Im back loyal readers. And if theres more than 1 of you then I will be very suprised. I am back on this very snowy october day to let you into to life of a radio host and my feeling on 3 on 3 basketball.
Oh the joys of being a dj on the radio. As fun as it I must say it does take more effort than one would imagine. If I being a listener would say, "that job cant be hard, all you do is listen to music for a few hours" how true and wrong you are dear person. Its true that I get to listen to music for a few hours a week and get 2 credits doing so. BUT. I also put alot more work into those credits than just that. First off I do sports update once a week, which detail, preparing a script, recording it properly, adding the final touches, and moving it over to the live computer to be played over the air. I also have to listen to you call in horrible music. After awhile it kills me. I can only handle so many jonas brothers and brittany spears before I go insane. Oh and did I mention I have to stand the whole two hours im on air? well i do. And its no fun. So yes. the life of a radio dj is fun, but there is much more put into it then many of you assume.
I have discovered the secret to 3 on 3 basketball. And the results may suprise you. Have a big tall kid to play down low. a medium kid to set the picks and run around. and a little kid with a big ego to shoot balls 3 ft from the 3pt line. I know this because I just played this team. And let me tell you it pissed me off. If your good. Thats awsome. Good for you to put the effort in. But when you show off by taking rediculosly long shots in the middle of the game I draw a line. So what do I do. I guard the loser get in his face, use my elbow to push him back when he drives and hope it ends badly for him. Well it did. Because he decides to take his anger out of being driven outside by using me as target practice with the basketball after he shoves me. lol. Lets just say I might be the strongets kid, but you make me mad and my mein dont back down instincts kick in. And if it wasnt for a teammate I would probably of been kicked out of the league. Im not saying I have no fault or blame. All Im saying is play a good game. No one wants to play kids who think there the next kobe or lebron. Its no fun for anyone.
School update: I still am amazing at bowling. I still suck at spanish. History of England is moving slower than I hoped. Water aerobics is too wet for the winter. PE is a waste of my money. Radio is the best thing snow has to offer. period.
Side news: Im finally learning new songs on the guitar. Im going dark side. That is Im trading in my Xbox 360 and getting a PS3. I know, Im sad too.

My summer
I've sided to step back and talk about my past summer. And what an adventure it was. This summer I was so blessed by having my former boss offer me a job for the summer time without even trying. Which is funny in itself because they way we saw eachother was kind of unexpected. It was the beginning of the summer and I was jobless and bored. So what does a jobless bored person do? Fish. Sadly the only real option is Salem Pond if you dont have a boat or the desire to drive a good distance. So I was set to go fishing. But in order to do so I needed a new license and some little side items. Well what better place to buy your fishing stuff then from the store you used to work at right? So I went back to Big 5 in SF and got what I needed. Now the managment is all new from when I worked here so I didnt know anyone, but I brought up to the lady if she had seen my old boss jesse. She said I ya I have, in fact he is coming down here today to help. I couldnt pass up the opportunity of bugging the guy who used to make me straighten and fix shelves all day long. So I came back later that day and after a chat he told me they needed help up in orem. So I went up the next day applyed and was instantly accepted with a raise. Talk about luck. And if you cant guess thats where I spent a good portion of the summer. Until of coarse I spent my time in canada. Which a whole story in itself. The best part about this past summer (and you only got a very small glimpse) was that I got the vision of where I want to go in life. I now have a purpose for what Im doing. And I hope Im doing it well. So yes. Summer was a good fun time. Probably more drama then I had hoped for, but in the end it turned out for the best.
My story.
Well well. Here we are. I dont know where to begin. I was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Lived in Cardston, Canada for a few years with my family before we moved to Sacramento, California for about a year. Which led to us moving back to Cardston. Not long after my mother got kidney failure and due to marriage issues divorced my father and moved to Utah to be with her moms side of the family and to have better heath care (yes obama, the grass is greener here. Dont burn it.). Well my sister and I moved down with my mom. I was about 5 and my sister was about 3. I went to aspen elementary school in Lindon Utah and let me tell you I have more memorys there then Id ever expect. Due to money issues my mom moved around the orem utah area 4 times before finding her new/current husband. Leading me to move to Provo Utah and in the end to Spanish Fork. Spanish Fork, the town where my life truly began. Thankfully, moving hasnt been an issue for the past 10 years. After choosing my education over a mission I decided to go to Snow College. This decison was probably one of the hardest I have ever made. But I know inside I made the right choice. Whether or not people agree with me has no bearing with me, I know I chose the path I was ment to take. And I have no regret in doing so. After going through a life changing year, I am now settled in Ephraim Utah going through my 3rd semester at Snow College. And although its hard, expensive, and at times very boring. I love it to death.
My goal now is to let you know how things go from here on, and maybe fill in the gaps I failed to mention.

Why the world has brought me to blogspot
Hello world. This is Darth Vader. And no luke is not my son. That was all framed thanks to some guy named George Lucas, whoever that is.
I must let the world know that blogspot is the beginning of the end of me. I am here to let you all know all the fun things that happen in the life of the one and only DVD. I must warn you, it may be boring, sometimes blunt, rude, funny, stupid, or a bunch on nonsense that really makes no sense but you keep reading it. I also am not an owner of a camera, so pictures will be few and far between.
Well world. Here I am.
Get ready for the DVD blogging experience.
