Windshield

Well after all fall and basically winter, I finally am getting my cracked windsheild replaced. I am getting it done thursday. The bad thing is that I have to leave my car there all day. I would have done it earlier, but I could never find the right place to do it, and then when I finally did, I would check out the place and it would be closed on Saturdays. How stupid is that? Saturday is the day to do that kind of stuff! I couldnt believe it! Same story with oil places and stuff. I dont understand how they do it. Oh well.
In other news, I sold 2 of my books from last semester on amazon for a little over $120.00 total. I am pretty glad about that!
Thats about it
We play on Sat.!

Mike Tyson


So I have been playing Mike Tyson's Punch Out lately, and I am addicted! I am stuck on Mike though, he is so hard to beat! I only have made it to the second round with him once, and then I just got dominated! Dont worry, I will make you all proud and beat him, then I will take a picture for posterity reasons.
I really dont have much else to say right now, so see ya

Swimmin'

We still cant get out on the field because it is too muddy, but we were supposed to just throw and hit, and for our conditioning we were had to swim for a half hour. Well it turns out that we had people late and forget stuff, so we had to do some killer sprints forever. Our coaches were not happy at all. But needless to say, the swimming was hard at first because we did laps, and then we just messed around, it was so fun. It was good conditioning, but it didnt even seem like it because it was fun. Well thats about it. Its Friday night, and I need to party!! ha ha just kidding, I dont even think we are doing anything.
See ya

Oh mom,I sent letters to aunt veda and aunt rhonda, and I got my contacts yesterday, thanks!

New Fleece

This is my new fleece that we got today. It is pretty cool, we can only wear it to practice and games, so it is kind of a bummer, but they are cool anyway.





It is SO COLD outside!! I freeze at practice! The wind is so bad. All we can wear to practice is long sleeves. I never can get warm.

Stupid house

No one ever cleans our house, it drives me CRAZY!! I am always the only one that ever does anything. I just got done cleaning the kitchen, it was so bad. No one does their dishes, or puts stuff away. Tomorrow is when the RA comes and does a house check, and it seems like I am the only one that ever cares. Last week I cleaned the bathroom, and I did a dang good job if you ask me! I cant stand it when everything is just dirty everywhere. I cant just let it sit there, I have to do something about it, because I know that if I dont do it, it will never get done. GRRR this is tough stuff!!

New internet and stuff

I finally just got my internet working today. I had to buy a new wireless card becuase I think I fried the last one. But now its working like a charm.
One of my classes got cancelled today, that was AWESOME!!! I love it when that happens. I was done with school at 10:00 today. Here is a picture of my car after the storm. It was completely covered. The white part it at least an inch thick. It was so bad.






This is our HUGE 50 inch tv





This is some random sign that is in the middle of the city, I thought it was funny

Frain


Today I had my first experience with freezing rain. It was crazy! It has been doing it all day, and the ground is just covered with ice. It was really weird. I am glad I didnt have to drive anywhere, because I dont think that my car would be able to handle it, especially since I live on a huge hill. Crazy stuff.
So we have been watching Prison Break all week. We all finished season one yesterday, and they have all been catching up on the beginning of season 2 to get ready for the next episode tomorrow night, so that is a pretty funny thing. Everyone at the house is completely hooked, its funny!

Some random thoughts

Well I am just sitting in the library killing time during study hall. It is pretty boring. I got my work done, and now I have nothing to do. I have to come for baseball so thats a bummer. It has been so cold lately. Practice has so freakin cold this week!! It has been so bad. I can never feel my hands, and it is so hard to run. We have been doing a lot of running, and my legs are so sore!! I can barely get out of bed in the morning. Oh well, I am hitting pretty good so that is encouraging. I think that we will have a pretty good team, I am excited!
School is going good, I really like my institute class. I am taking a Book of Mormon class from Mosiah to Moroni. My teacher is a couple missionary in this area, and he teaches 3 or 4 classes. He is a really good teacher. He taught at Utah State before this mission. He really keeps you involved and interested. Good stuff. We actually have 2 sets of couple missionaries here it is a pretty cool thing.
I need to buy groceries pretty bad. I havent shopped since I first got here, and all I bought was cereal, milk, P, B and J fixins, and some Brats for the good ole George Foreman. Oh man those were so good!!
We have 3 George's at the house, its funny. Mine is the medium size, another one is newer and smaller, and there is a really wide one too. Its funny, the people that own the grills dont usually cook on their own one.
Anyway, that is about it for now.
Have a good one

My southern virginia university education

So I like my school schedule. I am done a 12:00 on MWF and I have an 8:00 class and 1:00 instutute on Tue Thur. I like it, Its nice to be done so early. I think that I will really like my astronomy class. It has been really interesting so far, and the teacher is really good. He is good at keeping everyone interested, and he is a pretty cool guy. I really am going to like my athletic training class too. I have I think 7 other guys on the team in the class with me, so it is fun. Plus the teacher is the athletic trainer here, and he and I get along well. He is really a cool guy. He is the one who taught my volleyball class.
Well thats about it for now, I have to finish my laundry, and then go to practice.

Practice and some KILLER ladybugs

Well I had a post that talked about my first practice today, but it got erased, so lets just summarize and say that it went well, and it was good to be back! My hands are getting torn up though so thats not to cool.
I am pretty sore from lifting this morning; we did legs, and my legs were so tired for practice. I could barely run normal when we ran at the end. It was hard.

Oh, we pretty much have hundreds of ladybugs in our room. It is the weirdest thing I have ever seen. We are the only room with them, and they just chill by the lights. You can always here them banging on the lights, I just dont get it. The gross thing is that the guy that lived in this room before left his stuff over Christmas, and there were dead ladybugs all over the room when we got in. He had a mini fidge, and there were tons under it, and they were spread out over the floor. Stupid ladybugs! I just vaccuumed the room, and that made it look ten times better. I couldnt do it before because I thought that the vacuum was broken, and of coarse no one esle would do it, so there ya have it.
Dad, did you ever get ladybugs on your mission? Or how about you in Jersey, Chad?
Kind of a weird phenomenon if you ask me.
Well thats about it for me.
Talk to y'all later


Happy Birthday Staci and Clark by the way.

Ahoy

Today was a good day. I am supposed to go to a new ward because I moved, but I decided to stay in the same one. I am really glad that I am. I like my ward a lot. There are a lot of people that didnt come back this semester. We have like a 3 to 1 girl to guy ratio, its funny.
Man, I just got done watching 24. It was pretty good; intense as always. I am glad the good shows are finally coming back on tv. Prison Break has really got me excited.
So I bought some Listerine, and it came with a free trail container of Listerine Whitening. You use it before you brush, and after like 12 weeks you get results. I think it will be pretty cool, except you swish it for a minute, and it has hydrogen peroxide in it, and it is making my tongue feel weird. Oh well, it is just a price I will have to pay I guess!
Farewell

More pics

Well we found out today that Josh could move in with us. He got a single room in our house for the same price as us because he couldnt stand living with the other people in his house. It is funny that all four of us live in the same house: Me, Kellen, Josh and Dustin.

Speaking of Josh... I called him today, or so I thought. I put Josh Burton's number in my phone at the Christmas party, and i accidently called him today. It was so weird at first. He said at first he was wondering if there was something wrong or something like that. It was a surprise for both of us. Pretty funny.
Well I should be sleeping right now, so here are some more pictures for your viewing pleasures


The kitchen is on the top floor, its weird. The house is a split level house.

This is my side of the room

This is Kellen's side

The New Mustachio

I accidently erased the last picture of my mustache, so here is another one.
fyi i dont have it any more so settle down! ha ha

This water tower is why its called the tower house

Howdy

Well I am back in BV. It isnt too bad yet, I had one class today: it was English. It was not too bad, plus I have a lot of friends in the class, so I am not too worried about it. I think this semester wont be too hard at all. Its still pretty warm out here. I am just about completely moved in. My room is pretty sweet, it is so big. I will put pictures on here, but it didnt work when I tried it, so I will do it later.
