LATELY

Hello all my many blog followers.......well, hello chase and Leah! I figured it's pointless to have a blog unless it is updated every so often. I have been extreemely busy lately which I couldn't say for the few months prior to this one! School is winding down and work is winding up more and more each day! Right now it's a struggle for brain power between work and school, work is winning ever so slightly but school is making a comeback. My team and I are set to leave to Eugene Oregon in a little over a month, and are we ready? We are getting there fast, my team is gonna be awesome and we are all getting some great knocking experience right now! We are going out every saturday for about 6 hours and also whenever we can throughout the week. I try to get out atleast 3 times a week besides my saturday blitzes. I am really enjoying being a part of this company, it feels really good to invest so much in something and see it invest that much back into you. That is why I really love NOK. There was recently an incentive set for all the managers, the first manager to recruit three new guys for his team (solid guys) would be rewarded with a brand new cell phone of their choice paid for by the company, as well as the first three months paid for. And the winner was....yours truly! I'm excited to enter the world of the iPhone, where all my wildest dreams can and will come true, I hear that thing can fly?!?!? I have some great guys coming with me, some of my best friends from high school and some of my good friends that I have made post highschool and mission. I love the product too, which is important because I would not sell (could not sell) anything that did not excite me. That has been my life for the past 3 weeks, I have gone strait from school to work and then home for homework and bed everyday over that time period. As for my dating life....yea now the blog entry finally gets interesting right? WRONG....haha. My dating life right now is sitting pretty at number 4 on my list of priorities. Meaning that it is getting no attention from me at the moment, which is extremely nice! I had to take my own financial measures during this recession right? It had to be done. This weather as of late is absolutely a joke. I was born and raised in utah and this blows even my mind, it is such a tease. 70 degrees one day, blizzard the next day, what is with that? I have come to one astounding conclussion, that Utah weather and Utah girls are one in the same, just a big tease! I will stick with trying to predict what the weather might do next, because heaven knows i will never predict what a woman might do. That's all folks!

California Dreamin'

Hello all! I have been a blog slacker lately, actually I have been spoiling myself for the past week and a half over my much needed spring break! As you can probably guess from the title of this blog I recently spent some time in Cali. I was lucky enough to get invited to an extremely nice and perfectly located beach house in oceanside. We had a group of 14 in the house, it made for some interesting times! We were at most 30 feet off the beach and boy did we take advantage of that! I loved riding the cruisers (bikes) down the beach, goin for runs on the beach, longboarding, playing sports on the beach, bon fires on the beach.....ahhhhh it was great. We even found a little oceanside ward on sunday, and what do you know I met a guy whom I knew (the church sure makes it a small world!) The week was perfect, march madness had just begun and the conference championships were going on and we had couple 52 inch flat screens in the house and oh boy did we veg out and watch every game we could, and yes my Dukies won the ACC and are on a roll in the tourney! I got some sun, and some sand....everywhere. It's such a funny experience going to the beach because i'm not quite sure yet just how to get all the sand off of me the first try...here I am like 4 days later and i'm still finding sand on me! So...right now I am back at home trying to pull my head out of the california clouds (wait...there were no clouds, just sun!) and tryin to get some work done as well! I am way excited for summer to be here and school to finally be over! I am way stoked to be heading to oregon for work this summer. I am going to be managing a sales team for Nok Inc. One more month or so of school might kill me, so I hope I do actually live to make it to oregon. Life is getting way way busy and hectic right now but I love it, this is where I thrive! That's all in my life right now!

LIFE

As the title of my blog states, my life really isn't THAT interesting! I am currently in the process of job hunting, which is a wonderful experience considering that 99% of the world's businesses are downsizing....not hiring! I have only applied to one place and have not heard anything yet, so the search goes on! School has quickly passed the mid term point and is getting ready to wind down, yyyeeeaaaahhh! This semester has been by far the most brutal, lonely, dragged out of all. The U is not wha I expected at all. It is a great University, has great students, great academics and athletics but NO SOCIAL LIFE!! It is hard going from UVU aka social networking headquarters of the world.....to the U. Life is about dealing with changes though right? So, I am getting by and getting more and more used to life in Salt Lake again. My classes are fun, I finally started taking classes (class) more specific to my major which is Excercise and Sports Science. I am enrolled in an emergencey first-aid class which has rocked and been really fun! I have a lab once a week for it and I have learned the art of saving lives one method at a time, but please don't try me on that. I am really enjoying the institute program at the U, it has been awesome this semester. I am currently in a class called "The enabling power of Christ" taught by Brother Frogley. It has taught me alot about the Atonement and has been a good outlet for a little bit of socialness. The ward up here is great too, it is a tight knit group of people and they are all from bountiful or north salt lake so I even recognize some faces! I am definitely in a different phase of my life than I was the first year after returning home from the mission, I guess it's what they call growing up! I have really had a feeling of urgency in my life lately, I know there are so many important things I need to be doing now to help build the future that I foresee for myself. I am trying not to let this feeling take me from the "now" portion of my life though, I understand that my college days, although they seem endless, will be very few in the grande scheme of things! I am grateful for the life I have been blessed with and mostly the wonderful friends and family I have been given! I love you all!
