UPDATE


Ok so where have i been? In the adlab looking into a glowing box called my computer throwing together a creative portfolio for a possible internship in Seattle, and most importantly for my application to the creative track of the advertising program. Its a very competitive and stressful process but I am enjoying it and giving it my all. There are a lot a great and talented people who are applying so it should be interesting.
But to answer all your burning questions that is where i have been and what i am up to. I turned in a portfolio for Seattle yesterday and the application for the creative track is due on the 4th of April. So until then I will remain a ghost. Im just lucky that Its something i really enjoy doing because if I didn't, i might punch my eye sockets out.

Call me Dr. Jones...DOLL!!!

The happiest day of my life came yesterday when Paramount released the official preview for the new Indiana Jones Preview.  I have been an obsessed Indiana fan since forever.  I was him for halloween about five times, was at Disneyland for the opening of the ride and had the Fedora Hat and Bullwhip.  If i could be in any movie ever made or going to be made i can say with confidence that it would be the Indiana Jones movies.  I hope that by sharing this preview you can all get as hyped up as I am for this movie.  Whether good or bad I know I will love this movie.  So here it is the next installment of Dr. Jones.

Movie review

2 post in one day...I know its so unlike me.  But i wanted to get your guys opinion.  I really am not a fan of writing a ton of things about myself or other random interesting tidbits.  I want to write about something I love and am passionate about...movies.  I see tons of movies all the time, whether its at the cinema (always wanted to say that) of a rental.  I would love to start a blog giving movie reviews for you guys and anyone else interested in.  I always get phone calls from people asking me if I have seen this movie or that and whether i like it or not.  So why not help everyone out, including myself, and write a review blog of movies i have seen.  I know not everyone will see eye to eye with my taste and review but if the general consensus is that you would like this, i will try to wear a more critical and honest hat when watching movies.  So please let me know because this is something I would love to do. 

Its just Hair

Winter can be so boring, so my roommate sammy and me decided to spice it up a bit by giving ourselves new trims.  Every now and then i always tell myself I want to shave my head.  I did it last year and enjoyed it so why not do it again.  I usually talk myself out of it because of the awkward grow back, you know the up and out making anyone who has a buzz look like a puff ball.  Anyways I decided to go for it.  I took it really short with a #1 and here are the results.  I understand a lot of you will probably not like it but what the hey, its only hair and will be grown back out in a couple months.  As for now though i am enjoying it.

Abstract at the MET

I realize its been over a month and I apologize.  I have been so busy with school and doing a little traveling!!!  I have taken some opportunities to get out of the Provs and enjoy what the states have to offer.  
During the first week of school I was invited by Hoven to go to Florida and help out with the Surf Expo.  It was a really fun time being with the buddies.  We worked hard every day standing and talking to people about the glasses and company.  I never realized how nice and clean Orlando is.  I thought it was a really cool city and wouldn't mind going back one of these days and spending more time enjoying the sights.  
The next trip I took was to New York!!!  A fabulous person i know named Brooke invited me out there to spend some time with her and finally after all these years experience the Big Apple.  Brooke was a spectacular host and such an amazing person.  We ran each other ragged.  We accomplished all we had wanted to accomplish.  Here is a quick run down on the events: Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, MET, Rockefeller Center, Ground Zero, St. Patrick's Cathedral, The Phantom of the Opera, West Village, SoHo, Canal Street, Little Italy, Brooklyn Bridge, Subway System, Westville Restaurant (Brooke's Favorite), Serendipity, Cafe Lalo (You got Mail Cafe), Stage Deli, Central Park, Plaza Hotel, FAO Schwartz, Times Square, Pizza joints, Pinkberry, Magnolias bakery, Cloverfield, and tons more.  
We really did quite a bit.  My sincerest thank you to the amazing Brooke for the time of my life.  You are the best!!!  I loved NYC and can totally see myself living there.  My dad has told me since i was a little kid that NY is the place for me, and now i can see why.  The energy and motion of the city is so contagious and motivating.  Brooke calls it the channel, but i call it the Speed of Life.  
If you haven't been, which is highly unlikely (i feel like Im the last person on earth to go to NY), I recommend you go.  Just get out there and do it.  You will get so motivated and fired up on life.  I am envious to those whom I know that had the opportunity to live out there, hopefully its my turn soon.

Merry Christmas


Well Christmas is here and i couldn't be more happy.  I hope everyone had a fabulous time opening gifts and watching gifts being opened.  It was a success as always at my house, and everyone seemed to enjoy their gifts.  I must say that my gifts were a huge success.  I got my dad some Ugg slippers, my mom a nice waffle iron, my nieces a Princess DVD, and my nephew grant a sweet pair of checkered Vans.  He looked so good! Im starting to get a little concerned with myself because I am beginning to enjoy watching people open the presents I get them more than I am receiving presents. Could I be growing up?  I hope not :)  
One of the highlights of this Christmas season was my brother Curt and his wife Kim's Christmas Mystery Dinner party. Everyone had a funny character and had to dress accordingly.  Then we all went around reading this funny script in a voice that matches our character.  If you couldn't tell from the picture I was the Rock King.  It was such a fun night with the highlight being my brother-in-law Todd's costume of a Biker Dude with my sisters tight pants on and a painted mustache.  
Well I hope everyone experience Christmas miracles and I will post more pictures of the special day later. 
Merry Christmas!!!

Life of the Party

Yes we unleashed the Train
The Gentlemen 

So i havent had much to update on recently and i apologize.  But just the other day i went to a wedding with a few friends of mine.  It was a real classy, top notch wedding.  Sit down dinner, speeches, and of course dancing.  I must say that of recent weddings i have been to my group of friends and i have become the life of these parties.  When the music started playing, michael jackson by the way, we did not miss a beat.  We were instantly on the hard wood floor laying some slick moves.  The only other people dancing were the bride and groom and some little kids.  I mean come on people.  Its a wedding, the celebration that tops all celebrations.  "Get up up on that dance floor give that man what he's asking for."  Thank you Nelly!  No we had a great time.  I love to dance, and while i know i probably look like a fool or someone with turrets i just cant help but cut a rug.  We really are clowns, but i think thats what makes a good party, someone to laugh with and laugh at.  Im comfortable enough to take wear both hats.
