OMGITSBEENSOLONG.
So, in short?
Had amazing times with Madison which I’d love to go into detail about each one…but I will say we are growing closer than before… we might have our moments… but when it comes down to it… I love that woman whole-heartedly and endlessly, and cannot wait to marry her :] I love you Madison. Time, trials, and tribulations might come our way… But I’m in this for the long run… and that is not ever changing, my love.
Anyway, had an amazing concert in a school cafeteria with The Joshua Band…ahhh…it felt so nice to play somewhere like that and have such an amazing show, word, and altar call (over 50 kids got saved/rededicated).
I have rekindled my love for tinkering (soldering to fix stuff, build stuff, or change stuff…messing with pcs, building pcs..etc)…and in doing so I have made it once again harder to choose my career path
I have began to make/already made new close friends…and I know they’ll prob be life friends…and realized some that I lost…that I wish I didn’t. And I will continue to miss them until I rekindle or close that relationship that I severed.
I still don’t have a job.
I am getting near graduation…May 22nd!
I am still–if not more–insane/crazy/random.
I really don’t know what else that there is to say of importance atm… prob will have forgotten something big and have to make a new one…but oh well haha.
Hatred ever kills, love never dies; such is the vast difference between the two.
What is obtained by love is retained for all time. What is obtained by hatred proves
a burden in reality for it increases hatred. – Ghandi
Christmas Recap
Dec 27th
So. It’s been awhile no?
Sorry, really…sorry…
First off on the list of things…I GOT TO SPEND A EARLY CHRISTMAS WITH MADISON FOR 3 DAYS! ![]()
We got to spend 3 full days at her Grana’s house from the 20th-22nd of December :] and they really made me feel like family <3
Got a bunch of nifty stuffies from Madison, her mom Kristi, her bro Parker, and her Grana and Granpa…so overall an amazing week :]
Then I got to spend christmas day with my family, that including Brandon, Sarah, Amber, Michael, Josh, and Aaryn as well :] Almost didn’t get to due to the ice (well Amber & Michael anyway…they like in Ada,OK
)
Also got alot of stuffies from all of them, and just had a fun time spending quality time with my family :]
Well…I know its a really bland recap, but I thought I’d let you in on my Christmas events ![]()
Hmm…I guess to fill the dead air I’ll add some pics!
Later my bloggettes!
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. :]
Little late…but it’s for a reason.
Oct 16th
Hello all, and sorry its so late…well for me making this anyway hah (currently 3:24am CST)
Well first off, went to classes, and they went well :] got to talk to some classmates, who are new friends I’m slowing making (hopefully) haha…
Had to sit in traffic for 1 1/2hrs though on the way home…there was a nasty 4 car wreck on Lake Lewisville bridge
fun, no?
Then I got home, talked to my love, Madison (sorry, you’re still feeling sick dear
), and checked my email….and you know what I had in the inbox?
– time for infomercial!
It was a PayPal notification of payment from Pickydomains.com, whom I joined as a contributor recently, and within the first day I had someone pick one of my suggestions for a domain. :]
So check it out if you want! It’s legit, fast, and easy to make a quick buck ($25 per picked domain) if your creative making a domain name (and well after you check to make sure its not taken that is…I use GoDaddy.com domain search to do so) :]
– end infomercial
and yeah, rest of day was mostly spent on the phone with Madison….up until around 7pm when my sissy Amber, who lives in Oklahoma got here! :] Then we ate supper, watched Fringe(I
it), and then around 10pm Madisono called me back…and that’s all I did…up till 12:10l 12:10
English: World English Bible - WEB
10 Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
WP-Bible pluginam….that’s when we got a call from Sarah, my sis-in-law, that Brandon my oldest bro was sick, and couldn’t hold anything down, so he was constantly puking
So, we went over to their house to watch their kids, while she took him to the emergency room…and we did so, all of us, except Josh…and we was there up till about 2:40am…when they got back…apparently Brandon has Influenza…not Swine Flu…but still bad Influenza
Then we headed home, grabbed some hot chocolate and goodies at RaceTrac in Denton…then I got on here and started blogging :]
Fun day, eh?
Practice makes…decent?
Oct 10th
Well, my day started out late…I woke up at 12:30pm
Anyway, I pretty much chilled at home and talked to my Madison all day up till around 5:30pm when I showered, then left for my church, in Denton. When we(Dad, Mom, Hailey[niece], and I) got to the church, I talked to everyone who was there for awhile. Then Cody came to my church about 6:40pm, and we left to go to Grace Fellowship to practice a song he wrote…
Oh, btw I’m now basically part of 3 bands: My church’s worship team, The Joshua Band, and now Cody’s band which has yet to be named :]
Anyway, we got there and UGH…I had to use the electronic drums already there for this week…and Lord God Jesus…I forget how much they suck…mehh. But I managed to get through the practice decently, despite having no real dynamics (which caused me to blister my hands horribly because out of habit I play harder to sound louder.), but we got it basically down in the 1hr of practice we had…so that’s good I guess :]
OH! OH! OH! I almost forgot to say!…….Hi. :]
School, Naps, and Cleaning…
Feb 26th
Today was…mediocre i guess ill say lol, All I practically did was school, nap, downloaded some stuff, played some wii, and then had to clean the offices again at 630 pm…
yeah, I just told my day in one paragraph….awesome…hah…
oh, and last night was fun, after church josh came in to pick me up and me and some othe guys there got into a intense game of 4square…with only the 4 of us constantly playing haha…then it somehow turned into game like hacky-sac….with the ball (its like one you’d use for dodge ball)…haha…and by the end we were all huffing, puffing, and sweating lol…can you say ” out of shape and un-sportsman like athletics”?
then yeah, we went to Subway with the whole group from church that night pretty much…and it was a blast and we talked about everything and anything till about 11pm when some of the kiddos had to get home…then Me, Josh, and our friend and bassist Garett went to Hastings….just for it to be closed at 11pm haha…12am on friday and saturday only josh…you forget…so yeah then we headed to wal-mart…and I bought a 50 pack of Sony DVD-R’s…woo…and hung out and did some pretty random stuff till about 12:20am’ish…then Garett needed to get back home…so we dropped him off to his car (he rode with us to subway and on) and headed home…
see isnt that sad…I just explained only a same amount of time 9pm-1am…and it took longe then explaining my day today
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…
Cleaning Cubicles Sucks…
Feb 13th
So, today was quite boring…I woke up read my daily letter from Hattie (none-ya) and did school and texted people like Alyssa, Josh, and Joseph…and that was it
until about 6pm anyway…
Then, the fun really began *cough* sarcasm *cough*…I had to leave about 6:30PM to help mom and dad clean offices
apparently over this week they have picked up a side-job of cleaning a whole office alone 2 days a week….and apparently its too much for just them so i got recruited….yeah fun right?
and wow….wasn’t too bad till we hit the cubicles…I felt like I walked into a strip of the comic Dilbert…seriously…wow…then about 8 we finished up and left.
after we got home at 8:30′ish I called Hattie since she is no longer grounded from the phone (yay!)
and talked to her till she had to get off at 9PM
but I’m still happy I got to talk to her
*muah* love you baby…
then I continued to text everyone till it was down to just alyssa (yay having sleepless friends to join in my sleeplessness
) and I got on my Photoshop and made Hattie’s Valentines Card…came out nice i think. you?
of coarse it’s pretty simple….but i was trying to be minimal considering my printer is low on color and b&w ink haha. and for those that dont know…you always stick the front on the right and the back on the left….otherwise your card will open backwards lol. I learned this many-a-year ago…
and yeah, pretty much after that Ive been doing nothing…so Ill quit blogging my bland life hah.
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
but hey, Fringe (Wiki) is on and I’m missing it! so goodbye bloggers
