Not your typical cookie cut kid



So while at a church school, I have realized I am not the cookie cut mormon kid that seems to dwell here. Most of the people that I meet here have grown up in the church, know the scriptures, have served a mission or are dating a return missionary. I am a convert who has done drugs, involved himself in sexual acts, gotten so drunk he has fallen off his face, burnt down a park, been arrested several times, has a good knowledge of his right for they have been read to him so many times and have been to hardcore concerts. Most of the people I meet here cringe at the sound of cursing or screamo music (its sad not being able to listen to Dace Gavin Dace openly) and will openly tell me that it is "offensive to them". So pretty much, I am missing home more and more every day. Especially since I heard Polo got a cone put on his head because he keeps licking his paw for some reason and now, as consequence of the cone being on his head, can not open the door but instead just sits and whimpers because he can't get out. 

In other news, I have gotten bored and started putting together a portfolio. So far it only has about 16 photos but I would like to get it up to 50 photos. But oh well. I have all summer to get that number up and I have alot of opportunities to do so.

Two days in a row


(old photo but I like it)

So I was reading through all my old blogs today and then I found that I used to write so much more on each post than I have been lately. So here is a reminiscent post.

5 songs I've been loving
1:No Cars Go- The Arcade Fire
2: Pretty much the entire Black Sheep Boy albums from Okkervil River
3: The Prize Figher- The Velvet Teens
4: Song For Clay- Bloc Party
5:  Chia-Like, I Shall Grow- Say Anything

So I honestly don't have anything to report except for the fact that I am really busy and SUPPER excited to come home and see everyone. I am reminded of the album title "All of a Sudden, I miss everyone" by Explosions in the Sky. Also, my music is being used for a slide show in my Photography class! Woot!

titles are a bit over rated I must say



So I really hate going to my writing class. Its really boring, mainly due to the fact that all we do is talk about random things and get off track. And I hate my photo class right now. It has been raining for about three weeks straight and there is no difference in lighting and I need to do a montage for my photo class. Enough venting. So other than my classes things have been going great, nothing really to report that is too exciting but hey, its still something to post. I just wanted to post a picture.

Sailor soup


Well, since at college I have very little money to buy the food in which I would desire. I don't have everything anymore. Its not fun. Whats even worse is that I can not make my creation that has become known as 'Sailor Soup'. Here is a short bio for this creation of yummy-ness.

Origin: 186 Walnut st. Woodland, CA 95695 at about 5 PM during early December 2008.

History: Once while I was sick I had a large desire and burning in my stomach for vegetable soup. But Judy was not home to make it at the time so I had to attempt to make it. I started out with 2 cans of sliced tomatoes, 2 cubes of vegetable boyan with enough water to boil a chopped zucchini, half an onion, carrots and some other things which I can not remember. As it boiled, I added various pastas and seasonings. As it cooled down and was acceptable to eat, I did. It was orgasmically tasty.

I then started to make it with other ingredients but still revolved it around the onions, pasta and tomatoes. As it progressed, I started to make it later and later, even when it was about 11 PM I would start to make it for the drunken people in the house at the time. They loved it. As nights came and pass the demand for the soup that was more highly addicting than the drugs and alcohol which were passed around and consumed outside. One night the statement was made by Billy that "We are all like sailors, and you are the chef who just throws s*%t in a pot and makes it taste good. Dude, its like 'Sailor Soup'. DUDE! It is f*%&$#g Sailor Soup!" The name stayed.

Sailor soup is one of the most coveted things to ever go into the house. When finished, the pot is dry with in 10 minutes after the announcement. But as I left for college, so did the knowledge of how to make the soup. As to this day, it has been over 2 months since anyone has made Sailor Soup. I decided to try to create a new recipe for the food that is needed for Sailor Soup. But the necessary atmosphere is far from present. What else is need is as fallows.

1: Hookah
2: More than one musician partaking of the food
3: Conversation
4: Random guitar 'noodling'
5: Laughing
6: Middle of the night (the most important part to make the soup itself properly)
(optional)
Loud girls laughing

The new attempt at sailor soup has failed due to the lack of all but one need for the right environment to enjoy Sailor Soup. To properly make sailor soup you must be trained by a master 'Sailor Chef'. You must be willing to devote your life to know and hold the secrets of Sailor Soup. To know the knowledge is to be fully faithful to the soup and ingredients. I am, at the moment, the only person in this world who knows all the secrets of the soup. This knowledge was given to me through serious prayer and fasting for the knowledge for the worlds greatest soup. It has been given. Sailor Soup will be made again once I return home. Do not fret Billy. You will have your fix soon enough.

May god protect your souls after reading this. The fact I'm uttering these words through a blog may in fact curse the soup. I have not been commanded to tell any of the necessities for the soup. But nor have I been told not to. What I have given to you should be held as high as the words of the wisest man to ever walk this earth.

Random pictures for the lack of posts


I really haven't been posting any pictures that much lately or even taking that many so I thought I would have some fun today and take a picture of my window. I don't know why I like it but I do. I honestly need to do something a little more with my days. I think I may take up photography a little more or maybe start trying to draw. Does anyone have any suggestions?

No way, no how. Did I get a girlfriend now.


So lately I haven't been posting that many blogs nor have I been online lately souly to the fact that I have found a significant other. I have been over at her apartment nearly every free hour of the day. She cooks, and I do the dishes. Its awesome. But anyways, due to this, I have not had time to take may photos sadly so, needless to say I am behind in my photography class. Not far far behind but enough to scramble to put together my motion assignment. I have a few good shots and sadly, one I had to use that was old. Here is the old one that I love. I miss shooting shows =[

awesome pink sandles




I love my new sandals. they are so sexy I just absolutely love them. I went to take some photos for a project. I rode for about fifteen, twenty miles to take a photo that I didn't even get. so I got really sunburnt and I can't even put on socks.
