Fly Eagles Fly!

Donovan McNabb is the man! 1 win away from the Super Bowl!

How much longer do I gotta do this? haha

Well, winter semester started on Wednesday. I drove back Sunday and only almost died once, so it was a pretty good trip overall haha. The roads were really icy but once I got into Idaho the roads got a little better.

This semester should be an interesting one. I'm taking a bunch of classes for my Sports and Exercise Science minor. And I'm writing for the school paper again, but it has changed since the last time I wrote for them, and they are kind of ticking me off already, if they aren't careful, I'll leave them and work for I-News instead. So they better watch it haha.

Other than school starting, not a whole lot is going on. NFL playoffs, NBA regular season, that's pretty much it. Well, tonight I'm going to a concert at a new venue here in Rexburg that my friends Brad and Leif opened up, the Locus. It's gonna be a metal concert, so I don't know how that's gonna go over here in Rexburg haha. I'm going because there's a band from back home that's played with my cousin's band and my brother's band, Picture it in Ruins, is playing so I'm gonna go support a local band from back home. And another band that's playing tonight has played with my bro and cousin's bands will be playing as well, Dethrone the Sovereign. So yeah, tonight will be interesting haha.

I'm sure I'll have more to say later, but the only other thing I have left to say is, GO EAGLES!!!!!! haha

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

Well....

I figure I should update this because I have nothing else to do. I was trying to hold off as long as I could but I figure it's time.

It's been hard for our family to get into the holiday spirit with the passing of my brothers close friend. I got home from college the day of the funeral and found about 15 teenagers at my house spending time together after the funeral. It's hard to get happy about Christmas when someone you know really well and spent a lot of time with is gone. I've been sending a decent amount of pictures from my cell phone to facebook lately and every time I do, I see Garrick's name right next to facebook's. I'm never going to delete his number out of my contact list. Out of all my brother's friends, Garrick was the one that I texted the most, mainly to get ahold of Jake before he got a cell phone. But sometimes we would just text each other to make fun of Jake haha, he was a funny kid. It is tough, it's been almost two weeks since he passed, but it's hard to get over. Life will never be the same for my family, mainly my little brother. Plans that they had together are no longer a possiblity, it's just really sad.

We put up the Christmas tree on Sunday and put lights up on the house on Monday, it has helped a little bit, but it still feels like something is missing. 

Gonna Miss Ya Garrick

This morning I woke up to my phone buzzing saying I got a new text. It wasn't good news. It was my mom letting me know that my little brother's really good friend had passed away last night due to an asthma attack. My brother and my cousin and another friend of theirs stayed at the hospital with Garrick's family until 2 in the morning. It's so sad :( My brother Jake and Garrick have been friends forever and they had been double's partners in tennis the past 4 years in high school. I've spent a lot of time in my life around Garrick and he was a good kid, was funny and very friendly. I can't believe it happened, I feel so bad for my brother and Garrick's family, no one saw it coming. Garrick will be missed greatly.

Love ya buddy

Geeze Louis

I can't believe it, this week is almost over!!!! After Thanksgiving, we had 2 weeks of school left and Mon-Wed just went by really fast!!!! I can't wait for this semester to get over with though. I signed up for classes late so most of the classes I wanted to take were filled so I had to sign up for a few stupid classes. Next  semester I'm actually taking classes I want to take. 

You should be proud of me though, I'm finally going to pass the class that has been my kryptonite for the past 4 semesters haha, Intro to Communications. It is a required 1 credit class that is only available at 7am on Thursdays, and I've failed it the last 4 times I've taken it haha. It is just dumb and should be worth more than 1 credit with all the stuff we have to do outside of class. But I'm finally going to pass it, so I'm excited haha. 

Christmas break is gonna rock though, gonna be home for like a month haha, I'm gonna be so lazy haha. The place I interned with this summer said they could use me during the break though, I don't know if I should do it though. I had no social life this summer, and I don't want that do happen to me during Christmas break. We'll see what happens.

Hmmmmm, I don't know of anything else to say, just hopefully I survive the next 6 school days haha

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!!!
