Laptop March 28th or something.

-I finally got my laptop! It arrived exactly as the seller said it would be like. The screen woule turn off every time it was moved. After using the laptop for 20 minutes I went to my piano lesson and then after dinner the laptop got opened. So far this is my fourth laptop I’ve taken apart and this is the 2nd I’ve fixed. The first was broken and I had no chance of fixing it. The second I had to replace a part and re-sold it. The third I took apart for the fun of it. It was never broken, and now this one. I took it apart and worked on it for about 1 or 2 hours and eventually I fixed it. The laptop now runs great and the screen is fine. I’m finishing installing programs I need and then it’s gonna be good. It’s not the quickest thing out there but it is very decent for $200. Actually it is EXCELLENT for $200. Anyway I should go now. Not that you really care about this laptop but still I like to talk about it. See you later!

Movie Night 22 Mar 2006

-Hey my youth group is having a movie night on April 4th. We haven’t decided what movie yet but it will be fun. You should all come. It will be awesome. Most likely there will be very few people there. Probably 7 at the most plus whoever else we get to come. So you are all invited and should come.

Life is GREAT 8 Mar 2006

-Haha, right now life rocks! I am finally home no more charlie Brown. YES THAT MEANS I CAN UPDATE THINGS! Currently I am sitting in front of 2 computers and running dual monitors! It is sooooo cool! Anyways thats cool cause I get to fix another computer. So yeah. Life is going swell. Youth group is taking off, it has grown from 4 people (2 of which were Riley and I) to 7! Yeah it doens’t seem huge but it’s great! Oh oh! April 19th COME TO OUR youth group! It is going to be our first “preview service” for youth group. Officially its for middle schoolers, but high schoolers can come and help! It’s so much fun! Oh so 2 dates to remember!
-March 27th (Golden Skate party)
-April 19th (preview service)

For Golden skate its an all church event and I think they are renting the entire place! It’s only $2 per person and it will rock! So everybody come. I know I will be there! Anyways I really don’t have much to say. Life is pretty boring yet awesome! Currently I am saving up to upgrade my computer! I could go into how the processor I’m getting is worth it compared to the supposedly better one because of it’s architecture but I won’t cause that would bore you. Anyway see you all later!

Good, no why not great? 23 Feb 2006

-Well Katie understands that. Yes life is good, not great currently. Actually it is great RIGHT NOW. Though tomorrow will probably not be so great. Not all day anyway. Charlie Brown is going well. Just well not great. I think it lacks emotion and energy. We all do ok, but I think we could have done a LOT better. Jessen just lacked some of the key elements of a great directer. So yeah I think we could have and should have added and changed a lot. Hopefully it gets better.
DYC was really fun. It started kinda bad, it was kinda “oh we are trying to make you laugh” and not indepth, but that changed! The classes we went to were very good! I learned some great things and got to know Josh, Carlton, Brian Kilde and Brad a lot better!
I finally got my computer up and running! So now I can play Battlefield 2, though I never will cause I’m not a gamer. But still I got my Hard Drive to it’s full potential size finally and my graphics card I overclocked and made way cooler! Especially since I got a new one, ha! Yes but now I can finally do all the great things I always wanted to do……or I can at least check email again and go on AIM. Oh so yeah if I haven’t replied to an email, then sorry I’m getting to it!

BYE BYE!

2 Weeks 24 Jan 2006

-Ok that was crazy cool. I went almost 2 whole weeks without touching the computer. I started Monday the 9th and just got on today. I did have to check my email once, because someone from church was emailing me a script and Saturday I made an exception when trying to contact people to go to Golden Skate. Other than that I didn’t touch it and the extra day was because I of those times. It was pretty crazy not using it, but it really was rewarding. In the meantime a lot has happened. First and foremost I broke my arm. This time I was snowboarding. There has also been more crazyness about Winter Formal and who likes who at school. On the plus side our core team mettings for youth group are going great. I also got the cables for my Mp3 player and it’s cool. And last Saturday I got a bunch of friends together to go to Golden Skate. That was really fun, it was Alex, Amanda, Hannah, Kaitlynn, Ryan, Jeffrey, Matthew and me. I had my science final today which I don’t think I did very good on, but who knows. Church is going great! My dad preached on Sunday. Go to http://www.compassvancouver.org/category/audio/ to download an Mp3 of it. Or it should be there soon. I also have been having a great time helping in the Nursery on Sundays. Youth Group is going great, at the core meetings we get a lot done, even though there aren’t many people. Brian Kilde is a very great and organized youth leader. We are going to DYC February 17-20 I believe and Josh Gilman is coming with me. THat will be lots of fun! The only downside about the youth group right now is that it is very small. We are still praying though and I think God will be doing great things with it. God certainly is amazing. I have been doing devotions, talking and praying daily. NOw when I say daily I mean DAILY! Not every once in a while or 3 days on then skip a few days then play catch up. I mean every day at the same time I read the bible and do devotions. SOmetimes I even do it twice a day. I really think it’s amazing and I am loving it! Well I do have some homework and should go. See you all later! I’ll be praying for ya’ll!

hmm grant, what’s your last name? and if you don’t go to skyviwew, where do you go? oh, there is no party…

Pickles? Charlie Brown? Movies? Cat Soup? Lost yet? 09 Jan 2006

-Ok well life has been very interesting. A lot is going on and I don’t know half of it. It seems everything is revolving around me, but no one tells me what it is. There’s something about a Pickle, and a lot about me that I don’t know. Then there is the busy schedule. Monday, Wednesday and Friday is Charlie Brown Rehearsal. Tuesday is youth group meetings. Thursday is Piano lesson. I mean it’s crazy. Then there is the movies, Ice Cream Renissiance and DQ. Basically I’ve gone with different people to movies and Ice Cream places a lot lately. We’ve watched “What’s Up Doc” at my house, gone to King Kong and Narnia. Eaten at Ice Cream Renissiance once or twice, we also went to Dairy Queen before Narnia. We also went to my house and played Apples to Apples once. It was all awesome. Let’s see if I remember who went to them. Spencer, Jeffery, Jacob, Ryan, Katie, Kaitlynn, Matthew, Mary, Emily, Stephanie, Christina, Merideth, Hannah, who else there has to be more. No I can’t think of more. If I forgot you then mention it to me. Anyway, they all rocked. Narnia was good but they should have never put in the scene of riding down on the ice, and the voice of the lion bugged me. King Kong was way way cool except for some scenes that went way to long. “What’s up Doc” rocked! Everyone seemed to love it an no one had seen it, except me, so that was good. Apples to Apples was fun and Dairy Queen, and as always Ice Cream Renissiance was very interesting and I learned lot’s of new stuff. Cat Soup none of you will get… no wait, Alex might and depending on who else goes here. Well that’s about all for now. If you want to clue me in on anything please do! Talk to you later. Oh and just so you all know I’m planning on not using my computer for 2 weeks so don’t expect replys to emails, or to talk to me on AIM. Adios! Oh! Wait……tomorrow night is the first night of our core meeting for our church youth group! We are starting a new one at my church Compass, and we are having the first meeting so you should all come, if not just to throw in your ideas and help make my youth group better! Or to just be there so we have some people! Talk to me about it if you want. See ya!

Clean Post 31 Dec 2005

-Wow, I decided since all that junk was in the title for the last post I would just start a whole new clean post, with another unoriginal title. So this past 21 days I think it is have been extremely fun and interesting. To start off with I got back from Mexico which was lots of fun. I still haven’t posted pictures from that, being strange like I am. Gettting back was great cause I got to see friends, but teachers gave me lots of homework. i started that but next thing you know, it’s the Christmas season and I’m in Spokane for a Christmas Celebration. That’s were I got the super cool shirt that says “Don’t be jealous that I’ve been chatting online with babes all day” from Napolean Dynamite. So we headed home from that and guess what, BROUGHT THE SNOW WITH US!!! For a day at least, I’m sure you can remember the day were it snowed and they closed down half the rodes in Portland. Yeah well guess what, our 5 hour car ride there, turned into 8 hours on the way back. Not so fun. Anyway we eventually got home. THen the next week was Christmas!!! YEAH!!! I got lots of cool things, but I won’t go into explanation, just say that I really liked them. The next day was like the week before work. See this lady that my mom new owns a tile shop so she gets loads of tile and needs people to carry it in. So she “hired” me and my older brother to do it, since we had helped her before and she liked our work. So Monday I did that, and made money along with Tuesday. I also forgot to mention that I babysat twice for a Bible Study and made money then. So after work Tuesday I went to my Grandma and Grandpa’s house to spend the night, Riley also came and my cousin was there. It was lots of fun, we played games and ate lots of food. They next morning we went shopping and I got lots of stuff, I even bought a Ninja Sword and bow and arrow. Haha, $1 for each, it made me feel like a kid again. Mcdonalds. That was our next stop!!! Wow I have not eaten there in forever! It also made me feel like a kid, and sick. Then up till today I worked more and babysat more. Meaning, yesterday I worked from 11:30am to 5pm then from 6pm to 11:30pm I babysat. MAN WAS I TIRED! Still I got MORE money. Basically now I’m loaded. Or more so my bank is. Haha. I also worked on Wednesday (if you can call it work) to get some of my stuff on Ebay, and FINALLY Riley’s old board games. View it all at http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQfrppZ25QQsassZwogQ2dsteve. Bid if you want, but ya…….haha. That brings us up to today. Not doing anything but my older brother is having a party for friends tonight. Have a great New Year’s Eve!!!

More and MOre fun!! 25 Oct 2005 08:41 pm

-Hey I’ve just been reading a bunch about Ted Dekker my FAVORITE AUTHOR, and wanted to recommend some of his papers, check them out at http://www.teddekker.com/?content=author_termpaper
OK so yeah a lot has happened! Saturday was Fall Ball, which I liked WAAAAAY better than Homecoming (not to put down Columbia River) but I knew everyone and the dancing was appropriate. YEAH! Though it was HOT in the black box. . . Crazy and the music was …ok… but I really didn’t like it. It wasn’t really dancing music, more just popular songs. Oh well! Haha Check out http://photo.clnw.com/thumbnails.php?album=32 for pictures from Fall Ball and Homecoming! Well Party Friday, early release Thursday and no school Friday this is gonna be a good week. . . I can’t wait for Ted Dekker to come out with a new book, JANUARY!!! YEAH!!! I recently saw 3 good movies, haha random jumping from subjects that have nothing to do with each other, hey jump-hopscotch-DDR fun!!! I have to play that. ok well anyway I saw “The Last Samurai” “Titanic” and “Batman Begins” this week. They all rocked, but “The Last Samurai” was strange. I mean “The Last Samurai” was WHITE!!!! That doesn’t work I’m sorry but COME ON! Oh and then the Emperor bows down after he has stood and watched ALL of the Samurais get utterly SLAUGHTERED by hi-tech weapons. The only one able to see it is THE WHITE SAMURAI!!!! SO SO DUMB!!! SOS Save Our Stick…. sry haha! Only about 2 people know about that. Ok so back to the point, some movies are really good, until the writers, or producers, or actors or whoever it is that makes those decisions screw it up with something like a white samurai. Crazy A-L-E-X haha, Alex would know about that but she doesn’t read this… or does she… Spencer D-U-M-B haha! Mean but yeah. OH OH Oh we had the science field trip today. That was fun! Haha, we got to throw sticks into Burnt Bridge Creek and time how long it took them to go 50ft then turn that into there velocity or something……yeah… YEAH ok, I really really really have a hankering (spelling?) for DDR D-A-N-C-E-Space-D-A-N-C-E-Space-R-E-V-O-L-U-T-I-O-N! YEAH I CAN SPELL!!! OK yeah bye bye!

Hmmm..

I need a good name for this blog. . . oh and I set it so that anyone registered can submit a post! Ummmm… to talk about
1.Travis
2.Homecoming
3.Other?
Haha! Well let’s get started. So this dude named Travis came last week, he was sooooo cool! He came to our house and had dinner with us, then we talked about church and then about his childhood! it was crazy and I thought some poeple had it bad. He has had 3 fathers, his first left somehow died, maybe suicide. His second married his mother only because he was a criminal on the run, so he married so that the cops couldn’t catch him as easily. Then they moved to Alaska, where at the time everyone smoked pot cause it was legal there (pot plants on the living room table) His family lived wherever they could, tree houses, abandoned homes, tents, cars, even a float house once that didn’t float so when the tide came in they had to sit on their beds and they water would wash the floor. He remembers playing in the commandos in the woods with his brothers and seeing actual gunfights happening below. He learned to use a chainsaw at age 10 or something, then he learned to build really well. He built a “house” for his family with his older brother only to learn that his mom was going to use it as a church. The crazy part is that it was the same church I went to in Hollis Alaska, with Jonathan and the rest of my breakout group! HE BUILT IT!!! Crazy! He also had to climb that tree and build that insane rope swing. Jonathan remembers. Yeah, and I think that is about all except that his younger brother died of a sickness, and then he became a Christian when he was sent to a Christian boarding school in Canada, now he is SOOOOO COOL! I so want to go back next year to Alaska! Ok well yeah Homecoming is tonight. That’s gonna be fun. Haha! A bunch of “pirates” dancing together. Ha! Yippee. Well I have to go finish my costume before that so yeah. Bye bye!

Haha! Then we saw Shawn. . haha! My old neighbor! Boy was that fun! Haha! This is how it went. .. Spencer taps Shawn on shoulder.
Shawn waits 5 seconds “Spencer?
