BLOGGAGE

Oh I almost forgot to write my blog this week for school. That would be such a disaster. I think I would crap my pants. I might just do that as celebration anyways. Celebrate what you ask? Celebrate me remembering to do this blog yo.

Last Saturday I took a concealed firearms class. So soon I will be able to carry around a pistol with me. The funny thing is that I just got accepted to BYU Hawaii. My permit won’t work there so if I go then this class was a waste of money. On the bright side, it lasts five years and then I just have to send in a form to get it renewed without taking the class again. So I guess it wasn’t a complete waste.

Tomorrow we are going to go to Cabela’s to look at guns anyway. Maybe if I have time I’ll even go grab my sniper rifle at my bro’s storage shed and go target practicing. Well, I think that’s it for my boring weekly blog. Time to do homework or something.

Bored again.

This has been a boring week. I spent Monday doing homework and trying to learn how to play the guitar. Then Tuesday and Wednesday were too busy days in a row. Lucky for me, work was slow so I had a chance to get my accounting homework done at work. It was due by 10:30 PM and I work till 11:00 PM, so I was really risking it by planning on doing the homework during that time, but I didn’t really have much of a choice.

I plan on going paintballing with my roommates this Saturday. I still need to find out where to rent paintballing stuff and buy good but inexpensive paintballs and CO2. I have my own gear so it’s really my roommates and other friends who are going to need to get that stuff. I already know of a place in the middle of nowhere that is good in the summer. I hope it is good in the winter as well.

Well, I’m still at work and need to go get some done.

Snowboarding

First off I would like to point out that I didn't give anyone a "coke." I had a root beer sitting in my car for like a week, and then I put it someone, but wasn't sure where. I saw a bum on the road and thought, "Hey, I want to give that guy my root beer for my class assignment." Turns out the root beer wasn't in my car anymore. Dang!




This Friday I went snowboarding and nearly killed myself. I let some skier friends talk me into taking a jump that was way too big for me. I learned that when you think you are about to die, or get seriously injured, you life doesn't flash before your eyes. Either that or I had nothing important to flash back to me. I just remember flying through the air for an extended period of time (in my mind at least). I must have fallen seven or eight feet before landing on my butt at high speeds. I tried to roll it to my back to absorb some of the fall, but it still hurt real badly. I'm going to be sore for a while, but I have to admit, I've had worse snowboarding. Why do I keep going snowboarding; I guess I'm just crazy.



Well, at least I got a good view when I accidentally went on a double black diamond (Yeah, like a cliff with moguls on it).

Bonfire

Oh, something else I forgot to mention. On Friday night, my roommate and I decided to had a bonfire that we set up. We invited people who invited other people. So there were quite a few of us. Everyone followed me to a spot I know about by Utah Lake. I also had all the pallets for burning (yeah I know thats not exactly legal). When we got there, the lake wasn't completely frozen over and covered in snow--something I wasn't expecting.
There were people camped out with tents set on the lake. So we decided to build our bonfire about 50 feet out on the lake. Yeah it sounds like a bad idea, but we did it anyway. Surprisingly the bonfire hardly melted the ice at all; I guess that was because it was so cold outside. Some of us decided to walk farther out onto the lake. We walked about a football field distance out onto the lake. Then some fog rolled in to where we couldn't see well. It was a little freaky being on a perfectly flat, white ground and thick fog, and then see people appear out of the fog right in front of you. We were able to find our way back because we could still see the bonfire.
So everything went well. The ice didn't ever break, we got to experience some fun stuff, and the sheriff that came didn't do anything to us for burning pallets. He only told us not to burn pallets and clean it up when we were done. We never cleaned it up. I'm okay with it sinking into the lake when the ice melts in the summer. Utah Lake is the nastiest lake I've ever seen anyway, so I don't care much. Probably only alien, or severely deformed fishes could live in there I bet, lol.

I would have taken pictures but my battery was dead.

Lotion

So, today something funny and annoying happened. I use a lotion that uses a screw-on top. It’s the type where you have to put your fingers in to get it out, rather than just squirting it out. One of my roommates has a similar one, but keeps it in a different place. Anyway, last semester someone used his lotion, and he got mad and wrote “do not touch, keep out” all over the jar. A week later mine got used by someone else. I could tell because the person had dug his hand way deep into the lotion. I was annoyed because that is disgusting, so I wrote all over mine as well and hid it under the sink.
This week someone used my lotion again anyway; whoever it was even dug his hands way in again. I was pretty annoyed and so I asked all my roommates about it. All my roommates denied doing it. So now I’m just annoyed that one of my roommates is downright lying to me. The fact that they choose to lie to me over a little lotion makes me wonder how much I can trust this roommate, whoever it may be.
