Here we go.
So I recommend to everyone to get a laptop. Its awesome.
Speaking of awesome. School is anything but.
Well it can be. But most of the time. Its overwhelming. Its cool though. No complaints.

To everyone in high school. Hold on, the best is yet to come. I don't neccesarilly mean because of college either. Out of high school, you wont have drama if you don't want it. You wont have stupid things happen that happen in spite because your young. You will be independent if you choose to be so. You are your own person and you find out who you are.

If you have religious battles in high school, they will always be there. But out of school, you can really see the world from a new perspective and see what you should be doing. I'm mainly yelling at myself there. I hate standing on the sidelines in this religious battle.

Anyway.Its 2 am. Go to sleep. Go to church. Read your bible. Play your guitar. Drink some kool-aid.

So school is in full swing. Its rather time consuming.

Ive already written a 500 word paper and have read over 30 pages of text and so many notes it makes Algebra 2 look like kindergarten.

Its fun though. You get alot of access to highspeed internet, which in turn Im probably gonna be on here alot, this and facebook.

So Ive been reading this book called 'the gutter'

Ive read alot of books but i can honestly say this one is changing my life. I am actually able to sit back and watch myself change. For the better too.

Im not goin into details though cause well its a personal journey..... for now.

welp new entry here we come.

when i was in high school i really thought my life couldnt get any more normal. My faith went up and down like it does with anyone else. Ive always had friends that were there for me. I have great parents and an awesome brother and sister. I didnt think my life was too exciting.

Now with a chapter behind me, Im excited for the next 5 10 15 years. But not so excited that I waste days away. Im gonna live everyday like Im alive. Not like Im dying.

If you think about it, whenever you say youll do it tomorrow. Its already tomorrow. Tomorrow never gets here. Ive always lived with taking risks but now I have realized my life is not in my hands, but Gods.

People have always told me, 'After high school your friends are all gonna split up' and I would always be the smart one and be like 'no way man' but its true. Not that its a bad thing because it is a fact of life.

The experiences you see in movies or read in books sometimes do happen. You will have friends who one minute you trust with your life and the next you wouldnt trust them with your bicycle because of the knife so deep in your back. You will love so hard that you think nothing will shatter your heart only to figure out the smallest bead of stupidity can shatter it into a million pieces. Most people will rather pick up a TV remote rather than their bibles. It takes less than a split second for you to say something that you immediatly regret and wish wouldve never happened but remember actions will always speak louder than words.

Im not critiscizing because Im in this crowd. Who I am hates who Ive been. Ive made my share of mistakes. I just pray in this new chapter I will be a better person for my Lord.

So I have just been informed it has been 605 days since I join the xanga crowd.

Woopdee doo

So been trying to get as many hours at work as possible. Kinda hard though.

Anywho. So my posse of friends are starting to split up. Its kinda sad.

Actually its pretty depressing. Adam left for bootcamp July 5th. Shane leaves for bootcamp July 20th. Nick leaves like end of August, along with Rudolph.

Leaves The forrestals and me. Looks like Im not goin out past nine for awhile. Inside joke. nevermind.

O well. Im excited about what the future holds where Im gonna go and who Im gonna meet.

Im officially going to OUZ for at least a year. Any other option is to much money that I dont have. My heart is set on going to Liberty after OUZ though. That is my realistic dream. Montana was a out-of-reach dream. Liberty is on my heart hardcore. or should i say, heartcore. ooo burn. sorry. that was lame.

So hows everyones summer going? its like the middle of it and stuff. craziness.

if anyone has started skating or does skate or wants to skate at all. freakin call me. all my friends anymore are like, 'no, im tired, lets eat and watch movies'. Ive seen 40 year old virgin probably 18 times this summer. its funny and all but cmon, seriously.

well im gonna wrap this up cause your probably not even reading this cause well its not my most exciting material so if you are, two points. its all yours, bask in it.

Todays my birthday. Everyone give me a dollar.

just kidding. but seriously.

ok so i cant sum up the past few weeks in a story so i figured id join the crowd and do the cool thing.

60 foot cliffs, caves with bats, brandi, a&w, car crash, big k-mart, KCU, audio adrenaline, skating, Gods grace, dubl'it, dead bryant, water balloons, video challenge, aron cavins sweet stories that bryant loves so much, nunleys ankle, beat boxing, volleyball, guys cabin, nick being pale, hotel swimming pools, everything being more expensive than was initially promised.

hey what can i say. my life is packed to the gills of coolness.

bring it on.

So my monthly update continues.

Got back from rush yesterday. I thank God for that place. It seriously saves lives.

So I still dont know where or what I want to do about college. But hey, its cool. Im taking it day by day.

Seriously that is my new motto to live by, day by day.

Not much to talk about, been working and hanging out. Just living the summer life.

cool ridge isnt as cool as it used to be, so we continue our pool hopping.

well im goin to get a haircut. peace out.

So here we are.

So school is out. Done with. No more high school drama. Or whatever you want to call it.

These past few weeks have been flying by. Graduation is saturday. Crazy.

Its been alot of fun though. I cant lie. Had so many good times its not even funny.

If there was an award for people who most enjoyed their senior year Nick, Shane, Adam and I would defintly win. Lived it to the fullest.

I can honestly look back on high school now and not be disapointed, maybe tried harder in a class or two but whats that matter now?

I know contact with everyone will be impossible to keep but I think besides that, I wont miss anything from highschool.

Which reminds me. My graduation party is June 4th, from 4:00 to question mark.

If you dont know where I live, call my cell phone, 221-6648. Everyone stay safe these couple of weeks.

Sorry this entrys not exciting, Im in mellow mode.
