i'm ready to publicly admit.....
I LOVE GLEE it is an amazing show, and not only that but it has helped me discover a guilty pleasure that I never even knew I had. I love the music from broadway musicals. I have never seen one, but i found out that Wicked is playing in salt lake on my birthday and I would love to go. Too bad the cheap seats are like $100 dollars. Oh well, I just thought I would share my secret with the world

Sometimes I read
Maybe I read because I don't know myself very well.
Am I an adrenaline junkie?
Am I an outdoors enthusiast?
Am I an environmentalist?
Am I a biker at heart?
Am I philosophical?
Am I a cowboy?
Am I a city boy?
Am I a redneck?
Am I a hippie?
I think I like to read because I hope that someday in the pages of my favorite books I'll finally figure out who I really am.

hello again
Well I haven't written in quite some time so I figured I would get to work. Sundance is closed :( i'm not very happy about this, but hey i can get through the spring summer and fall and it will be waiting for me there in the same spot when winter comes around again. I did get to go skiing at alta recently, and although no one could go with me I had an amazing time. It was my first time skiing at alta and I can't believe I waited till I was 22 to make it to such an amazing place. I'm going through severe skiing withdrawls, I wake up and almost the first thing that pops into my head is, "I haven't skied in SO LONG!!" really it's only been since monday but that feels like forever ago.
Spring has arrived, or I should say that it is trying to arrive. Winter is putting up a good fight but unfortunately I think that spring will pull ahead for the victory.
I'm ok with that, because spring brings camping, slacklining, scooting, long boarding, campfires, and many other fun things I love to do.
With the arrival of spring pool season has begun. I'm the assistant manager this year and I am super excited, I actually started a couple weeks ago and it is so nice to be back at my favorite summer place. We get to start hiring soon and that should only add to the excitement because then it really starts picking up!!
Well friends I hope ya'll are doing great, and I hope you're excited for spring!

many things to say
first: it was amazing to see some of my really good friends last night, i haven't seen ya'll in a while, it was nice to catch up.
second: congrats Jameson, texas dallas mission!!
third: ok this one will be a bit longer, and i know that it will probably sound strange to some, especially because it is right above the previous post. But can i just say that i really really really wish i had a girlfriend! unfortunately i'm a very shy guy. With this whole valentines day coming up, and with the recent episode of my favorite show i've been thinking how nice it would be to know that someone likes me (more than just a friend), and it would be nice to have someone that i like. (key there is that the relationship is mutual) I know that i should date more if i really want this to happen, but you see; i'm not me when i date, and i don't know anyone that i would ask out on a date. I also would like to leave the club, you know the VL one, i know to some that are reading this it might sound absurd that i am saying such things, but it would be nice, it's something that i've wanted for a while. I've played it off like i don't care about it, but i really would like to give it a shot.

amendment #1 for my list of things to do this year
I should probably try dating a little bit more. Who knows? Maybe i'd like it if I gave it a try????
My job
simply put my job is the best, it is the kind of job that when I am at home, or I am with friends, most of the time I would rather be at work. You may think I'm crazy, because some of you when you go to work you have to look at a grill, or stand behind a counter, or maybe you are working in retail and you are in a mall all day, or maybe you are in a cubical/call center inside of a big office building. Well, I'm not.... this is the view from my office
it's ok to be completely jealous. I wouldn't blame you, in fact I would be shocked if you weren't.

blog please?
Well the title of this post is a text i got from a very good friend of mine who is also a follower of my blog. upon further review I realized that she has good reason for sending this text to me, it has been far to long since i have written in this here digital journal. So first things first, happy christmas, happy new year, and happy 1/11/11 day, yep it's all pretty epic.
I'm in full swing right now at my new job, for those of you who do not know, i am working as a ski instructor at sundance ski resort. It is amazing, and easily one of the best jobs i've ever had in my life, only the pool rivals it's status as the best. I get to go up to the mountains (my favorite place) and teach skiing (my favorite thing) 4 days and 2 nights a week. I don't think i could ask for very much more in a job. I still work at AFFC, it's good but i'm slowly realizing how under utilized i am there. I don't want to sound arrogant but i have quite a bit of experience when it comes to pools and i am still working in the bottom position at the minimum wage, that just seems a little lame to me. But i enjoy the people i work with there, and i enjoy being at a pool.
I am still in school, even with my 2 jobs, it's a little crazy but i thoroughly enjoy my crazy lifestyle. I don't have much time for a social life but even when i did have time i didn't really have one so i don't think i'm missing out on too much.
I think i should make a list of things i want to do this year in no specific order.
1. learn to fly fish
2. road trip to washington to see a mariners game
3. swim a lot
4. ski a lot
5. find my first girlfriend
6. leave the club
7. get fit again
8. try not to rejoice too much in the fact that i'm a pool/ski bum
9. further my career as a pool/ski bum :)
10. work on getting out of debt
11. continue in school, and confirm what i want to be in life.
12. move out next fall
13. save up money to visit florida
14. get my hunters safety and go hunting for the first time
More is surely on the list but i can't think of anything right now. i will continue the list as ideas pop into my head.
I don't have a whole lot more to say, my life is just filled with work work work and a little bit of school. (best semester since being home from the mission)
Have a good one ya'll
