Hey guys and gals, sorry about the long delay of not updating. It's been one event after another. I can never seem to find the time anymore to update this thing as I'd like to. Well as most of you know, I just got back from Senior Trip this past Sunday, and what a blast it was indeed. Much fun was to be had during Senior Trip, many memories to hold on to. In a few days I hope to post a link to my pictures that I took during the trip. I figured that be pretty cool to do. Well let's see, what's coming up next month, other than graduation of course, that is the most awesome thing ever....oh wait....EPISODE III!!! That's right folks, it's that time again, except this time will be the last time....(tears shed). If anyone is interested, I am taking preorders for tickets up until some time next week, and i need 7.50 for those attending. The preshow includes Episodes 1 and 2 on the roof of the band hall, followed by the main event Episode III, and for the after party we are returning to the band hall for the rest of the saga. This will go down in history I promise you! Don't miss out on this one time event! Well, for those wondering who that beautiful girl is in the picture, it's my girlfriend Shelby. We've been dating now for about 2.5 months and still going strong. This may be the longest relationship I've had yet. She is the most awesome person to be around, when we get the chance, which is the unfortunate thing. As some of you may know, we live quite a distance away from each other. She lives in Tennessee and of course I live here. I believe that is a little under 7.5 hours away from each other. But the phone works miracles. It's what brought us together, that and two good friends, Adam and Beth. Without these two nuts I wouldn't have found her. Well guys, I'm going to head out here, i've got to get rest, due to my stupid sinus sickness mess.(don't really know what it is) Ya'll take care, and talk to you all soon.

Well....Long Time No Speak...

Hey guys, good lord it's been a while since i've updated this thing. So much has happened in the last little while.

Here's the list as it stands:
1.My parents have gotten a divorce (to all those not in the know...)
2.I have my own business (EZ Computing)
3.I stay too busy with everyday events to even remember anything
4.For those that went to Disney with me Freshman year, I had it again recently.
5.I'm going to college....Duh!, but seriously, I'm going to Perk with pretty much everything paid, and I'm rooming with Jason Bolstad (aka, The Wookie).
6.I now have a girlfriend, who by my standards is very beautiful, we have just about everything in common, she's very easy to talk to, and we're going to Prom together. (Thanks to Gibbs and Beth)
7.Even though my family is split I somehow kept my sanity through it all, and actually my closeness with my brother has grown 10-fold. And I still love them both. (My Parents that is)

Guys I promise to post as often as I can, and I also promise to get back to being the friend ya'll remember me to be. Thanks to all those who stood by me through what I called the "Dark Times", I'm truly forever indebted to all for that. Oh and by the way, FYI here, Star Wars Episode III Revenge of the Sith comes out in approximately 91 Days 22 Hours and 25 Minutes. Ya'll talk back now ye'hear!

Long time no speak.....

Man, it's been quite awhile since my last entry. Accordingly, a lot has happend since then too. Lots of ups and downs. One of my closest uncles passed away about a week and a half ago, and man that was traumatizing, but on the otherside of the coin, it was quite pleasant. I know that sounds completely strange but, it was kind of like a small family reunion of sorts. It's just such a shame that it those types of things have to occur around two things, weddings and funerals.
On a brighter side, I've seen Anchorman, and let me tell ya, it truly wasn't one of Will Ferrel's best. While it was funny in some parts, it just was really dumb, and almost retarded in others. I've still gotta see King Arthur, and a couple others that came out a couple of weeks ago. I've heard that I, Robot was awesome as I knew it would be, given that i've read the book, and also that Will Smith seemed to fit the role pretty well. I don't quite know what to make of Catwoman yet. Though I know that nothing will ever compare to what the wonder of what Catwoman was in Batman Returns, I hope it treats the source material well enough.
Band Camp has finally commenced. I'm completely ready for this type of change. Something to get my mind together. It's been completely crazy doing the same things week after week, it's good to do something different. I love the music selection this year, the Mask of Zorro. Man the show is going to be awesome. Hard but awesome. I hope our leadership holds together, because i've heard rumblings that some people disagree with some of the selections of leaders. But that's another story.
So much to do in so little time, and so little money. I think i've counted not one, not two, but THREE trips this year. Trip one is to see the London Symphony Orchestra perform in Atlanta which is going to be awesome. Trip two is Senior Trip to Disney, great times. And lastly, the New York trip with the Band, which is still tentative.

Hopefully, I'll be able to update more often. Til' then. Adios.

Spider-Man 2

2004-07-02T06:02:52Z

Through the grace of the internet and an awesome friend, I was able to see Spider-Man 2 opening night. Wow, words cannot describe exactly how awesome this movie is. Most people would agree that it is one of the best comic movies ever made. This ranks right up there next to Batman in my opinion. The storytelling capabilities of the director are simply outstanding. He weaves a tale that blends, action, love, and sometimes separation of friends into a one 2 and half hour movie. I'm going to have to see it more than once in the theater i'm afraid. But the catch is, finding an theater where it is not sold out.

As most of you can tell, this is my first entry into the world of LJ. Through the many efforts of many close friends, I finally agreed to get into this thing. It's pretty cool. Thanks guys, you know who you are!

I have to work tomorrow. If ya'll get this, come see me up at Cici's Pizza, if you don't know where it's located, it's in the Edgewater Village across from the mall. I usually work the night shift, so ya'll can come anytime after 4:30.

Alright that's enough for tonight. Ya'll talk back.
