Sitting here thinking

I was siting here watch some of my fav. bands music videos and it just hit me.

I can't wait to refresh.
start over.
rebegin.
renew.

College is looming and I am ready to greet it with open arms.

See I may love shelton but I feel "held" down. like I

I feel like I cant do anything and havn't been able to do anything.

So I can't wait to go to ellesburg and start over.

I think that going will give me the chances to start over.

I feel like i will be able to impact ellesburg.

I feel like I will be able to make a difference.

and I am getting excited, I really feel like I have a chance to help the world out. To make an impact.

its time to refresh.

oops

for all you Google readers, i forgot to spell check, so come here to read it right.

i delete this post after a bit.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

or for a more correct title Indiana Jones and the crazy alien skulls.


Spoiler alert! I will be talking about the movie soo... you have been warned.


I liked indy. In fact he was my childhood hero.



This (above) is/was who I wanted to be. A man with a whip, a six shooter, and a leather outfit.

Other kids had spiderman or superman but I had a hero who I could actually become. (ha! look at me now)



So i was super and I mean SUPER exited here they were making another one.

and heres the movie review:



The movie started out great! It was funny and had some good action scenes, but once it got to the "aliens" part the movie just seemed to die. The last 20 or so minutes SUCKED and Ruined the movie for me. Totally ruined it. It was just weird with all the alien crap going on. I do not believe in aliens and don't know how people can, but this wasn't a sci-fi crap but an Indiana Jones Movie, you know the type with fist punching, crazy villains, explosions. You all know what I am talking about. But GEORGE LUCAS ruined this movie for me and all the other hard core Indy fans. (read this story). Spielberg is a great director and he did an awesome job. It really was made great. It looked great and sounded great (as good as you can get at shelton). but the problem wasn't the acting (also good/boarder line great) but the Freaking script and that was Lucas part. I am not a big fan of Lucas and believe that he is quite crazy and I think his craziness showed here.

i feel like indy has been dragged through the mud:

anyone catch the old indy joke that could go with the pic?

Crash, bang, boom.

Today at three I am going into Shelton to see the doctor to find out if my knee cap is cracked or broken. enough people have asked how its happened to warrant a blog post.

about a week ago Nathan picked me up so we could do something w/the mob. I forgot something in my house and ran inside through the garage I crashed hard. What broke my fall was my left knee. (the best way of explaining it is a twenty car collision on I-5)

Need less to say it hurt but I took a can of man up and went on trucking.
Well since then my i can't put any pressure on my "bad" knee and it now hurts to walk, plus the left one is bigger then the my right knee.

I came back from beach and look it up and I believe my knee cap is cracked which equals a cast from ankle to thigh for six weeks. No bueno.

BEACH

So last weekend I (and a bunch of others) went to beach it was fun and I will write three total post on beach,
1. Funnest thing
2. Second funnest thing
3. Recap

so get ready for a ride.

I got to go whitewater rafting and it was a blast here are the some of the following photos:




w/these pics look at Mikeys face (front right of the boat)

Our boat (kyle, mikey, swany, jake, and me + our awesome guide Meghann) was the best and we "won the race"
We all became men (rule number 3) {sorry for the inside joke}
also i got a doctors appointment tomorrow to find out if my knee cap is cracked/broken. kinda nervous cuz it would (maybe) wreak softball/camping.

Its now an open floor.

I am kinda running out of things to write about so if you have something you would like to me to write about, leave a comment anonymous or not and I will write about it. (unless its one the of things that I won't write about (men's retreat/softball/youth group/family)

So I open up the floor.


(not like anyone is going to comment or anything but you always have to hope {inside joke on hope [sorry]})

Sometimes I hate making up titles.

You know this last week has been kinda weird.
I did my senior project and boy am I glad that’s done.
I kinda lost my wallet yesterday, I had just cashed my paycheck and poof it was all gone, more on that later.
We lost in softball in fact we got thumped. I get a standup double with three rbi’s. (more on this later)
I really am looking forward to hanging with a bunch of guys tomorrow airsofting and cooking over a open flame, its starting to become something that I really enjoy.

Now on to the wallet/softball thing. I shocked myself yesterday. I never lost control of my emotions and made any “rash” choices.

As a man who likes to fly by the seat of his pants, I don’t normally keep my emotions in check, but it was something that I have been working on. And to my surprise its working/worked.

I am/was shocked.

And yet a part of me says “nice going AJ, but now we moving on to the next one”

so i guess here we go.

Huh?

So i got this email from somebody at Verve Earth. I like the idea and who knows I plan on giving it a shot. (if any of you know anything about this let me know.
I will post about my week later.

Peace out.

Mistress of Death, Slayer of Kings, Tyrant of Power, and well you get the idea.

Yes thats right ladies and gentlemen, this is a M1a1 tommy gun.

Mac vs Dell


So since I am going to college I am planing on getting a new laptop.
I have been half and half on the apple vs microsoft.
I do all my work on a Mircosoft and its ok.
I owe a ipod and have NOT been impressed with apples product OR Itunes.
So considering that I am going into enigerning I have decieded on my laptop. (i think)
here it is.

price 1044.00
I will buy RAM after market.
So why did I post this?
because I promised all you apple user to being able to match this.
So here you go. Show me an apple thats within the same price (+/- $100) and is brand new.
At lunch I have been using brads new apple and I like it, its cool but not cool enough to spend a lot more money on.

Again just a quick update:

I am now going to CWU. Paid my admission fee. Getting excited/nervous.

I will be applying to live in the Leadership LLC (learning living community) and the Outside LLC.
Kinda nervous about those.

I am really struggling whether airsofting is ok. Sometimes I say no and sometimes its a yes.

Compare this two pictures, which one is really a special ops team?
1.
or 2.

I listen to more and more music each day.

I can't wait to graduate.

If I had to describe Beach in a phrase it would be: Gonna be interesting.

Is it just me or did Lost lose its "stuff" back in the third season.

This satudray I cooked and ate a hot-dog off my rambo knife.
I felt like a man.

By the way the answer is the first pic is the real team the second is airsofters.
peace out.

So a couple of things

So a couple of things that i would like to complain about.
1. The double cheeseburger at McDonald's is not a dollar any more! its now 1:30. CHEAPSAKES. Those were the only reason I went to you in the first place. PISS!
2.Labels. Brads having me count labels at work and all I got to say to that is: MEL GIBSON!
4. The Number three, I figured out last night that three is my unlucky number. (Hence why I skipped it) ADAM SANDLER!
5. The Mariners, if we cant beat them in a game what makes you (I am talking to YOU Sexson you should hold your head in shame!) think that you can beat them in a fight. Throw some punches! BOB SAGET!
6. People who say things from stuff they haven't seen. NATHAN S!

Done.

Music

So here is some good stuff to listen to...
Placebo may be old but still good if you like alternative/electric.
Ludo is "new" but I only like one song (Love Me Dead) I do believe they are a one hit wonder.
Two times by The Blakes is an interesting song, I have a love/hate relationship with it.
The CD Punk Goes Crunk is a very well done cd, the punk bands sound good singing "crunk" songs.
New band that you never heard off but is good...
Slowly we Survive (or for you hard rock fans) A Hope For Home.


Most listened band on my ipod last week...

She Wants Revenge


also Angels and Airwaves is my alternative band and totally in my top three.

just for the record my top fav bands are (really in no order)
1. Project 86
2. Rise Against
3. Angels and Airwaves
4. Chevelle
5. The Raconteurs/Snow Patrol

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

This weekend at mens retreat me and a group of guys went airsofting and after we went to go see Iron Man (review coming) and half way in the movie I thought is/was airsofting "too" real. if you don't believe me search airsoft guns or visit here. (if your looking for a gun go here its got good prices) The guns look real don't they? Which part of me says "AWESOME" but part of me says not cool.
I don't really know why I feel like this. Maybe because we are running around "killing" people.
It kinda seems do as I say not as I do?

To clarify I still am going airsofting this Saturday, but will keep thinking about it. (thats a open invite, just let me know)

Update...After thinking hard about this I wonder if it has to deal with the fact that I have killed living "real" animals. (4 deer) I don't hunt anymore either.

So still thinking over here, your input would be GREATLY appreciated.

So...

So I haven't posted a while and I am on lunch break so I will throw something together.
I am really getting excited about going to CWU. but I didn't realize all I have to do, pick a place to live food plan, etc, etc, etc.
Kinda getting over whelmed.

I really like going airsofting with the guys. Most times its just the Marinade crew and I think thats just perfect.

Fort Knox still stands and can not be beaten.


Whats up with the M's? Come on get your act together.

College football spring games have started.
I can't wait for it to start up again.

that is all.
