U2 WAS AMAZING! :] Oh, And The Rest of My Week.
Oct 22nd
So, I haven’t blogged in awhile…sorry
Well, so…
Saturday: Did some last minute packing for Oklahoma trip…ate, talked on the phone some…then around 5pm we headed out…many songs and silliness-ness later…we arrived in Ada, OK where my sister Amber lives at about 7:30pm’ish?
We unpacked the musical gear from the truck…then headed to Blue Moon Cafe…which, is where this was taken of Jessie ![]()
Then we headed to the church to practice…Josh, Jessie, Amber, Michael (her husband), and I played for my sister’s church on sunday morning ;]
After about 2hrs we were done learning about 6 songs…most of which were new to Amber and Michael…and 1 was new to us all except Josh, who wrote it…and writes most of what we play…we being The Joshua Band aka. Josh, Jessie, Chris(who couldn’t come) and I…
And jeez…my hands we’re literally about to bleed and we’re blistered…and ripped in 3 places…because they have their drums in a box thing…so you have to beat the heck out of them to get dynamics ![]()
After that we headed to Michael’s dad Mickey’s house, and unpacked…that is where we slept ![]()
And I talked to my Madison till about 4:30am that night…long story…..and to you Madison…thank you, and I believe and accept it now…hopefully over time I’ll learn to trust in it more and make use to it like you have my love….
Sunday: Woke up about 9am…got ready, and headed to Life Community Church to play :]
After church, we headed to Rib Crib (delllicious :]), and this is where I took a pic of my hands seen here…this picture doesnt do them justice to how bad it was sadly ![]()
after that we went back to Pastor Mickey’s house and changed…then around 4pm we headed over to Amber’s house…then at around 4:30pm we headed out to Norman, OK….To see U2
![]()
got there, got inside, found our seats…and at around 7pm Black Eyed Peas started…They were good…but dude with the mo-hawk cannot sing worth a crap live…but My Humps, Boom Boom Pow, I Gotta Feeling, and Big Girls Don’t Cry was still awesome live though :] Will-i-am and Fergie are still awesome sounding live :]
Then at around 8:45pm U2 started :] EEE!:D…..and LORD GOD JESUS…I had a Concertgasm
Like seriously…it’s gonna be hard to enjoy any other concert now…I mean think about it…I’ve seen the best one in every way…so now everything else will fall short in all but prob one or two areas hah. Vids here. Pics here or here
Then after the amazing show (we got out at about 12:20am) we drove home…got home around 2am because of the crazy traffic…and headed to bed.
Monday: didn’t wake up till around 1pm haha…then we woke up, went to Amber’s house for a bit….went and ate at Braum’s…then went back to the church loaded up our gear, then went to Amber’s house again…and chilled there till around 3:20pm when we headed out…
Got home at around 5:20pm…then I talked on the phone till around 1am. and went to bed.
Tuesday: What did I do tuesday? not alot haha…Talked on the phone, worked on random Gfx, uploaded U2 videos and pictures…and oh, stayed up till 5am fixing the church’s pc…I fixed it at around 10pm…it was a bad PSU…and I happened to have a spare one from eariler…and fixed it…then I got anything off of it we could use (Dad bought it from another church that was shutting down, and selling off their stuff for $100)…
Then reformatted it, and installed a fresh new install of Windows XP – Vortex 3G RED Edition, then loaded it with software we need like MediaShout, WinDVD, K-Lite Codec Pack…etc and other software you need really like Auslogics BoostSpeed, CCleaner, Filezilla…etc ![]()
After doing all that, upgrades, fixing random stuff like missing audio and ethernet drivers, and cleaning off un-needed hardware…it was around 5am
Wednesday: Today? not alot…talked on the phone with Madison alot, done homework, messed with stuff on the pc, talked on the phone some more…chatted with some old friends I haven’t in a long while on Facebook (Hi Sparky!
), and then started this.
So that has been my weekend /week. :]
Church…Oh, and Tacos!
Mar 11th
So, today was pretty blan up till 5pm when I played drums at church…we had practice from 5-630′ish….and it went decently well…I screwed up 2 of the songs majorly over and over haha…but it overall had a decent sound I’d say…not as professional as I like…but hopefully Ill learn these songs a bit better as time passes….hopefully hah.
then around 7pm we started…first song went good, second went well despite my messing up the beginning and forgetting to stop once pretty much…then the third song…well eh…it just sounded weird on my part hah…but song 4….ah, I love it no matter how its played…you know it as “Everything” by Lifehouse…I kinda came in odd but it blended ok…and hah…in the middle of the chorus the second time my stick broke
so yeah, that was fun…
but I loved after that me and Corey (acoustic guitar player) started playing just us after “Everything” ended and we ended up making a new song pretty much…I love flowing…I get so drawn into it…I sounds odd I know, but I almost feel as if I’m becoming one with music when I am…like me and music is making love per-say hahaha…I really don’t know how to explain it…besides I just really get into the music then…
then after that Chris (the youth pastor) gave his message while we all sat around him, and as always it was clear and informative (if you want to know what he talked about you’ll just have to come and see for yourself! hah)…and afterwards we all went to the awesome artery clogging Taco Bell…and chilled there…then I went home and started blogging…
so yeah I cant tell you anymore after that without starting a endless loop…ad that would be good…It’d make the world explode or something…no…I’m serious…it would…
And…I did it again…
Mar 10th
Sorry all, I really have had a hectic time…well so where to begin.
ah, well got all my PC junk in…and everything works like charm
I’ve played Dead Space, Left 4 Dead, Half life 2: Episode 2, Portal, and many more on high-res and high detail without any skipping or quality loss
woo!
hmm, oh…and Hattie my girlfriend had to have foot surgery this last Thursday…it went well but shes in alot of pain off and on between the pain meds lol…
oh, and yeah! now I’m the main drummer on Wednesday nights at First Assembly of God in Denton...unfortunately their pastor resigned 2 Sundays ago and his son happened to be their drummer…so yeah, I cant on Sunday cause I have to at my church…but now I do every Wednesday for them
so that’s fun and interesting for me…completely different feel then my main church’s worship team and songs…so it makes me stretch my boundaries I guess…
hmm, and DEAR LORD JESUS I watched the Watchmen(lol) or WIKI…and dude I loved it! there is only one main difference from the original comic that I noticed plot wise anyway, was Rorschach’s story of when he “became Rorschach completely, and no longer Walter Kovacs being Rorschach” was alot more gruesome…
and beware…you get to see Dr. Manhattan‘s blue shiny thingy(aka his freakin Penis) way too much, and you also get to see a awkwardly long sex scene in the Watchmen’s aircraft with the song “Hallelujah” written by Leonard Cohen (you’ll remember it was on Shrek by John Cale
)..but despite those things I’d give it a solid 85 out of 100 for sure…definitely worth watching once…maybe not for buying on DVD (least if you have kiddos who can find it haha)
well hmm, that’s about it for anything out of the ordinary since I’ve last blogged sadly
Holy Crap! Its been a week since Ive blogged!
Feb 23rd
Wow, this week has been busier and faster then I freakin thought….
Well…what have you missed? hmm….not much….well least out of the ordinary…
First off I guess I’ll state that I have successfully Installed Mac Leopard 10.5.6 on my Dell AMD Pc lol…a sentence full of words that apple thinks should never be together….Mac AMD and PC haha…this is what I used iPC OSx86 Universal 10.5.6 with of coarse help from the likes of InsanelyMac and OSx86 Scene…yay having a Mac and Windows dual booting!
hmm…what else has happened this week? yeah….its been that kinda week I told you haha…oh! I sold my first set of Drums!
lol….I used to Have black Pulse drums I got from Musicians Friend for christmas 4years ago…even though Ive only been playing 2yrs 1mo lol….these were my babehs…this is my current set though DDrum Diablo Punx with White on White hardware <3 …also from MF
so what else…what else…Im forgetting something…well while Im remembering…Thought I’d say I love my Hattie and have enjoied any time I have got to spend with her ths week
<3
hmm…yeah….for now Im blank of what Ive done this last week haha…oh and class was actually decent today…I was awake enough to actually understand what he was teaching me haha…
Church, Computers, Push, and Algebra 2…
Feb 16th
oops, I forgot to blog the last few days didn’t I?
haha…
Well…hmm Sunday morning was church…that was good and I like always had fun playing the Drums
Then after that I went over to my oldest brother Brandon’s house to work on building his new computer…and that was a nightmare…ehh…his motherboard was old and was a freakin’ IDE board…when most now are SATA or even now E-SATA apparently…and we didn’t know that till we opened it up…we were going to move it to a new case, 2gb of RAM, add a DVD burner, and a 320gb HDD…yeah, none of them worked…case was too small (that freakin motherboard was way bigger then it should be), and the HDD and DVD burner was SATA
even the RAM which we made sure online would work fine with it…didn’t work
…want to know why in 4 letters?….DELL…This just adds to the list why I hate computers from major companies…especially Dell…they make it so proprietary you cant upgrade crap…its stupid…they want you to have to buy a new one from them, not just keep a older one updated I guess
then yeah, went home around 5:40pm and left shortly after for church…Me and by other bro Josh went to my girlfriend Hattie’s church…first time for josh…3rd for me…on Sunday night anywho…and that was good…and Josh seemed to like it there…and I got to see the love of my life
*muah*
then after church Me and Josh went and watched Push with his friends from another church (its kinda funny Hattie goes to First Assembly of God in Denton…Josh’s friends go to First Assembly of God in Krum haha)…
anyway, that was a awesome movie despite hearing it was lame…to the people who called it lame….you…my friends…are lame hah. It was awesome, Ill say it did have a few cheesy parts…but the fights and just story made up for those parts by far…definitely worth watching again and buying on DVD when its out I’d say for sure
eh, then after we got out of that (it was around 12:10am) we went home and crashed…
haha, oh, and yeah…I have Algebra class every Monday morning, but yeah, dad decided he apparently didn’t wanna go…so yeah…I missed class cause of his not wanting to
and after that stupidity I’ve been up to a whole lot of nothing except texting my friends
oh, and Me and Josh might go bowling later (woo)…
so yeah, that concludes this weekend and weekday I guess…hah…
Bowling, Hattie, and Traveling…
Feb 14th
So, today wasn’t quite so bland…least for me hah.
First I went to bowling this morning as I do every Friday morning (I’m in a league…geeky no?), and I GOT TO SEE MY HATTIE
I haven’t seen her in a week…last time I seen her was last Friday morning
So that made my day right there…so I bowled..and did horrible hah…i have a 120 avg and i bowled 84,92, and 89 = Bad…ehh…
Anywho, after that was over I kissed my love goodbye until Saturday Night when I go to her house for Valentines Day
(woo!)…and headed home.
Then I was bored and did absolutely nothing till’ 6pm when mom and dad were going to leave me home alone and head to Ada, OK for the day to see my sis…but I knew I would just get bored outta my mind…so I decided to go ahead and tagged along…
Had decent fun, we went to a awesome Chinese restaurant there called Oscar, then headed to this gourmet chocolate place (it starts with a B…all I remember) then headed to her church where I was bored outta my mind for about 3hrs…then we headed home…where I slept in the car till 8:40l 8:40
English: World English Bible - WEB
40 It happened, when Jesus returned, that the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.
WP-Bible pluginpm had came and I called Hattie to talk to her for 20 mins she was allowed
then we got home about 9:12pm and I jumped on the pc and watched the newest episode of The Office I missed on hulu.com (nbc.com doesn’t seem to wanna load for me so I watch The Office and Fringe on hulu)
then yeah since then I have been surfin’ hulu watching random clips then I watched Revenge of the Pink Pather (Wiki) on hulu (best movie btw)…they have the whole freaking movie on there
and now I’m blogging…not such a exciting day…but better then some this boring week…hah…I wanna be watching Friday the 13th though…I’m a horror junkie…especially since its made after the amazing 80′s flicks
Driving Lesson, Flammable, and bleh
Feb 11th
So, today started off for me at 12pm hah. And it started off with me waking up to eat a burger and fries from the king of grease, yes, McDonald’s…So I did that, and then did my school (well most
) then I was about to get on and work on a site (and possibly my first wordpress theme
) when dad said come outside.
So I did, and yeah, he made me drive around the block and pull into a driveway and back, then back the other side of the street and back to our house, fun fun…I did ok he said, but I know i kept hitting the accelerator too much lol. I’m workin’ on it! haha (in case you don’t know, I currently only have a permit
so I’m in the process of learning how to drive before i get my real license in April (woo woo).
Then yeah, we went to the library while he got the cars oil changed across the street. and I found a book of facts, and a CSS + XHTML book i got, oh, and they had the very first Pink Panther movie…one of the old good ones I talked about…
Then we headed home after the car was finished and headed to Wal-Mart to get groceries….exciting day so far no? and yeah got all that stuff and I got part of Hattie’s Valentines gift
I’m making her a card I’m gonna print (one of the benefits of being a Graphics Designer lol)
And then we headed by Circuit City since their going outta business i wanted to check their prices on some stuff…and yeah, even with the discounts its still high hah…so i left there and we went to the Dollar Tree where mom found a few things, and I had a strange urge to buy silly string? So I did…Blue at that
Then yeah, headed home unloaded groceries then headed back to Denton to go to church, where i had fin with friends despite Hattie not getting to come
i did get to talk to her for about 10min though, but that was to tell me she wasn’t coming
but, that makes it a week without seeing her for sure now
I miss you so much baby! *muah*.
But I still had some fun with friends, heard some good music and a awesome message from Chris like always *wink*
Oh, and on the way home dad randomly pulled over and said “get out” and i was confused…yeah, he made me drive from there to home
haha.
And that concludes my day, well besides texting Aaryn, Callie, Banana, and Lyssa…they keep me alive and going texting me
On Tuesdays boredom ensues…
Feb 10th
Well, I’m able to at least post here and there right now thankfully, so lets talk…alright first off i miss Hattie like no other…I haven’t seen my love since last Friday and talked to her since last Saturday
so I miss you baby *muah*
next off, anyone seen Taken (or Wiki here)? AHH! Love it! lol…He gets dad of the year award from me haha…its basically about a ex-CIA operative who’s daughter is kidnapped….poor kidnappers…hah…Many a mans death is ensured with this…I’m not gonna ruin it for those that haven’t seen it, by my fav parts have to be when he electrocuting someone in a chair, and the last person he kills (i wont say who or why cause it would give away a part of the movie)…Go watch it now!
oh, also this last week we went and watched The Pink Panther 2 (or Wiki here), It was good, and really funny at parts, but no one can top Peter Sellers in the Original Pink Panther Movies, He was the King of French Mimicking Comedy haha.
oh, and yeah, so apparently the church site needs changed so I’m working on a brand new one that My Dad (who’s the Pastor) and Joseph Weaver, and bluh. So far everything they want is either crappy or tacky…meh…why did i ever tell my Dad I can build sites
