Halloweenie

I just had to make that my title haha I'm so excited that halloween is finally here! This weekend is going to be utterly insane and fun. Saturday is our homecoming game and we are playing Oregon. They are #1 in the nation and I really hope we kick their asses. Then later that night I'm going to HARD Haunted. It's pretty much the dopest thing ever (well dopest thing that night haha) On Sunday, a big group of my friends and I are going to West Hollywood (gayest city in the world haha) for the halloween carnival. Now it's not really a carnival, it's more of a HUGE street party where they shut down the streets and 500,000 people party all night. It shall be quite a good time!

No I'm not dressing up as a cop, I definitely couldn't pull that off, but I'm going as a panda!!! I'll make sure to take a picture and post it on Sunday. I went to a SF Giants baseball game a few weeks ago and got a panda hat so I'll wear that with a black and white shirt. My friend wore my hat to a party and got laid so hopefully I can have somewhat of the same luck haha

Anyways, I think I fractured my leg so I have to pull out of my half-marathon next week. I'm really pissed because I've been training since the beginning of summer. I'll probably just start lifting again since I can't put any pressure on my leg for a while.

Instead of a song choice, everyone should watch Rocky Horror Picture Show. They are attempting to do the largest Time Warp dance in WeHo on Sunday and I had to watch the movie again because it's pretty much awesome. Plus they did it on Glee yesterday and I loooooove that show.

Back

Sorry it's been a week since my last post. My computer screen broke on Monday and I went home to Utah on Wednesday so I haven't been able to even be on the internet all week (thank goodness for iPhones haha) but yeah. Today kinda sucked. I woke up and my Dad's car windown was smashed and my bag was stolen with my passport and social security card in it. (I really liked that bag!) Then my flight got delayed 3 hours and I had to get angry at the Apple guy to fix my computer like he said he would. But now I'm back in LA and ready to have a good week.

Nothing thrilling happened at home besides my Mom's wedding but I was reminded the whole trip how closed minded people are. It kinda made me sad.

OK I'm off to bed now. I'm going to do a better post tomorrow so stay tuned!

Naps

The title says it all: naps. I love naps and I love cuddling even more. We had a football game today and it was incredibly boring so I left at halftime. After a delicious lunch at Chipotle, it was nap time. It was simply fantastic! Seriously, I dare anyone to find something better than curling up with a guy and sleeping for an hour or two.

Anyways, I'm doing the AIDS Walk tomorrow so that'll be pretty cool. I'm doing a photo project where I take pictures of people and crop out their heads because I want to show their personalities through their clothing/body language, not their faces. I think it'll be pretty cool but hopefully people won't think I'm a weirdo at the walk tomorrow! haha

I've got a post suggestion about my coming out story so I'm going to write that soon but I'd love some more suggestions. I write about such random things but I'd really like to hear what you guys would like to read! Also, keep asking questions on my Formspring. I enjoy reading and answering your questions.

This song reminds me of driving along the coast. I love doing that. Enjoy

Birthdays and such

OK so I'm not doing this to glean praise (not the right word but whatever) but today is my 21st birthday. I'm definitely drinking tonight with friends, $3 margaritas!, and all that other stuff but I realized that I need to make a few changes with myself. Nothing big, just some adjustments so that I can get what I really want out of life.

First, I need to be less shy. I've mentioned it many times before but I'm really freaking shy when it comes to talking to new guys that I think are cute. I usually avoid them so much that they end up thinking I'm really rude, which isn't the case (at least I hope not) So starting today, I'm going to be more confident and go after what I want. Again not to gloat, but I think I'm a pretty good  looking dude that has some good stuff to offer. I just need to put myself out there and get some reactions. I'm a big believer that rejection helps you grow so when I do get shot down, it'll just make me a better person.

Second, I really, really need to not procrastinate so much! I've actually gotten much better this year but I'd still like to get my stuff done at least 2 days before it's due. It's too stressful to worry about getting things done so I'd rather get them done early and enjoy the extra time.

These are pretty much the two things I want to work on for right now. Like I said, it's not much but it's something I can handle and will make an immediate impact on life.

Well I'm off to take a nap then it's margarita time with some friends!

All I Do Is Win by DJ Khaled

This was our theme song for the weekend in San Francisco. We play it at our football games and it's pretty awesome when everybody throws their hands up at the same time. I usually don't like this kind of music but it was an amazing weekend that I want to remember for a long time!

Done

I'm finally done for the week! No more test, class or papers. I'm leaving for San Francisco tomorrow and can't wait! OK well besides this update, I figured I would do a random "get to know me" post, so here it goes...

1. I hate being drunk. I like drinking, I just hate that feeling after you've drank too much and you get the spins. No good. Buzzed is so much better.

2. I am addicted to sour candy. Any kind, anywhere, any time. Love it all and it's definitely bad for my teeth but it's beyond delicious.

3. I'm not a big fan of random hook ups. They're so empty. Knowing the guy is at least 458 times better. Maybe even better than that.

4. Fall is my favorite season. Hands down.

5. I like clean cut guys. Kissing scruff isn't my favorite, although it can be a major turn on with some guys.

6. My favorite thing about a guy: his smile. Take care of your teeth yo!

7. I'm a cheese connoisseur.

8. Margaritas are fantastic!

9. I'm addicted to my phone.

10. I like to cuddle.

Wet

So it rained today, and by rain I mean a heavy sprinkle. Seriously, when it rains here nobody leaves their rooms. Campus was dead today. I actually love fall weather (I love a guy in jeans and a hoodie) but this weather is driving me nuts! It was record temps last monday and now it's 50 degrees cooler and rainy. It makes me want to watch a movie and cuddle haha if only I had a guy and no tests or papers! This weekend can't come soon enough. Back to studying

Hard as Nails by Peter Wolf Crier

Rainy day music. Perfect for this week.

Sunday Funday

My messy library desk

Sunday at the library, one of my favorite past times. Not! I actually get a lot of work done when I'm here, it's just so sterile and smells of some nasty b.o.! None the less, I'm stuck here all day. I've also determined that before I graduate, I'm going to hook-up (preferably with a boyfriend) in the library haha We have two main libraries at school and one has 9 floors of bookshelves where nobody ever goes. Perfect place! Now all I need is that someone haha Anyways, time to get back to work. Have a good rest of the weekend

Happy Oktober

It's finally freaking October and thus my favorite month of the year. All the news this past week about the gay teen suicides made me really think just how sad our country is. Plus that Michigan attorney general that is stalking the University of Michigan's student gov. president, it's just stupid.

Anyways, this week kinda sucked. Lots of crap but it's the weekend now so it'll be fun. It's parents weekend at school so there are thousands of parents on campus, which is just weird, but it makes me want my mom to visit. I didn't ask her to come down cause her wedding is in two weeks and that's just too much to handle. But ya party tonight and football game tomorrow, tailgating all day of course! I really need to study for a test and write a paper this weekend so maybe I'll get up early tomorrow and go to the library.

Love this song, enjoy the weekend!
