It's been a while

I forgot about this blog... Maybe I'll write some a little when I'm in the mood. Funny stuff haha.

So really, why not?

I was thinking about how some people will post a video, like "numa numa" or "evolution of dance," and all of the sudden they're famous. Is it luck? Or are they really that funny and talented? 

As kind of an experiment, a friend of mine and I decided we would sell t-shirts with our faces on them. Sort of as a chance to observe the reaction they get, but also because we were bored and feeling conceited one night at 4 am... In theory we have as much of a chance for a hit as any other internet stars did. We just want to find out why, or why not, some people can get so popular overnight. 

Will I wear one of these shirts? Heck yea! They're freakin' great! But I'm more interested to see if you will. (I'm pretty proud of the design too, not gonna lie)

"I'm bored... How about you?"

Christmas is going to be here faster then we're expecting. It can be both exciting and boring at the same time. It's funny how that works, we spend half of the year waiting for it  and all of the sudden it's here, as if nobody saw it coming. And then it's over. School starts back up. Families go home. And we're back to waiting. But life isn't as hopelessly fast as we make it seem, opportunity is all around us, taking it is the hard part.

My Grandpa always said "If you're bored, it's your own fault." He was right. 

Let's face it, we have all the time in the world.

As for me, I have a whole list of things I would love to do this break. Nothing huge, just fun things. Besides, NinjaWeen was probably enough for morristown from me for this year. I want to take some friends to Dollywood, have a movie night, maybe even just a good old burrito party! But time is not the limiting factor in the equation, I am. I could wait all month for a trip to Dollywood and it might happen, but probably not. Or I can start planning now and have fifteen people coming by Saturday! 

What I'm saying is, if you're bored, fix it. If you're just waiting for one of your friends to have a Christmas party stop reading my blog,  get off your butt, and go plan one. Have fun, make memories, don't just sleep through another month without school. You have several days before Christmas, don't let it catch you off guard.

Now if you'll excuse me, my friends are getting out of school, I'm going to go do something.

Noodle Directions

How long is a blog supposed to be? Oh well... 

I was making some kind of noodles for lunch today and one of the directions said "optional."

That frustrated me. Does that mean it's absolutely mandatory that you follow the other directions? If I don't bring the water to a boil before I put the noodles in am I going to hurt somebody? I don't think so. When it comes down to it you don't have to do anything that stupid package says. The automatic assumption that you are planning on eating the noodles is the only bases the noodle people have in directing you with what to do with them.

In reality, the back of the package should say something more like "directions: optional"

Don't tell me about time management...

So here I am on my iPod. It's Monday and it's the first day I've had any personal time since after school last Tuesday. This week is the perfect example of why I sometimes don't get enough homework done throughout the week and end up with a lot to do that Monday. What bugs me is when people say stuff like "if you weren't so lazy you could get it done early on in the week," or my personal favorite; "you'd feel a lot better if you would get it done earlier." Really?!? Why havn't I thought of that?!?

So long story short, the reason I was busy all week/weekend is that I was working. And long story short again, yes, I tried very hard to get some time off for school. I've worked every day Wednesday through Sunday. Three of those days I worked twelve hour shifts (the only reason I didn't Wednesday and Sunday is because my boss let's me have time off for church). And two of those days I didn't get to go home until one in the morning because we had midnight shows of some chickflick with vampires (I will unconditionally hate that movie forever). I litteraly went home, went to bed, woke up and went to work.

Some of you may have noticed I havnt even been keeping up with my facebook, muchless the rest of my life. But it shouldn't happen again because we're finaly hireing more people. And my next paycheck should be able to buy me a house if I want to. So apart from a week of homework to do today everythings good. Just do two things for me, don't tell me about managing my time better, and boycott the movie "twilight." It's retarded anyway, I promise.

And before I go I want to say thanks for the encouragement and understanding some of you have offered me (you know who you are), it's helped more than you know. So I'll be more then glad to return the favor, or we can go see a movie as long as it's not twilight. I need to spend some time with my friends anyway...

Oh, as a side note, somebody told me that I looked like John Stossel last week. That made my freakin day!

So thanks everyone, and keep reading my blog 'cause I promise it's only gonna get more interesting from here on out.

Kthxbai,

This is my blog, there are many like it, but this one is mine.

Well, here goes nothing. 

Ladies and gentlemen this is my first ever blog. I'm doing ok so far right? I'll give you a little background info so you can keep up with me here. Of course I'll fill you in as necessary in the future but I'll give you some tips that'll be nice to know for now.

I work at the movie theater, I play guitar, I attend Manley baptist church, I can't spell, and I love gadgets. Ok, we're off to a good start. I'm not that great at managing my time, and I'm working on the same problem with money... 

I love being with friends more than anything. I can't resist throwing in a funny movie quote at appropriate times, and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.

So there's a little about me. And a shot in the dark at my personality. It sounds vague but don't worry, as time goes on and I post more up here you'll get to see where I'm coming from a little better. One thing I'm pretty good at is comparing a story with past experiences. Just so you understand how relevant it is.

One more thing I want to fill you in on is my iPod. I have an iPod touch and it's the best $400 dollars I could have spent. It can do anything your mp3 player can do and more. As a matter of fact, the majority of posts I publish on here will be typed out on my iPod.

I passionately believe that the iPod touch is the best digital media/connectivity device available today, and if you try to prove me otherwise, you will be shot down. 

Ok so there's what you should know before I start ranting about all kinds of random crap that will usually relate to something an uneducated person said that made me mad... 

That was a run-on sentence, but I don't care.

So I hope you enjoy this blog. Maybe it'll at least be somewhat entertaining, if not enlightening. I'll keep it clean so don't worry about content, just sit back and listen to me deal with people. 

And I'm out.
