Motivation.

I'm packing up for home now, but recently hit the 'lack of motivation wall' that typicaly comes with sleep deprivation. I think this combo should do the trick and get me back on track. Or it'll just send me back to bed holding my stomach. We'll see what happens!

Hell or High Water

Tamara sent me the new As Cities Burn cd Hell or High Water today!
As soon as I got it I called Chris up and we headed to a secluded room on campus.
When he arrived I had already set up my computer for an As Cities Listening Party!


In case you're curious, the cd's great.
And I absolutely love that Tamara sent it to me
the minute it came out.
I love her.



93!!!


93 Days left till Tamara and I are married!! It's kinda ridiculous to think about. It feels like it's taking so long to get there! But every married couple I talk to is just like "oh yeah! that's really soon! It's going to fly by so quickly." ...Nothing is flying.
I have 8 Days until I get to see her again! 8's killing me!
But I guess it will be different when I actually get to be with her! 800 miles away isn't the coolest way in the world to communicate with your best friend. Not to mention I was stupid and left my phone charger back home, so I have a phone, just no life in it. Why does my phone have to be so dramatic and DIE all the time!? Well I know it'll be soon. Time is relative.

ketchup!

I know i've been terrible at keeping this up to date lately.
I have a folder on my computer full of pictures that need
to be blogged! I'll do my best now to catch you up!


Okay, so first off, if you didn't already know, I've been taking a class on Sound & Recording at school. One of our requirements for the class is that we have to have run 5 live sound events.
For my first, Chris Patterson and I teamed up and ran sound for Jimmy Robeson.



While the show was going on, Jeremy was making sushi behind us!



I'm assuming there was a pretty big gap here, but Spring Break came! And it was great.
I'm not going to lie, I kinda want to go back home now! But that's not the point of this blog...
Tamara and I scheduled an appointment with Kevin's Photography for our engagement pictures!
So we followed Kevin around Central and made us pose awkwardly in all kinds of weird places.
There were a lot of people on Central that day! Some we knew, some were new.
Haha! Just kidding.


But I loved my week there. I pretty much spent the entire break with Tamara!
It was beautiful.
I got to visit her at work and tell customers to leave when they started acting up.
I love her. We have less than 100 days before we get married and I never have
to leave her again! But again, also not the point of this blog.


Well, I was supposed to head back to school on Sunday (Easter). A nice Easter drive (800 miles back to school) was delayed due to my car feeling under the weather.
We took it in and found out that if i had driven it out, it would have died and I would have been stranded in the desert without a phone, no other means of transportation, no water, no fire for the night, and only food enough to last me the minute. No cars ever drive on the road I was going to take. It wouldn't have been good.
So it was kinda sad that my car wasn't working, but such good things came from it!
Bet you couldn't guess, but I spent that extra time I had with Tamara!
I didn't mind it.
So on Easter, we stayed at my house for a bit watching golf, then headed over to
Tamara's sisters for lunch!
As you can see, Charlie and I were about to get into a pretty intense game of Guitar Hero.
It got brutal. Before you knew it, we were swinging guitars, hanging from rafters and slamming the guitars on the side of the tables.
He won
(I let him).

I went back to school eventually.
That's where I am now.
I'll keep blogging!
I promise!
