first off, i'd like to thank my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for my mom and her "finding" abilities. after an entire summer of missing my right z1 chaco, i broke down and asked my mom if she had seen it (and also showed her what it looked like). my mom has a knack for finding things i'm looking for in places i've looked many times before. maybe i just suck at looking for things. either way, i'm very appreciative of her gift. then on top of that, i asked her if she had seen my nalgene bottle, she looked under the cabinets (like i had already done) and found it. simply amazing. so i cooked dinner. i was very grateful.

i'm gonna go to bed now because i've lost track of time and i'm retarded.

one last thing, i've come to realize that with jesse it's more than just "i love her", it's "i need her".

i'm back home now after a relatively lovely weekend of sitting around with jesse. I can feel the time being taken away from us. It's like every hour is more important than the last. I'll definitely be spending the majority of the weekend with her, but i hope to get some stilltime in with everyone else too. i hope everyone can come to my house this weekend. it should be pretty fun.

I gave jess her pop-up tent and manatee necklace this weekend. i think she really liked them. the necklace turned out to look pretty nice.

still dont know whats going on with my car. i dont think the brake lights work, so i probably shouldnt drive at night much.

leanne called yesterday to prove to scott seaton that i was still in town (some argument they were having), so i returned her call today. i was talking to her (actually not so much "talking" as "listening") when she asked if she could call me right back. that was at 1.0 pm and i havent hear back from her yet (and i doubt i will). how can anyone have such a short attention span that they forget to call someone back . . . EVERY TIME.

i have a lot of packing and planning to do this week.

(enter last week home)

so i'm back at school now and my car wont work. what the crap? i cant get it to shift into gears. it wont acknowledge that i'm pressing the brakes. so i am currently parked between the library and glocker. dang, it.

and jesse is being a jerk right now. in her new pop up tent. i hope she stops soon.

yeah saturday.



okay she's better now.

well i havent gotten much done today. HOWEVER, my watch came in! CASIO RULES. they got it back to me in freakin no time. i guess it took 2 weeks. I was REALLY hoping it'd get back in before i left. AND jesse's surprise came in. i hope she likes it. It's kind of silly. oh well.

going to the wilson county fair tonight. fair rides are kind of scary. i havent been in a while.

man, i'm on a pinneapple and bacon pizza craze lately. it's feels like youre eating lighter and quasi healthier. and it tastes great. thank you jess for bringing it BACK into my life. :)

i ordered my trogdor and cubic*cube shirt today. i can't wait. the people from hungary said they wear a lot of dark colors so i should fit in great.

Did i mention that there is NO HUMIDITY in hungary!? That's so freakin awesome. I told jon murphy that and he said the people will think i'm a god because i dont sweat. I told him he was probably right. (just kidding God)

i hope todd fits in at military school. sounds a bit uncomfortable there.

pizza time.

i love you, jesse.



so much.

::well i just wrote this and it got erased so here we go again . . . dang it::

So i just read hayley's blog regarding our camping trip. I cant believe she had such a bad time. SHE had a leaky tent?? a SCREEN DOOR would've been more water proof than the tent me, jess, and scholes used. and this just in: I'M AN EAGLE SCOUT TOO! not only that, but i freakin' fixed the food . . . in the RAIN. (thanks to scott and scholes for helping with that) And you know, it's really not even that i had a bad time because i had lots of fun. it's that hayley's complaining about having to do NOTHING.

ridiculous.

i'm tellin' you i get no respect.

I'm up at school now sitting in scholes' and dobbs' living room with my laptop watching X games. This is awesome.

I just finished talking with a couple from Hungary. Actually, a man and his wife from Hungary. What a great help they were. I feel so much better about everything. Feelin' good.

Said "bye" to Todd this morning. I hope this path works out the best for him. Despite all the crap Todd and I give each other, I love him like a brother. It's always somewhat difficult to talk to him about something serious because I can't always tell how seriously he's taking it. I'm sure it's more than i think. good luck, todd.

Had a decent drive up to ktown with the folks. (i just cant stress how awesome this sitting here doing all my computer "work" in front of the tv.) I had to urinate like a race horse TWICE on the way here! I guess I drank more water at todd's than i thought.

I'm gonna run out to CompUSA later to find a power converter for my Hungarian vacation. and maybe a ordless mouse.

I wanna make comments available for my blog. I'm gonna try that now.

I personally thought the camping trip went well. Sure, we had a little rain, but at least it held off till we went to sleep. Unfortunately, we didn’t get much sleep. At all. Scholes’ tent from the 20s didn’t hold up too well under watery conditions. Only, replace “too well” with “at all”. But no one was to blame. We needed another multi person tent, so we used it. He didn’t know any better. He other tent held up well, but apparently they didn’t sleep well either. Not quite sure why. Anyway, jesse, scholes, and I went to jesse’s house around 3.5 am because we just couldn’t take it anymore. I talked to the other tent and they said they were fine, but they called me at 5.5 am for us to come get them. So we did and I think most of us slept till 1 or 2. I felt like crap all day.

So I have this friend who has trouble making it to events. The pattern is as follows: “oh yeah, definitely count me in”, then “I’m not sure if I can stay the whole time, but I’ll definitely stop by for a while”, and then the two possible endings of “I’m really gonna try and stop by, but I’m not positive I can” or “I don’t think I’m gonna make it. I was up late / I’m really tired / I killed someone (or something like that) and just wont be able to make it. Sorry. Tell everyone I said ‘hi’”. I have to wonder how far in life someone can go without keeping commitments. I really don’t understand. I mean, this is nothing new, so I’m hardly troubled by it. But how do you go through your years with friends and not hold true to your word so often? Why does this person even bother to say they’ll make it? I’m baffled. I mean, I think this friend is a good person and in the past I’ve thoroughly enjoyed their company, but I guess those times are over and have been over for longer than I’ve thought.

New day. I was just watching “say anything” and saw that he plays the song “in your eyes” on the boombox. I didn’t know that. Now I’m watching the part where they’re on the plane. I’m gonna be doing that soon. I feel like I’m running out of time (and obviously I am). I feel like I don’t have nearly enough time with jesse. Right now I don’t know how I’m going to make it 4 months without the girl I love. I really don’t.

I hope we're ready for this.

(oh yeah, and i got joshhunter.com. so it'll be up pretty soon. so cool.)

i think i'm gonna buy joshhunter.com. it's only $10 a YEAR. what a deal.

I ate chicken lasagna today (which i'm sure a certain someone would have loved). Then i drove a new Nissan Maxima. Awesome. so freakin fast. and comfortable. a great drive. then i went and played piano at scotts. i'm glad i spent time practicing. It sucks being somewhere with a piano and only knowing one song from memory, now i have like 5 or so. I rule.

We get to go camping tomorrow!! i cant wait. It'll be kind of sad though because it's that last time i'll see some of these people till next year almost. However, i am going up to UT this saturady or so to spend a few days with everyone. I concur with scott, the first few carefree days before school starts are without a doubt the best. I guess after that i'll come home and start preparing. (and yes i'm still nervous) I still gotta get a place to stay in Amsterdam.

okay this computer is wiggin out, so i'm off.

peace out

i have a blogger shirt.

booyah.


oh yeah and today was my last day of work. . . for a while.
