Ok so I got home today and no one was there. Daisy came to the door to see who was there. She was so pitiable. She has a limp in her leg and a cone around her neck. She doesn't understand that the cone is like and extension of her head and she has to make sure that it doesn't catch. She got stuck on a door frame, a chair, a basket, a table, and a bush all trying to get to the door. Then she came down the stairs and tripped on the collar and slid down the stairs. She looks good for eleven but is falling apart on the inside. It makes me sad.

My brother came home with pictures from ski trip today. All seven of them. The rest were destroyed by the camera place. Why again did we go there to get them developed. Oh ya because its a drive through. Right. Anyway I was hoping that others cameras weren't destroyed. It would be nice to have some pictures from the ski trip. If you had them on CD that would be excellent as well.

I saw Coach Crudip today. Its been months since I have seen him. He was driving by to pick up his daughter who still goes to the school. It wasn't until I saw him that I realized how much I missed him. It reminded me of all the great people in my life that have left recently.

Great Weekend

Ok so after a long awaited trip to the ocean we never went. It turns out that the guy who works there won't let us pull a raft. He says it can be done, so does chris, so do others. So I think it can be done now too. He is going to buy a sea doo. Woot. So instead of going out to the ocean I wasted half a tank of gas driving around hunting chris and kevin with airsoft guns with Leigh and Amanda in the back as shooters. Went driving around at night. Man that was fun. The girls were all freaked out in the car and was keeping my cool. With my desert eagle and my minivan I looked like such a bad ass. Ya 'specially with my binoculars. Anyway sunday night was a blast. Jad's going away forever party was a blast. Spent a good deal of time running around trying to get a DvD that was never used. Paid for $20 worth of gas in quarters. Man playing with Jad last night was just so great. Man am I gonna miss him. Now we have several months possibly without an official youth pastor. Jad was just so awesome. It was a blast to have him. Man what a wonderful world this is.

What the Crap

Ok so Costa Rica trip was all planned out and I was siked for it. Football ran late. By an hour and a half. So i got home at 7. The was a trip meeting at 6 today. I missed that. I call my dad up cause he is out of the house and left the message for the meeting. He is at outback. I ask him to get me food he says fine. i go to pick it up on my way to bible study. I get there he hands me the food and tells me that he won't pay for the trip and doesn't want me going on it. I get to bible study. I tell a few freinds and talk with Alex afterward. He can get me money if I can pitch in. That is something I can do. I do need my parents ok to do so though. I get home and talk to my dad about it. I am calm and collected in my discussion. He says that he won't pay for me to have fun. I tell him I can pay for a part and the church can pay for the rest. He says that going there won't do me and my future family any good. I asked him what good going on the ski trip did for me then. He ignored the question. He says that helping out some people in a third world contry won't be something enjoyable. He then went on to say that I am only focused on having fun and how he won't pay for it. I just looked at him at this point. He started talking about how I'm not focused on my future. He said that I hadn't done anything about colleges. I pointed out that I had spent the past two months working with my college guidance consullar on the aplication for a summer college program and researching other summer colleges. He asked me to name a college I was interested in. I did and explained why it appealed to me. He asked me the cost. It was maybe a few thousand more than what he was already paying for my highschool. He asked about state schools. I told him that the only one that was worth my time was U of F. It was not 70% gay. It was not 90% black. It had the right program and all that jazz. He asked the cost of that. It's less than $3,000. He asked why he should have to pay 20 some thousand for a school for me when he could pay nothing for my other siblings. I told him that basing my futer on the first price for a school I listed was a joke. He said that my lack of focus was a joke. I reminded him of the past two months spent on colleges alone. He said that thinking about this trip right after I got back from the ski trip was a clear sign of my lack of focus. He then related the cost and how he wasn't going to pay for the trip. Somewhere in the next few minutes of screaming I reminded him that he wouldn't have to pay a dime. After realising that this is the man who will pay you full for a job full done but charge you double for stopping half way, I left the room. I then put on something angry and turned up the volume. I then decided to call my mom, in Orlando. she wasn't interested in talking about it. She said that dad was probably right about it. She listed to a few of my reasons but ignored most of them. She told me that she would discuss it when she got back on friday. "The tickets will be purchased on Thursday," I told her. Oh well i guess you missed it was her response. I told her i would call her back on tomorow. So now I have a list of people leaving and have left me this year to add onto not being able to go to Costa Rica. Most recently Jad is leaving. Coach Crudip (my favorite coach) was fired. Mr. Rogers (my favorite teacher) is leaving to Georgia b/c his wife now makes five times as much as he ever did. And lastly Timor died. Suprisingly my grades are higher then ever. When something goes up in life something else is torn down. What a wonderful world this is.

Ok so i'm sitting here after lunch. just got back from eating and seeing the college guidance consular. man college is gona be crazy. anyway i'm excited. why? because friday is the last day of the term. what happens after the term you ask. well its basicaly three weeks without regular classes. on this momentous occasions call interims, i will have absolutly no homework. i have a class that lasts from 8 to 3 which will consist of me learning sax-a-ma-phone. what fun right. my parents already rented one for me. tried it out the other day but i can't get it working. i asked my brother (he took it in 6th grade) how to make it work. he told me my lips were broken and that it would never work. gotta love him for that. anyway after two weeks of sax-a-ma-phone it will be spring break. where am i going. Vegas. uh i mean Colorado woot. Vegas was last year. just kidding. but seriously. ya so snowboarding is gonna be a blast. been exercising like crazy for it and now my knees don't work. joy. anyway i have a presentation next period and then a test. for anyone doing a science project. regardless of what its on bring in food. especialy sweets. make some cookies look like something your working on and all will be good. thats the bell. later

Why Bother?

Ok so after something like a year of not even looking at live journal I'm going to try it again. Forget how to work this so now i get to learn it all over. Sounds like fun.

Problems with starting over again.
1. Forgot password 2:00
2. Forgot how to post 1:25
3. Realized that my page is missing parts and officialy "Sterile" (kinda like chris's room) "Who said that?" 2:45
4. Not having anything anyone would find interisting to talk about. 5:00
5. Makeing a lame and overly used joke that no one would find funny. A timeless clasic.

Ok so anyway if anyone has any ideas for a new lj page...thing....whatever, post or something.

All the good stuff

Oh man it is so good to be home. after a nice long trip in england scotland and france its nice to be back home. weekend went by fast and school still sucks. it was great to see my friends again though. now i'm looking for friends from the trip at school. so sad that i don't get to see some of them in class i.e. nichole, mandy, samantha (not in any order).
was sad i wasn't need for youth on sunday. ryan (drummer) couldn't make it on time so they played an acoustic set. (my dad says to get an acoustic bass)
joey is trying to get to join his band. he says the band wants a bass player. joey said he knew a kid. might be fun. i know Tyler (drummer) can do anything and i heard him playing to korn and slipknot about 4 years ago. he is good and damn good. they want to be hardcore and go heavy. not sure if i can play that but what the hell. they call themselves "shitfaced in public" and they have a song about Lando Calrisian. They got starwars songs so you know i'm in. he's gonna talk to them now.
the praise band might be opening for "supertones" at pompano indoor. that would kick ass.
