Ultimate Biters!

John, there is now a biter that is worse than you...now, microsoft is opening "Microsoft Stores" all around the U.S...PLUS! (it gets much much worse) a majority of the new locations are either next to or right across from already open Mac Stores... also, since microsoft cant come up with there own ideas, they are putting "Guru Bars" in there stores, much like the Genius Bars in the Mac Stores...jerks... START COMING UP WITH YOUR OWN IDEAS MICROSOFT!!! AND LASTLY, the most messed up part of all of this, microsoft is telling mac store employees that they will pay them more if they come work for the microsoft store...thats pretty low...
sheesh, and to think i actually was impressed with the Zune HD... at least with that microsoft CAME UP WITH THERE OWN IDEAS!!!! -.- Watch this video, it has the story and some cool stuff about a possibly new iMac...

ok, im done venting....

Mac Poser

i would like to dedicate this blog post to my best friend john. now john wishes he had a Mac so he tried to make himself feel better by attempting to make his Toshiba (vista...ew) look "like" a Mac. he does this by downloading widgets for his desktop, a dock for all his programs, and moving his tool bar to the top of the screen, silly john. just buy a Mac! jk john, i love you. even tho your a poser...

My almost all Mac faimily

Cool Websites

I just found 2 new favorite websites...the first is CNET, its pretty cool. its got info on almost all the new technology coming out. it compares different gadgets and shows what each one does best. they have reviews on almost every piece of technology ever made. they also have all kinds of videos that come out every week that talk about new gadgets coming out or show the top five programs out there...i dunno, i guess its just a geek thing...

the other one is ThinkGeek.com. this website IS for geeks. its got all kinds of cool toys. everything from high powered lazer pointers to shirts that only other geeks could get... im not a weird geek tho, im one of those cool ones that actually have a life... any ways...i lost my train of thought...wow, what a pointless post....

Guahan Christian Camp 2009

Camp this year was awesome! even though i went late and missed strobe light games :( and got burnt :( and got my foot cut and later infected, and john went home D=.... but other than all that camp was so fun! spent time w/ all my close friends, chilled at the beach, jet skied, and learned sooo much! speaking of set skiing, when we were at the beach me and josh kayaked all the was to cocos island...it was so fun and the people on the beach thought we died cause we were gone so long!...it was fun having the new gym this year, we played knockout like every time we were in there. i never won tho...even with my cheating :( wow, theres so many ":(" faces in this note....anyways, i dont know what else to write but there was so much that went on! you just had to have been there! sad for u...ok, there are more photos here!

First Generation Combat Group

are team was almost all together yesterday. we had everyone but josh. its ok tho josh, we had fun without you! are team yesterday was me, cueto, lujan, mike, wiglz, and cory boy. we played two games in the jungle and lost both -.- then we went to "the House" and played CQB. it was so awesome! our team started in the house while the other team (ryans uncles) tried to "take over" the second floor of the house...and they did...it was still tons of fun even though we lost....twice...then we tried taking the second floor while the other team defended. me and cory boy went up the stairs in the house next to it and across the roof to try and get in through the bathroom window. cueto and wiglz went around and tried to get in through the front and up the stairs. mike sniped from the jungle and lujan met up with me and cory boy after he wondered around for a while...i think that was the only game we won that day but we all had a blast and cant wait till next time!!

week late...

i ment to put this up a week ago but....wut the hey, ill do it now...

last week josh the intern (idk how to spell his last name) spoke at hfc. he said 2 things that really stuck out.

first, he gave the example "if i were to come in 30 mins late with a few scratches and maybe a little blood and u asked why i was late. and i told you that i was walking on the side of the main road and saw something shiny on the other side. so without looking i ran across to get it and a huge logging truck(we dont even have those on island) that weighed 4 million pounds and going 200 mph ran over me. you wouldnt believe me unless i had some kind of witness or video. and if i did have a video i would totally go youtube it right away so everyone would know what happened." then he said we should be like that when spiritual things happen. like if you found a cool gospel video or learn something new. which is one reason im doing this blog.

the other thing was he owned a million dollar house and he hired the best carpenters on island to build him some cabinets. he said he would pay them each 10 grand when he got back from vacation. but when he got back he found his house burned to the ground. his normal reaction would be to make the workers pay for all the damage, but they could never afford it. instead, he forgave them and on top of that paid them for the work they did on the cabinets before they burnt his house down...thats exactly how God forgave us, He sent his only son to die for us, and on top of that He gave us a free ticket to heaven, NOW THATS AWESOME!

so yeah, sorry this is so late, but its finally up!

License!

a few weeks ago my driving test had to be rescheduled because i didnt have any id -.- so it was rescheduled for today. my instructor was Ben (my inside source said he was the cool guy) so i felt lucky! the most demarits you can get at once and still pass is 30...and i got 30, LOL
not really, but at least i passed! im so happy...ok, thats all for now!

ok, not really, I GOT MY LICENSE!!!!!!WOOT!!!!!PARTY!!!!

Its finally summer, i've been waiting for this all year long! still dont have my license yet -.- but i get it next week for sure! my family just moved into our new house(btw, its not the same as the picture i put up earlier...we bought the baldwins old house) this blog is kinda just wuts been happening the past few days, so im sorry its so random...oh yeah, i got a twitter, so if u have one, totaly add me...to night is graduation for the seniors, u know wut that means? IM A SENIOR NEXT YEAR!!!
woot.ok, this is all i have time for right now so....yeah....bye, who ever reads these things....

plans?

Ever plan on something and it totally didnt even happen?...yeah, thats me. For one, i ordered my guns last thursday...and they were suppose to be here today, but evike couldnt ship internationally when the order is over 100 bucks. So i shipped it to jenni in the states and they couldnt ship right away because they needed the credit card holders contact info -.- so to make a long story longer, they shipped two of the three guns and the other one went on backorder cause the sold out -.- then i just upgraded to a better one for free...so the one didnt ship till today ='[
also today, my driving test got moved till next week -.- arg! but God did it for a reason, maybe the guy that took my place dodged an oncomming car and hit a telephone pole.....

Making a Difference

Next years theme for Harvest Baptist Church is Making a Difference. Jude 22 says, "And of some have compassion, making a difference"
ok, so now you know what the pic above is for. But the cool thing is me and Bella made it! =D
here's the story, sunday morning my dad came up to me and told me that kev wanted me to make the pic for next years theme. so after church i went looking for ideas of a pic for "Making a Difference". after tons of ideas, and help from stamper, and about 9 versions of the pic above, we came up with that. i did the background and live tree and bella did the text and final touches.
we have tons of ideas still in our heads so hopefully we'll come out with more later!

Jonior Senior Banquet 2009

Ah, an evening in Paris! sounds nice right?...

My mom said i was gunna be just like my dad and be up and down working on sound and all that the whole night.....she was right D=*sobs* so pretty much the whole night i was working and didnt have as much time to sit w/ my friends....friend as i wanted....

Science Fair

Woot! its finally over!!! After weeks of working on it we're done! me and j.j. didnt win anything but we'll get over it. saturday morning we went to science fair to set up our table and stuff. it all looked good and i even made a little slide show with pictures and played it on my laptop. and since im really bad at writing, heres some pics...

More English Issues....

so, yesterday in research class i wrote a poem...yeah, we had to... and iwrote a 2 line poem and rhymed "Wiglz" with "Skittles". And miss Cary is all like, "woah, that doesnt rhyme" (or something like that)so i was all sad and stuff cause i had to start over... then today in english class we learn about this Ezra Pound guy...he wtote this poem:

"In a Station of the Metro"
The apparition of these faces in the crowd;
Petals on a wet, black bough.

Then we talked about how this guy became famous with this poem and how he won al these literate prizes like the bollirgen prize and the stanley cup...or something.... and i was all like, "dude, i wrote a 2 line poem yesterday and i couldnt keep it cause it wasnt "11th grade level" and because "Wiglz" and "Skittles" didnt rhyme!!! CROWD AND BOUGH DONT EVEN COME CLOSE TO RHYMING!!!!

ok, im done venting.....

Non-Existent Band

dude...me, josh, john, and ryan totally have a non-existent band that has four original songs! woot! the reason its "non-existent" is because we dont have a name, or album, or fame, or our own bus that we could tour guam in...or sponsors...or fan club -.- but were getting there! so, if you would like to become a part of our fan club that is non-existent (like our band), just follow this blog! i dont know how to do it but if u can figure it out, good for you!(fans will get a sneek peek of our first song!!!) ok, thats all for now...
and if you have any ideas for a name, please leave a comment...

Josh and ryan on guitar
Wiglz on piano
Luke on Mac (tech geek)

Flight Attendant Rapping!!

English Trial Paper

So we had this "trial" thing in English class where someone acting like Mark Twain was on trial...three people were chosen as judges, one was chosen as a bailiff, 5 were chosen as lawyers, the lawyers picked there witnesses and if you wernt picked as anything you bacame a jury member.... later everyone had to write a full page of what they did during the trial. this is my paper:

For the Mark Twain trial in english class I am a nobody. If you are a nobody you automatically get put into the jury unless you were picked by a lawyer to be a witness. So, all the nobodies, or jury members, just sit and listen during the trial. We need to take notes every once in a while so Miss Cary knows we are paying attention. Normally during a real trial, the jury members help decide wether or not the accused person is guilty or not. In this case, since the jury was just assigned to give all the nobodies a name to help them feel like they were a part of the trial and to give them something to do, we just sit and listen. Now, the bailiff gets to stand up every once and a while to announce cool things that don't apply to the jury cause we just sit there and try not to day dream. During the trial the jury has to remain totally quiet, they don't have to right to talk about how they feel about the subject, even the judge has the right to have his own opinion. The only time the jury can talk is when there's a recess, and only the judge can call a recess...figures...So yeah, thats basically all the jury does, the good side of it is...ummm....hold on....ok, i cant think of anything. Is this a page yet? Yeah, close enough...

What a Weekend!!

WOW! i'm just gunna start out saying that....

Friday was Field Day, which means there were hundreds of kids running around campus like maniacs playing pointless games that steal your money....yep, thats Field Day...and me and Ryan spent the whole day outside grilling =D we had a blast...

i started out my Saturday by waking up to run a 5k...weird huh? i started pacing myself w/ Asia and i about died after 10 minuets. (she's a beast!) i am not built to run... -.- it felt good tho, i ran most of it and ended with a 36:02 for my time...not my best, but its ok

After the 5k i went home to work on my science fair project with j.j. It's due next week and we had like 5 months to work on it...and we just started it today...tomorrow i gadda run em'. Oh yeah, you dont know what it is, me and j.j. are building 2 solar water heaters and comparing how well they do at different times of the day. heres some pics:
While we were working...woah, all w's...so, While we were working on our science project the rest of my family and some others were packing up our house so we could move. yes, we're moving. me and j.j. ran ro some stores to get a pump and a science board, when we got home my house was a wreck D= now half of my room is in the other house is in the livingroom and the other half is at the other house....
