Better Late Than Never

Well one holiday just passed us and another is approaching right around the corner. I thought i would take some time and reflect on Halloween and share a story which might have been the scariest time of my life, at the time. My one good Halloween story took place a long time ago, i must have been twelve or thirteen. So when your at that age what do you do on Halloween... go trick-or-treating? Nope not us! we decided that we were going to the corn maze! We basically wanted to scare ourselves to death and thats what we came up with, the local corn maze, in Huntsville, Alabama. A group of my friends and I dug into our piggy banks and hitched a ride with the neighborhood mom with the biggest mini-van and headed thirty minutes out to the middle of no where. The whole drive we were exchanging stories about what we heard about the maze and well i was freaking out. Let me just say this before i continue i USED to be the biggest pansy when it came to stuff like this, i hated scary movies, i would not walk anywhere in the dark, and i hated people jumping out at me screaming in my face. What a death trap i was getting myself into... im just a lil twelve year old kid i dont know better! I have to say i was warned, my parents warned me not to go that i wouldnt be into this kind of thing, but i was out to prove them other wise and the girl was crushing on hardcore was coming along. You better bet your bottom dollar im going! We all arrived hopped out of the mini-van and dumped out our loose piggy bank change to get the orange ticket. We asked how long it takes to get through the lady answered "anywhere from an hour to three hours" say what?! Keep in mind while she is saying this in the background you can hear high pitched screams and chainsaws. I should have seen the red flags but there was no turning back now the girl i was crushing on was there i can just leave! i would have been ruined! Right before entering we all bought glow sticks half of us purple and the other half green. We were going to compete to see which team would get through the fastest. So lucky and naturally i got the same glow stick color as "her". We entered (bad idea) a few scares here and there and im already freaking out but there is no way im showing it cause i dont want her to see i cant handle this. Well about half way through we are running and i get separated after some crazed killer is chasing us through the maze. I turn the corner and the green glow sticks are no where to be found and im alone. Awesome. So i try no to loose it and just trace my steps backward thinking i may have missed a turn. Post turning the corner i bump into Micheal Myers (the guy from "Halloween" the movie) i scream bloody murder cause he was my most feared character and as if screaming wasn't enough he took my glow stick backed me up in a corner threw my glow stick on the ground and chomped it up into peices with what i thought was a fake knife... guess not. I will not describe to you my reaction to what he did to my glow stick. I escaped the near death experience cause when my adrenaline kicked in aint nothing stopping me from getting the heck out of that maze. I am a sprinter i was fast, ran track almost my whole life. Well it paid off i was just cutting corners and not looking back things would jump out at me and i would already be gone. I end up passing my team and keep running for the gold. When all the sudden... light appeared i had finished! Turning the corner to find out... it was the half way point. My team followed in from behind me and out of breath we all laughed cause we were only half way done with this hell hold. You could not pay me to finish the next half of that maze, but she was watching and just as i entered the first time i was about to enter a second time. The things we do for love. So we did just that, entered in a second time. This girl that was crushing on was out of her mind scared though and its not helping me! I already cant handle this and her she is freaking me out more! But its all good cause she was leaning me to keep her from being scared little does she know how i feel i wanted to lean on her! I was scared too this isnt fair and some how we end up in the front (now everyone knows your dont want to be in the front cause when something jumps out your suddenly in the back!) There also wasnt a "we" are in the front its just me in the front cause she is hiding her face in my back, and now everyone is looking for me to lead this whole group through this maze. Ha, yeah right! But i had no choice, it was all up to me now. Then we hear the chainsaw, i dont think a girl has jumped into my arms faster than she did when that chainsaw started up. Any other time i would be happy, but this time it was a burden. I did not know how i was going to how this girl with texas chainsaw massacre guy coming towards us. I froze. I could not move the fear was just eating me alive, then he turned the corner. I dont think i have ever dropped a girl but hey there is a first time for everything right? No no no im just kidding! With her in my arms and me screaming like girl i closed my eyes and he ran right past us to chase my other friends who ran. Only for me to realize the end of the maze was right in front of us. Thats when i bolted out of there and the parents laughing at us at the finish, which i did not find anything funny about the situation. She was striped from my arms and i was hero of the day. Go figure, i didnt see that one coming. Then She asked "where you not scared i didnt hear you scream once?!" To which my reply "oh what? oh yeah na, scared ha?" Little does she know :)

Mondays

You might have a case of the Mondays... But soo do I. I had one of my not so great weekends recently im not going to say the worst cause i believe this can be beat easily with someone else's story but to me it sucked. So i worked all weekend and practically like a slave cause, well im not exactly getting paid the big bucks... surprise surprise! So on Saturday morning my first day off in a while i decide im going to treat myself and whats better than a chick-fil-a chicken biscuit in the morning after a great nights sleep. Turns out i slept longer than i thought which is not a big deal but they close that breakfast menu at 10:30! I woke up at 10:15 so i jump out of bed and race to chick-fil-a unfortunately im not over exaggerating the racing part... cause i came down a hill and boom my dreams where shot. The smell of the biscuit in my car, the butter smears all over my steering wheel, having crumbs in car non of this will take place because this luxurious breakfast item is now unconquerable. Why? Well some cop on a motorcycle decided to clock me... and that ended in a $240 ticket and no chick-fil-a biscuit. So i turn and go home watch my hard work fly out the window in two seconds to pay for the ticket and no hopes of getting a biscuit for awhile cause like i said it was Saturday morning... they are closed on Sunday, just when your craving for chick-fil-a hits its peak. So yeah that was Saturday not Monday, i understand but all this adds up for a worse Monday cause those things stick with you. So Monday rolls around, and in my stubbornness im still stuck on the fact that i never got my chicken biscuit and got a nice ticket instead, but there was nothing i could do about it now so i try to shrug it off and go back to work. I get off work at 2 and well i have class at 2. for some reason this didnt register in my head that i need travel time! So 1:50 rolls around and it hits me... I have to leave. So i bust out the door and race to class. Now lets pause for a second here. First off all you readers that try to ruin the ending for yourself and convince yourself that im about to get another ticket... your wrong. While driving im currently contemplating whether i want to drive all the way to class just for one class and be late or if i just skip it and go home. Well i decided it was better for me to go to class, but im not going in my work clothes. So while driving (sorry mom) i change clothes. It takes 30 minutes for me to get from work to my seat in class. So i knew i was going to be a solid 20 minutes late. I get to class ticket-less thank God, and we are only watching some movie. Well crap i came all this way for some stupid video on marriage (like this is going to effect me in my immediate future). Since we are watching this video the lights are dim and my chair is on the other side of the class room, Perfect. I walk/duck under the TV and proceed to my desk trying to be all smooth because well there are some cute girls in the class and this was toward the beginning of the semester and you got to make a good impression right... well in my swag i nailed the desk. This desk is bolted into the ground and it was front and center where everyone could see and it hurt. I did not see this coming. When i nailed the desk trying to be smooth everyone busted a chuckle. So with my hurt bummed out leg and my now red face i turn to sit when my backpack gets caught on the chair and drops to the ground, awesome. Not to mention some girl turns and says "smooth" i laughed it off while thinking... "No thats what i was going for." Then after everyone calmed down from there stupid giggles the video starts to glitch, perfect. I then looked to find out we had a sub-professor (who does that?!?! just cancel class) and she said "oh well" and turns the video off and says "have a good day." Okay at this point im having a silent panic attack. I came all this way get an education and 5 minutes after i enter you say have a good day, and my day is not going good! Oh Heck No. Then again what can you do? I came to the realization i drove all this way to come to class just for enough time for me to embarrass myself and leave. Awesome. Thats my case of the Mondays.

This Might Get Bloody

Well readers im back in Gainesville so that means more blog post! Hopefully... This summer was one of the best and i will keep throwing stories from my event full past over the next couple post. The most vivid part of my summer was also the most painful. Over the summer i had the best job in the world, i was a pool manager. So i got paid to tan and look at beautiful women. Along with the manager position i was a dive coach for our pools league. If you dont know much about diving there is a part of the dive meets that is called open where basically anyone any age can dive and score points for your team. So i thought i would dive open for the next meet we had. The day of the meet, i happened to be working as well and about hour before my shift ended i was going to practice some dives for that night. My first dive was reverse 1 1/2 with a 1/2 twist, if you dont know what that is check the video. Anyways during my rotation i heard this loud pop as if the board snapped or came loose or something, but after completing my flip i realized... the board hit my head. Being the manager i cant allow blood to get into the pool or we would have to close for the day so i got out of the water as fast as i could and assessed the situation. My first question... Am i bleeding? The answer haha heck yes. I looked down at the ground and sure enough i saw red dripping from the top of my head. Now all of this took place around two o'clock that afternoon and i had not eaten all day, this is what scared me the most. The pain was not as bad as i always imagined when i feared hitting the board, so that was a plus. While bleeding i nonchalantly moon walked my way to the first aid office. See i had to stay calm because i was already loosing blood at such an extensive rate and if i freaked out and made my heart race the amount of blood loss would increase therefore causing my chances of passing out much more probable. Where one of my guards was sitting. I didnt know how bad it was until i saw his face. My face was covered in blood along with half my chest. My next and only other question was staples or stitches? To find out we sat down and they poured cold water on my head and quickly said staples. At that same time i looked down to make sure no blood was getting on my friends bathing suit that i borrowed that day and a pool of blood fell into my hands. This was bad... see i have not eaten all day and my head is gushing blood. Its only a matter of time until i pass out which would make for a really fun trip to the hospital. After dropping the pool of blood onto the hot pool deck i asked umm who wants to take me to the hospital? Some lady volunteered and we where off i made it to the hospital completely coherent and filled out some insurance information at the ER and then proceeded to the room where eight staples would be pushed into my head. Now this was the worst part, see in order to put staples in your head you need a lil help from a numbing agent. So the doc stuck a shot directly into the gash in my head. Five or ten minutes later staples started crunching into my head. I couldnt really feel it but i could hear a crunch every staple that was stuck into my head. That sensation will send chills down your spine. After four staples placed into my wound the doc decided two where out of place, so he just took em out and stuck in four more. Eight staples later i was put back together again. Unfortunately i was not able to dive that night but we still won the meet and i got hooked up with some free ice cream.

Mystery Post (Deep Dark Secret)

I know that you were very determined to find out what this mystery post is about. That’s why I am going to reveal my deepest and dark kept secret. I figured it’s the least I can do since you took time out of your day/life to come and read the blog! So although I have more than one deep dark kept secret I can only reveal one, at least for now. I also have to remind you that this is a secret and please don’t tell anyone the contents of this mystery post. If you enjoy the information given then please simply refer the blog to someone else and have them decipher for themselves! Now for the secret you have anxiously been waiting for… in the second grade I had this huge crush on this girl. I knew from the moment I saw her that this girl was “The One” if you know what I mean! She just looked so cute on those monkey bars during recess, her hair was as if it was handpicked from the sun by the gods and placed on this beautiful female, her outfits where always color coordinated to match the flowers blooming in the spring. Every day I would wake up and put on my best Nikes, hop on my red bicycle and with a love struck heart ride to school. So as soon as my heart couldn’t take it anymore I knew the next step was to kiss this girl. I knew deep down that it would seal the deal and by a miracle my heart would belong to her and hers to mine. So on the way to recess, we lined up against the wall my alphabetical order. This was my time to shine I knew the time was right and my heart did as well. The only problem was she was not in position for me to just turn around and kiss her because her last name was not close to Miller. Therefore not only would I have risk the option for rejection but I could get rejected and in trouble for jumping out of line, jumping out of line would not only cause huge chaos but it would sent the whole class back into the room and no recess for the day. This consequence would ruin me forever. I would be labeled as the kid that held back recess that beautiful Thursday afternoon. This was the consequence I could live with because she was more beautiful than any day and if it was between her and the sun I would be one nocturnal son of a gun. Standing there in the midst of the line smashed between two tall suffocating from the muggy thick air, considering all consequences of my next action, I went for it. The timing was perfect, see Ms. Beautiful was toward the back of the line and the teacher was walking from the back of the line toward the front. The teacher passed me and I was off, faster than any race horse I jumped the gun took my chances and ran toward the back of the line, grabbed the love of my life (so I thought at the time) and said… April fools blog readers! This story is a true story I just can’t finish it due to the fact it is April fools! If you really want to know the real rest of the story I will tell you just ask. Thanks for participating in my one joke of the day!

Love Love Love

Well as many singles are aware valentines day is just around the corner. If your single, like myself, then you know what i mean. We are stupped into believing a total lie, What lie? The lie that v-day (short for valentines day) is the day for love to flow through the air and lift your spirits or maybe go out on an edge for the first time and make it known to the world that you admire that perfect someone. Whether or not love is flowing through the air i guess can be debatable, but studies have shown that going out on the edge for the first time is just cheesy. Its true and the numbers dont lie abcnews did a survey on women and 62.6% agree its cheesy to go on a first date for v-day. So guys we are put in a lose lose situation on v-day. If we ask her out its cheesy and if we dont make a move, we are lame. One thing is for sure though, she will never forget that cheesy move you pulled on her, but its your job to make it worth while. So who made this hell holiday to torcher us singles and make couples empty their wallets? "...Its origins stem from fertility festivals of ancient Rome, when young women were not given candy or flowers. They were whipped with strips of animal hide because they believed that this would make them more fertile. A couple of centuries later, Christians celebrated a priest named Valentine, who secretly performed marriage ceremonies for soldiers when the emperor had forbidden it. By the 1400's Valentine's Day was firmly established in England, but the emphasis was on little rituals, such as drawing names out of a bowl, to discover the identity of one's true love."
-About.com:Mental Health

All this talk about love must being killing some singles out there so i did some research with my partners at Google and came across this singles survival kit on v-day.

1. Do not define yourself by your relationship status. Your relationship status is not your identity.

2. If you are single because of a recent loss, allow this to be a day of grieving. Do not pretend that it’s not a hard day. Get support and sympathy.

3. Realize that Valentine’s Day is a commercial holiday. It is not about love and relationships; it is about selling flowers, candy, and diamond jewelry. Think of all the money you are saving.

4. Plan well in advance to do something that will not place you in the path of billing and cooing couples. Even if you usually like dining out alone, do something else on Valentine’s Day.

5. Get together with people who do love you -- friends, family members, the people who already have relationships with you.

6. If you are single and you don’t want to be, start now to think about what is in the way of you creating the relationship you want. Find ways to work on becoming the person your dream partner would fall in love with. Start therapy. Take up yoga. Begin to volunteer. Create art. Make meaning. Act to change the world. It is into the fullest lives that love is most likely to fall.

7. If you are single and you like it, now is the time to affirm your choice. People who never marry or partner have close, loving, emotionally intimate relationships and lives worth living. Do not let a couple-driven culture define your choice as something wrong.

Hope this helps and wish everyone a Happy Valentines Day!

Pain

Pain: An unpleasant sensation that can range from mild, localized discomfort to agony. Pain has both physical and emotional components. The physical part of pain results from nerve stimulation. Pain may be contained to a discrete area, as in an injury, or it can be more diffuse, as in disorders like fibromyalgia. Pain is mediated by specific nerve fibers that carry the pain impulses to the brain where their conscious appreciation may be modified by many factors.

Pain is also a term specifically used to denote a painful uterine contraction occurring in childbirth.

The word "pain" comes from the Latin "poena" meaning a fine, a penalty.

-Comes from Medterms.com

Why am I writing about pain? Because i experienced a ton of it this past week. This post is not to scare anyone or talk anyone out of the topic being discussed which is tattoos. Thats right this week i got a tattoo on my ribs. It is 13 characters in Greek that translate into Forgiven. I was very well aware of what i was getting myself into when i went to perform this act. I honestly wanted it in the most painful place possible after all it does say forgiven. This meaning Christ forgave me for my sins and he did so buy the cross. So when i wanted the word forgiven in the most painful spot on my body, my thoughts where i wanted just a taste of what Christ went through to give me such a precious gift, that being: dying on the cross for my sins. Nevertheless i did experience such pain. Thirteen characters of Greek lettering went on some of the most sensitive spots on my body. When that tattoo artist "Larry" hit my ribs with tattoo gun (if thats the proper term) it felt like a pain that i have never felt before. You would think you would start to grow a immunity to the pain, but no. While Larry was racking my ribs the whole ribcage is vibrating in synchronization. It felt like my ribs where an orchestra and Larry was the director. This band went on for hour and they hit the high notes the whole time. By the time Larry was done at what he does best I was overjoyed that it was over and now it just feels like a sunburn. I love my tattoo and look at it everyday and thank God for sending his only son to die on the cross for our sins.

If you would like to see pics then request me on facebook if you haven't already and ill have pics of it soon.

Facts!

I am taking this bio course at eight in the morning every Tuesday and Thursday and it is just short of hell. Sorry science majors and or lovers, but i absolutely hate bio, but i love the human body, weird? No i like things more on a macro level my questions are not "Why does the ribosomes make proteins that enter in the nucleus pores to sustain our nucleus just to get sent back out of the nucleus in the form of messenger RNA and happen all over again?" No way. I like questions like "How can my breathing and stance help my back pain?" So not that bio inspired me to write this post (cause it does not inspire me the least bit) but it did get me thinking and i looked up some interesting human body facts that you may know already but hopefully not.

  8. The color blue has a calming effect it causes the brain to release calming hormones.
  9. When you blush so does the inside of your stomach.
  10. The sound you hear when you crack your knuckles is actually the sound of nitrogen gas bubbles bursting.
  11. It takes 20 seconds for a red blood cell to circle the whole body.
  12. Women blink nearly twice as much as men.
  13. Every 2000 frowns creates one wrinkle.
  14. You use an average 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile.
  15. 50,000 of your cells in your body will die and be replaced with new cells, all while you have been reading this sentence.
  16. There are 45 miles of nerves in your skin.
  17. Your stomach has to produce a new layer of mucus every two weeks or else it will disgust itself.
  18. The brain cannot feel pain.
  19. The acid in your stomach can dissolve razorblades.
  20. Feet have 500,000 sweat glands and can produce over a pint of sweat a day.
  21. You can retain 50,000 scent through your nose.
  22. A full bladder is roughly the size of a softball.
  23. A sneeze exits the body at over 100 mph and kills brain cells.
  24. Your left lung is smaller than the right to make room for your heart.
  25. Every human body on average contains enough: Sulfur to kill all the fleas on a dog, carbon to make 900 pencils, potassium to fire a toy cannon, fat to make 7 bars of soap, phosphorous to make 2200 match heads, and enough water to fill a 10-gal tank.

Movie Critic

I am no movie critic, but i will be today. When i went home recently i saw most of the top box office movies and now i thought i would share with my readers what was good or not. In other words what to see and what to stay away from!

Avatar
3.5 out of 5
If you like sci fi, action, and smurf romance this one is for you. As for me this movie did not live up to the hype. This is a very long movie and dont fall asleep or it hard to follow, but good luck trying to stay awake. Although Avatar earned a whooping 68.4M the first weekend this movie only got its stars for special effects. We all know everyone has to see it and i agree this one is one you have to see only so you can be up with the talk around town and find out for yourself if this one is for you. Is the 3D worth it? NO!!! The extra two bucks you save from 3D go get a soda this one is longwinded. The thing about 3D is they have not perfected it. There are no arrows that come hit your face or intense sences where you feel as though your right there. Save your money, but see the movie. This type of movie is personal choice!

Sherlock Holmes
4 out of 5
This one is a must see. Robert Downey Jr. is a man of an actor and plays the role very well. With an outstanding cast and better acting this one will see you awake and thrilled. Sherlock Holmes is filled with comedy some romance and of course action. This is a puzzle that you should pay to see. Dont wait till redbox they deserve more head to your nearest theater and enjoy.

Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel
???
I can not review this movie i was not fortunately able to make it. If you have any comments or would like to review please do so under comments.

It's Complicated
???
I as well did not see this one, but a close reliable source confirms. STAY AWAY! Are you ready for old people getting it? No this one is not suitable for children and the cast is one that you love or hate. Not recommended for a date night.

The Blind Side
4.5 out of 5
Did you like Rudy? Remember the Titans? well then this is the movie for you. This is one for the whole family from what i can remember. I usually do not like Sandra Bullock, but she is a great job fitting the character. She was pretty, funny, and a Tennessee woman. Her husband in the movie (Tim Mcgraw) does not belong in movies, but his part was small enough that it didnt make a difference. Your going to fall in love with "Big Mike" so get ready. Also keep in mind the Quinton Aaron (Big Mike) has done very few movies, but he fit the role perfect for his story in life was just like that of the movie... somewhat. This one only gets a 4.5 and beats Sherlock Holmes because it has to do with football and it got me holding back tears. This one is a must.

Up in the Air
3 out of 5
I still have mixed feelings about this one. This one is sllllloooooooowwwww. But i was not at all mad i think i liked it. George Clooney is such a great actor and makes the movie. The girl they picked to play the co-star role fits the build, but does not at all deserve the role. Her acting was terrible and i was not beliving a minute of what she was saying. She brought the rating down alone. Things to be aware of; a great twist that in turn makes a good movie and close your eyes in one scene, but no interaction takes place. This one is a rental dont waste your money in theaters.

The Princess and the Frog
???
I refuse

Did You Hear Abour the Morgans?
???
Although i wanted to see this one i could not pull someone else along with me, but i have some reliable sources who quote is was clean, funny, and okay. Dont watch the previews it will ruin some of the movie. Since your not going to watch the previews here is a short summary of te movie: A divorced couple Sara Jessica Parker and Hugh Grant witness a murder. They are summoned to the witness protection program and forced to live together. The rest is for you to find out. Cant find a date? Call me i would love to see this one.

Invictus
2 out of 5
To start off this one is a rental, not from blockbuster they will charge you too much hit this one up at redbox and only get it for one night its not worth over a dollar. This one is slow, acting is good, and the end is what you expect. To be honest i didnt even know it was the final game in the end. The reason i gave any stars at all is i did get some butterflys and the music was amazing. Also they did a great job fitting the build of the characters. Redbox it!

Nine
???
Serioulsy?

Thats all the top box office hits and my personal opinion. Now for the video of the day and the shocker of the break. Shocker? Because i was shocked about how much i liked it.

The First Day

I am currently halfway through my first day back to class. Not only was it an eight o' clock class, but it was also biology. I hate science. Today i was reminded of how important the first day back was. So i am going to name some important steps to take on the first day. Getting up at the right time so your not stressed and rushed out is prominent. Next, for girls its picking out the right outfit, dress to impress. First impressions can be make you or break you. Now get to school ten to fifteen minutes before class depending on if you know where your going. If you know exactly where your going and happen to land a good parking spot stall in your car until five minutes prior to class. You dont want to be late or too early or the next couple steps are going to be a challenge. To go on the walk into class is crucial, not only timing, but the way you walk, how your access the room, and the most important where you pick your seat (not to mention all this must be done in 2.5 seconds or less any more time you will look dumb founded and again the next steps will be tough)! Now this is going to be a sexist post since im not a hundred percent sure how girls do the following so this is from a guys point of view. Guys when you walk in the room you want to act like you know what your doing. First make sure your walking into the right room it is absolutely embarrassing to sit in the wrong class. The first thing you look for is a cute girl to sit NEAR not next to. Sitting right next to her is coming on too strong and too fast. Girls like the chase, so pick a seat that is near her so your telling her "hey im here". Also if you pick the seat next to her you may come to find out you dont like what you got yourself into, so be careful! So if all works out your sitting in a good spot not to far and not too close to her. Now lets say another guy walks in and sits next to her that means A) He didnt read the blog and your still in B) she is taken (this could be drawn from conclusions... hopefully) or C) There friends. Most likely your still in, just play your cards right and you have a semester to do so. Dont take too long or you will be kicking yourself. Now if your like me and have my luck, you walk in the correct room, you access the room and come to find out that there is nothing that peaks your interest. At this time your seat choosing must be flawless. While accessing the room you dont want to sit too close to the professor but not too far or your out of site and mind and your brain will not function, you will choose to play tetris or text your friends and fail out and on your way back home before you know it. Ok so you have picked a general area you would like to sit now check to see if its safe. By safe i mean, what if "that girl" is late, so this is when you choose a seat that if "she" walks in late "she" will still notice you and hopefully sit near you. She will never sit next to you unless its the only seat in this case dont feel special, you where her only option. Remember girls like the game so she wont sit next to you, but there must be a game to be played. So like i said pick a seat where she will come near you. Keep in mind she is late so she is not going to walk in front or behind the entire class. So dont sit on the opposite side of the room. If you choose to sit on the opposite side you will end up loosing because she will walk in and your on the wrong side and next class rolls around and boom your on her side, in this case she knows she's got you and sometimes this can mean game over. All of that was just sitting. To move on if you get lucky and you choose the perfect seat and your comfortable then your golden. Now lets say you have second thoughts about your seat and you want to move... its too late live to try again. To wrap things up your sitting there, she is near you, its your turn to make the first move. She needs something that will stick with her on your first impression and no your cologne wont do the trick. This is where you have to step in and only a golden opportunity awaits. Dont get anxious a time will come for this situation. A good example is... class is over everyone is leaving your walking out together, so open the door for her. Now if she doesn't say anything and does not acknowledge your existence then GOOD LUCK! But if she does say a simple thank you or smiles cause she is shy then your in the pilot seat. She will know get out her phone and call her friends and say "i saw this cute guy who doesn't sit next to me but close enough and on our way out he got the door for me." Opening the door is good enough for you to stick on her mind. Be aware, i must warn you if you choose to open the door for her, you have now set the bar and you must open every door for her from now on. Play your cards right and you will be fine and wait to the opportunity's arise dont force one. The first day is always important like i said first impressions can make you or break you. Follow these steps i have listed and your golden, but thats no guarantee. Good Luck.

Giving

Well followers, viewers, listeners, stockers, and readers im back. I would like to start off my first post of the new year to say... Happy New Years! I hope everyone had a great break and i hope the best for you all in 2010. Now the boring stuff is over I would like to update you on the latest. One thing i always tell people when i refer them to TheKoryMiller.blogspot.com is that its not a twitter site, meaning i dont write about how my day is going or not going. Yes, some of my post do include just that but thats not my aim. Today that will change just for this New Years Post. I would like to fill in my readers about how great my whole Christmas break was and why it was the best. We all hear the saying or fact, that Christmas is the giving season. We all like to give, but more like to receive, everyone is guilty there. This Christmas we choose to give. Around this season a popular question to ask while making small talk is "Well what did you get for Christmas?!" and kindly with a smile on my face i would love to reply... "Nothing", but that would be a lie. I did receive gifts from extended family which i loved i thoroughly enjoyed all gift cards and money they will definitely see action. What im trying to get at is my immediate family and i choose not to exchange gifts. We also informed Santa of our wishes and he understood and skipped our house. Now instead of giving one another gifts we decided to "bless" (if thats the right word) another family in need. We found the perfect family whose mother works two and a half jobs and looks after four growing children. So on Christmas Eve the Miller Family set off to target to find the ultimate gifts for these kids. The flaw about this family and our family is they have one boy and three girls we just have three boys and four with my dad and a loving mother who doesnt buy for smaller girls all the time. So needless to say the boy got hooked up for sure and the girls... well i hope and pray they loved there gifts. Thats one thing we will never know. We would have loved to see there faces as they opened there gifts, but we were not that fortunate. Even not seeing there faces this was the best Christmas yet. I hope that we will continue this tradition and i hope if others have the opportunity to do the same. It is truly a blessing to bless. Giving is whats its all about. God bless and Merry Christmas.

P.S.- We heard there faces were overjoyed.
