH! Side story! You do not want to sleep in the same room as PETER. He is the worst snorer EVER!! My Dad snores and Dick snores a little, but I've never been so bothered by someone snoring! It sounds like a bear playing with a jackhammer. It is the worst!! Anywho, I layed there on the couch and I could hear my phone going off because of texts but I was to lazy to read them. Jon woke up first and we killed some Sega together. When Peter and Andy woke up we played a shit load of Melee. After, we went out to Arbor Lakes but as we got there all the stores were packing up. We wanted to eat Chipotle but they were closed so I suggested that we go to Cub Foods and limit ourselves to a $20 budget and make our dinner. And thats what we did. It was fantastic. We made our selves some really intense subs. Andy had a eggplant sub since he is a fag/veggie eater. I had a turkey. Jon and Peter had a ham sub. This doesnt sound that special but you have to see the subs. They were pretty amazing. I will post the video on here one soon. We recorded most of the creatin of the subs. Jon goes back to school on Wed so I will have alot of time on my hands here. I will spending alot of time online haha. After we ate, we played more melee. Its pretty much been out lives these last 4 days. Peter left shortly. Andy, Jon and I continued to play more melee. I think more then 50% of our day was dedicated to Melee. Sad? I think not. After we spent some time watching the tube and we called it a night since Jon needs to get his sleeping pattern on track for school. And that put a wrap on the first day of 2007. I hope the remainder of my winter break can bing me such happiness.
Agian, Happy New Year everyone!
Agian, Happy New Year everyone!
2007!
Another year has come and left us. I hate having to think about the year that was. Knowing that all the good memories and all the fun times are all in the past. I hate knowing that I made alot of mistakes during 2006 and there is nothing I can do to fix them. I hate thinking about how unsure 2007 is going to be. But with risk comes reward and I hope I can look back when 2008 rolls around and tell myself you lived 2007 to the fullest. I think 2006 was the year I grew up. It could be that I feel that way only because its the year I remember most since it was the most recent. But it really could be the year that I learned alot about myself and the people around me. I am starting to feel the real life adult stresses (and it sucks haha) and I experienced my first heartbreak. It may seem like my 2006 sucked a little, but I am glad those growing pains chose 2006 to strike. 2006 also brought a new taste of music into my life. I am a devoted music listener. I mostly listen to Emo, Screamo, Post-Hardcore, indie rock. I try to explore more mainstream music so I'm not completely out of the loop, but its hard to listen to that crap since it is so horrible. In the past, I used to explore for more up and coming "rock" bands. But recently there whole "scene" has gotten very messy. There all these little "emo" bands out there and it makes it very difficult to find the really good bands since you have to dig through so many layers of shit bands. Like there is this one band Quality Under Pressure...and they rock! haha. Anywho, I dont really explore music that much anymore. I just wait for other people to sieve through the garbage for me and when a band rises I'll check them out and see if they are the real deal or if they are just a fling. I would advise everyone to check out the brand new Brand New cd if you haven't yet. It really is something else. If you are into darker more "emo" music. Agian, it could be that it is one of the most recent cds to come out and freshest in my mind, but I really feel like this cd will live for a long long time. Of course the Senses Fail cd came out in 2006 along with the lastest Underoath cd. Check those out as well!
It is only two days into 2007 and it already feels like time is moving to quick. I think overall 2006 was a very good year. I went to alot of concerts, spent time with people I really love, experienced life, and just lived to the fullest. But I hope 2007 brings even greater things. Greater people, experiences, music, and memories. Who knows, maybe I'll actually grow up, foregt about koodies and hook up with a girl haha. Maybe she will be the love of my life and my future wife. Probably not eh? haha. I hope you all had a wonderful 2006 and my best wishes for 2007!

MySpace Blog
I'm actually going to copy and paste from a MySpace blog I wrote. How sad ahaha.
I still have some time here before kickoff at what seems like Bass Lake Lambeau. We got a good old 3 on 3 backyard football game planned and then chilling with the best peoples in the world. My Mom just informed me that there is going to be a family lunch at 1:30 which made me upset cause I can't go since kickoff is planned for 2:30. I might have to go see the ball drop with my Mom and Dad to make up for it. I really want to go to lunch with my my family and extended family but "Flash" called in so we could play and that just wouldn't be fair for him. I've pretty much spent every day with what I guess we can still call "The Hood." We got some old members back, and new ones and it makes me happy that we are the closest we have been in a while. I hope everyone reading this is spending the night with people they really care about. There are some names that would have been with us tonight in the past, but won't be but thats okay. I've come to find out that I can't hold on to some things no matter how hard I try. And if they are the ones that want to leave, thats okay. I still feel like a pussy teenager talking about heartbreak and friendship...but what are we living for then? Isn't interacting and laughing one of the most human things we can still do? Money only gets us so far, but with family, friends and love, I think its endless. While I'm on the topic of heartbreak I should really say thanks to Ben Lee (I dont think he reads these anywho ahah). We went through a little bit of a rough time, but I feel that he has been trying as hard as I am to mend things while we can during winter break. I know he has other peoples he needs to see and visit, work, and I know he has morphed into this party animal so I know he has keggers to attend and vodka to chug or whatever you people like to ruin your livers with, but it honestly feels like with what ever spare time he has left, he has dedicated to me. And the one time we have spent together felt like old times. No grudges or anything. Just Halo and music. It makes me happy that 16 years of friendship weren't put to waste. He even invited me to spend the day with his girlfriend when she comes down and he told me he would spend the day with me after work on my birthday. All of that means alot to me. And although I wish he could spend the day with us on New Years Eve, I know what New Years Eve is all about, and I also know there isn't going to be any Hennessy at Jons house tonight haha. And it means alot to me that he would invite be to chill with his girlfriend cause I know they usually "party" together. It seems like all my friends ban me from places where alcohol will be present cause I'm not going to drink. Mother fuckers, I'm still a social person. Isn't that everyones excuse for why they use it, to get loose?
Anywho, I feel really stupid cause I'm a 19 soon to be 20 year old grown man and I am talking about heartbreak and friendship. But come on, its my first ever heartbreak (Kinda gay that its not with a girl or something) and I think bonds between people are the strongest and most meaningful things in the world. Loyality, honor and those "unwritten" rules as well. The "human things" lets call them. I've become some sensative girl but thats okay, I am happy with the person I've become. I can be more honest to myself and everyone. But I understand it changes the way I present myself and if you want to make fun of my cool, I'll probably laugh with you. But understand you need to know the fine balance.
Anywho, enough of about the serious shit. I wish I could write about the fun times yesterday but I really need to get ready for kickoff so I will write about them later. Maybe not here and just in my blogspot. If its good I'll copy paste. But we had some good times last night.
As for this football, if we find ourselves a camera person I will edit the footage and post a second football video.
I hope everyone has a beautiful and wonderful New Years Eve. Its not my most happy time of the year which I will explain later to the people who don't know why. But enjoy your time and stay safe. I'll be out on the road looking for drunk drivers to run into haha.
HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE!!

Lets Catch Up
I havent been able to post any blogs the last few days just cause I've been pretty busy. A couple of days ago Ben came over after work and slept over. We made a late night Perkins run, and hit up Walmart after. Before we went to bed to LANed HALO. It was an okay session. No one really showed up except for Ben and I. That night I figured out why some people don't like playing Halo. If you suck, you probably are not going to want to play with some elite people. It seems like the people that suck always give up half way or avoid the game. There are only a select few in our group that actually like to be challenged. Its pretty obvious when you look at the current status of the people I hang out and it kind of makes me sad because most of the people I hang out with are very kind at heart. They just dont ever push them selves. I'm not saying that if you suck at Halo you are going to fail at life, but that is just an example of an extention of their personalities. I think suburban life has affected them all in a way where they think they can have what ever they want when ever they want. If they start failing at it, they quit and the thought of getting better at something is skipped.
We played Halo until 6 in the morning and after we got cleaned and headed over to Peters. There Ben and I put our minds together agian and got alot further on our latest song. Ben got his guitars in and put in this sweet bell part. Later Peter got some sweet drums in that turned out nice. I finally had a chance to put some vocals in. I feel they were not the best, but I need practice to get better. This is pretty much my first chance and I was pretty nervous since everything else was sounding so good. I look foward to a couple of more opportunities where hone and craft what I want myself to sound like. I challanged myself and I want to be a better singer. The screaming in the song sounded good enough to me, but the vocals are still a little off. Agian, the challenge I presented with myself isn't going to be easy, but my competitive nature makes it so exciting. I guess you just have to be born with drive and passion (I should have stated this above). I also want to work on writing lyrics. I made these lyrics kind of quick thinking that I might have a chance to lay them down the first night Ben and I worked on the song. In the future I hope to have a couple of hours to think about an emotion and an event that has effected me and put some true "guts" and "spirit" into the lyrics. Making music with Ben has to be one of the funnest things I can do right now. It would be awesome to do it for a living and actually make money doing something we would do anyways.
After we finished at Peters we went to the Osseo ice arena and watched some of Nick and Jon's hockey game. Of course I cheered my little yellow ass off. The next morning, I was so jet lagged from the sleep over I woke up close to 11 a.m. I only had time to do some chores and get cleaned up so I didnt have time to blog. The sad thing is I rushed myself to a day filled with nothing. I wanted to have a few days where I did nothing, but now it just feels like I am wasting my winter break so I got to get active. Thats why Mitch and I planned for a little more upbeat day. Matinee movie and thrift store action! We plan on watching the new Will Smith joint "In Pursuit of Happiness." The movie looks very emotional and I probably will cry like a little bitch (Which reminds me I have to look up movie times. This blogging service works wonders!). Then thrift store. We dont know which one yet. I talked to some people and I plan on visiting some old highschool friends one of these times. Nick and Jon have hockey games tonight and I always have fun screaming at little kids. They are on seprerate teams and play at seperate arenas so which ever is more convenient is the one I will go to.
I wish I could get into more detail about everything I just talked about but it is now 12:10 and I need to get cleaned up for the day.
Have a beautiful day everyone! (I really dont think anyone reads these haha)
We played Halo until 6 in the morning and after we got cleaned and headed over to Peters. There Ben and I put our minds together agian and got alot further on our latest song. Ben got his guitars in and put in this sweet bell part. Later Peter got some sweet drums in that turned out nice. I finally had a chance to put some vocals in. I feel they were not the best, but I need practice to get better. This is pretty much my first chance and I was pretty nervous since everything else was sounding so good. I look foward to a couple of more opportunities where hone and craft what I want myself to sound like. I challanged myself and I want to be a better singer. The screaming in the song sounded good enough to me, but the vocals are still a little off. Agian, the challenge I presented with myself isn't going to be easy, but my competitive nature makes it so exciting. I guess you just have to be born with drive and passion (I should have stated this above). I also want to work on writing lyrics. I made these lyrics kind of quick thinking that I might have a chance to lay them down the first night Ben and I worked on the song. In the future I hope to have a couple of hours to think about an emotion and an event that has effected me and put some true "guts" and "spirit" into the lyrics. Making music with Ben has to be one of the funnest things I can do right now. It would be awesome to do it for a living and actually make money doing something we would do anyways.
After we finished at Peters we went to the Osseo ice arena and watched some of Nick and Jon's hockey game. Of course I cheered my little yellow ass off. The next morning, I was so jet lagged from the sleep over I woke up close to 11 a.m. I only had time to do some chores and get cleaned up so I didnt have time to blog. The sad thing is I rushed myself to a day filled with nothing. I wanted to have a few days where I did nothing, but now it just feels like I am wasting my winter break so I got to get active. Thats why Mitch and I planned for a little more upbeat day. Matinee movie and thrift store action! We plan on watching the new Will Smith joint "In Pursuit of Happiness." The movie looks very emotional and I probably will cry like a little bitch (Which reminds me I have to look up movie times. This blogging service works wonders!). Then thrift store. We dont know which one yet. I talked to some people and I plan on visiting some old highschool friends one of these times. Nick and Jon have hockey games tonight and I always have fun screaming at little kids. They are on seprerate teams and play at seperate arenas so which ever is more convenient is the one I will go to.
I wish I could get into more detail about everything I just talked about but it is now 12:10 and I need to get cleaned up for the day.

God I'm Behind
I failed writing on here everyday of my winter break. But I have a very good excuse, I've been busy. Very busy! Its all Bens fault.
But tommorrow when I wake up, I promise I will write.

Post X-mas Syndrome
What ever my title is, I dont have it. Just sounded cool.
Nothing really new to update on but I just love writing on this site so much I had to do it. I promised myself I would write on here everyday of winter break. It was so much fun going back about 2 years and reading what I wrote in my MySpace blogs that I want to keep it going so in about 2 more years I can write about how nonstressful my life really was. I usually make good on promises.
Yesterday all I did was edit random videos all day. Editing random videos really makes me want to capture some actual footage that I can use. Hopefully I can throw something together soon. I'll probably throw the new crap on youtube or something. And trust me, they really are crap.
Otherwise I spent about an hour of my night collecting "Backyard Footage Fantasy Football" stats and posting them on myspace (I'll copy and paste them on here as well). After, Jon came over and I finally opened Monkey Ball and we killed that for about two hours. Its no Mario Party, but it'll last us for a little while. We only had two Wiimotes so I look foward to what 4 play mayhem might be like. Hopefully a little more focused then Elebits haha. That shit is still fun though.
I really enjoy listening to Jons catalogue of Christmas presents every year haha. The first thing he told me when he walked downstairs was all the presents he got. I notcied yesterday you can please that guy with pretty much anything, but I guess thats what happens when you deal with someone has kind hearted as Jon. He got some sweet presents, but he got also got some not so "attractive" articles of clothes but he treats them like gold. So I guess it could be two thing; 1) He is happy with everything he gets, or, 2) He is not a fashion guru. But neither am I.
Today holds no plans for anyone. Jon and I planned a sleep over and I just got a wonderful text from Ben that he is going to join us that makes me soo happy. This way we can spent some time playing Halo and other VG's and write some wonderful music. I dont know why, but I REALLY enjoy writing music. Well I kinda know why, because I fucking love music, but we aren't that good. After hearing that Ben would join us, I also figured we will need to make a late night Perkins trip. I still want to visit the Thrift store!! haha. Oh, I still need to call Skye and everyone else I want to see over break.
Hopefully I can post something later today talking about how sweet stuff is going...but then agian, if I am doing fun stuff, why would I waste my time on here? Because I love you.

Nice!
I didnt know if you could embed videos on here but thats pretty sweet that you can. I posted the football footage we collected when we had our weekely football stint. Its roughly edited, but it was really just meant to get the action out. The editing helps it flow a little better. It was the first time we played in over a year I think. Some of the things some people say are really funny and you will hear the sound bits through out the video. Watching everyone really helps me understand what kind of player everyone is. Knowing what people do off the ball should help me draft next time around.
Christmas Day
I hope everyone has a beautiful Christmas and I hope everyone got what they wanted from Santa. I didn't have anything on my wish list. I guess there are a couple of items that I wanted but they aren't necessary to my happiness so I don't ask for them. The things I really are things that can't be bought with money. So I'm kind of out of luck.
There are a handful of concerts I am considering attending. The only one for sure is the Underoath, Taking Back Sunday and Armor for Sleep concert on March 4th. Tickets were pretty expensive but its going to be worth it. $36 dollars per person after all those little fees. If anyone is thinking about going to the Brand New concert you should tell me. I am thinking about going to that one but I have a lack of funds so it depends and I want to know who else they are playing with. I am also thinking about going to the Anberlin concert since it is $10. Dirt cheap! Bayside is supporting them along with Meg and Dia.
Anywho, I'll probably be updating a couple of times today since my x-mas is probably going to pan out as a pretty lame one.
Merry Christmas everyone!

On the Eve
Christmas eve. Time seems to move a little slower on Christmas eve. Nothing to worry about, and since it landed on a Sunday I sat around and watched football all day. I havent been able to sit around and just concentrate on watching football for a long time. I'm glad I got a chance to today since today is our fantasy football championship between Jon and I. I am in prime position to win be another football league and like my fifth strait fantasy league win. I am roughly 6 points down with Brian Westbrook and Tony Romo to play on Monday night. Jon has L.J Smith going for him on Monday night but I still dont think it should be a problem. On a sad fantasy note, I lost my first week in our fantasy basketball league 4-5.
Last night the church came over for a dinner party. The little kids in our church always manage to break something when they come over and they didnt disappoint a soul last night. And I managed to get slammed in the nuts, well, it was actually just my right nut. I let the little brats try out my Wii and it might have been one of the scariest experiences I've had in a while, but there is a reason behind letting them try things. Its because when I was a young'n at the church many older students helped me have alot of fun when they would have dinners at their house. I kind of wanted them to experience the same thing. The Wiimote and TV managed to stay intact. Jon came over towards the tail end of the dinner and after we got sick of babysitting we walked over to Jon house where Peter and Andy met up with us. We played Elebits until and watched some TV. When it seemed like everyone was sick of Elebits we went to the friendly neighborhood Applebees. Bees never fails us when we are looking for a cheap snack and good conversation atmosphere. We touched various topics. We thought of the perfect concoction for Dean when he gets back from Hotlanta. He is going to die and it is going to be great. We also talked about the NFL where Peter failed to name a single NFC team. After we finished with our snack, we thought we would pay Wal-Mart a visit agian. We ran into many exciting products that we would buy if we had extra change to waste. We wasted most of our time in the $5.50 bucket of DVDs. I would say a safe 35 minutes of our time went to digging through hundreds of DVDs. Its pretty sad but Decoys won out of all the movies. The movie is a poorfly made Sci-Fi movie about a female alien race that came to Earth to re-populate. It was REALLY bad. But were we expecting greatness? HELL no! We wanted to watch a shitty Sci-Fi/Horror movie and it lived up to the hype. Thanks to Andy for making our Sunday morning brilliant. I woke up around 11 o'clock this morning mostly because I got home at 4 a.m since we needed to finish Decoys.
After a football packed day, I pretty much have nothing to do. My famo doesnt really go all out for Chirstmas so nothing really to look foward to either. Leah came home from work with the Monkey Ball game for the Wii which I am very excited to play when we have 4 Wiimotes. The mini-games are going to be off the chain.
Leah is still going through her little "PMS, I am the Queen of the world because I know all" phase. It bugs the hell out of me, but my Mom tells me to be the mature one. But sometimes you just want to knock the shit out of her cause she is so dumb.

Mission: Failed
In my previous blog I stated that we were going to get an early start since Dean had to leave that night. Well, we didnt. Jon and Dean woke up around 2 p.m and Dean's Pops came to pick him up around 3ish or 4ish. Jon went to hockey and when he and Nick finished up they both came to my house and Peter joined us. We played some Melee and layed low. We made a Taco Bell run right before midnight and also stopped by Wal-Mart so I could pick up some X-mas presents for the little kids at my church. It was a pretty fun night and I wish I could go into more detail but I just dont have that kind of time right now. The reason being that the church came over for dinner and for such a small church there are alot of little brats. They will fuck up everything in their path so I kind of have to babysit and monitor the safety of my basement.
The roads are slippy as hell, drive safe people.

Fun Hangover
Yesterday was a day well spend in my opinion. The messy road conditions due to the ice/snow made it harder for us to go out, but we managed to have alot of fun. I woke up earlier then most like usual and did some chores. I started editing our football footage and it was HILARIOUS! After I got my hair did I joined Jon, Dean and Nick in the back yard. Andy joined us later. We made snow Bonobos and goofed around.
After it was all done, we just sat around and didnt do much.
Later that night Andy, Dean, Jon and I went for our late night, or I guess it would technically be our early morning Perkins run. We didnt get our usual server Joel, which made us a little sad but we managed. I love it when we can all get together and make trips to Perkins or Applebees and just chat about stuff. We talk about anything and everyone has input which makes is very exciting. We often find our selves talking about dreams alot. This time around I brought up what do you think your wife would be like and we got into it a little bit. Its been nice having Andy around lately. I really appreciate his company when we have our dinner talks. I feel like I can talk to him about more things then I can with others. Jon is full of energy but sometimes it feels like he is still a little to young, sometimes he cant keep up with our conversations. Dean is able to keep up, but sometimes he is a little dull and more sensitive topics seem to bother him. Andy finds a balance and it makes it very easy to talk to him about things and then he has good input after. There is alot of bad history between Andy and I, and I never really thought we would hang out agian like we are doing, but I'm glad things have changed. He has been a nice addition to our little group which seems to be dying off fast. There are alot of reasons behind my change of heart, mostly guilt, but I won't share at this time. Maybe in a future blog, I'll express what I am thinking and feeling. Jons friend Nick has also been hanging out with us alot and I find it great that he is doing so. I could care less about a persons social status or where he or she comes from. But if a person is truly kind at heart, thats really all that matters isnt it? Lately, it seems like I misjudge alot of people. I give them to much credit then deserved. I hope I am not making that mistake here.
Anywho, we were supose to have a early start on the day since Dean is leaving later tonight to Atlanta, but Jon and Dean havent called me yet so I can assume they are sleeping.

Snowing in Minnesota!?
Ya, it finally came. A little late, but I guess thats okay. Take that fucking Al Gore. I woke up to the sound of rain this morning and I was thinking it was going to be a warm day, but that quickly changed. All the rain on the ground turned into ice and the rain turned into that soft floating snow that tends to kiss our cheeks with love. The roads are very slippery right now. The fresh snow that has just landed is prime for making snow men, balls, ect. We made a couple of very large snow boulders and a snow bonobo. After we destroyed all our creations we got trixy with snowboards. The funniest part was when we tried to imitate Mario Kart: Double Dash. We first tried to do a triple dash which quickly failed then Dean and Jon continued with the Double Dash mission. When we had enough failure we quit. All of us are now getting cleaned up. We have no plans yet tonight. We might go to Jons hockey game at nine. Otherwise we really wanted to go to the Thrift Store but the poor driving conditions turn us away.
We'll see.
We'll see.
We Have Lift Off
My first day of winter break 2006-07 is finished. It was a rather slow day, but I cant complain, this is what I asked for. The time and chance to do nothing. Not a damn thing. I woke up, went out with my Mom hit up a few stores, ate lunch at the friendly neighborhood Applebees. Then I came home and went out with Peter to go pick up Dean then we just sat in my basement. It was grand. We played some Melee but thats about all I remember. It was the dullest day ever. Today we are hoping to get out a little more and I am looking foward to it. We were thinking about playing some basketball but I woke up to the sound of rain falling. Basketball!? In the middle of Dec in Minnesota. Thats nuts. Thank you Al Gore for all you do.
Anywho, I am just writing this to test out the whole set up of the website. I am kind of still getting used to it. They let you customize everything.
