so many ideas...

So I've decided to start updating my blog. It may help me gather my thoughts a bit and give me perspective!! Also, my brain has lots of shiz it needs to get out. Maybe then I won't have such bad dreams! (haha...but seriously.) Here's some pics from my awesome summer.

Summer lessons

So in my time as a vagabond this summer i've come to think alot about my life. Where i'm heading, who I want to become, and how i'm going to get there. you know...deep stuff. This summer's main theme for outdoor fun has been going on tons and tons of hikes. On one specific hike i noticed that a majority of the time i would watch others in my group take the normal route to get to their final destination. Usually I got bored, so I would blaze my own trail and try and find a new, more exciting way to get to the end of my crazy hike.

Sometimes I would get stuck and i couldn't go back to get on the right path because i had already gone so far into unknown territory, usually not even thinking about the consequences of what lied ahead. But i was committed and would have to find a way around to get back on the path to my journey's end. While I'd be stuck on these random "other" paths i created i would sometimes stop and watch the rest of my group go along the normal path with ease and i would think to myself, "I wish I had just taken the path and I wouldn't even be in this predicament." (visualize me stuck on some huge rock in the middle of a river while everyone else calmly walks around) But somehow i'd get through my off road excursion and make it back with the others.

So what did i learn? I learned that even though I personally don't always do things the way other people may expect, and even make things harder on myself. It's okay, because I always somehow get back on the right path anyway. I sometimes regret my actions but in the end i'm always a lot more happy with doing it my way despite how dumb it may be sometimes. I think it's what helps keep life interesting and worth living.

why my friend maren should never shun me...ever.

here are some reasons why my good friend maren should never ever shun me.


i sit next to her when we go out to eat.


i invite her over to my house to play rockband.


i invite her to do waterslides in the park. even though
we were already done. my bad.


on her birthday a few years back i baked her a heroes
cake. i know..awesome, right?


i share my food with her.


i don't judge her for being a hardcore britney spears
fan. (even though i should)


and the most awesome reason she should never
ever SHUN me. is because we look so funny
when we dance together. booyah!

my summer stinkin' job..

So. On May 1st I drove my butt out to Modesto, CA to start my new job as a bug boy. That didn't go down due to the owner of the company being a fraud who had no money so now i work for APX. It's a home security company that sells.. you guessed it!! SECURITY SYSTEMS!! yeah, so i'm a salesman doing that. Knockin' doors seemed so much easier as a missionary. ANyway, so that's what I've been up to. I work with some pretty cool people over all. My two favorite are Justin and Michelle Whitbeck. They're the coolest couple ever! They're way cool and keep me sane. There are alot of weird people around the Modesto parts. Anyway that's all i got for ya peace. Ohh Check out how dark i freakin' am?? i hate it.

and check out this sign.. i rang the doorbell anyway and the guy was pissed!! it was funny. i would write more about that but there was so much swearing involved..
