I always end up on here but never seem to update anything. Maybe I just don't know how to write out my thoughts very well, I'm not too sure.

I currently live in downtown salt lake which is great and also got a promotion as an assistant manager at Zumiez and live only 10 mins away which is great, however I feel like they sent me here to have me fail. There is so much going on like theft and so much stress I can't even being to talk about it and should make a different blog regarding it.

Also I am currently single.... It's hard to just getting use to being on my own again. And never sure what to do with all my free time... the time that I do have besides work. Just trying to fill it with positive things and keeping my head up.

I did go out to portland recently to go visit my friend and my sister I will see about posting pics on that trip, drank tons of beer cause I was up there during the portland beerfest. So much beer very delicious.

Oh and just a side note for all of you who don't know I brew my own beer (and would be happy to send some out if you ask me nicely enough )

Guess this is really just a quick over view about what has been going on. I could probably write pages but I'll spare you and myself from it.

For those of my awesome friends left on here (which are few in numbers..) I really wish we could catch up. I'll be lurking around abit here and there but I hope all is well in SG land. Also I was thinking about positing another video but not sure if anyone enjoyed the past ones.... so we'll see.

Thanks for all of those who care enough to actually read this and I appreciate the friendships that I have created threw the years of being on here.

Pretty much sums up my trip thus far

Im back from the dead!! haha

So whats been happening lately with myself lets see here... well I did get my old job back at Zumiez and thats been cool, I never realized how social I can be and how easy it is to talk to anyone about mostly anything. Who says you cant have a awesome conversation with random strangers trying to sell you some gear?

Im also hitting up Portland in March for my spring break from school (which is BADLY needed I assure you) I find myself being so stressed out and just loosing my train of thought in about everything. I feel like I'm getting burnt out in life in general .

Well I hope all you SG friends out there are doing awesome and I hope to speak to you soon

It's been a terrible week for me pretty much been vegging out on my couch waiting till things get better...

My Mother went to the hospital today on her gallbladder they took out 10 gallstones! My poor mother I haven't had a chance to talk to her because shes all knocked up on pain meds but I hope her a fast recovery <3

I have no idea what to get my friends for X-Mas and to be honest I'm happy this year is coming to an end its not really been a good one ether. Not to mention my B-day is coming up in less then a month and I'll be 26 on the 7th god how time has gone too quick.



On a lighter note I finished up my right arm sleeve!



It only took 8 years but its finally done!

I hope you all are having good holidays thus far and hope you a merry new year as well if I dont post before then

I got my own place and started summer semester, I never noticed how much stuff I DIDN'T have till I moved out... I don't really even have the net, I often get bored and lost in my own head. It's raining outside at the current moment and I'm not sure if its due to the light that's very dim in the room or just myself but I am starting to feel lonelier and lonelier. I sure hope I start to met new people around the area I live at cause other wise I'd end up a hermit and I really don't want that for myself. I have seen too many of my friends doing that and I'm too social to be stuck at one place for too long.

Yet ANOTHER trip outside of Utah this time hitting it up Denver style with my man Sean always love getting into crazy adventures with this crazy kid going to be a blast this weekend.



HAHA wow way old school pic
