new idea?

howdy all

i think i am deciding to change my blog content a bit. i was just looking back at my trip to japan and all the pictures i was taking. i realized that i really miss taking a bunch of pictures, especially of things that don't often get attention for cameras. i am sure there are a bunch of things around here that would be interesting to see. so, i think i might take a break from the boring "today i did this" and move towards more of a picture blog. there have already been a few things that i wish i had my camera for. for instance, i was driving to house church one morning, and i came to a stop sign. i looked to my left, and there it was... a rooster (yes, the farm animal we are all familiar with) drinking out of the gutter. although it was sad, it was art begging for its picture to be taken... unfortunately i didnt have my camera.

so, i now will be carrying my camera almost everywhere i go, and i will post the ones that are interesting on here... i guess we'll have to see if i can keep coming up with some interesting ones. feedback will be welcome. actually, i would like to know if this idea is even good... i dunno, but i am going to try it....

maybe i am just acting on my regret for not having my camera for the rooster sighting... hmmm, we'll see.

anyway, i am off... to, well, no where... but i am off.

glasses and clouds


howdy all
what a day it has been, filled with some wacky weather. i can't get over how fast weather changes in california. i went to the grocery store this morning [to buy ingredients for some cookies i whipped up :) ] and the sky was black... i was afraid their would be a huge downpour by the time i got back out. well, i was completely wrong. i came back out 15 minutes later [i'm a fast shopper when i need to be] and the sky was blue. the sun was shining all around and the clouds were far, far away. that's california for you. this is a pick from before the blue skies came... right above is a big black cloud.

i can see clearly now the rain is gone... well, not necessarily because the rain is gone... more because now i have reading glasses. yup yup, i now wear reading glasses for, well, reading. i also wear em while i am on the computer [i am wearing them now :) ] trying to figure out how i look with glasses on? try no more... here's a pic
pretty snazzy, eh?

although i sit at home terribly bored and without something to do tonight, i will not be doing the same tomorrow night. i am going to a concert tomorrow night in thousand oaks...i get to go see Sanctus Real. ya, it's going to be awesome... i'll make sure to take a lot of pics like i did with the Newsboys concert.

well, i better be off... like i said, i've got a busy night doing nothing

hooroo

sunsets and surprises






these are some pics from manhattan beach... i usually try to cathc the sunset when i go out there for tennis during the week... pretty :)

not much has been going on for me to post about. we're still working on our house and trying to figure out what colors are going where as far as walls and carpet go (i'm set on green carpet in my room... any suggestions for wall color?) exams went okay... i really don't know what grades i got on the exams (except for my chem exam... :/ ) but i am very pleased with my final grades in all my classes. my wisdom teeth were successfully yanked, but there's something goin on that i gotta get checked out. i got back from a trip to j-tree last night, and that pretty much sums up the past few weeks. however, today my brother aldo came home with a huge... i mean HUGE... surprise. completely out of no where, by bro came home looking like this:


aldo is the one on the left... for those of you who dont see the huge change, this is how he looked before and for the past 5 years...
