Summa FUN!




The summer is winding down SOOO quick and it is killin me! For those of you who know me, I LOVE concerts.....of any kind! I dare anyone to find a funner date than a concert at usana ampitheater! Yesterday I went to the jack's manequin(spell?) and The Fray concert with Briana. I am not a huge fan of either band, I only really knew 2 songs but it was incredibly fun nonetheless. My buddies Devin Edmunds and Scott Gibson came with dates and we sat on the grass in the perfect summer night weather. I had a blast with Briana, she sang every word to every song and I just danced to it like I knew what was going on haha. A small (not so small) mosh pit formed out on the grass. At first we ignored it and then it got so huge we had to join for a few songs. We lifted Devin up onto the crowd to crowd surf and then we turned around and there was a line of about twenty girls just waiting for scott and I to lift them up onto the crowd. We were like "what, who made us the official crowd surfing lifters??" ha but it was fun. We had about a 2 hour drive getting there with all the traffic and all, so we listened to a little Brian Regan and Jerry Seinfeld in the car and almost wet ourselves with laughter! Afterwards we went to Iceburg and got a "mini" cone that took us 20 minutes to finish! I love summer because every night can be a night like this! Well I guess an update is in store. I moved out aa few weeks ago into a house in Sugarhouse. I live with my buddy Scott Gibson and it's been so much fun. I live in a space, not so much a room, but it's actually surprisingly comfortable. I have been working at ClearLink for a few weeks now as well. I sell Dishnetwork over the phone, it is pretty easy and I have been doing really well so far. Working full time again has been an adjustment, 9 hour work days is not all it's cracked up to be lemme tell ya. School is coming way too quick and then life is going to speed up again in all the bad ways. With a stats class and a medical anatomy class i should have my hands full!

Update


For those of you who care I thought I would do a little update on my life. It would seem, based on the overflowing number of comments I received on my previous bloggs, that I am writing to myself.......which is ok I guess!! I finally found a good place and I am moving out this week to a house in sugar house right down by campus and also right by the institute building where my ward meets! I will be moving in with my buddy Scott Gibson which will be so much fun. We are going to join an LDS fraternity at the U and hopefully meet alot of new people. I recently got hired on by Clearlink. I will be selling Dish Network and DIRECTV over the phone. I am looking forward to it because it pays awesome and it is a fast growing company! I have a few buddies who work there too and that always makes it better right? It is out by the airport and seems to be a pretty laid back atmosphere. I am looking forward to working full time again and living on my own. Living at home is great and all, I mean I love being so close to the family and all my siblings but a man just needs to spread his wings! I will miss going to the rec center with Quinn and Preston everyday though! I have been doing a lot this summer with my ward and it has been so much fun! I have a calling as an FHE advisor and we have been having some awesome acticities lately and people are actually coming! We had a water balloon volleyball/real volleyball/frisbee/human slingshot activity monday and had about 70 people show up. Last week we had country swing dancing lessons, it was a blast! Tonight we had ward temple night which is my absolute favorite. We typically have over 120 people show up for these nights and it is so wonderful going through a session with so many people you love and respect. I was sitting next to a friend who I have known since 7 grade and here we were doing something we had never done together, it was really cool. We decided after that we would go together to the temple atleast once a week. My Dad has recovered amazingly! He is still getting more and more energy back each day but he is back working full time and saving the ward one PPI at a time! He is back being his over active, goofy, task oriented dad that i've always known. Life is good, it has been a rough month for me but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! This next semester is going to be an intense one for me but I am excited for it! I will be taking an anatomy course and lab and a statistics class as well as a few others! I am looking forward to getting more into my major classes, and the scary thing is that I will need to be applying to PT school in a bout a year and a half or so.......wow! Life is flying by and I can't stop it. Anyways, I am sure that nobody will be reading this line because anyone who did decide to being reading has surely stopped reading by now! If not, i'm sorry! Hope you enjoyed hearing what is going on in my life!
