Happy day after Turkey Day! Well, today was a happy day, but yesterday for the most part, sucked. Our Thanksgiving meal was made from the cafeteria cooks, and lets just say that you could tell it was a cafeteria thanksgiving. Also, my fam left yesterday, after spending a week here with me in beautiful Hawaii, and I was a little sad about it. It's weird since this was the longest that I have been away from home, away from good ol' hick town Yucaipa. In a sense, it is a good thing, but these past three months have been hard and I missed the fam a lot. It was awesome to see them though, and I know that they had just as much fun as I had. Man, three months have gone by and the first semester of college is almost over. I'm pretty stoaked about that. I have quite a bit of work that I need to get done, but it's truely amazing how fast this all has gone by. I don't even feel like it was enough time for me to learn all the stuff that I did learn. Hopefully that made a little sense...
Anywho, not a whole lot has happened this past week. Like I said, my fam was here, and I posted some pics of them on my flickr page, so feel free to go and check those out. Today though was a good day. I got to sleep in until like 11 which was awesome. We then went on a hike to a place called Sacred Falls which was just awesome. I was freaked out though because it's illegal to go on the hike, and if you get caught, you will be arrested. So while we were actually at the falls, a helicopter was flying around and saw us, so I was flipped that we were going to jail. Luckily, the cops weren't at the bottom waiting for us, and I am not in jail. Well, unless you want to call BYUH jail. Just messin, it's awesome here. Well, that's about it from my end. Hope everybody had a good thanksgiving and I will be home in about three weeks. I'M STOAKED! Late

Aloha to everybody out there in blogger land! It's been a pretty busy week so I am sorry that I haven't posted for a little while. Things out here in Hawaii are going pretty good. Classes suck, but I guess that happens when you hit college. Seriously, who would have thought that college would actually consist of doing a lot of work? I honestly didn't think so. Boy was I wrong! The good thing is that I am currently getting a B in my physical science class, which is the one class that I was really really worried about. I have A's in my other classes so it looks like that this semester will turn out alright. I have already signed up for my classes for winter semester. I'll have a great schedule next year with my classes in the morning so I can go play in the afternoon! It should be awesome.
In other news, my family comes out on thursday, so I am really looking forward to that. It's weird to think that I have been away from them for 3 months now. This is the longest that I have ever been away from the fam, and it's kinda sad. Thank goodness for cell phones! The bad thing is that I won't be able to have a cell phone when I go on my mission. I'll be able to survive though since I will be having the time of my life. Speaking of missions, B-Randon Jensen got his call the other day. He will be surving in Monterey Mexico. That a baby Brandon! I'm stoaked for ya man. I also finished the book that I was talking about in my previous post. It was seriously amazing! Robert Jordan is just amazing. He just better finish the next book soon, hopefully before I go on my mission so I will know what happens! Well, that's pretty much it from my end. Hope that everything is going well back on the mainland. Peace out.

Time now for another long awaited up date. I still haven't found my board, so that sucks. Other then my board getting jacked this week has been alright. On friday me and the crew hit up a couple of parties. There was this one called "Jungle Boogie" that was outside and we had to take a little hike to actually get there. It was alright, could have been better if more people showed up. Some of the music kinda sucked too but we made the most out of it. Then we went to this one at what's known as the State House. That one pretty much sucked since it was flippen hot in there and it was very crowded. The only good thing was that there were Otter Pops and soda. It's soda, not pop! Some of the people out here are trying to get me to say pop; stupid Utahards. Sorry, a little off topic. But anywho, the parties are really lame out here and I have no idea why I keep going to them. Yes, I know, I'm dumb. Also on saturday the ladies at my work took me out to eat at this Japanese buffet in Mililani and it was soo flippen good. I love seafood and they is all they had there. I have to admit though, I was a little scared when we first got there because there were a lot of really really big people there and I thought that they were going to eat all of the food. In fact, I thought that they were going to eat me! Luckily, I am still alive and well.
In other news, I purchased a book the other day. It is Book 11 in The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan. It's called Knife of Dreams. I have not put this book down seriously all week long. I love it and I am almost done with it (about 200 pages left). I am truely a fantasy geek, and I am dang proud of it. I highly recomend all the books in the series to anybody. Jordan has truely come to dominate the world that Tolkien created. There is only one more book to be published and I just hope that Jordan doesn't die before then. Welp, that is all from my end. Peace out.

So it was probably the worst day ever today. I wake up to it just pooring rain which isn't really new since after all I am in Hawaii. Then I grab my longboard and head off to my religion class which is at the Stake Center here on campus. I leave my board outside in my secret hidding spot since we can't take our boards into the Stake Center. After class is over with, I go back outside to grab my board, only to realize that my board is no longer there. What the flip! How the hell would take somebody else's longboard here at BYUH? Worse, who would take one that is right outside the Stake Center? I'm not one to judge other people, but they are going to hell unless I get my board back. So I was really pissed off and wanted to find the person and beat the living crap out of them. I still feel this way too. That's 160 bucks right down the drain! On top of my board getting jacked, it rained all day so we couldn't shoot in my archery class. What the garbage! I really need something to do so I can release all my anger and frustration. That's it from my end. I am out.
