Hockey players rule. I went and saw an Austin Ice Bats game a few nights ago. I've been 4 or 5 times now and they just keep getting better and better. I think for you to earn a spot on the Ice Bats team, you have to be a good fighter. They don't really care about scoring goals, or your skating ability, you just have to be able to fight. There were many fights throughout the game, with one starting as soon as the puck hit the ice. No actual hockey had been played and they were already fighting. I don't get this. How did this happen? Did they get in an argument off the ice and say, "Wait a second!! Let's settle this on the ice!" It was awesome. Which brings me to my next point. Hockey fans are awesome. They care more about the fighting than the game itself. The audience applauds fights. When I was at the game I couldn't help but join in and encourage more fighting. If you haven't been to a hockey game, I suggest you come to Austin and me and you go to an Ice Bats game. I have decided that I would rather see a hockey game than a football game. It's just better. The fans, the fighting, and the music. aaawww man, the music. Here are just a few that were played at the game: Various Ludacris, AC/DC, Blur, and many more. I love goin to hockey games.

Oh yeah, one more thing. Do not call my cell phone. My mom has it and she doesn't want to talk to you.

DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE LORD OF THE RINGS OR.... IF YOU'RE A CRAPHEAD.
******************************************************************************

Ok, so, I went and saw the newest Lord of the Rings. Let me start off by saying that I thought this was an excellent movie and extremely well made. But, I feel that there were 4 things that just bugged the crap out of me. Here they are:

1. You knew this one was coming: Length. Dear God. 3 and a half hours. Seriously. There is no need for a movie to be that long. And if it is, just make it two seperate movies. Also, There are parts that do not really need to be in there.

2. Homosexuality. I have nothing against homosexuals, and I'm not a homophobe or anything (just look at my close homosexual friend Kyle), I just thought that if characters in the movie were homosexual, they should have come right out and said it. You can not tell me that you didn't think some hobbits were going to kiss in that movie.

3. It ends like four times. I did not appreciate the way the screen faded to black about four different times near the end of the movie. Seriously, after sitting in the movie theater that long, I was on the edge of my seat, cause I wanted out. I cringed every time I realized that the movie wasn't over.

4. Frodo is going out to sea??? What??? Why?? Actually wait.... I don't really care. I do not want to discuss this movie anymore.

Now, before you comment, understand that I really don't give a crap if you disagree.

So I wore shorts today. Way to go Texas!! I went out to do some Christmas shopping today, and didn't really get much done. I went out around lunch time, and I was planning on pickin up some lunch. What was the first place that popped into my head??? Chick-fil-a!!!!! Hooray!!!! I love Chick-fil-a!!!! I could really go for some Chick-fil-a!!!!!! Wait. Crap. Sunday. Crap. Chick-fil-a's not open on Sunday. Why is it that whenever I get in the mood for some good ol' Chick-fil-a, it lands on a Sunday? Oh well, what are you gonna do? I ended up eatin some pretty good Villa Pizza from the mall. Later, I went and saw The Last Samurai with Billy and Big Blue. Good movie, I recommend it. Also, I almost forgot about the incredible new video from The Darkness. Go to: http://www.thedarknessrock.com/video/ and watch the new Christmas video. Simply amazing. That's all, I'm goin to bed.

For those of you who don't know, that right there is a REAL hummer. Nowadays, all you ever see are these pieces of crap:


Now it's not that these new hummer's are so crappy, it's just that they are everywhere. I swear, every day that I drive somewhere in Austin, I see at least two or three of things. The thing that was great about the original hummer is that you didn't see everyone driving it. It was reserved for men who have a lot of money and like to drive over smaller objects. I saw a nice, little, middle-aged soccer mom driving one of those H2 pieces of crap. What are you doing???!!?!? Get outta there!! Go drive a minivan!!! Or a suburban!!! Well, all I can say is that Hummer has officially ruined the Hummer and it's name.

You know, leaves are cool until you come home from college and your parents tell you to go outside and fish em out of the pool for a couple hours. I don't really mind helpin my parents out a little bit, but seriously give me a break. I just got home, and all I've been doin is this kinda crap. I replaced all the hinges on the doors in my house. That may not seem like a lot, but it is. I cleaned the pool, took my dad all over town, and went to the doctor. I went to the doctor to find out that I have to get wisdom teeth taken out. Excellent. Jan 2. Can't wait. OH and the worst of all is: my dad made me peel him an orange! He's apparently allergic to the juice that squirts out when you peel the skin. Don't ask me, my Dad's seriously allergic to everything. If you don't understand why I don't like peeling oranges read about 4 posts down, and you'll understand. It's just nuts cause I've been home for less than 24 hours. I thought that I could just come home and sit on the couch and watch t.v. and hang out with my friends all day. Nope. This kinda crap makes me want to just pack up and head back to Waco. A good thing is that I made $160 on the books I sold back before I left Waco. Also, on the drive to Austin, I thought about a lot of stuff. Sometimes life is just moving so fast that you don't have time to just think. It was really nice to just sort crap out and make sure that I know what I'm doing is right.

Goin home to Austin tomorrow. It'll be nice, cause I really gotta get out of crappy Waco for a little bit. I went to the library to study tonight and it was crazy. All the normal people finished their finals today, but I didn't. I didn't want to take 3 finals on Monday, so I have to take my last final the day after everyone else finishes. Anyways, I went to library just thinkin I'd have some nice little quite time. I drove over there and the parking lot was empty except for 2 or 3 other cars. I started thinking that maybe the library was closed, but I was wrong. The library was empty as crap. Never had I seen it so empty. It was kinda eerie. I don't know where I'm goin with this, so I'll just change the subject. Toooo.. another library!! I suggest you check out the Armstrong Browning Library. Yes, even if you don't go to Baylor. Me, matt, and derek went a while back, and it was amazing. There's a bunch of cool stained glass windows and it just makes you feel like Baylor has money to burn... The picture above is from this library, but it's kinda a crappy picture. That's it for now.

New!!!! Hamburger Blog!!!!!! Check it!!!!!

So I added a new feature to my blog. You may have noticed it when you opened this amazing little blog. Every time you come to my page, you get a cool little effect.

SOoooooooooooooooo, it's been awhile. Let me just start off saying that there has been a lot goin on lately. Rachel and I are no longer together. If you would like to know more, you know where to find me. It has been a pretty rough time, and it's something that I've never really had to deal with before. I would like to say thank you to all my friends and family that were there for me this past week or so. A special thanks to Derek, because he has really been there for me if I needed to talk, hang out, or just do something, and I greatly appreciate all of the help that he has offered. Also, in case you didn't know, it's finals time and that means I gotta study.

Ok. Now. Let's talk about the weather. I have something to say about Texas Winters: They suck. It was hot earlier in the month. DECEMBER!!! HOT!!! Where I'm from, if you say those two words in the same sentence, you get shot. Also, I'm not really expecting some snow. Snow in Texas is a phenomenon. When it happens, people freak out. They stay home from work, and everyone is just happy and playing in the 2 inches of snow. In the North, people hate snow. It snows there, and people look out their window and say, "Crap!!! Snow!!! I gotta go to work in this crap!!!!" And they go to work. Done. No more weather talk.

One thing I was thinking about that would just make my life maybe... 1.02 times better is.. if oranges came pre-peeled. I seriously would eat oranges all day if they were just ready to eat. But no, you have to get that orange crap in your fingernails and get that sticky, misty juice stuff all over your hand. Don't get me wrong here, oranges are awesome and I eat them quite frequently. That's just my thoughts on how to improve oranges. Well, that's all for now kids.

And the awkward situation award for today goes to... Sergio. Sergio's a good guy and all, but today he just blew my mind. Here we go: So I'm makin my way out of the business school, not expecting anything, and BAM!!! Sergio!! It's kinda weird, because I've seen this guy 3 or 4 times now in the business school, and every single time it is in the exact same spot. Anyways, back to the awkward award. I see him, he sees me, we acknowledge each other, and he decides to seal the deal with a handshake. But wait.... what the crap is he doing???? The LEFT hand???? What??!??! Why??? NO!! I examine his right hand, because there must be something restricting it from it's daily duties. NOPE!! Nothing keeping the right hand busy or even distracted. There was nothing wrong with his right hand from what I could gather. I stare at him and wonder if maybe he's goin for a low high-five... nooo he was definitely angled for a firm left handed handshake. So I give in to his crazy, fresh, new, stupidity and give him a handshake. Nothing was said of it. I was just disgusted. If there is something wrong with the right hand, then just bypass the handshake altogether. I really don't want your awkward left handed handshake. I won't be offended, I promise.

Other than that, things have been goin good, and Thanksgiving was mighty fine.
