Poetry Slam Dunk

If you've never been to a poetry slam, (much like myself) you can find one near by each Sunday evening.

Today I wore my Barcelona Jersey. I wear it on days that I think will be good days.

After seeing two movies in the theater today, I will consider today to be a good day.

I love the team Barcelona but even more, I love what the jersey represents. A true friend.

New Nerf Guns

"Sleepy Ridge Golf Course", they do big events. "Magleby's Grill and Oyster Bar", they cater.

I work for "Magleby's", therefore I worked my shift tonight at the golf course club house. It was fun, it's nice being away from the regular routine of serving tables. But my feet hurt.

Big show in a week from tomorrow, prepare your souls.

Mind the Wind

Haven't been able to write myself a spot into your hearts for a while. Here I am. Living in a little white house, with my green car, black sweater, plaid backpack and blue sky hangs overhead.

I'm having fun with my band, and a select handful of roommates, plus the loaf of bread mother gave me. I like my room, it's clean. My band has a show a week from Tomorrow. I hope to see all you who love there! I watched a movie called "Shrink". it was good
Love, Ryan

Finding Adventure Again

One might eagerly argue that finding adventure could be an easy thing to do. One could tell you that adventure is not to be found in the "Happy Valley". One might also argue that life's captivating moments are dusted everywhere on this valley's benches. I say, there is adventure wherever you make it!

Take church for example:
When Jacob and I are subject to material that we don't find interesting, we find adventure staring into down into my camera phone. Poised with such deep intention these two youngsters have found adventure even in the Lord's house.

There exists in this world a sport known as skiing :

While all the kids our age are starting their new semesters at BYU, Cousin and I take the day to our advantage of free slopes and brand new snow at Sundance! Believe me this little park found its adventure!

*Kevin did eat crap on this one folks.... :)

Bre Sifuentes' home is jam packed with "sweet brohs" on Sunday nights:

Sunday night's can only be summed up at adventurous when you add in some sweet brohs, some cheezy carmely popcorn snacks, and board games. Totally adventurous!









You see here in Provo, Utah we can find adventure! It really lies around, but as we cannot see it sometimes, we must create it!

Love Love Live!

The 'Porques' of MY life!

Well folks apologies multiple apologies shall I be making at this moment to the select few of y'all who are interested in what this certain 22-year-old might have to say. I see it fitting to let you all know that contrary to popular opinion I am not passed onto another realm of post-mortal existence (well at least to my knowledge). I'm still alive, and kicking and screaming to boot. Life has been pretty nuts as of late folks. Pretty Nuts indeed. You see I've found a new habit, one that I find quite intriguing. Every single night I lie down for bed, I turn on my Lap-top and watch TV-Series' of all different kinds. One night I finished all of season 2 of Gossip Girl and went straight to work afterward. Ha I know disgusting, very disgusting.

Well in the last few months, I have (note; this list does not necessarily include everything) played, jammed, slammed, worked, cried, laughed, found love again, lost love again, slacked, joked, spoke foreign tongues, drawn, punched, finished 1st, chew chewed, kissed, cuddled, stunk, rocked, smiled, planned, opened, closed, been yelled at by Richard, sassed by Jon, loved by many, sassed by Doc, sassed by Coby, Joon, James, Jamie, and Nate, ate churrasco, ate a Monte Cristo, seen defeat, risen above, fallen flat, woken up at 530, danced till the new year came, landed a 180 and wrote about it all on Blogspot.

For now I might have to say that is a list of some exciting things that have happend to this soldier. One thing you must know is that I love you all deeply. Your support and love has always made me into the being I am today! I make you all a promise (one I probably wont keep) to blog more with updates of fantastic fun filled adventures!

Love

Ryan

Hallow's ween!

ha ha halloween!

I love this holiday cause it's an excuse for kids to actually get and eat candy! At no cost! Also we get to think of the best childhood memories we have ever had like 'David Garrard dressed as a penguin, falling into a ditch on Canyon Road!' Or 'Luke Ashworth screaming his little 8th grade lungs out at the scary pumpkin up on Osmand Lane'. Whatever your story is, I KNOW you have at least one!

Also we get to dress up and pretend that we are something/someone else for 5-9 hrs of our lives!

But this halloween was different! I spent my time dressed up yes! I had plenty of free candy YES! I turned 22 YES! but the best part was, I got to do what I absolutely love on the day I love most! Play music! Our band http://www.myspace.com/hellohelicoptermusic got to play at Magleby's Grill and Oyester Bar! The place of my employment! And we played with Neon Trees! It was fantastic! Here are some photos!

I was a scout and we played our hearts out!

Love love!

The "Porque's" of Life

Well folks I'm back from my leave of absence. Where was I? Not anywhere new I suppose, well physically I wasn't anywhere else at least. These past few weeks have been really really tough on a guy like me. But my moto in life is to just keep smiling? I guess the next question is "Porque you haven't been blogging Mr. Ryan" and I say "Porque, I'm a lazy, busy son-of-a-gun."

Porque!?! we have things in our lives that stop us right in our tracks? That hit us so hard we fumble near the goal line? Porque we can just be left alone in our happy states of being, to fend with honor and dignity? Well, as soon as we get on top (and I'm not joking it's THE very moment we are teetering on the tippy tippy top) we suffer a pivotal shift in our speed and hit the downward spiral!

Sometimes we aren't the ones who get to answer our own "Porque's" we as beings usually have the priviledge of creating them. Answers schmansers! All we need to know is that there are few, at least a very few in our lives, who love us dearly! Things happen the way they happen! We just have to do as Mr. Ryan says and just keep on smiling! That's Porque!!!!

Love

Ryan
