  • Graduation & Big Jud’s

    Last Thursday and Friday was graduation.  It is hard to believe it actually happened!  It’s been a lot of fun and hard work.  I have a lot of mixed emotions, as I’m sure most graduates do.  I will miss friends and associations, but look forward to getting on with the rest of my life.  I wish the BYU-Idaho class of 2009 the best of luck!

    After graduation my room mates and I (and Adam’s brother and our friend Victoria) went to Big Jud’s.  After that we all parted and went our separate ways.

  • New Microsoft Ad / Spoof

    I got a good chuckle out of this. I think this spoof is closer to reality then what MS is doing with their ads.

    **Elder Dallin H. Oaks

    Matthew 16:24-25 – 24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
    25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.

    **President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

    Today is palm Sunday.
    This is a race of endurance, we need to apply and reapply the principles every day of our life.
    Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We need to get off the sidelines, and practice what we preach.

  • Ubuntu 9.04

    It’s that time of year again! Ubuntu 9.04 is on its way.  For a list of new features click on the Ubuntu icon.  Why do I mention Ubuntu before each release?  Although I’m an avid Mac user, I believe that Ubuntu is a valid alternative for those who cannot run a Mac on their existing hardware.  Windows is my least choice of all 😉

  • Another Semester Gone…

    Next week is the end of Winter Semester 2009 here at BYU-Idaho. It also happens to be my last semester as a student here. That’s right–I’m graduating. I’ll be a graduated student with a degree in Computer Information Technology. It’s been a good semester, as well as a good experience. In the beginning all thoughts and emotions say that it can’t get over fast enough. But now that it’s finally here it’s a bag of mixed emotions. I’ve made a lot of good friendships over the years and have had a lot of fun, but as with all things it eventually comes to an end.

  • Yeah… It happens…

    A friend of mine from school (Erik Lindstrom) came up this weekend to go riding. He did pretty good, but it was his first time. Needless to say, he found the creek…

  • Spring is coming…

    March is here, and along with it signs of Spring, and one of those signs is the birth of new baby calves in the beef heard.

  • Follow Me on Twitter
