No Heat
Ok so this past week has been and at the same time it hasn't been very fun at all. Ok so starting sunday the heat in my apartment in Logan went out. Well to say the least it is frickin cold in Logan so with no heat our apartment was freezing. Well we called the manager and they came and fixed it or so we thought. Well that night the heat went out again and I got a fever. So that night I had cold shivers from having a fever and not to mention that it was already freezing from no heat Well the next day I woke up with a big cold sore and a really high fever. I went to my classes as usual trying to just tough it out like a Park would. Well I kept coughing a lot and everytime I coughed I got a headache or I made my headache that much worse. Well I tried to later that day go and find an apartment to live in for next semester but as I was driving around I kept getting really light headed and felt like passing out. Well I finally went back to my apartment and checked my temperature and I had a temp of 102 degrees. Well I went to bed early and then I woke up the next morning feeling a bit better because my fever was gone. Well I went to my lab and then drove down to Salt Lake to have family pics. Well while I was down there I went to a doctor and he said I had bronchitis. Well I found out that my brother Luke and my nephew Eli both have bronchitis as well. So we got our pictures taken which was fun. I ended up sleeping at my parentes and skipping all my classes for the next day. I still feel like krap.

Weekend Roadtrip
So this weekend was quite enjoyable. I had to drive up to the dreaded town of Rexburg, yes Rexburg home of BYU idaho. I had to drive up there this weekend to get trained on how to install security systems. Yes its true I will be installing security systems this summer for work. I will be going to Scranton, Pennsylvania, yes thats right Scranton home of Michael Scott and the office. Well anyways I drove up there with my roommate Tyler Draper. It was fun we left friday after my nasty physics test. We went to Smiths and bought a ton of junk food for the road including: Mtn Dew voltage, Lays kettle cooked jalepeno chips(my favorite), jelly beans and candy bars. Well to say the least it was some good bonding time for me and Tyler as we drove the 3 hour drive from Logan to Rexburg. Well APX security paid for the whole thing for us to drive up there and stay in a hotel and for dinner and lunch etc. I learned how to wire and program, basically everything it was a little overwhelming. Well we were only there for 2 days we were finished by 4 on Saturday. Afterwards we went found my mission buddy Steve Holt and watched a movie and talked. Then drove home it was an exciting roadtrip let me tell you. NOT. Well we did have fun once we got back to Logan. Side note there is almost nothing to do in Rexburg it is quite boring sorry to all of those who go there but you know it is true. Well once we got back to Logan we went to a big party for Mardi Gras at the TSC. It was fun they had free food, dancing, an illusionist, gambling, etc. Well we went dancing for a while and showed off our killer moves and then we decided to go to the Illusionist. The Illusionist was frikin awesome it blew my mind how he did the things he did. I can't even explain the things he did. But sidenote we were sitting with some pretty cute girls and I ended up sharing my chair with one of them. That was enjoyable. After that we went up to the top floor and gambled at the fake casino that they had. To say the least its a good thing I don't gamble for real because I would go broke. I lost all my chips pretty fast on black jack. I swear the thing was rigged the Dealer got like 20 or 21 everytime. Well after that we just went home and went to bed both me and Tyler were exhausted from driving. Well our apartment is freezing the heater is broken. Anyways thats the weekend story of my life. chao.

What I have been up to.
Ok yall, lets see where to begin? Ok well as many or all of you know I just passed my year mark for being home off the mission. And in that year I have done lots of stuff. Lets see this past summer I went to Tallahassee, Florida to sell security for 2 months. I did well made a pretty penny and had a lot of fun while I was out there. Had some interesting things happen to me while I was there including: swimming in the ocean and seeing a shark fin, getting a shotgun pulled on my at the doorstep, having one of my friends get robbed at gun point, pulling my manager away from a fight with a rival security company sellsman, and playing with a crockadile. After coming home I just played and got ready for the family rafting trip to Jacksonhole. Then I started school up here at Utah State in Logan, Utah. I'm majoring in mechanical engineering with an emphasis in aerospace engineering. I do a lot of homework all the time and it is essentially all physics and math. I don't have a girlfriend and the prospect of marriage looks like it will be far into the future. I have been playing a lot up here. I've been going and watching my aggies kill everyone and anyone who comes to the spectrum, playing basketball, soccer, going country dancing, slack lining and going a quite a few dates. Thats is basically what I have been up to lately. So now that you are all caught up on what is going on in my life the next few blogs should containg more stories in greater detail to make things more interesting.

Why I started a blog
Well my dad told me that he wanted everyone in my family to start a blog so we can all stay in touch. Why did he say that? Well my 5th oldest brother or the one just older than me Luke joined the army. Also my dad has been talking to my other brothers, mainly Owen, and he found out that no one in my family really knows whats going on with the rest of the family. But Owen's and Luke's families both have blogs, and my dad really liked the fact that he could get on their blogs and find out what everyone is up to. He was so excited about these blogs that when I was down the last time he dragged me over to the computer and got on the computer to show me these blogs and the pictures that have been posted on each of them. Well to say the least I was impressed that my dad knew how to get on the internet and find the blogs, so just because of that is the reason for my decision to start this blog. So I hope all my faithful fans and readers enjoy my ramblings and thoughts on life.
