i can finally breathe, suddenly alive

right now i'm sitting the front living room of my apartment listening to a song that keeps saying "i can finally breathe, suddenly alive"  and i'm loving ever bit of the song.  it's from a new anberlin album that i bought this week.  Bryce, Mitch and i have all decided to get tickets to the anberlin concert that's coming up in about a month or two.  i'm supper exited because they are my favorite band of all time.  
yesterday, which was friday night, i didn't have anything going on here in provo and it had been about 6 weeks since i had made it home last time so i decided to pay my family a visit.  when i got there my dad started putting me to work as he seems to have a difficult time getting anyone else in the family to work.  but after washing cars and going to home depo and some other stuff we ate dinner and we got a chance to goof off.  we played "imagine if" and then my mom started playing the piano.  luckily in my family, all of us are musically talented and we just started singing different parts to the songs that she was playing. we were singing to songs from musicals, disney movies, and special arrangement of hymns. having a little family time this weekend made me realize how much i really love them and miss spending as much time with them as i used to.  i'm not homesick at all, i'm just realizing how cool my family is.
also tonight, being saturday, we decided to have a guys only night here at the apartment.  it ended up not being guys only as a certain girl named jenny invited herself over to hang out with us.  now normally i dont care if she comes and hangs out, and i wouldn't have even cared if she came tonight.  what i didn't like is the fact that she asked if it was a guys night out and i told her "yes!" and also that our apartment wanted to just hang out together.  even after telling her that she stuck around.  now, i dont want this to sound like i dont like her, as i said before, i typically don't care if she's here.  either way, we decided to play risk and she took over allen's spot in the game.  i think she wanted to leave so she committed suicide pretty quickly.  during the game i thought that Bryce was going to kill us all, and several times i thought that i was going to be eliminated but i ended up surviving until it was just Wally and me but that ended very quickly.  Wally beat us all up pretty good at the end.  well tomorrow morning i'm getting up early (6 am) like i do every sunday for BYU EMS, so i'm headed to bed.

  1. Hey I like the brutal-honesty concept of your blog. It reminds me of a lame little saying (which is actually about bluntness, but I think that they are similar): it may initially hurt more, but it isn't as fatal. anyway it sounds like you had a good weekend (even though you ended it by playing risk. But I guess it's not completely over yet).

  2. I share Ollie's sentiment--it's good to see that the blog is staying true to its namesake. I would also like to say that holding Asia is not a good way to win a game of Risk. It's too large and too open to attack to provide a stable base of operations. Africa seems to be the best choice, especially since Ollie won with the African army. The horror! The horror!
