new photo wall!!

Photobucketi spent most of my day yesterday running around getting boards cut and brackets and screws for this wall. let me know what you think. once i got i the things together and the boards were ready to go on the wall Samuel, Jon Luke and i put all the pictures on! this was Samuel's idea. he just had me go to home depot and get the boards and do most of the labor. i found these really sweet brackets to slide the huge board into but they didn't really work so well, so we just screwed the whole board into the wall. i'm so glad its finished!!

sunday!!

today was really good. i got 5 hours of sleep last night. i rushed to long beach to go to church with IRA at grace! church was amazing. i met some really cool people. for lunch we went to taco surf (that place is so good. the chips are salsa is so tasty) then we oiled up our body's with tanning oil and headed for the beach!! took a little nap. and threw the football around for about 3 Min's. its getting cold here already. come on heat. that's why i moved down here was for the heat. and my brothers.  i got my butt kicked in tennis by Samuel and IRA.  i don't know why i sucked so bad. 2 days ago we beat IRA so bad he only won a total of 1 game out of like 30. i guess today was just not my day. that means i should play tomorrow because i might be on fire

california!

Hey everyone that looks at my blog. (Samuel and Jon) California is great, i have been here for over a week and a half. Samuel and i have been playing a lot of tennis and a little bit of basketball. (by the way he beat me last night) i bought some really nice running shoes yesterday. now i can go on a run and not have to wear my Reebok pumps. my goal is to lose 17 pounds. how am i going to do that? idk play basketball, tennis, run, not eat anything and if i do eat throw it up after.. OK i guess that's not the best idea. I'll stick with eating healthy and working out.
I now have a California number. so if you are trying to get a hold of me and you can't, its proably because i have a new number.

first time ever beating samuel in basketball

I finally got a membership to the Belmont Athletic club. now i can work out with samuel and not have to sneak in. yesterday was an unusual day. It was the first time i beat Samuel in a game of one on one basketball. we played 3 games i won 2 he won 1.
The sweat on my shirt was dripping off like i had been sprayed down with a hose! we did a little work out after the 3 great games of basketball we played... we even got to little catch of McCain's speech.
Had a wonderful dinner at magic lamp, Audrey was our great waitress, and the food was spectacular.


Here's Samuel's blog welcoming me to Long Beach!!

getting my california drivers license

i woke up this morning with not alot going on... i got to sleep in till 10! i sure needed it! this sun is sure draining me out. i headed off to the DVM at 10:30.. wow that place is packed with crazy people.busier then a 4Th of the July parade!! i stood in line for about 30 Min's. to find out that i need more then just my Washington drivers license. i needed a passport or birth certificate. so i drive back to the studio and Samuel runs down and brings me my passport and birth certificate.. i am bring more then i need so now  they can't be like, "oh now you need this or something" i rush back to the DVM so i don't get stuck behind the mad rush of people that are on there lunch breaks. i finally get my lucky number #187. well it wasn't lucky. i had to wait for 1 hour before they called my number. in the meantime before they call me number i was sitting by this really annoying lady that flipped out when i touched her on  accident, i barely touched her and she almost had a heart attack on me. well that's what she told me. 
           i finally get my picture taken and my thumb print stamped. its time to go into the testing room and stand in another freaking long line.. i take my test. but i failed the motorcycle permit test.. i guess the smart thing would of been to study. well i didn't think about that. 3 1/2 hours later i walk out of the DVM with a little paper sheet that i guess is a temporary drivers license. it doesn't even have my picture on it.. well i guess i won't be driving since i don't have a car yet.

crazy long beach cops

i was riding down second street on my brothers carve board..to get some money out of the bank and also trying to get a job. sure enough i see a cop walking towards me.. he gets about 5 feet away and asks me for my id? (what did i do wrong.. i didn't rob the bank or steal anything...) get this he accused my of riding the board on the sidewalk. which was not true i was riding on the road and i got off the board to walk into Starbucks (i really hope they hire me) well i got out of the ticket because i didn't ride on the side walk.. long beach is crazy.. I'm proably gonna get a ticket this next week for either J walking, bridge jumping, speeding, or maybe even wearing to short of shorts..
