Well, these last couple of days have been exciting to say none the lease. Where to start, where to start.......My mom came back home from Hawaii yesterday. I am very jealous that she went, since as all of you may know, I love Hawaii, and I really really miss it. So my mom came back, and brought me back some puka shell necklaces. I admit, I am a girl when it comes to jewlrey. I have a ring that spins (it keeps me entertained for hours), I had a cool Nixon watch (but I lost it), a LiveStrong bracelet, and know I have a really cool puka shell necklace. I love this necklace. It may sound weird, but I swear, I really do. I had this one necklace that I actually got the first time that I was in Hawaii, and earlyer this year it broke. I was heartbroken! Now I got another one and I swear it looks just like my old one. So my new love for my necklace may be the reason why I am such a loser.
Anywho, Turkey Day turned out to be a good day. I had a ton of food, got really fat off of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and apple cider. We had thanksgiving at my sisters place down in Hemet. I must admit, I was a bit hessitant at first, since we always had it at my grandparents house, but due to some current events occuring with my grandpa, we weren't able to have it over there this year. Turkey Day turned out really good though; the food was awesome, the company was good. The only thing that sucked was that the football games that were on yesterday sucked big time. Indy blew out Detriot, and the Dallas/Chicago game just sucked big time. I knew it would, but I still watched it.
Now for my favorite part. Come one, come all, to the little part of this update that I like to call "Story Time". This happened to me last night and today, and I have to admit, it is kinda shocking. I have to give a little backround though before I start. It goes back to this summer.....The best part of it was when I was up in Utah at a church camp. The experience itself was awesome, but there was a certain person there that made this trip to Utah totally worth while. Her name is Jessica. The bad thing, she lives in Central Cali. But this girl has it all. She is gorgous, funny, smart, easy to communicate with, and just awesome. So after the trip to Utah, me and her still kept in contact, and I just found myself really missing her and in a sense falling for her. No joke, I really was falling for her.
So we were still talking via the e-mail and every know and then we would send eachother real letter (scary, I used a stamp and envelope). One day, I wrote her an e-mail and didn't hear back from her. I still missed her and I really wanted to talk to her, but I thought that I would sound desperate or something and she might thing I was a retard (I really am, but still) if I wrote her another e-mail. So I still thought about her all the time, but my feelings started to dwindle. But yesterday, I got an e-mail from her and all the feelings that I had came rushing back. It was a really short e-mail, but they all came rushing back. Oh wait, there's more. Today, I talked to her again via the text message. This girl is awesome! I wish that we lived by eachother, because it would make my life a lot easier, but she doesn't. She is awesome though, and she is all I thought about all day.

So I woke up yesterday morning to one of the greatest sights ever witnessed in this good ol' hick town know as Yucaipa....it was actually snowing here! It was a miracle. No joke, there was white stuff falling out of the sky, and actually sticking onto the ground. I woke up at about 5:45 and just looked out my window to see how bad it rained the night before, and there was this erie glow on the street, and I just thought to myself, "No flippen way, it is snowing outside!" So I went downstairs, looked in my back yard, and sure enough, it was snowing. Me, being a typical guy from Southern Cali, did what anybody from Southern Cali would do.....go out side, with no shoes on, my pajama pants, and a short sleeved shirt, and just stood while it was snowing. It was wonderful, although it was kinda cold. So Yucaipa was in a complete shut down yesterday. The Blvd. was closed, and most importantly, church was canceled! All in all, we got about 6 inches here at my house, and that is quite a bit, and it is said to be the most snow ever to fall here in Yucaipa.
Now some of you may be asking, why the heck did you wake up at 5:45 in the morning? Well, I will tell you. I went to Six Flags yesterday! Yes, I am a bad mormon and I have actually planned on going to Six Flags for the past couple of weeks now. But what can I say? I knew it was going to snow here in Yucaipa, and that church was going to get canceled, and so that is why I was planning to go to Six Flags. But did anybody listen to me? NOOO! Actually I had no idea that is was going to snow, but it was quite a treat.
But yeah, Six Flags was seriously a blast. I got to go on every ride except for "X" which was having "technicle difficulties" and "Deja Vu" because I was too tall to go on it. Think about it, I was too tall to go on it. I didn't figure this out until right at the front of the line, when they had the first sign that says you have to be under 75 inches to ride. I was seriously pissed off. I wanted to go on soo bad, and that was the longest ride that we waited in line for all day long, (30 minutes) and I couldn't go on it. I was pissed.
Six Flags was deffinitly worth it though since I got to go on some of the best rides ever made, and I got to hang out with some really really cool people. There wasn't a lot of people that showed up, like 28 or so, but it was a blast, and I want to go back again really really soon. There was a cheerleading competition going on there with all these little girl cheerleaders, but since they were all tiny, they couldn't go on the good rides, thus the lines were really really short. So while people were here at Yucaipa, playing in the snow for about 2 hours until they got freezing cold, I was at Six Flags all day long, riding rollar coasters. It was a blast!

Jerry Seinfield. That TV show has to be probably the best sitcom ever created. The reason why I feel that it is the best show, is because for the most part it is very, very true. I have probably seen about every single episode, and I for one really am looking forward to the DVD's coming out very soon. You may be asking why the heck is this guy talking about Jerry Seinfield? Well, I am about to tell you all out there how one of the episodes of Seinfield has related to things that have happen to me in my life.
In this episode, Jerry is having a little trouble with a lady. According to Jerry (since I don't agree with him on this), this lady is a full out hottie, but she is seriously the dumbest person that Jerry has ever met. Jerry is able to make out with this lady whenever he really wants to, but he has never had a real conversation with her. All she ever talks about is becoming an actress, and has Jerry help her read lines for this play. So, Jerry is a little bit of a dilema. On one hand, he has a girl who is very willing to make out with him, and yet this girl is a complete idiot. This show goes on and shows a chess game between Jerrys brain, and his "other head". In the end though, Jerry's brain is able to beat the "other head", and Jerry becomes a better person because of it.
The reason why I bring this up is because this same exact thing has happened to me before. How you might ask? Well, gather around for story time. There was this girl who I went out with. I didn't know her really before we went out, and pretty much all I knew was that she liked me, and I thought that she was hott, so I felt that it was worth it. Now after a while, we started to actually kiss. The problem was that the more that I got to know her, the more that I started to realize that she is an idiot! I mean, I honestly couldn't have a an intelligent conversation with this girl if the world was about to end. Unfortunatly for me, this chess game didn't end the way that Jerry's did. I followed my "other head" because I felt that I could change her, and possibly even educate her. Boy was I wrong!
So the moral of the story is......guys, when you are in the situation which both me and Jerry Seinfield have been in, make sure that you follow your brain, and not the "other head". Also girls, help us guys out in making our decisions. Don't kiss us before we know you. Even though we may show that all we want is some action, we really do, but we would much rather have a real conversation with you. Well, I don't know if I could speak for all guys, but that is what I would rather have, because I feel that a good conversation with a lady is awesome, and anything else that happens is just a plus. Welp, see ya later.

Mondays are always a living nightmare. Seriously, think about it, the weekend just ended and now you are forced to go back to school, do crappy work, and then when you get to school you realize that you had a lot of stuff to do over the weekend, and you forgot to. That was the case for me today really. We had a 4 day weekend, and we actually got assigned a bit of work, which is pretty lame if you ask me, but I understand why. So I had to Lab write ups do today for AP Bio, and a chapter to read for Govt. Thank goodness for having a really easy 1st period. Let me tell ya, if anybody out there in "Blogger Land" ever wants a really easy 1st period class, be a counseling office TA. No joke, this is seriously the easiest class ever. For me, it is 90 minutes to do the homework that I didn't do from the night before. Plus, I get to walk around a lot, talk to some people (hopefully some ladies, that is on my lucky days), and we get food for this like once a week. Good class, let me tell ya.
So like I said before, our district was nice to us and gave us a 4 day weekend. It wasn't the best weekend of all time, but it was pretty cool. I got to sleep a ton, and so I am happy. Actually, I think that I got to used to sleeping a ton, since today I wasn't able to have my 12 hours of sleep, because it was Monday, and Mondays suck hard-core, so at times I got a little grumpy. Basketball officially started over the weekend, so I am really excited about that. Our practices are hell though. We do a lot of running, which we need, but I am very tired afterwards.
But yeah, back to the weekend....I have to say that the highlight of it was playing Halo 2, and tha is not saying much since I think that the first Halo is a lot better. In case nobody knows this, I am a game freak. The latest system that I own is a Nintendo 64, but once I actually start playing a game, especially one on X-Box or PS2, it is hard for me to stop. I for one was a huge fan of the first Halo. I loved it! I really wanted to get an X-Box just to play that game (and Fable, but that is a different story). So I was excited about Halo 2 and was hoping it would be better; but it wasn't. I have to admit, Halo 2 had some +'s over the first Halo, but over all as a game, I think that the first one was the best. If you want to hear me go into, come up to me at school or just e-mail me. I'm too tired to explain myself right now. Take care everybody.

Well, I must say that these past couple of days have been pretty interesting. This one kinda goes without saying, but Halo 2 came out yesterday. Wish that I was a cool guy and actually had an X-Box, but yet again, I have proven that I am a loser. I actually have the money to get an X-Box, but I don't really know yet if I want to dish it out and just get it. I'm still in the debating process right now. I just might though since Halo 2 looks dang cool.
Anywho, for those of you who may not have heard this, gather around and listen to the ever famous "Story Time". So, Monday, my good friend Dan and me where just talking about this certain girl, and he says "Yeah, I get to see her next period" and I said "Yeah, I want to have her babies". Me, being the weird guy that I am, think that is a very funny thing to say because 1. I am a guy, and thus it is impossible for me to have babies since I do not have the proper equipment and 2. I'm just weird and think that it is funny. So Dan told the girl, and she pretty much flipped out. Here comes the weird part. The next day, I was talking to her because both me and her are in one of the clubs at school, and we had to take a picture for the yearbook, and she said "Yeah, Dan told me what you said yesterday, and I it was pretty funny." REALLY? This coming the day after 2 very reliable sources told me that it really freaked that crap out of you? I really didn't say that, (hence there was no quotation marks around it) but I was thinking it.
So the moral of the story is.......sorry if I offend any girls who happen to ready my ever famous blog, but girls are very confussing. Us guys are seriously really simple. We are not affraid to tell you how we feel on a certain subject. That is of course if we understand the subject. Here is another example on how girls are confussing. They will talk to a girl at school, say hi, be all nice to her and stuff, and then when they say goodbye, one of them will say "I freakin hate that girl! I just can't stand her!" It happens quite a bit actually. Guys, if we have a problem with another guy, they know about it, and if it comes to it, we will just fight, and then a day later be cool with him again. So again, sorry if I have offended any girls, but that is the way I have seen things happen in my life.

Sorry that it has taken me so long to actually update my little blog here. I have been meaning to, but I don't really get much insight from others who come to my blog. I get one or two comments, and they tend to be from the same two people, who I love very dearly, but frankly I just get sick and tired of them some times. I'm just messin, you know I love you Irish man and my little Asian buddy. But now, for the most part, I will have to give the little update about my life in a nut shell.
This past week has been alright. I swear, I have the biggest case of "Senior-itis" right now. I honestly do not want to be at school after lunch, and that is kinda showing in my 4th period grades. I have a C+ in that class right now, and I completly bombed that last test. As long as I get a B in the class, I will be happy since it is an AP class, and the grade is weighted. I actually convinced my mom to call the office, lie to the people in the office, and let me go home. It was actually really cool since I was able to go to Pizza Chalet for the ever famous lunch buffet. For those of you who may not have had the privledge of going there for the lunch buffet, I highly recomend it. It is way worth the 7 bucks, and if you have a T-Bird card then it is only half the price if you are with somebody else, since it is buy one, get the other free. So the buffet was well worth bailing out on my AP class. I will probably do it again sometime soon.
Other then ditching school, we got our senior t-shirts this week. They are seriously awesome, and they were free. I would have gotten them for free anyways, since after all, I am in student council this year. Not that I'm trying to brag about it or anything. Na but seriously, Student Council is hard. Joel and I have to do all the manual labor, which involves moving all the heavy stuff like the stages, sound system, JBL's, and all that fun stuff. It is well worth it though since I do get free stuff, and on top of that, get to go riding around in the golf cart quite a bit. We like to call that "Joel-riding". The only bad thing is when stupid people get hurt on the golf cart and then blame it on us. We won't get into much detail about that though.
Anywho, onto my so-called love life. I think that I have actually found a girl who, if I wanted to have a girlfriend at this moment in my high school career, try and go after. She would probably turn me down though since I am tall and ugly, but it would be pretty fun. Also, today, I was wearing a really cool beanie that I found in my brothers closet, and I walked into a class with a bunch of Sophmores, and they started laughing at me. I don't care though since my head was really warm, while they were probably freezing. Stupid Sophmores.

Halloween is now officially gone. To me, it honestly didn't even seem like it was Halloween. Usually I have that feeling of a certain holiday, but this year it honestly didn't seem like there was a set feel to Halloween. Maybe it's because I didn't really do a whole lot this year. I mean, I just went to my best friend Marks house on Saturday, since he was having a party. It was really just laid back since that is the type of people that we are. I personally had a good time; just chillen and talkin to some ladies. Well, I was trying to talk to some ladies, but I think they communicated with me out of sympathy. That tends to be happening a lot latley. Kinda depressing actually. Same thing pretty much happened last night. I just hung out with my sis from across the street Ashley, and just handed out candy to the little ones. It was not packed at all in Rolling Hills this year. I think that's because of all the new homes that were built here in good ol' Yucaipa. Again, later on that night, I was trying to communicate with a female. Whether or not this ladie thinks I am a geek, nerd, loser, or all of the above remains to be seen.
Anywho, the election is coming up tomorrow. I for one wish that I was 18 right now so I could actually vote (and so I could actually drive, but that is a different story). For those of you who think that your vote doesn't count; shame on you! It does matter. The Democrats are probably going to get all of California's electoral college votes, but it still matters if you vote. I heard that Cheney is out in Hawaii, since they highly believe that Hawaii will turn Republican this election. Things can change, and even if the Presidential nominees take a state for granted, it may just switch it's vote and go for the other guy. I for one am a moderate and I would probably vote for Bush. Don't get me wrong, I do not like Bush. I don't think that he did a great job as a President, but I for one do not want to see Kerry as our Prez. He just really freaks the living crap out of me. I'm not big into politics (although I should be), so I don't have a ton of facts to back up my rational, but Kerry really does freak me out.
