"Mr. Pibb + Red Vines = Crazy Delicious!"

Hello those in Blogger land. ........ wow that was the cheesiest opening I've ever done.

Ok so crazy week, but so good. The biggest blessing I feel is that the Lord has blessed our little cell phone store and we have been blessed with much business.

This week was the American Idol Finale, and usually I'm not into american Idol, but this year I just caught on I guess. I picked David Cook to win but I was rooting for David Archuleta to win. After Tuesday's show it looked like Archuleta had it in the bag, but to everyone's suprise Cook pulled the victory. And yes I know Archuleta will get offered record deals but, it still would have been cool if he won. But like I said before, "The Jazz and David Archuleta: 2 Things from Utah that got screwed." But they're both talented.



The weather in Cedar has been crazy. Rain, coldness, and awkward periods of warmth.

Oh last Saturday my friends and I went and played with Diet Coke and Mentos. It was my first time doing it and I thought it was awesome! Plans are brewing for a D.C. and Mentos fight coming this summer: 2 Teams, 50 Bottles each, 1 extremely sticky day. :)

I'm making some new friends, but I still miss so many. One Especially, you know who you are.... (crumbs) :)

Next week also marks my 23rd birthday, Oy that getting old.

So until later Blogger world...... ugh, still cheesy.

Idols, Fouls, & Werewolves

Good day.
<-----Do I not have the cutest Niece and Nephew? This is from Avery's first Birthday party.
So here am I in Cedar City, kind of bored. This past weekend was great though. I went home to Tooele for Mother's Day. It a 3 1/2 hour drive each way so my butt was considerably sore. It amazes me how a butt could get sore. I mean isn't that what it's designed for? Thats like saying your teeth got sore from chewing.
Home was great. How I LOVE my family. It was loud in the house, mostly on the behalf of my brother Darin, but it was great. We popped popcorn in a big brown bag like we used to, and we just sat around and chatted. Sunday I went to the old family ward, then swung by the singles ward to visit some friends. I miss that ward. Any notion of what you think a singles ward is, come true as you attend. But if fun in a dorky way. But I figured I surrendered my coolness a long time ago, so might as well laugh.
Came home and took a nap with Mom. Oh! I forgot my little Brother Elder Matt Bruns called Sunday morning. It was good to hear his voice. I loaded him with advice like always. That's the thing anytime anyone is going on a mission I just load them up with advice and stories. I figure if I was a Grandpa my mission would be like the civil war stories I would tell.
Dinner at home was great. I got my Mom an iPod Shuffle and she loved it. Welcome to the 21st century Mom!
This week has been ok. It's really weird not having everyone around. The NBA Playoffs have been on and usually I don't care for Basketball, but I think my exposure to it has been changing me. It is actually interesting now. Although I had to ask a guy what a field goal was. :p
I've also got into American Idol. I'm a fan of David Archuleta and he made it into the Finale. Go Utah! If only the Jazz could get into the finals....
I've also been reading "New Moon" in the Twilight series. It's not bad, not as good as the first, but it's picking up.



So "The Office" Season Finale is tonight and if there is a pattern it shant be one to disappoint.

My Top Ten Movies

I've been thinking about this blog entry for a while. It's taken me so long to write probably because it's too hard to determine you Top Ten Movies, but after much soul-searching and thought here is my Top Ten. (Note: Subject to Change)

10."Hot Rod" (2007)


A really hilarious movie that few people know about. This is one of those movies where you don't mind paying $20 for. It's full of dumb humor, which has been referred to as Napoleon Dynamite-type humor. I think it's definetly better.




9."While You Were Sleeping" (1995)



I gotta have one chick-flick in there. And this is probably the best one I can think of. I think this one is subject to change. It's a good hearted movie. I think the movie is saved by the cameo of Joe Jr. Whenever he's on screen the movie just gets better.





8."Dumb And Dumber" (1994)



Ok, who doesn't like this movie? Whenver somebody quotes this movie, it just seems to say to me" Yeah, I'm THAT cool" and then they are instant friends. It's so quotable and hilarious.



7."Hairspray" (2007)



My favorite movie of 2007. Musicals have always been special, but this one blows a lot of them out of the park. It's just a good solid movie.





6."Jurassic Park" (1993)


The one movie I wish I could have seen in theaters, but unfortunately I wasn't 13. :( Amazing movie with beautiful screenplay. Too bad for the butt sequels that had to follow. Oh, by the way. In Jurassic Park III when the T-Rex and Spinosaraus fight, why did the T-Rex lose? I was actually saddened by that. We all love the T-Rex. Oy, anybody who wants to hear my gripe with the 3rd movie just ask.



5."Back To The Future" (1985)



A favorite since I was a kid. The BTTF Series is one of the only solid trilogies in existence. This show led to by cursing problem when I was a kid. (But has since been amended) This show also led to my life long dream of owning a DeLorean.




4."Stranger Than Fiction" (2006)


Interesting film with an interesting plot, kind of make you think, but not too much. Brilliantly casted, (especially with Emma Thompson) and good hearted story-line with rich visuals.



3."Casino Royale" (2006)

Ok, now down to action. This is one of those movies I could watch one night and perfectly be fine watching it again. My favorite James Bond played amazingly by Daniel Craig. Plus it has poker which I love.





2."My Date With Drew" (2004)



A documentary that few people have heard of. But it's AMAZING! The synopsis is that a joe schmoe has 30 days to get a date with Drew Barrymore. It a amazing show which is all about chasing your dreams.







AND THE #1 MOVIE IS.......





1. "Signs" (2002)



"What??? Are you serious? You like that movie?!?" This is what I usually hear when I tell people that this is the favorite. Prepare yourselves, for I am ready to fight Manfully for this Movie! It's Brilliant, amazing score, amazing casting, with a rich story that you draw more from every time you see it. SO Good! And it scared the Oreo Filling out of me the first time I watched it.

Vampires & Loneliness

Wow, it's been a while since I've "blogged" and a lot to get through. Well, my 2nd semester at SUU is done! It's been a crazy semester! I'm glad it's over and I'm actually looking forward to Fall. Starting then I'm going to take a lot more classes and jump start my education.
It seems that at the end of the year a lot of people decide to get their last wants out. What I mean is.... girls. It has seemed that more so this week than any other one more girls have expressed interest in me than ever before. It's kind of weird. I've never been the smooth type, a little awkward, and I'm still so used to being the overlooked nerd. Oh well, they're all pretty cool but, still looking.
This week has been so sad, my best friends are leaving. Brian Wall and Bryce Daley are gone. These two fellas have been the best room mates a fella could ask for. Between the inside jokes, tackling each other, going on Wendy's runs it seems good times are severely lacking lately.I miss you guys!

In my loneliness, I finished my finals, moved 2 doors down and on the way to making new friends. Also I've also buckled down and bought the book, "Twilight.It's an amazing book so far,... a little mushy but good."
So let's see where this chapter of my life leads!
