At the end of my college career, the one thing I will be proficient at is navigating the 18 inches between between rows of auditorium seats, Overcoming obstacles such as; legs, coats, and backpacks, while at the same time not putting my butt in peoples faces.

David Peterson was jonesin' for a squash, I mean he really wanted one, But when he came across one unguarded his desires were thwarted by the Austins proprietary stamp.




Keep Searchin' for that dream squash Dave

Apparently Wal*Mart was having some problems with their Bathroom trash.

OH OK....That Clears Some Things Up...Thank You Wal*Mart

Jackets, well I've had some encounters with jackets lately and I've got the pictures to prove it.

First and foremost, I saw these at DI, and what a Bargain at just 50 $ Unfortunately 50$ is a lot for me lately luckily for me these aren't moving very fast off the rack, who knows why, I mean a genuine leather patchwork jacket with button lapel and industrial zipper, and there were only 75 to 100 left I hope there still there after the black Friday rush.
Might I add this jacket is remarkably similar to the one Johnny Depp wears in 21 jump streetand while were on the topic of sensitive talented hunks; check me out in this Jay-Z inspired down jacket at Ross for only 25 dollars.
This next one represents everything great about my parents, we weren't rich in growing up and it was kinda understood among 8 kids that you wouldn't always get what you wanted for Christmas or birthdays, especially since they fall in the same month for me. So, I never really asked for things growing up, with two notable exceptions, one of which was a starter jacket in 6th grade. when I asked for it, my dad took me to the mall (his least favorite place on earth) in one of the busiest times of the year and bought my this overpriced 49ers Starter pullover with kangaroo pouch. So, when I saw the exact jacket at DI how could I help be be overwhelmed with thanks for parents who love me, and were willing to sacrifice for a 12 year old kid with an insatiable desire for sports and popularity.
what was they other time I asked for something you ask? oh I just got caught up in the Crossfireand last but not least I pick up this jacket from DI tonight, I don't even like the broncos but it fits like a dream.



what a great day for BYU Sports.

A Great game against the arch rivals the Utes, in football after a 4th a 18 with less than a minute to go... And they in case you thought that was it, the BYU basketball team went the distance with the number one team in the nation having the lead as late as with 4 minutes to go, thanks to the play of one Trent Plaisted, my econ 230 classmate, who for the first time in his career played close to his potential. Proud to be a cougar fan today.

NICKNAME GAME.

If you ever want to spice up a story involving your mom and your dad, just refer to you mom as your dads wife. Although technically accurate, doing so makes it seem like theres some turmoil and there. People will assume that your some rich kid with a yacht, and a stepmom or something.

Trenton My little brother left on a mission about a month ago, and just recently i visited my parents again and stayed the night. They had assumed that I would sleep in his bed, and so did I... until I walked in his room, void of his ornaments, and trinkets, and his life; it felt like I was walking into a dead persons room, So, needless to say I stayed in guest room instead.


that kid is gonna be a great missionary we're all very proud,

p.s. These photos were snapped inside the MTC after they tell you to turn off your cameras, but thanks to I phone, these and other memories were captured.

episode 2

I know Austin tends to have the market cornered on strange dreams but, I have a submission of my own today.
I have what they call lucid dreams which means I am aware of my dreams and can mentally manipulate them to some extent. It's a lot like playing some sort of choose your own adventure video game. So occasionally I'll be Spiderman or one of the X-men but usually I'm just myself, and the lucid aspects of my dreams are me getting out of trouble, or out of an awkward or unsavory situation. however last night I had a new spin on my lucid dreaming, reoccurring developing characters.
About 6 months ago I had a dream that I was in the home of my youth and a car broke down in front of my house, as I went out to assess, and perhaps help the situation, I ran into a guy (completely fictional) from down the street, a mechanic of sorts, and while he seemed unsavory, he also appeared to be a genuinely nice guy. He fixed the car and moved on....later in the dream I came across one of his tools and decided to return it too his house Upon finding the door locked I proceded around back where to my surprise I found him and his very pregnant wife Dancing the waltz. the waltz seemed quite out of charactor for a grizzled mechanic. He was startled; but rather than being embarrassed, he was grateful I had returned the tool. and thats where I fade out of dream consciousness and faded into waking up.
well last night I had a similar dream, no car or tool, but once again I found myself approaching his back yard, but this time they were not doing the waltz but instead some sort of Shakespearian style play. The grizzled mechanic was the director and his wife (no longer pregnant) was the lead, this is not so weird except that the couples life had developed quite a bit since I last met them, most notable the mechanic had a longer beard, the wife was not pregnant, but there was a new baby they showed me, once again dream faded out as I faded in, and that was the end of it.
This is wierd to me, I've had reoccuring dreams before but never any where fictional charactors continue developing in suspended animation. It seems that my mind, noticing that this was a previously dreamt situation, imediately advanced the charactors lives to make up for my gap of interaction with them. Has ayone else experienced this? I'd like to know.
