MLK Jr. Day

So today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day, no school was a nice gift he gave us. Any who I'm pretty much exhausted from sleeping on couches all weekend over Fellini's house. Although his new couch was okay i still prefer my bed any day. So today i decided to start a new film series, and its going to be an on going one - I call it "Me Right Now" which follows after Blake Witmans blog he posted on Vimeo asking us to post a video about what were doing right then. I Liked the idea so much I plan to incorporate it into my future so today i uploaded 2 videos to Facebook, "Me Right Now: January 1st, 2009" and "Me Right Now: January 18th, 2009" The first ones about when i was in missouri with my puppies, and the second one was sunday with dan power sliding in the church parking lot. I plan to purchase Vimeo Plus so i can upload all my videos to one place and plus i love the HD part!!

So i have school tomorrow I'm so going to bed, - Night!

Weekly?

So apparently i suck at keeping up with a daily blog. so I'm going to try to do a weekly one, 52 sounds a lot easier then 364.

This week was pretty simple in fact it was very stress free. Well accept sunday and monday where i attended a funeral for one of our students. Jack Crosby which died of a heart attack during Kick Boxing last wednesday. It really touched me when Master Garcia presented him with an America's Best Defense Black Belt with his name on it. But after monday the week went back to normal with school, work, and etc. Although my positions and jobs are shifting around which is slightly scary but I'm liking the changes. So now i assist in running the pro-shop at ABD which i seem to enjoy, i like dealing with people and being helpful so filling orders and answering questions seems to be an okay job for me - i hope it works out there. At MAFE this was our first real week of business and even though we didn't receive any orders i have a feeling we will next week. Yesterday (Friday) I released a new Films Website which i like the look a lot better then the old one. (www.MRevFilms.com) also I took Sarah out to dinner and had a pretty much awesome time - I always have a good time when I'm with her.

But now I have a meeting to go to at 1:15PM at Living Waters to go over film stuff and help chris out with a video he's making. After I'm hanging out with fellini and possibly sleeping over his house. And i hope we'll be able to hang out with Sarah and Liz and them later on tonight also.

Well see.

365

You know today wasn't that bad, a tad bit on the boring side but it was still pretty awesome, i guess the saying a day is only what you make it is kinda true. I definitely made my day a better day because i choose too. It took me a very long time for me to fall asleep last night and i just don;t know why, maybe it was the hum of my laptop i left it running to download some footage i forgot to download, but when i woke up this morning i forgot to turn off my auto turn off so i have to re download it all. which I'm currently doing as i type this - good news only 2 hours 11 minutes and 15 seconds left! Oh and I'm listening to coldplay pretty much my heros when it comes to relieving stress! After school today i had a driving lesson and i had Ron, i haven't had him since my first ever lesson he's a pretty awesome guy if i do say so myself. After driving around with him for two hours anyone would be ready for a nap. gah I'm wicked tired. Anyway i took on the task of creative a 365 film. a 365 film well at least the one i choose to do is to take one profile photo of myself every single day for the next year, only 360 days left. After i take a photo every single day i will edit them together creating a shutter film of myself changing over the year! i think it will be kinda neat.

I'm bored, I'm gonna see what there's to eat in this house.

Back on Track

It sure has been awhile, but I'm back - well at least for now. I'm going to try my best to be dedicated to my blog but i still doubt anyone is really that interested in my life to follow it.

Life Recap,
Christmas was pretty good i got to see my sister which i haven't seen in a very long time and all my little cousins that i see like 4 times a year. Christmas Dinner was fantastic as always. I mainly just got some money for christmas nothing real to special although one of my christmas gifts was an IPhone 3G which i absolutely love!

On Saturday December 27th, i left for Missouri to visit my dad (I actually made a video about it and its on my Vimeo Acount) on Jan 3rd, i came home. It was a pretty good trip kinda low key but i needed just some nice relaxing time. Seeing my Dad was good i miss seeing him i really just want to get to know him better but I'm not sure how to go about that.

When i got home from Missouri last night the first thing i wanted to do was see sarah - So she came over and we hung out which was nice i really missed her while i was away.

And now today - i pretty much just sat around and did nothing. Fellini came over and we just pretty much hung out and talked about Paintball Team stuff.

Tomorrow i go back to school - Ick.

Been Awhile

Okay - its been forever since i updated this and between work and both 2 new things I've taken on as responsibilities this blog hit the back burner. Work has been very busy i was informed yesterday i have 10 orders to fulfill and thats super exciting since we haven't even released the whole website yet! I've also started helping out at my church "Living Waters" I will be doing the Post production of the services, and I'm also involved with setting it up correctly since i am the only one with professional experience in this field. Although i do have to say its tough to work with someone who has no experience. Someone who reads something is different from someone who's experienced something. But only god knows and he will lead us in the right direction. I am very excited to be making DVDs for them though.

And finally I've been very interested in this girl and she's pretty much the best thing thats happened to me since sliced bread :) I could go on and on for hours about how amazing i think she is - but I'll save you the reading. I'm very excited to hang out with her saturday!

Another good one

Today was just incredible - they say when you are closer to god, life gets better in all ways and i now now for a fact it is true. I've haven't been praying to him every night but i have been thankful and i think he knows that - Every opportunity i get i will say thanks, like yesterday at the show in the middle of my performing i said thanks. A lot of things in my life are going perfectly and i know its thanks to him. He wanted me to become closer to him and the only way to do that was to shake up my life - and I'm glad he did. I am really finding a path to something amazing and i cant wait to find out where it leads to - maybe it will lead directly to god himself. I've been very discrete on details on this topic and I'm not ready just yet to reveal it all. So all I'm going to say is - She's Amazing. But today I had work at 8am-11am where i ran the front counter at ABD, after work I hung out with Fellini and headed up to burton to check out some snowboard gear. I found boots, board, and bindings, for just $420.00 which is an incredible deal. I also found out i might be getting the IPhone for christmas which is even more exciting! I hope everything goes to plan - and darn i still can't figure out what gift i should give someone...


BUTTTT
"Thank you god, for everything you have given me, I am where i am today because of you, and without your love i would not be who i am today, I hope one day i can repay you with but a fraction of what you have given me."

Simply Amazing

Today was the day of the ever so stressful Black Belt Extravaganza Show and my job was to make the video and sound of my videos work through independent speakers on my side of the auditorium. But lets do some background first, School was pretty boring just normal classes really - except in Science where i fell asleep due to talking to Miss Sarah last night until 12:30AM (so worth it though) So Karate Came and at 3PM i had a meeting with Master Garcia about the show and how it would be ran - 2 and a half hours later I'm at the North High School trying to make everything work desperately! But in the end the show ran perfectly minus a few mistakes but thats okay we now know better for next time. After the graduation, Sarah, Liz, Matt, Fellini and I went out for dinner to Piccadilly Pub. The Ride there was pretty funny trying to fit 5 people into a 4 person car - Sarah Ended up on my lap and Fellini ended up in the front seat (haha) At Piccadilly it was pretty awesome, Sarah Sat next to me with Fellini to my right and opposite Sarah and I sat Liz and Matt. Dinner was definitely an experience although every day with Liz is an Experience unfortunately she didn't feel good so i look forward to next time when she'll be in full health. Matt and Liz ordered the same dish while Sarah and I Split a basket of Chicken Fingers and Fries - For some reason i wasn't that hungry must have been nerves. After Dinner Sarah wanted a piece of Peanut Butter Pie/cake and Matt and Fellini got some kind of brownie thinger - After Desert the tap came to a little over 70$ so i allowed Fellini and Matt to chip in 10$ each and i fit the rest of the bill including the tip, Plus the waitress was funny and i give her credit for putting up with us so late so i gave her a 25% tip. Sarahs Parents were waiting for her outside so i got an amazing hug and walked her to her car to properly introduce myself - which of corse i had to re-explain why i would let Sarah Pay which they attempted to give me money which i of corse refused. Shook both there hands and they went on there way. We waiting with Liz and her Mom while we waited for Matts dad to come get him and after Liz's mom drove us home. An awesome end to an incredible day!!
