If you have the time, please head on over to my Tumblr blog and check it out

My Tumblr

It's been a long time...

2010-08-26T16:35:00.000-07:00

Ok, so I know it has been FOREVER since I last posted anything up here on Blogger. Yeah, maybe "Thursday, January 14, 2010" is a pretty long time to not post anything. Haha sorry for that.

Well, for a start, alot has happened lately - I so happened to get married on May 29th to the beautiful Macey Mooneyham. You can check out her blog here.

So we went to Williamsburg, VA for our honeymoon and I have to say, we had a blast. We do have some photos that we took...BUT...yeah, we are slackers and we haven't really weeded through them to see which ones were good and we also would want to edit them. Sorry.

We also have jobs working for a local newspaper designing ads. It can be fun/hard/exciting/nerve racking at some times and... I guess I'll just leave it at that.

In case you haven't noticed, my DeviantArt has changed. To check it out, just click the link to the right that says "DeviantArt", and it will take you to my new DeviantArt account. There you will find some new photography. Definitely check it out sometime, you might come to find out that I'm pretty good. Haha

Well, I guess that will be all right now. I gotta save some for next time. haha

Kinda nasty photo manipulations? I guess you'll have to decide.

Self Advertisement Flyer

2010-01-08T18:26:00.000-08:00

First of all - I know that it has been awhile since I last updated my blog, I might decide to start updating more frequently now.

Lastly - I uploaded a self advertisement flyer that I had made a week or so ago, so look at it and want it because I am hoping to be able to print some of these up and stick them up at places.

The Week Of No School

2009-10-28T19:40:00.000-07:00

Yes, it's true, I have had no school this week and quite frankly....I have been pretty lazy. I think the reason might be that I miss the big iMacs that we just got in our class, that thing is a beast. I have also been watching the 1st season of DragonBall Z too, which has been occupying my time alot. I did happen to make a new header for my blog as you can see, I hope everyone likes it, and I uploaded a ton of my art and photography onto my DeviantArt...you can check that out here!

Well...I guess that's all for the update for now!
Keep checking back on me!

UPDATE

2009-10-05T18:52:00.000-07:00

Sorry I haven't been blogging lately, I have been kinda busy. I've been working on a brochure for a Rodeo in White Pine, I have been trying to get together my portfolio so I can have it printed into a book and so it can be awesome, I have been spending time with my Macey, and taking pictures with my amazing Canon Rebel XS camera.

Hopefully I will be able to upload some of my photos and illustrations on here so you can see them.

I moved my room around today....the dust is horrible, it makes me sneeze so much and it makes me feel like I am sick or something. But anyways, I will try to post a new blog at least every two days....or at least I'll try.

Peace out suckahs...buugaaahh!

Me and My Katamari

2009-09-26T19:00:00.000-07:00

I have been playing my psp alot lately, because I finally got the Katamari Damacy game for the psp - We Love Katamari. It's such an addicting game, it's becoming to be pretty much one of my favorite games of all. If you have never heard of this game, then you most definitely need to check it out! Here is pretty much the story of the game--->

"The King of All Cosmos and the Royal Family decide to take some time off from their celestial construction and travel to Earth for a well-earned (for the Prince at least) tropical summer vacation on their own sunny island. Unfortunately, the King's over-exuberance creates a tsunami that strikes and devastates nearby Paradise Commonwealth Island. One of the residents, a turtle, washes ashore next to the Royal Family and tells them his tale. The King then decides to make new islands for the animals of the Commonwealth with several katamari. Similar to the previous Katamari titles, the King sends the Prince to the Sunflower Continent, which is full of the paraphernalia used to create new landmasses."

Second Day Of Autumn

I am still waiting for the new cd to be released by Blink 182, which was supposed to be released in the summer of '09...I really hope that it will come out soon. Next month is October, which means that my birthday and halloween are coming up soon, and for halloween, I will have my blog set up special for it. Keep checking up on it!!!

Fun With My Fiancée's Mac.

2009-09-21T19:40:00.000-07:00

Today, my fiancée, Macey, left her Macbook at my house so I could update the software on it. So, I did...and I did just a little bit more too. MWAHAHAHA!!! Yeah, that's right! I did it alright! I played in Photo booth, and I have to say...it was quite amazing. I made some amazingly hilarious photos and videos.

You can view the videos below.

Arts in the Park

2009-09-19T19:16:00.000-07:00

Today was Arts in the Park at Martin Luther King Jr. Park in the back of Morristown, TN. It was pretty fun today, I'm really tired though, me and Macey were there from 8 am until 4 pm. It was a long day, we pretty much were on our feet all day cause we failed at bringing our own chairs, we thought that the park was going to supply chairs for us. FAIL! Oh, and something else that was great would be Thomas. He was walking around all day just talking normal and then he would just walk into a little patch of flowers where there were some bees at and he would just kick them across the ground. I could see the little bee flying through the air screaming "noooooo!!!" and then bouncing on the ground and lying there unconscious. He did that to about fifteen little bees, plus one big bumble bee. I still don't know if there was any bee fatalities yet. He also caught two little bees in his powerade bottle, I still don't know what happened to those ones. There was also these little spinning things at the playground there, Macey pushed both me and Thomas around on them, but, Macey was too scared to get on and let us spin her around. There was these two women that looked at our booth, and they wanted to buy a print of mine, it was a photo of a house in Savannah, GA, they thought it was a house that is in New Orleans, so I told them that the photo was actually taken in Savannah and then they just walked away and left us there. Those two women made me so mad! Anyways, my feet and toes hurt. We didn't really get to eat anything today though, just a couple nachos and half of a barbecue pork sandwich, we were so hungry by the end of the day. Overall, it was a pretty good and fun day.

Peace out suckas, chi-kaaa!

A Week Means Nothing.

2009-09-16T18:55:00.000-07:00

This is how this story starts, ok? So there is this game that is going to be released soon, the name of that game is "Aion", and I was on the website for it and decided that I wanted to download the beta version from their website. I was excited about it and all, I sacrificed a lot to get it too.

{1. I had to deal with slow internet for a whole week.
{2. I left my computer on the whole week too, without turning it off so it wouldn't take as long to download. *hah*
{3. There were times that I kept waking up in the middle of the night just so I could check and see how much longer it had left to go.

So I just finished downloading it today, and it was done as soon as I got home from school and that was convenient. I was to excited! I hurried up and started the installation process...the long installation process. And then you have to install it after you install it too. After about an hour, it was finished. I loaded the game, I watched the intro video, logged in to my account, waited about fifteen minutes for it to log me in...., and then a stupid little error window pops up and it tells me that I have been disconnected from the servers, and for whatever reason it kicks me off of the game and closes it out on me. What's with that?! It does that every time I try to log on. I don't know what to do with it, I just wasted a week on that download. I don't know what to try next with it. Apparently, to Ncsoft, a week means nothing.

I'm a new blogger.

2009-09-14T18:05:00.000-07:00

So, this is my first time that I have actually tried to "blog", I hope that I can start to get used to it pretty soon. But, just so you know...one of the main reasons why I am "blogging", is cause my persuasive fiancée finally talked me into doing it. : )

This is the gorgeous little delinquent right here.
