In Biloxi MS.

I survived Basic Military Training! (And live to tell about it) Take that Uncle Sam!

Still have no phone or computer!

Miss you all.

Will update more as i get more time on the internet!

Love you all!

And Nick I need your number cause i dont have my cell and I dont remember cause for the past 3 months i have had lil contact with the outside world. And I will call as soon as I can.

Dear Everyone....

2009-03-09T04:19:28Z

As I think all of you know I will be leaving for basic tomorrow for the US Air Force. All i can say is thanks for letting me get to know all of you. And I love you all. I tried to be the best friend I could be. You all have influenced me extremely positively. And I wish I could see everyone everyday. And I will be in basic for 8.5 weeks so for that time I will have no contact with the outside world. Just me, my fellow recruits and the 'awesome' Training Instructors. So all I can say is thank you all so much, I will miss all of you.

Good Luck Everyone!

Probably the greatest thing ever!

RIP Grandpa...

2009-01-01T00:28:07Z

Went to my grandfathers wake at 9am. That was good seeing family and friends and talking and paying our respects for a great man. Then we went to the Milford Episcopal Church and it was great watching my grandfather get such an honorable way of passage. Then we all met at the hall at the Parrish and there was good food and my family had one last good time for my grandpa.

Then I went home and took a nap, and now trying to figure out what to do for new years!

Political Roundtable...

2008-11-17T07:28:42Z

I was just wondering how some of my friends view certain political topics. Since I have not talked or seen many of you in awhile, I decided to see how some of you thing.

Just for starters;

1. Illegal Immigration

2. Oil Prices

3. Gay Marriage

4. Proposition 1 in MA

5. Global Warming

6. War in Iraq

7. Unemployment

8. Car Bailout

9. Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac

10. The original 850 billion dollar bailout.

Discuss!

P.S. I will post later how I feel about these topics, when its not 2:30 in the morning.

1 Failed, and Obama got elected.....

Dont you love when stuff gets rehashed or gets remade that reminds you of your childhood. Well for me that is the upcoming Mega Man 9. It makes me relive the past when me and my dad used to play the NES for hours, in all of its 8-bit glory. When the game comes out September 5th for the Nintendo Wii I will just have to get my hands on it. I am so hyped for this game its not even funny. I need it now.

It was good to see Nick Ferrero....

2008-09-22T05:21:09Z

I missed that fucking kid!

Update...

2008-09-14T09:17:49Z

Well I joined the air force for those that do not know, looking forward to it. Doing it and hoping to get into the cardiopulmonary program. To eventually get to x-ray technician once i get out. And can sign the G.I. bill to get about 60 grand for college. Also gonna be one hell of an experience. Probably gonna leave in February.

Once again I love Markham, but he has got to get his head out of his ass, or he is in for one heck of an awful awakening.

I need to visit U-mass sometime to see Nick and others.

I still work saturdays, but with new hours, instead of 2pm to 3am, its now 8pm to 3am. And since that is the new schedule I would like to go to the Boston Science Museum one of these days.

I have also lost about 30 lbs at the gym, and still going at it. Looking to get down to about 180 before I leave.

And hopefully sean gets a new job.

And same with Dewitt.

And Shelly finish that chibi. lmao

One Last Thought...

2008-07-09T05:21:46Z

I am just doing spur LJ posts, sorry people lol.

But i cant decide between Obama and McCain, so i ask is that you people pleed your cases to help me out.

Personally i cant vote for obama because he is associated with rascists and disagrees with a lot of things i stand for. ANd i think MCcain is a blithering old idiot who is bush part II and i cant stand for that , being a independent who tends to vote for republicans, but this election i think we have 2 of the worse candidates ever. But IDK so help me out peeps.

The day....

2008-07-09T05:16:08Z

I dont lose sleep over it is the day i am officially done with it.

Not Dead People :P

2008-07-09T05:05:28Z

So many questions. So few answers.

Hey guess what...now its my turn to bitch...

2008-02-04T07:17:20Z

I really dont know anymore.

Alcoholism is ruining my family. Fucking it is getting absolutely ridiculous. My brother is a effin idiot. It messed up my mother and it might hurt me or my sis. I should just stop all together. Idk.

Also i have been really depressed lately due to a lot of things. Trust me the Super Bowl outcome has nothing to do with it. It just i have lost a lot of respect in myself and my best friend. IDK just lately i see just bad and have been hearing a lot of bad shit about him. Which i hope is false, cause frankly that would make things a lot easier. maybe i dont know what i am talking about. Cause frankly i cant make my mind up about a lot things that just happen. I am pathetic i know. And yes i ramble. Fucking deal with it. I mean am i seeing my best friend become something else like other people have said or is it the fact that i have been so depressed and abosolutely effin ripshit at a lot of things, mainly myself.

Also i wish i could just get over a certain someone. I mean come on Joel you need to let go. Without being a dick or making things worse. Cause that just makes me a dick if i do something stupid and irrational. Which i am pretty sure i have. I dont blame her at all, I blame myself completely for it. I guess I am a lonely fuck who just likes to cling to the better memories. And believe it or not i may appear as a care-free type of guy who lets thing not try to botther him. But that is just a shell i put up cause frankly I get hurt easier than I appear. A lot of my friends think about that of me but only a few know about this truth. Maybe i just need a girlfriend or something...idk

Also i am at the point right now where i dread going to sleep by myself cause all i do is critique myself in the worst ways, and have nightmares from past relationships to insecurities about myself. Its not healthy i know. Hell i have more gray hairs than a effin fourty five year old. And i know my spelling sucks.

I guess from my granmda to my friends who i have felt i have lost base with, not exactly by hanging out but when we hang out i feel as if i have fucked up and things just get weird. this kinda goes with everyone and idk maybe its just me.

Also i feel pathetic cause i cant make up my mind on what i want to do in life...
Man i am so effin finicky.

I guess i just want a to say is that i am really pissed. And yes i know i have friends who have it a lot worse than me in life, but now its just my time to vent and to be ripshit because frankly i am just getting tired of it.

I guess thats it. i really could use one helluva of an ego boost...

So Have a good day!

For Joel, Sean's and Nick's Inner Geek...

Go Sox...

2007-10-25T19:24:07Z

Yep i am not dead...

2007-10-10T06:39:56Z

contrary to popular thought on livejournal...

But that being said i usually am on livejournal everyday, but usually just to read up on how people are doing.

-----------------

And now for the definition of creepy...

I thought that this goes along with Ambers struggles mighty well...

I have been up for 25 hours...

2007-07-12T00:12:42Z

About Mr. Markham...

2007-06-01T18:40:18Z

I have been best friends with the kid for over 3 years now. And what i cant seem to understand is how a lot of people get annoyed by him so fast and pretend to like him. I mean yeah he has his problems.

But what i dont get is why he comes across as such an asshole. Well i can understand some circumstances but i dont understand others.

And the other part that bothers me is that i swear i do stuff that is almost as assinine or dumb but i swear i get a pass on somethings i have done.

Frankly i just want to know, i am just curious. To make things easier use 'anonmymity." (sp?)

Thanks...

2007-05-30T15:20:05Z

to all those who wished me a Happy Birthday and went out to eat with me yesterday.

Ahh off to work...

2007-05-29T11:13:36Z

Camping...

2007-05-29T02:18:34Z

Thursday Night i picked up ryan 'butters' carroll and we just chilled and stuff and could not wait for camping. Also went to a bonfire, good stuff.

Friday me and my family woke up at 7am and left the house at 9am to go camping in Brewster to Nickerson State park for a great weekend of camping. Friday is always the setting up of the tents and just relaxing day. We met up with the Colby's a childhood family friend. They moved away to Plymouth about 5 years ago. They are wicked cool and it is good to see them once in awhile. We had burgers and dogs for lunch and ribs for dinner. We also went fishing for a good 3 hours. Then we finished the night arounnd the campfire sharing stories and good old jokes. Ryan took one helluva of a beating verbally.

For Saturday we woke up around 8ish and went to the pool at Brewster Green at about 10 am and swam around for an hour or two. Then we went fishing for awhile and i caught 2 fish. A small trout and perch. My god do i love fishing. Then we passed the football around for awhile and it was great. And once again we finsished the night with a campfire. Few things are better than that.

On Sunday we went to P-Town. Yes i have a sense of humor and its a great vacation spot. Seeing the gay crowd was great. Reminds me of my friends. (C'mon guys its just a joke). We bought ice cream from P-Town and we also saw the ships. Also went into "spank the monkey", basically the equivalent of a 'buddha's bazaar' but a little more gay orientated. It was funny as me and my brother and my friend Pat could not stop laughing the whole time. Also i saw 2 ford GT's now those are cool cars. Then around 6ish we left and went back to the campsite and just enjoyed the night with a campfire and said our final thoughts and shared food and great laughs from all.

Then on monday we left around 9am to go back to bellingham. I basically hung around with Ryan all day.

---------------------

Few things are better than camping and it is probably my favorite part of the year. I just get to kick back and relax and have fun and reminisce and just hang around with no worries. It is always the best weekend of the year.
---------------------

Oh and sean being lonely sucks but hell i have been single for a long ass time and can sorta relate what you are going through. But yours is definitely worse but hold on man. Also i know you hate when people give you advice on it but if you dont want output on it dont put it out there.
---------------------
Now back to the old schedule, (well xcept a 4 day workweek is great). Well people i am back and rejuvenated and feeling pretty damn good if you ask me.
