A collection of Random Thoughts...

1. Driving trips are better when you have a mutual understanding with 1 or 2 other cars that you are racing. And then you all proceed to drive really fast....(not that I do it)
2. For someone who naturally can't sit still and who gets shaky occasionally, knowing how to do the robot really comes in handy (even while just sitting by the pool or in church)
3. Asking a waiter if you can give him a nickname sometimes leads to him telling you his life story...(Shout out to Bart at Iggy's Bar and Grill)
4. Long hair can be fun, but when it gets wet and you look like you have a nasty mullet, its gross.
5. Never ever take a big whiff of a scented candle labeled "Aquamarine." It will burn your nostrils.
6. A lot of guys pack more clothes than a lot of girls I know.
7. When you go on a double blind date with a friend and their answer to what did you think is, "It was fun hanging out with YOU tonight," it goes without saying that there won't be a second date.
8. For some reason, my inner thigh was more prone to sun burn than the rest of my body this past weekend....random

A little thought about nothing

I started this blog with the intent of just jotting down random stuff that comes in to my head. Now that I am not in school, I am not near my computer nearly as much, and consequently many of my random thoughts come and go with no one to share with. This blog was supposed to be just a way for me to vent through words, and if I make a few people laugh, so be it. However, I have noticed that when life gets busy, or especially scholastically busy,  there are longer periods of time in between each post. One thing I have learned from blog-stalking my older siblings' blogs, is that often times the beginning of a post starts with, "I know I haven't written anything in a while." I refuse to do that, because whether I write something every day, or once a month, it doesn't really matter in the long scheme of things. If I force myself to write more often, then I feel like things get rushed, and the blog post isn't as original as I would have otherwise intended. I'm not one to force thoughts, frankly thats just awkward. I fly by the seat of my pants (very weird saying by the way), and can only hope that at some point in my constant rambling, something coherent comes out. But then again, when the person I am writing to is myself, and my mind isn't a very coherent thing anyway, then wouldn't a more randomly and poorly thought out post be more in tune with my audience?

Pet Peeves Volume 1


I'm not much of a complainer...ok, I can be, but whatever. So firstly an anti-shout out to the person who decided that the button fly on men's jeans was a good idea. Lets be honest, one of the biggest perks of being male is that we can use a urinal instead of a stall every time. Its quick and convenient. The button fly removes much of that convenience. I am not trying to be weird about it, but any guy reading this knows exactly what I am talking about and probably secretly agrees.
I did have a second pet peeve to discuss, but right now I can't honestly think of it. I got busy thinking about the button fly and my hatred toward it, and now I completely forgot which one I was going to bring up.
Look forward to more rants about pet peeves in the future.

Hansel! He's so hot right now!

(For my older readers, the title is from a movie called Zoolander. Ask your kids about it) While I was attending the LDS Business College, my little sister and I got asked to be in a photo shoot for their new campus. Being one of two guys there, my pictures ended up being all over the brochures for the campus. Even now my handsome mug can be seen in LDS churches across the nation. Here are a couple of examples:

Since that day, It has really got me thinking about the people I see in other websites. I don't know how to make it happen, but I would love to be the cheesy face you see on hotel websites of someone checking in, or the picture of someone at a business meeting I figure; why not? I already have modeling experience now for a college!!
