The strong silent type

A little marbleworks video I made:

Hey everyone, here is a video that We filmed this Christmas. It stars Me, Kai, Chelsie, and Janine. It is to the song "Snow (hey oh)" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Enjoy!

Hey Everyone. A long time ago I mentioned that I was going to post a video. Here it is! It is the introduction for the game we played at youth group. We turned all the lights off in the church, and just Terminators scaring people. It was sweet.

Hi erveyone,

Things are going good. I am still doing bad in school, but I have hope. At least I am not being stressed, and I feel like finishing. SO that is good.

I just don't want to leave you all thinkin I am doing bad.

Class is about to start! I have a new video... But I can't post it yet, I don't want the information to leak out!

Hi everyone,

Right now I feel pretty bad. I am living my life at a pace that is killing me. I am showing no obedience to spending time with God, and I am doing really bad in school.

Now, some of you know me as the guys who says "I did so bad on that test", then a week later goes "tee, hee, hee... I got an A-, how un-expected".

Well, in the last 2 days I got two mid-terms back. The first mark: 9/20 (45%). I am not used to failing... this feels pretty bad. Second mark: 31/100. Yikes!!! That is worse than the first one. Even though I am slightly more used to failing now, it still feels bad. Just so you all know, I felt quite confident after both exams. I thgough I would pull off between 60-90% for both of them. I was wrong.

So I feel really bad. I am discouraged about school.
But life is good. I have food, house, friends, and God is using me to further his kingdom!

Well, I am very busy right now. I know how "cliche" this is, but I just am. Thankyou everyone who checks on my blog, even though I post once a month. Maybe sometime I will put on my Lastest Video.

Well, I am back on the blog. I hope everyone who reads my blog is happy. But I will keep this short. I am sitting on my deck, because that is where I get the best wireless. However this plan does not take into account the winter months. I can sit out here in a jacket and gloves... which will make it hard to type. ha ha ha.

During the summer my friend Kai and I played a prank on our co-worker/friend Janine. We followed her to work in a truck, and she was on her bike. it was great. Afterwards we turned it into a full fledged stalking video... and here it is!

I made a really sweet domioe course With Darrell a long time ago. Unfortuately It might be a smidgen too big to put into flash so it will play online. But it's a smooth 1.49 MB dowload here:

I hope you all enjoy

I am currently on the greyhound logged onto a Hotel's wireless internet! I love this computer! Man, This is so sweet. It is the Golden Tree Hotel in Golden. The Prestige didn't let me log on, but that's fine! Wahoo! I better publish this though, before the bus leaves! ha ha ha, how sweet is that?!?!

Well... I saved up, and got a new computer!


It's a Toshiba Satellite pro M70-GM5. It has 80 GB of memory... and I only use 20 GB on my old computer, so I should be OK. It has 512 MB of ram. Pentium processor, 15 inch widescreen... and it plays DVD's!!!

I am using it now. I am connected to someone's wireless network right now, but it's a bad connection, so the internet is slow and cuts in and out. Hmmm... seems like dial up. I am very excitd to say the least! Wish me luck.

I just want people to reply to this, by saying one thing they are proud of. I am proud of working at Palliser... a manual labor type job, when all I have been doing my whole life is brainy school stuff.

I was just joshin' with that last blog. It was pretty much just a joke to pull Peter's... ummm... leg. I am too funny.

Next order of business.
Last night, 7:30PM- decide I want to take my drivers test in the next week, before I go back to BC.
Last night, 7:31PM- phone driver test lady, and see what she has available. "12:30 tomorrow", "OK"
Last night, 8:30PM- confirm to use someone's car for the road test.
This morning, 7:10AM- wake up so I can practice driving.
This morning, 8:30AM - 12:15PM- Learn how to drive with confidence, parallel park, and not hit pedestrians.
This afternoon, 12:45PM- Pass drivers test! YAY!

So that is a true story. I just have to go to the registry agent, and get my class five licence! I'm practically a new man!

I love frisbee golf. If anyone ever wants to play sometime, give me a call. I played against my brother and dad today in the park. The score was: dad - 4, Mike - 2, Kevin - 1. Then in the last 4 holes I did well, and won it. We were playing match play if anyone was wondering. If you win a hole you get a point. If you tie, no one gets nothing. Then I played pool against my dad in the Legion (that's right... the Royal Canadian Legion) and he beat me every game! I had plenty of opportunity, bu I choked numerous times!

That is about it. how about a picture of a frisbee:

I just saw the sweetest car today. It was a chevy Cavalier. The only reason I knew was because I was with Darren, and he knew the brand.
It looked like this but red:












So I looked up Cavaliers, and apparently they are a really good car. I hadn't thought much about vehicles before, but I think the first car I will ever get is a Chevy. Hopefully I can get Peter Ralph to find me a good used one in a few years when I am looking. He knows a lot about cars, and since Chevy's are so great, I bet he has a couple, or has passed a few through when selling and buying. So if anyone wants a Chevy, go and talk to Peter Ralph.

Alright, this is probably the funniest thing I have ever seen someone do.

Darrell and I were standing in the bulk section at the Crowfoot Safeway, and a young couple comes up and starts looking at the candy and stuff. The girl is just standing there, and the guy comes up and puts his arm around her. Then he farts! And she was like "Oh I thought you came over to give me a hug.", and he said "Oh, you didn't have to do that in the grocery store."

Now this is the point where Darrell and I start laughing. And the guy looks over and says "I appologize for my girlfriend." And we just burst out in laughter. He said that a couple more times, then went to the chip section! It was halarious! I was laughing so hard I started to cry. The girl was being a good sport about it the whole time. But I admire the guy for doing that... it's halarious!

Since then, every time I think about it I burst out laughing... it was SO funny, and I have pretty much been laughing the whole time I have been writing this blog. Hopefully, I can do the same to cheer up someone's day!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha,
Kevin

So, I made a flash thing... it is pretty cool, and here it is:



Check back as I will update it as I work on it.

The Davinci Code sucks!
I tried to figure out why Dan Brown was vacationing in his Vaticant, and who found a bible in their Magdalene.


I am extremely excited about how Darrell has a cell phone. If anyone would like ot see my reaction, here it is:



Now I will hopefully have a job at Palliser Lumber! Yay! I might very well start on Wednesday.

Next, about the Davinci Code comment at the top... I don't actually think it sucks... I haven't read the book or seen the movie. I have only read Darrell's blog... and if you read his blog you can see that someone replied without actually reading the entire blog. So I am testing to see wether or not this same person will reply to mine. Also, I really just want people to reply to my blogs... that's sad. Anyways, lets all see if it works.

I miss Anna: I got to see her on Friday, for 5 minutes... Not even joking. 5 minutes. It was good, but afterwards I missed her so much more, that it just felt frustrating. We only really talked about logistical things, and I felt stupid, because I didn't really ask about more important stuff, like how she was feeling, and spiritual stuff. We didn't pray or anything. We only has 5 minutes... but overall I am glad I got to see her, and give her a box of mini-wheats.

Thankyou Darrell for reading my blogs,

Kevin

I am going to BC for the weekend for a family reunion. I might get a chance to see Anna an my way through!

This concludes my shortest post yet.

I am in Calgary. It is hot. I got the job in Revelstoke. I work from June 26 'til end of August. I will hopefully work in Calgary until then. I am writign short sentences. This reminds me of a joke:

The shortest sentence in the english language:
I am.
The longest sentence in the english language:
I do.

Ha ha ha! Many of you may ask: Is that a Mitch Hedburg Joke? And my answer is: NO. However, this is:

I was writing a letter to my dad, and I went to write, "I really enjoy being here dad.", but instead of writing really, I wrote rarely. But I wanted to use it anyways, so I wrote, "I rarely drive steamboats dad. Quit trying to pretend that I am a steam boat operator."

And so is this:

At the end of letter I write: PS- This is what a part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.

And one more writing related joke by Mitch Hedburg:

As a comedian I come up with jokes for a living. So when I'm in my hotel room, and I think of a joke, I write it down. But if the pen and paper are too far away, I have to convince myself that what I thought of really wasn't funny.

Now my brain is swarming with Mitch Hedburg Jokes... don't disturb... Lady at front desk's number is zero... 13th floor... BOB, get away... frozen banana... pancakes exciting, then you get sick of 'em... waffel is pancake with syrup trap... breifcase handcuffed to wrist... duck at subway... beaver houses... bigfoot is blurry... "how woudl you like your eggs?... purple people... flamable and have legs... smokey the bear... smacky the frog... velcro wallet... addicted to semi-circle... house shampoo... 2 in 1... king sized bed... 2 bedroom appartment... I saw you at the airport a minute ago, and you were good... 3 honks a month... have you ever tried sugar or PCP?... lake-on houses... cottage cheese banana bread pestromie sandwich... cross eyed sister... expert at cars... Pringles and tennis balls... can't open the wall... hot tar roofer... used to do drugs... I don't have a girlfriend... slam the flap... lynn and lyn... wine-o eating grapes... Yoplait, try again... grilled Fritos... Corn off the cob... picture of me when I was older... red means "where did you get that banana?"... hard to reach plants... one complicated payment... Mr. Pibb... tight rope walker... a handfull of jelly beans... snake bite repair kit... plight of onions... forgot to pretend water fake plant... club sandwich... Carmax... food is better when it is dropped... AA, BB, CC's... underwater camera... highlight certain parts of a paper... above ground pool... forklift lifting forks... race car passenger... sponge ruiner... Snap Crackle Pop and Mitch... oscillating fan... tried to walk into Target... koala bear infestation... chainsaw juggling... doughnut receipt... crazy straws... floating lime... tape recorder parrot... Reese's pieces... Cinnamon roll insence... remix a remix...

Oh he is a funny guy.


Well, I am not doing so swimmingly. My mind has been plagued with many doubts. Now they don't feel like the classic kind of doubts.. just more or less the confusion doubts. There is so much to know and understand that it gets frustrating. And I haven't been let in on the secret on how to move information from your brain to your heart. I guess I probably have been let in on the secret... but I just haven't noticed... or maybe it hasn't sunk into my heart yet. A lot of you may know me as a great guy and all... but I don't think I am. There is a lot of stuff that I do and think that nobody sees. I know everyone has all of those things too. Which just shows us how much more we need God's grace.

I just feel kind of down. I don't feel great about myself, and I tremble at the thought of everything I am going to have to do and live through on Earth. I know that this is a pesimistic view... but it just seems that life will be this constant battle all the time, and it will just suck. I can't stand the thought of me doing things that will hurt myself and others... I kind of feel trapped in my skin, and I want to get out!

Anyways, Have a nice day everyone!

"I don't have a cell phone or pager. I just keep everyone around me all the time. Then if someone needs to get a hold of me they say 'Mitch', and I turn my head slightly." --Mitch Hedberg

So I am in Revelstoke for almost a week. I am now hanging out with My friends Kai and Anders. (As you can tell I am really spending quality time with them, as I am blogging.. lol). Kai is on the left, Anders in the middle, and me on the right. I got that suit for appx $2.50, and it fit almost perfectly... We just had to take out a hem in the legs, which was done poorly, so it was easy to take out. Vanessa Robert (Piper) is about to visit, since she is in town, then we get to go pick up garbage! (it's a youth group fundraiser) Wahoo! I like frisbee. I miss Anna.

I just came up with a funny idea... but it involves trickery of blogs. So I don't want to say it, becuase then none of you will reply to my blogs. But I won't do it. Anyways, you could write a blog about something, like pizza, and someone might reply "Oh, I really like to eat that!", then you could go back and change your origional blog to "How about the stinky gross garbage", and everyone will think that they like stinky gross garbage. I am geneus! but I won't do it.

Check me out in tights! a-wink!

I basically thought It would be funny to have the same picture as Peter. Is it? I don't know. This is what happens when I have all day to myself. I got sick of TV yesterday. I can only read for so long before my mind turns into JELL-O (And believe me, it does... to see what I mean go to My Jello Commercial). I really like this. The whole doing nothing thing! I am using it well though. Reading through "Waking the Dead", by John Eldrigde, not to be confused by "Waking the Dead" by Stephen King ( )... very different. ha ha ha. It is a hard book to read through, because it deals with such hard topics, that make me insecure about my relationship with God. It is hard to realise that you aren't living a life fully in Christ, and not feel like it's because God hasn't given you that ability. This is why I didn't make it through the first time, and that started about 7-8 months of doubt and desert times. I don't want that to happen again, but if it has to happen again to teach me something, then I guess I do want it to happen again. But I'd rather learn without the desert times.

Transitional Note: I am in the habit of hitting ctrl-s to save. That published the blog, and it is anoying. It has happened abotu 3 times writing this blog.

I'm going to Revelstoke on Friday! I get a ride with one of my great friends Ali, who happens to be an older sister figure to me. She makes sure I don't go for too long without showering at camp. I am looking forward to the 5 hours we get to chat. I am also lookign forard to seeing some friends I haven't seen in a while. I am thinking of Kai and Anders, but there are other people that I woudl probably enjoy seeing more. I can't believe I just said that, ha ha ha. But I'm keeping it in. "See kiddies, this is what happens when you type without thinking".

But when all is said and done... The conclusion of this blog... Yes, what I'm trying to say here is...

GOGO

Thankyou, I always knew you would be there for me. And besides, now I can comments on Peter's and Darrell's and Anna's and other peoples blogs.

I had a blog, but it was with MSN, I don't know if it still exists. Let's see. Yep, found it... The address is:
http://spaces.msn.com/corndiggity/
Go there for everything pre-May2006. However I can't be held responsible. Hey! I should open up a new blog each year. Anyways, I want to make a clock out of toothpicks. Good luck friends,
Kevin
