BoySetsFire



So i went home this weekend to make sure everyone in my family was safe and sound from the miniature apocalypse going on in southern California right now.  I was very surprised to see and smell the amount of smoke and ash hovering around my beautiful abode.  This is by far the worst fire incident in Southern Cal i have seen in my life time.  For the first three nights i was home the sun was covered in smoke and at night it would be blood red.  I am happy to say that everyone is fine and things are starting to go back to normal.  
They say the majority of the fires were started by arsonists.  Well i say they are a bunch of arses.  What kind of creep gets his jollies from starting a fire that causes mass destruction and terror.  I just dont understand the world we live in today.  Dont get me wrong there are plenty of things i love and appreciate, but there are other things that really confuse me and  bring me down.  
Im sorry for all those who have been affected by these tragic events and i hope for a strong recovery.




On a lighter note while home i got to play with my gorgeous nieces and handsome nephew.  It was so fun, making cookies, changing diapers (soon to get old) and just loving them to pieces.  Im sorry to say this to anyone who has kids, but these babies are the most adorable and beautiful kids i have ever seen.  I may be a little bias but its true.
My dad also put on one of his famous USC game day spreads for the entire family and for our friends the Malu's.  The food was fantastic, unfortunately the game was not.  What is USC's deal, we have all the parts for a high performance team, but some of the passengers (Sarkisian) just dont know how to drive.  We need to get this figured out by next season, but until then it looks like the Holiday or Vegas Bowl for us :(

DumbleBackDoor???

COMING OUT
Ok for those who have been living under a rock for the last 10 years may not know much about the Harry Potter series.  Those who know me know that i am obsessed with the books and movies.  Yes i actually read now and then.  But recently the author, J.K. Rowling, of the famous series came out and said that Dombledore, the beloved Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, is gay.  
Now I would like to think i am very accepting and open to the lifestyles people choose to live, but for J.K. Rowling to take one of the most endearing and influential characters of the book and define his sexual preference to me seems a bit much.  I mean, who really cares about the sexual habits of wizards except those who are into Dungeons and Dragons and other weird role playing games like that.  Now if Dumbledores preference had some sort of influence on the outcome of the story then by all means mention it! My issues is that this little tidbit had nothing to do with Harry adventures through puberty and restoring the wizarding world.  
The great thing about books is that it leaves so much to the readers imagination, J.K. dont take away our right of creative interpretation by defining every little irrelevant query, (pun intended), that may go unanswered.

My First Entry

So i have a few siblings and friends that have a blog and i find myself checking them constantly.  I know kinda creepy but get over it.  Since these friends and family do not enjoy the same stalkerish habits that i do, i have decided to create a blog so that they can keep up to date with the things that are going on in my life and mind.  I am completely new to this, but like i said before, i have seen so many blogs i kinda get the idea.  I just hope i can keep up with it.  So here it is, the blog of a boy who's head is stuck between two states.  I hope you enjoy!!!
