28 things...
I just read my sister in-law's (Jo's) blog, and she has "109th post," and has written 109 things about her in honor of said post. Well, I decided that I don't want to think of 109 things, nor do I want to wait until I hit some "expected" number. I figured 28, while not a prime number, is still a random number to make a list of things about me.
1- No cilantro, no matter what. No battle.
2- I'm a capricorn by tradition, but if you actually look at the astrological signs of the zodiac, it has shifted from the time of their first conception, due to the fact that the earth's rotation on its axis is not a perfect circle. It wobbles to some degree. That, paired with the fact that the signs of the zodiac are not all the same size, one will take 40+ days to travel the sky, while another may only take less than 10. So, I am not really a capricorn. In fact, the knowledge of these facts means that I am, in actuality, single.
3- I do stand up comedy. I try to be funny. Hence, I try to pay rent.
4- I'm an advertising major by tradition, a techie / Adobe Creative Suite support guy by pay. (It seems to me that no one else in the Ad Lab takes the time to learn anything about being an art director... they simply ask me how to do it. Next time, I'll tell them, "google.")
5- I have the chest of a 12 year-old girl. 24 hour fitness and I are trying to change that.
6- I served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints from 2002-2004.
7- That mission was in Minnesota and Wisconsin.
8- That mission was freezing cold 274 (give or take a few...) days out of the year.
9- I am going to be living in New York this summer. I am going as an intern with [most likely] McCann-Erickson, a sweet agency there.
10- I hate people who don't know how to drive. They could be on their way back from giving presents to kids at an orphanage and on their way to save puppies from a burning pet store... but if they cut me off or don't accelerate properly, they are a savage monster to me.
11- I never sleep normal hours.
12- I think dating, as we have it today, is the downfall of society. I want to ride up, on a horse, to a girl's house and say, "May I court your daughter?" If she agrees, move forward. If not, go home, get off the horse and play halo.
13- I'm 6'2"
14- That's roughly 188cm
15- Or .0012 miles.
16- I can't believe I am actually doing this.
17- If you were to add up all of the all-nighters I have pulled this school year, you'd cry yourself to sleep. I'll try to work quiet, so that I don't wake you back up.
18- I'm an art director, but I like to write.
19- Is one less than 20.
20- Is one more than 19.
21- I have a blue dot on my nose that resembles either a piercing (which would be a symbol of lost innocence in my youth), or a mark of pen on my nose. Either way, it causes quite the uproar amongst people at BYU who are: 1) Agaisnt piercings, 2) Against tattooing, and 3) Perpetually avoiding the fact that they are working too hard at school.
22- I have a goatee. I am not supposed to. "People with facial hair at BYU do not have testimonies, and are likely to leave the church over a pint of cream." But, That is a risk I am willing to take.
23- I can't wait to graduate from school, get a real job, have a family, and all of that stuff. I am really excited about the idea of being a dad, but willing to wait until the time is right... Meaning, after I am married. Legitimate dreams require legitimate children.
24- Plasma TV's are NOT worse than LCD TV's. Do not believe the myths you've heard. You do NOT have to: 1) recharge them, 2) worry about elevation, 3) expect to have it die a lot faster that an LCD screen. ALL HORRIBLE LIES!
25- I teach After Effects (motion graphics software) and video editing on BYU campus every Friday at 3:00.
26- I have freaking cute nieces and nephews.
27- I have red hair, but not blue eyes. My eyes are dark brown.
28- Well, that's all... SWEET.
