Its late...

Its 2:30 am in the morning, and what am I doing? Waiting for boxing day sales...thats right. I dont even fricken want anything, but I am goin for my brother. I am such a good brother. Too good of a brother. So right now me and curtis are watching family guy season 4. He got it for Christmas. We are having a great time just hanging out waiting for 4:30 to roll around. Futureshop opens at 6 and Visions at 7. Curtis wants to get xbox games at 20$ a piece, cds at buy 2 get 1 free, and a stack of 100 CD-R's for 25 bucks. At visions there is a 10 inch clairion subwoofer for 35 dollars. Its gonna be good if we get all the deals that he wants. I want nothing...and I spent too much on my girlfriend, just kidding Alex.

So Christmas has come and past,and it has left me feeling good. We had very good sermons about Christ and his birth, and what it means for Christian. We even sang "Ere Zij God" which is the all time Dutch song...Christmas wouldnt be the same without it. Also we had present opening on Saturday which was a blast. Alex came over, and we had some goodies while opening the presents. My mom and my brother loved their presents, Alex loved her presents too, which means I am out of the dog house until...Valentines day. Heres hoping for another 2 good months until then.

I got really good presents from all my family. I got a guitar and an amp, a quiksilver - coat, zip up hoodie, and a shirt, I got a John Grisham book, a couple cd's, seat covers for my truck, and my mom bought me and my brother an ipod alarm sound system. It was really nice to receive all these gifts, but I still remember the best gift of all is Jesus Christ to the world. I really believe that the principle of gift giving is based on that. That the gift of Jesus Christ from God to the world is the idea behind gift giving.

I have been so busy with everything the past couple weeks, so I havent been able to blog, I apologize terribly, and will blog more constant til the end of the year.

Work and Christmas

So I got back from work today...it was super boring. It was 4 hours of overtime though which is nice, to go along with my new and shiny raise. There wasnt much to do because the electricians on the next house were not even done so we couldnt continue onto the next house. We just sheeted the previous house, and took it easy. Later I am going to the gym which should hurt really bad. I havent been there for like a week. I am getting real bad at going. I have no time to spend at the gym after work and alex. Alex takes up my free time which I dont mind at all, but also after 8 hours a day do you think I have energy to run a marathon or lift weights?

So Christmas is coming up soon...have you done your shopping, or made plans to get outta town? I have been shopping for my mom, my brother and I have done alot for alex. Well not alot, but I have her done. For a while now...like 2 weeks. I slept in one saturday when I was going to do overtime at work, and my mom and brother were going to the mall to check out some deals so I went to check out things for alex. Lo' and behold I was in the spending mood. Not to say I spent much. Or did I? Haha, Alex is worried I spent too much on her, which is a good worry. So Put in the comments about what you people are doing this christmas, or if you are starting or done christmas shopping. Or just leave a comment about anything you bums.

I didnt have much to write about today, but I bet something fun will come up in the next couple days/weeks. Talk to you guys later.

Raise the Roof

Well i dont think I told anyone this, well on the blog atleast that is. I got moved to roofing at triple m last week monday. Its a good switch. Nice and close to the heaters when its cold, and cooler people up on the roofs. Also you get to wear normal running shoes. When you are down on the floor you must wear 10 pound work boots. I have work boots, wasted 100 bucks on them, but I got to use them today, when I switched to sheeting for like 2 hours. It was pretty boring, and when i got back up top I was really glad that Larry Gill (my new favourite person at triple m) switched me to roofing. He is the roofing, windows, and sheeting supervisor and has the power over like 15-17 people. Pretty powerful right?

Definitely. Today he talks to me, I have gotten my firs raise to fifteen bucks an hour. Thats good for a 18 year old who has been working at his job for 8 weeks. But to make the story even better, larry talks to me about how much I am making. I say I got my first raise, and he tells me he is going to tell a guy to raise me to 17 bucks. Sweet eh? I do nothing, but work good and effecient and I am now getting uncalled for raises. So that is what happened today. It was really nice of him, and made me feel like I was doing a pretty good job. If any of you people need a job, just head over to triple m (Brian: But you prolly dont read my blog, just bugging you though) for a great job that pays well.

My Weekend Post...Little Late

So as you know...I couldnt go to whitefish with my friends. So I stayed at home...and had a busy weekend at home. I really wanted to go to whitefish with my friends...but life throws curveballs...and this is one of them.

Friday Night: Went to calgary in the afternoon with my brother and his friend josh. We had alot of fun driving up, screwing around, going on the c-train. At the game curtis bought a Roman Hamrlik stick. Did you know you could buy used hockey sticks, used by the players, from actual games? wow I did not know. But you can buy used miika kiprusoff sticks for 20 bucks and used iginla sticks for a staggering 250 bucks. Too rich for my dutch blood. I also signed up for a clagary flames mastercard. Dont know if I will get it, as I have been rejected for a visa twice. But this is different. I am a die-hard flames fan and they will notice this and give me the card, and plus I got a free blanket, so I did get something outa the deal. On the c-train ride home we met some majorly stoned guys and they were crazy. Talking all weird, and chatting with everyone in the train. It was pretty scary, and these 2 girls came into the bus, and all there was were guys around them. No girls in sight. Poor chicks. We had a short ride home, with curtis swearing at me cause he was so hungry, because we didnt stop at any places to get something to eat. We did stop in claresholm at the 7-11, and curtis was happier after that haha.

Saturday: I went to the rodermond's greenhouses and cleaned them with my yuouth group. It was no fun at all. If I would've known how much work it was I would've stayed home. It was like 7 hours of intense working, cleaning out a greenhouse. We had to pull out pepper stalks, and it was hard work. At the end of the day we had to drive all the way home, from medicine hat, and then I went out for supper with alex and then we just took it easy at my house.

It was definitely a productive weekend, but not worth missing out on Whitefish. I feel bad for not going, and backing out, but I know my friends understand, and plus that weekend is over and there is no hard feelings I hope. So I will post later about more fun stuff that happeend this week, if there is fun stuff. Prolly not.

Later Hater

My New Template

Please comment on my new template. I needed something different, and I really dont mind pink. If you have ever chatted with me on msn, I have had fuschia (pink) as my font color for like a year now.

Ciao for now

Well hello again, if You are reading my blog you can see that I have decided to not go to Whitefish, cause of mandatory/obligatory (choose what you want) events happening this weekend for me. I feel shitty cause I know my friends are having fun, and I am at home with a cold, a cut up finger and waiting for alex to come over. I am going to the flames game, I will post pictures of that and even the boring ass trip top medicine hat (hey I make over 100 bucks for my mexico account, I need it). My youth leader said that I am one of the lowest accounts so I reallyt need this, and I love it that my friends understand this. I didnt hope this would wreck our friendship and I love my friends for being so great about it (even if mike did call me a douche bag).

In other news my cut up finger has downgraded from gauze and a tensor bandage to just a couple heavy duty bandages. Its looking like shit right now, and it wouldnt heal much if I was in whitefish partying it up, and not cleaning it and such. Thats not an excuse for me not going, but my mom mentioned it. Here is a picture of my nice finger now with a heavy duty bandage on.



So well I am going to go, I need to get cleaned up, or maybe have a nap, whatever I do...I will blog tomorrow late about tonight and tomorrow's events. Keep reading all you anonymous blog readers (for lack of a better word).

Remember V for Vengeance loves you!
