My thoughts on a YouTube clip for My CSIS 1000 class
haha so pretty much for my CSIS 1000 class we're learning about blogs and having an intro to them and so for the assignment i have to create a blog post with a link to a youtube clip and write a short paragraph about it! YAY FOR ME!!! haha so this is it!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0X2R61u5p54
this music video is for one of A Day to Remember's softer songs. the Music Video is for the song Right Where You Want Me To Be. which, is a great song :) i love it a lot but the funny thing is that whenever society hears a little rage or deep emotion in a song (which can come in the forms of screaming or just a style of singing that sound like the vocalist is yelling) they get all offended and thing it's not right, which is messed up because all the artists are doing is writing with passion. they are talking about things near and dear to their heart, or things that are very emotionally trying etc. for them. say a break-up or the death of a loved one. they are just using tools and instruments to get their point across, as is demonstrated by this video
I'm Made Of Wax, Larry, What Are You Made Of?
these are the lyrics for it in case you want to read them while watching the video.
Don't blink,
They won't even miss you at all
And don't think,
That i'll always be gone
You know i've got you,
like a puppet in the palm of my hand,
don't you let me down
So run like hell,
sleep with one eye open
You can forgive or forget
You will tell everyone the damage done
Too bad you can't stop me
You can't stop me now
I'll be there just to watch you fall
So don't push me,
I've got nothing to lose
Don't blink,
They won't even miss you at all
And don't think,
That i'll always be gone
You know i've got you
like a puppet in the palm of my hand,
don't you let me down
There I go again,
I mean its so damn hard
to come back from the mess that you've made
*something* I told you so
Your a snake and I confess
Just use your head
I'll be there just to watch you fall
So don't push me,
I've got nothing to lose
Don't blink,
They won't even miss you at all
And don't think,
That i'll always be gone
You know i've got you
like a puppet in the palm of my hand,
don't you let me down
COME ON
oooooooooOOOHHH
*ahem*
Everybody's out to get me
Any moment could be my last
This is it,
You can take it or leave it
Will you run? I will stand on my own two feet
JUST BREATHE
JUST BREAATHHE
(x2)
Don't blink,
they won't even miss you at all
And don't think that i'll always be gone
You know i've got you
like a puppet in the palm of my hand,
don't you let me down
OH

The State of Mark Address
I'm doing really good :) i had a rejuvenating trip home to see my dad and old friends :) it was really good to see joel, scotty, roman, Bryan, and of course BRIANNA! haha sadly i don't think any of those people even read this, but o well.. haha i hung out with bryan and watched a movie then we went boarding the next day, which, he got a ticket on the way up the mountain, not fun. Now i'm back in cedar and i'm pretty happy, i got to snowboard all day today, i hit the park with my supervisor Jeremy and we had a pretty good time! i hit the rainbow box really good all day, the down box and landed two 3's but also crashed REALLY hard on another... then in the afternoon i just practiced on stopping my rotation so i can stop spinning when i hit the ground ;) haha it would probably be a good thing. my hair is getting longer and shall remain black. i rode home with some outrageous people haha and made a new friend Marissa, who is cool, lol and i dated her sister for like, an hour. hehehe... who doesn't love a good ole' temporary GF to tell the annoying stalker about?! haha. i am really craving some rice... i'll have to snap on that. at this point i really hate blogging because i don't have any pictures of my exploits to share! maybe i'll snag some photos of me boarding... haha that would be good stuff, but until then you readers will have to be content with my semi-meaningful ramblings ;) haha o! i played some intense speed scrabble over the weekend and had a good time of it! and i'm really psyched for emily to be going on a mission to Tacoma Washington!!!
One last thing, now that it's March the previous mentioned February Blues are gone. I'm Jolly and sadly... clean-shaven

Here it is, February and i'm thinkin to myself why have the Winter Blues never affected me before? and then it hit me, i have always had a HUGE support system. My Mom. No matter how hooligan status i was acting (or how sick i got) she has always been there for me, she's been my mom when i needed it, friend when i needed it, Bad Guy when i needed it (even tho sometimes i didn't think i needed it at that PARTICULAR time...) But overall my mom has pretty much rocked it up at her "job" hahaha and for that i would like to let her, and everyone else following my blog that i Love My Mom sooooooooooo much. Also in this i would like to extend this general sentiment to my sisters, dad, and close friends. haha if you're not on my speed dial, well that's tough ;) haha jk. you know who you are. anyways that wasn't really what i was planning on posting... but it kinda went along with my planned complaining.
This winter is going pretty well but it's causin' some wear n' tear to go down. i'm happy and healthy (despite the semi-constant pain in my knee) i've been working as a snowboard instructor at Brian Head for about two months now and i'm loving it, it's really harsh some days but it's just so rewarding that i can't get enough, plus i'm getting to board 3-4 times a week, how good can it get? but i'm also going to school 3 times a week so it's pretty tiring. This is having an adverse on my social life, haha cuz i'm just so pooped at the end of the day that i just don't feel too social, haha so i sit at home and do basically do nothing, lol don't hang out much, don't really do much of anything besides listen to music, work, and go to school.
wish i could update you more, but there isn't much to say other than what's between the lines... haha and it's between the lines for a reason ;)
i dyed my hair black
it looks amazing by the way
my hair was short for the last two months but is growing back :)
My musical tastes are adapting
i'm a huge fan of chili based foods (mac n cheese n chili, chili and rice, and burritos)
Heist and i are still hooligans but we're tired hooligans
Love life is pretty lame
sleepy
thinking about permanently having my hair black. yea, it's that good
going to bed! bye all!
