well this whole xanga thing is a bit overrated...I really
held out on how much I liked this thing, but I'm beginning to sell out to
MySpace along with pretty much everyone else...this is good for getting some
much needed venting time out into words, but MySpace is much more effective in
communicating with other people...I don't know why, but it is...actually I
think Facebook is much better than both of these, but I guess just leave me a
comment to say hey, or just to give your opinion on all the online blog
sites...later...

Merry Christmas!!!
I had a boring Christmas this year with rather lame gifts, but what can you ask
for when you don't tell anyone what you want... My mom actually did really good
on gifts this year, which is an absolute miracle, cause I didn't actually get
toys again like I usually get on my birthday from her... My grandmother who
usually does the best on gifts didn’t do well at all, but I'm just thankful
that I got to spend another Christmas, and another year with her... I went to
my dad's house on Christmas Eve... I expect crappy gifts from my dad and my
grandmal, it's just what they do... But it kind of got a little emotional with
my dad still trying to recover from his recent heart attack, and his cataract surgery...
I truly am thankful I got to spend Christmas Eve with him, cause he really
doesn't look like he will make it much longer... Anyways I hope all y'all's
Christmas' went as well as y'all could've hoped, and I hope y'all got
everything you wanted for Christmas and more...
The weeks leading up to Christmas have been great... I've been in Dallas for a while, and
If you're wondering where the background image came from, my friend Christian
and I rode the DART rail trains to Downtown Dallas and he took pictures with
his brand new camera... The pictures are amazing, and if you want to check them
out go to his website (http://katana.radicand.org/profile/christianvs) and
check them out... The ones he took with the new camera are in the two groups
"D-Town," and "Random Pics #2"... The best pictures in my
opinion are the skyline pictures and the picture of the "Lounge"...
Anyways, I will be back in Dallas by Tuesday, so if anyone wants to hang out or
go do something just give me a call, cause I'll be sitting around bored most of
the time I'm down there... and if anyone knows of any good New Years parties,
please give me a call and let me know about it... Well I guess that should be
about it for now so I will just talk to y'all later....

| Well, first semester is about to come to a close...It was a breeze with
lots of drama, and some good times to go along with that...hopefully I
will begin to settle in to this school as soon as I get back from the
break...It's exam time which is my favorite time of the year, not
really...I got lucky in the case that I only have 4 finals and I have
them spreadout from Monday night through Thursday morning...I will be
going down to Dallas on Thursday morning/afternoon, so if ya'll want to
hang out call my cell 214-577-6760...otherwise I prolly won't think
twice about it...I'm really excited to be going back to Dallas cause
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday there is supposed to be freezing
rain/freezing drizzle/sleet/snow...so that should make for some good
times...the thing that sucked though for us was that the whole storm
last week just scooted to the side of us...jsut north of here they got
like 4 inches and 15 miles east of here in duncan they got like 3
1/2...and we got light sleet for like 5 mins...I hear all yall in
Dallas got out of school for that snow storm yall had, and I just want
yall to know that I'm completely jealous of yall for that...ok well
it's off to find some food before I go to my night class and try to
take this Psychology exam...good luck to everyone else going into exam
week, and I hope yall all do wonderful

| Well Thanksgiving was a lot of fun...the only thing that
wasn't fun was all the times my cousin Matt was annoying...but it was great to
see everyone again...we had a bunch of food and ate almost everything cooked
(which is rare)...it was probably one of the best hams my grandmother has ever
cooked, and the turkey was awesome as usual...after the whole Thanksgiving
feast we all went into the game room and looked at slides...yes I said slides
(the thing we had before what we know as pictures now days...It was great to
see my mom, aunt, and uncles when they were kids...we probably looked at a few
hundred slides
Then Black Friday...talk about annoying....I tried to go to Wal-Mart cause they
advertised a laptop computer for $388...well they were out, so it wasn't too
much disappointment...then to Office Depot where they had one advertised for
$344...it was supposed to be a two day sale, but since demand was so high the
company that was building the laptops stopped taking orders so it was more like
a 5 hour sale
Then we took everyone back to the airport in Oklahoma City...Everyone rode with
my uncle but since there wasn't any more room I rode with my aunt and her
dog...so much fun...*sarcasm*...that car was a good 3000 miles over the oil
change and was making some very very weird noises...so after my uncle dropped
everyone off at the airport I switched over to his car with him and my
grandmother and we went out to eat...I now have a new favorite restaurant...Texas
Roadhouse is awesome for the sheer fact that their steaks are very reasonably
priced and the proportions are good sized and they give you a huge bucket of
peanuts and you crack the shell eat 'em and throw the shells straight on the
floor...I really enjoyed that and probably killed my blood pressure with all
the salt on those dang peanuts, but it was fun
Then Saturday...if you know me at all you know where I was on Saturday and it
was awesome...Bedlam's 100th meeting lived up to the hype as OU got out to a
great early lead with some good offense and stellar defense...other than a 56
yard pass on a great scramble by pena (OSU's quarterback)...OSU only gained
like 8 yards in the first half...well most of OSU's points if not all can be
directly attributed to horrendous calls by the ref's, but what isn't normal
about a ref killing a game for OU this year...I wouldn’t expect anything
less...well second and third quarters were a waste as are the usual two
quarters of a game OU usually squanders (other than an awesome 84 yard run by
Peterson in the third quarter)...other than that 84 yarder Peterson ran a 71
yarder to the house in the fourth quarter two drives after the first one...so
that was two one play drives that Peterson ran to the house...so he now has a
record for being the only OU running back to amass more than 200 yards in a
half...so thanks to Peterson and probably Bomar's best outing of the year, OU
trampled the pokes to add another win to the most lopsided in-state rivalry in
college football (77-16-7)...I'd say that’s a good record to have as an OU
fan...and I guess that really puts it into perspective if you're a poke fan
Well that's about all I'm going to say for now, but I hope everyone had a
wonderful Thanksgiving and I hope you are all full of turkey and all the other
festive foods, and hopefully this break will hold us all over till Christmas
break which is only a few weeks away... | | |
| well...Im bored sitting here at my grandmothers house...school is jsut about over for the week...I got one more class and one hour of work to do today...then the weekend is here...Thanksgiving break is a joke...we only get wed-fri off, so we still have to go to school on mon-tue which I think is silly, but what can you do...well anyways I need to get headed off to class so I guess I will talk to yall later | | |
