So lately I have been spending a lot of time at my parent's rental house. The renter's left the place quite a mess with trash, holes in walls, damaged valves, leaks, dead trees, grass, etc... The place needs a lot of work. Anyways, so I have been

This week I noticed that I received my first international visitors to my blog. It makes me wonder how they found my blog, but I am happy they stopped by and hope they were at least mildly entertained. Here are the countries that swung by this week:Hong

Well this week has been busy. It doesn't seem like I should be as busy as I am but here I sit behind on things. Saturday I worked and then saw a late movie (11:50 p.m. start time) with a co-worker. We saw "Yes Man," with Jim Carrey which was pretty

So as many of you know, I have a 3rd job as 2 jobs and going to school full time just left me with too much free time, hahaAnyway, so we have a big box in the front full of toys for the "Toys for Tots" drive. Well I guess the other night some guy thought

So I took my art final this morning and completely bombed the test. What sucks is I studied hard for it and knew the information, but just not how to identify the "isms" and pieces of art which was instrumental in being able to answer the questions

Sunday was quite the busy day for me. I had some work to do in the morning, so I was up early around 6a.m. Then later I had to head to downtown L.A. for an awards ceremony that the Midnight Mission was putting together to thank some of their donors

Sunday I had some time and I figured it would be good to go for a mountain bike ride. Although you re not supposed to ride alone, I figured its not that bad of a ride so why not!?!?. Anyways, I went riding in Cleveland National Forest and man did

So I recentlytook some family portraits of the Abila family. I had beautiful light to work with and equally beautiful people and personalities as well. They told me that they had not had any family portraits done since their oldest son was a baby so

Man this week has been going by pretty quick! Well Tuesday night, my soccer team payed our first playoff game, and we won! Anyway so now we advance to the quarter finals next week.School is going ok, I suppose. I bombed my Geology Test last week and

Well obviously Halloween was on Friday. Feeling a bit lazy and the feeling that I really should stay home and study looming over me I made a decision. On one hand I thought, "How often do I get a friday night off?" and maybe a night out would be good

So Monday while I was at school reading through my emails I got ma message from my friend Ian. He was my best friend when I was a kid. For years we hung out, played soccer, went to boy scouts, camped, went on double dates, etc...Well after High School

Ok,So it's more than a day later, but I guess that's how it goes. I can't believe it's already Thursday practically. So Ill sum the trip up from the start...Friday morning, I got my Starbucks and headed for school to hop on our charter bus to take

Well I am back from my trip. I got back earlier this afternoon around 4:30. I was pretty tired, so it's nice to be back home, but I had a great time. I did not bring my SLR, but I did charge up my handy point and shoot and got some snapshots. I will

Someday I will look back at today and more specifically this blog and laugh. Well at least I hope so. Today has been rough, and I hate to mention negative things or be negative in general because I am typically a pretty happy/smiley person. But here

Friday started with my niece Aeralyn waking me up around 730 A.M. She is such a funny little girl, she makes me crack up. She is still young enough that she slurs a lot of words that come out of her mouth and she tries to tie words into sentences.

So last night I went and played (outdoor) Soccer. I have been playing fairly regularly for the last few months, but it has been indoor Soccer. Anyway, it was nice playing outdoor as the pace is much different than indoor. I also ran into a few people

So lately I feel like I have had a hard time keeping up with the days. School is pretty much at mid-terms already and is in full swing. It seems all I do is study. I am so happy to be back in school though, despite the age difference amongst most

Unfortunately, I dont feel like it and I certainly dont consider myself gifted...I've been a bit tired and not getting enough sleep lately. I can feel the difference in how I feel and also my lack of wanting to study. I am finding it hard to concentrate

Hey all...Well this weekend I was in Beautiful San Diego. Its been a while since I've been down there and it reminded me of how much I like it. Its such great quick getaway that rewards you with good weather, great people and lots of things to do.
