The New Year + Mountain Dew = Good Times

I would like to start off by apologizing to the three or four people who read this blog. I'm sorry for being extremely late. Better late than never I guess. Realizing this is the first blog of the new year... Happy New Year folks! I truly hope every one is having a great year thus far and life is going as smoothly as possible.

At the moment I'm hopped up on mountain dew and watching the end of Bruce Almighty on tv. Good call USA network. I love mountain dew by the way. It's easily the best soda out there. You know what? Go out and buy a mountain dew and some sort of chocolate (I recommend a brownie), eat that and tell me you don't feel awesome. Havin a bad day? Consume that kooky little combination and you'll be right as rain. Enjoy. Anyways, I've been drinking more soda than usual lately thanks to my job at Imo's Pizza. For those of you who don't know, I've been delivering pizza for about two months now and it has literally got to be the easiest job in the world. Except for those girls in Hawaii that lei people as they get off the plane. That might actually be easier but I'm a far cry from Hawaii. I wonder if there's a job application for that. Do they have "lei training school" or somethin? Maybe I'll Google that later. But really I just drive around listening to music, fold boxes, and do dishes. That's what I like to call good times.

Like a lot of people around this great nation of ours, I started classes. Yeah that's right, I'm back at good old LU. There is however something special about this particular semester. What's that Adam? Oh, well let me tell you! It's the last semester of my college career! Wow, its extremely odd to say that. Not long ago I was wandering the halls of Simonsen 9th grade center not knowing what the hell was going on. Now, I'm about to graduate college and enter the "real world." I have a mixed bag of emotions when it comes to that subject. As much as I'm ready to get out of the house and take a step forward, I've gotta say it's a little daunting. I don't have any idea what the future holds for me. Yes, I do have plans but there's no telling what will happen. God could throw me a curve ball and I could end up on a tropical island, wearing flowered shirts and sandals, laying in a hammock all day. That's what makes life thrilling though. It wouldn't be near as fun if we knew exactly what was going to happen each day, who we would meet, or where we would go.

In all honesty I wouldn't mind that tropical island right now. Lets make it happen because I'm done with winter. I've always wondered what it would be like to live on an island for a while, go off the grid. I doubt I'll experience that because I like being around people and at the end of the day our relationships with others are really what make the world go round. Seriously, think about it. As much as we like to think we're independent, we really can't function to our full potential without other people. Even the kids that isolate themselves in their rooms playing Halo on Xbox 360 can't exist without other people. Who made the game they're playing? Who do you think they're battling for online supremacy? You guessed right all-star. People.

Well ladies and gentlemen, the mountain dew has slowly worn off and now I'm tired. No late night drinking shenanigans right now. It's time to throw the engine into neutral and recharge the batteries so when Saturday night rolls around I'm ready to get crunk and rock out. I get it, I'm a dork but I've stopped worrying about that sort of thing. We all have an inner dork so just let it happen. I'm hittin the sack now so sleep tight. Until next time. God bless.
