It was 105 degrees today, and I was stuck in pants!

No one writes in this thing anymore, and I haven't used AIM in about 2 years so...

I think that I'm going to stop writing in this all together. maybe this weekend, I'll read through all my entries with Holly for fun, just to see how I've changed.

Good bye to any of my readers.

We had a house party last night. It was so much fun. i liked that it was scaled down and that I knew most of the people over. I especially liked that Holly hung out as long as she did. I'm def. going swimming today.

Hello

I'm back from DC. We had a fun and easy drive up and probably had too much fast food. The zoo in DC was really neat, especially Tia Shawn the baby panda bear. We also spent forever at Tyson's Corner and didn't even get anything.
On the way home last night, we stopped at Busch Gardens to see the fireworks and ride on the Griffon. So worth it.
It was good to be home and to sleep in a bed last night. I'm back at work now though, so I should probably get working.
And that's that.

Peace

TGI Thursday
Today feels like friday, because I got off work tomorrow to take holly to her Dr. appt. in Richmond. We decided to make a whole road trip out of it with my brother john, and his fiance. After the appointment we are going to head for DC and stay with my Grandparents. After we entertain the old folks, we are both going to the city to explore. Holly and I are specifically going to the Zoo to see the giant pandas.
*side note* did you know that Norfolk Zoo has a red panda, it kind of looks like a fox and a bear combined. Well it escaped, but they got it back. Norfolk Zoo sucks.

After the zoo, we plan on looking for a dress Holly can wear to John's wedding. I still need to get measured for a tux. Plus i also wonder who his best man will be.
On the way home we are going to stop at Tysons Corner to look at things.

Bye I have to get back to work.

Yesterday, I moved the majority of my things into the Longwood house. That was also my first night sleeping there. It was a very strange night sleeping there, and knowing that it was where I would be sleeping for a long time. I should finish moving in today, when I bring a few more clothes and the boys Dunkin and Occy over. I think my room is really neat. The biggest problem is that they only have two pronged outlets! which means I'm f***ed if the house gets struck.

colonnathekid @ 2007-06-22T09:56:00

2007-06-22T14:06:33Z

Well I did it. I plotted and planned for the past week to convince my parents into letting move into the Longwood house. I provided them with an information packet, including a FAQ sheet. The presentation went pretty well, and I gave them some time alone to decide. After about ten minutes we went outside to talk. Long story short, I am allowed to move in! Here are the terms of the agreement thought: I pay for everything this summer. During the semester they will give me $300 a month to help pay rent, I pay the rest which is sweet. All I have to do is stay above a 3.0 GPA and can't get more than one C. I feel like this is gonna be no sweat. The other catch is that I have to pay for my own gas now! This might not be too bad because my work reimburses me for my milage.

After work tonight, Holly and I are driving to Busch Gardens to ride the Griffon again. It should be a great date.

Saturday we are going to Sandbridge to hang at the beach with Chelsea and Justin. Hopefully there will be a few waves.

Sunday, the guys plan on going to North Carolina to surf, but I don't know if the waves will even happy.

Love you bye

WEEEEEE

2007-06-18T14:10:57Z

Yesterday, Holly and I went to Busch Gardens. We screwed around with the older rides and had a good time, but eventually we got down to business and got in line for the Griffon. They have this lame rule there now, where you can't have a purse in lines, so you have to pay a dollar to put your purse in a locker. Luckily I am a boy with a wallet, but that rule was still lame, because Holly had to pay $2 just to wait in line yesterday. anyway, we waited not too long and got to ride in the front of the griffon! It was so scarry when it just stopped and hung you over the edge, and the drop made me smile so hard that my cheeks started to hurt and if felt like my brain was going to come out of my ears, after that blur, it was over. So we decided to ride it again after dinner of course. The second time the ride made more sense and was really fun. The best part was the pictures it takes; our faces were so weak, especially holly's. I always get my hair blown back and it just shows my huge white forehead.

Just a few more days and I get payed, then I can move into the Longwood house. I think I'll go over there after work and start to arrange my room. That is if I don't go surfing. The waves have been very nice to us recently.

peace

Well the real-estate businasty has been good to me. I have a pretty chill job, where I get to poke around on Facebook, and play solitare between appointments. I am also making good money, which means that I can move into the Longwood house imminently. Great news even, Doug decided to move to the third floor, so now I can live on the same floor as all my friends. I will kind of feel like an ay hole being the only one in the house, not sharing a room. Maybe Austin can move in with me when he gets home.

I tell you what, working full time does stink a little, because now I can only go to the beach on Saturdays and Sundays only, and the waves seem to like Thursdays the most. So I've been missing out on surfing.

For my lunch breaks I go home, make a sandwich, and watch "How it's Made". This is a very nice way to spend a lunch break btw. That is unless Holly drives up to eat with me.

Ok well I'll see if I can do some real work now, I probably just made $2 in the time it took me to write this, so eat dust.

Peace

I'm back from Peru, there is too much crazy stuff to write about on here. I've been home for abot 4 days, and I still haven't posted the pictures of the trip yet. My arms are really ichy from the bug bites in Bella Vista.
I plan on moving into the Longwood house in a matter of days or weeks. Should be exciting!

Does anyone use LJ anymore?

2007-04-20T05:53:41Z

Well I'm not too sure why I am still posting on this. I have had it for a long time though. Here's some news on me anyway.
The semester is almost over, which makes me almost a Junior in college!
I got a fantastic new job showing rental apartments for Cooke & Neff Real Estate. I get my own office with a nice desk and fancy telephone, business cards, a $100 organizer, possibly a work cell phone, and the pay me back for gas. I plan on working a lot this summer.
I just purchased my plane ticket for Peru today. I leave on May 24th. It should be a real adventure.
I have also finished some songs, which I am very happy and comfortable with. So as soon as I can afford a recording microphone, I will record a good CD, and start to play some shows hopefully!
Everyone in my family is doing well, Especially John, who's wedding is only a few months away now. I only with that I could spend more time with Katherin to get to know her better. I mean she is going to be my sister soon.

Here's something I was thinking about last night:
First there were the California deadly earth quacks, then the Oaklahoma City bombing, then there was the columbine shooting, then 9-11, then the sniper killing people in Maryland and Virginia, then the tsunami and katrina, and now this kid @ Tech. These are just some of the huge events which happened in my lifetime. Did you forget about any of those? The news has a field day with such events, because it gets viewers and boosts ratings. Interviews with family members of victims, who would probably just like to be left alone to morn, and viewers not seeming to be surprised anymore. We are not so naive to threats in America anymore, but people are getting callused to them. What is coming next and is the media just itching for its chance to cover it?

Hello LJ world. I have a lot of news, but I'll keep it short.
I have been spending too much money lately, come to mention that I finally quit Coldstone. I got Debbie a nice surfboard for her birthday and myself a nice snowboard for next season.
More good news: I had a really good interview today and am going to be a rental assistant for Cooke & Neff real estate business. So basically I would just be showing people appartments. The scarry part is that it is like a real life job, where I will have to be organized and have a notebook, planner, milage log, and note pad. I can't believe that I am going to be a real person. I just have to see how much it pays now.
Holly and I went for a run today, and it was the first time I had run in ages, and my whole being hurts.

Things to look forward to:
Surfing with Mouse and Ben, who is back in town.
Mouse's 20th birthday March 28th
Pike Fomal April 7th
Debbie's 10th birthday April 9th
David's 17th birthday April 27th <----- Holy CRAP!
Making Cash Money at my new job
The weather getting even nicer

I hate my job. $9/hour is not worht being shat on. I finished my resume and am going to apply to Red Bull in a few days. Oh how I look foreward to puting in my 2 weeks notice.

Sunday is going to be busy. I have church, Pike Roadside cleanup, study for accounting test, Pike Meeting, and another Pike event late that night. Definightly not going to the party afterward, but definightly getting a Red Bull and studying some more.

I have to get out of this office, or I'm gonna flip. Holly came in and visited, so that kept me somewhat sane.

This second semester Sophmore year has not been so hard.
Tonight Pike's intramural basketball team did not win in the championship game. I only got 2 points. Mouse's team got to the B league championship and lost as well.
It's nice to know that not everyone out there is a piece of S**T. I got a facebook message from someone who works at the TED saying that they had my wallet there. NICE! and I was just there earier this evening. I've already canceled most of the stuff in it, but it will be nice to have a liscense again. I also wonder what's still in it.

In other news it's settled. Holly, Chelsae, Justin and I are going snowboarding in Snowshoe this spring break so that's going to be fun, and I've commited to going on a missions trip to Peru this summer.
It's a lot to look foreward to.
and I still love Holly by the way

So Christmas break is over and I miss it already. It seems like I'll be doing a lot more work this semester, so I don't know what this will be like. The good news is that I'm finally done pledging Pi Kappa Alpha, so I'll have more time to study real school work. I'm so happy that initiation is on Saturday and can't wait to get my letters. It was so much hard work, but in the end it was really worth it; I just love the way that Pike does stuff. Of course it's all a secret, but I was gone for a while and now I'm back again. My pledge brothers and I are so ridiculously close, and It will be nice to get to know the older brothers better now. The bad news about this semester is that Holly has a sweet job now. So between the two of us working and going to class, we will only be able to see eachother 2 or 3 times a week. That made me pretty bumed out today. But I definightly will be keeping real busy. Friday will be our date night, so I will always have that to look foreward to. I love holly. I hope everyone else gets back into the swing of things alright too. peace.

Last night after work, I came home and played around with iTunes, which I still love, and I used my iTunes gift card to buy music, and got a lot of songs. I don't know why but it was really fun, and I ended staying up until 2:45am. I don't know why. Church was really sweet and later I will go to Holly's house for some of her holliday baking... I can't wait. I'm so excited about tomorrow.
It's hard for me to remember that Jesus is the reason for the celebrating though, because that was the best gift I've ever gotten.

I've been having a really enjoyable break, I hope everyone else is as well. I've been working a little, playing a lot of basketball and playing with Holly. It's nice being done with all my christmas shopping too.
A big disappointment for me was that I had put a lizard on hold at the store for a new pet. When I went in to visit the little guy (who I decided to name Occy) I asked to see him and they said that they sold him that day. "WHAT!?", I exclaimed, "You said that you would hold it for a week.
"Well you didn't seem that sure about it", the fat bitch replied.
"That's BULL," I said in discust.
So I'm not going there ever again, because the lady continued to be rude and ignorant.
So she can eat dust.
Maybe I can get a different Occy later on it this break.

I would like to hang out with my friends soon

Merry Christmas to everyone
and Happy Hanuka, Ben

Yes it's true I am no longer a teenager and it is wonderful. These past couple days have been a blast. Friday I aced my Marketing exam, and got an A on the last Microecon test. After all the school crap, I cleaned out my car, packed my bags, and picked up mouse and Holly for our JMU trip. The drive was ridiculously long, but we made it alright. I got to see Melissa's house, ben, carter, joanna, and others were there as well. We had a lot of fun and all slept in the same room (I brought an infladable matress with a sleeping bag, because I did not want to have a sore back for my birthday).

Saturday, we just drove back and made good time. Holly gave me her presents which were nice PJ pants, comfortable slipper/moccasin type shoes, and a really sweet card that she made herself. After unwinding from the long car ride, we parted ways. I was greeted by everyone in my house and Had a small mountain of presents waiting for me. I got a really nice printer, $15 i-tunes girft card, the rest of the money to pay for my gym membership, plenty of cash from the grandparents, and brownies.
After playing with all my new things, Holly picked me up to take me to dinner. We had No Frill Grill and ate way to much and talked for hours. It's so nice to be that comfortable with her. After dinner, we saw that movie "The last Holliday" I guess I'd have to give it 2 out of 5 stars. The movie was followed by expensive deserts, which we probably would have been better off, not eating. And holly sang happy birthday to me. It was such a fun date, and I thanked her a lot for it.

I went home, set my alarm for church, and watched a little dave chapelle stand up before going to sleep. It was a good day.

I got a lot of birthday kisses, and most were from Ben and Mouse. It was nice seeing everyone again.

This past week held a lot of events for me: some were getting some good grades back, schedualing for classes, longboard downhill slolem, dates, Interviews with brothers. You know lots of stuff. Pledging is finally approaching the end. I'm ready for Christmas break. I have most of my shopping done for my family already. Here's something else: I turn 20 in 8 days. How crazy is that. I'm gonna try and have a cookout with my pledge brothers. I have that buzz that I get in December, today probably because I watched an ODU basketball game, then came home to find a new Christmas tree in my living room. This should be a good month. I hope all of my friends are doing well. peace

This has been my favorite Thanksgiving yet. My brother's wife to be and her mom came to cook for us, and my gparents came as well. The only bad part was that my dad got called in to do surgery right before we ate. That really stinks for him. buy I mean, it meant that someone had a special thanksgiving because they got a surgery to save their life.
Food was delicious, my brothers and I lifted wieghts and threw a football for a bit. After my house I headed over to Holly's to kick it with her family. we had some pie, sat in the hot tub, and watched ELF. I got so full but it was a good full. When I got home I talked to my family for a bit, and john, who was about to camp out in front of Best Buy for the Black Friday sale.

Today, my schedual is completely free, so I'm surfing with Josh, Mouse, and Ben... you know, my crew.

It took me 2 hours but I finished the accounting test, now everything will be easy again.
Too bad I have to work at 4:30 till close tomorrow.

This will truly be a grand thanks giving, especially because I'll be in town this time

had a date with Holly last night. We went to San Antonio Sams and I had a 10 oz steak, yum. it was fun to talk and laugh.
After dinner we hung out at the cool mac aurther mall like really cook kids that always hang out there.
I got a t-shirt and then we saw that Will Farell movie called Stranger than Fiction. It was really good and funny, and THANK GOD something entirely orrigional. (I'm so sick of every movie being about a different super hero that isn't spiderman, or movies off of books or remakes of old movies, come on people, make something new) This movie was new and very good, go see it. on that note, do not see the movie Borat, unless you want to see a lots of penis and balls.

Other than that, I'm doing well. I look foreward to seeing some of my older friends again. bye

This was an unexpected Vacation

2006-11-05T23:30:31Z

This week was the complete opposite of super bussy last week. Tuesday I dressed up like an I-Pod and took Balerina Holly to a party at the Pike house on 48th. It was sort of fun, except I ended up having to work the door, and Daniel McNabb was there and knew everyone... wierd.
Let me see...
Thursday was Big Brother Night so I was studying for that all week ridiculously! I'm not really allowed to say or write anything about it because It is top secret, but I will definightly remember it for the rest of my life. I can share the results though: I got the big brother I wanted, a senior Jason Ullman, and I am in the Captain family, which is the best one to bee in. there are like 4 or 5 families. and each is named after a liquor. Captian (Captian Morgan), Henessy (Henessy duh), SOCO (Southern Comfort), and a few more. So I got a really nice bottle of Captian morgan's private stock, to take a shot with my big brother. He couldn't come to the party afterward and I was leaving for Atlanta at 5am the next morning, so I'll save it for when we can both do it.
I went home still feeling extatic, got my things, and went to Holly's house to sleep.
It took forever to get to GA, I did A LOT of the driving and we took 2 cars so it wouldn't be so cramped.
We got there after 8 hours and went to the rehersal dinner. good food, cool families. After the dinner, I called up my friend from second grade, Johnathan Gilliam, who drove back to his house in GA to see me. He ended up living 20 minutes from the hotel so we drove up there and Holly stayed. I had an awsome time seeing his parents again and just remenissing about all the dumb things we did back in the day. it definightly made me feel good and old. He drove us back to the hotel after having an excelent time.
The wedding was at 12 the next day. It was so short and quick, that I wasn't sure it was really over.
I caught the leg thing and... how perfect is this, Holly caught the bouquet. so we pretty much have to get married now. NICE.
we had dinner and played with the doggs.
We left the hotel at 5 am ang got home a few hours ago.
I picked up my paycheck and just screwed around the house for a while.

What does next week have in store for Billy? Stay tuned and you'll find out.

PS please forgive the spelling, holly is waiting outside in her car for me so I don't have time to finish this properly.

I have a full plate

2006-10-19T04:43:37Z

Tuesday night I played at the Boars nest for open mike night. Turns out 2 of my frothers were playing there too. They both gave me nice compliments on my music too. BIG THANKS to Holly, Mouse, Chelsea, and Greg Sceviour for comming to support me, it made me feel a lot for comfortable. Hopefully I'll get to play again next Tuesday, I'll just have to decide which songs to play. I've decided that I will only play 2 at a time, just because it makes me less likely to mess up and I also won't feel like I'm taking too long. yeah I can be ver selfconcious.

This week I have 2 tests on Thursday and I had to work tonight, and I'm seeing Mute Math tomorrow with Holly's family. I'm gonna wake up really early tomorrow to do a lot of studying. That's pretty much all I'll be doing tomorrow when I'm not at class. I also have a BIG test in Stat on Monday, which I am already behind in because I didn't know about the first test and got a D+ w/o any studying. So If I don't do well I'm screwed in that class. With all the school work, I also have to balance work and Pike stuff. our pledge class pres. bet the brothers that we could all memorize our preamble by 1am tomorrow. If so they will buy us a Keg for Friday night, if not, we have to buy them a "handle of SOCO" I like that Holly knew what that meant and I didn't. The preamble isn't the hard part it's the guys who wrote it. They average about 4 names a person. Stupid parents just need to pick one middle name and stick with it.

Time for sleep, Hope everyone's doing well.

Yesterday and Today were straight up crazy. I'll start with yesterday.
Sunday: Holly and I left my house at 5:30am toward Florida. After hours and hours of driving with many restroom stops, we arrived in Stuart, FL at 7:45pm. we dropped off the car at Holly's aunts house, said hello, had some cereal, then headed to Palm Beach. Turns out there are more than one Okeechobee roads, so it took us 45 minutes to get to Josh's college. This place was effing beautiful, with such awsome expensive stuff. We found Josh running through an empty street and greeted eachother. His dorm was ridiculously sweet. Full of Musical Instruments, Surfboards, and Sector 9 boards (which are some of my top favorite things). Then we met his nice girlfriend who lives on the floor above him. they are very happy together. Josh took us on a little tour of West Palm beach. It was a fun nice night. We talked about all sorts of stuff and saw Donald Trump's ridiculous house, the ocean, and all the closed shops. He took us to get tasty Late's, and to skate on an underpass. it was really scary and fun at the same time. After this we headed home. (oh ya don't forget we saw a craked out lady with only one shoe asking everyone if she could use a cell phone) We went back to the dorm and said goodbye. The drive back to Holly's aunts didn't take too long this time. We went right to bed.
Saturday: Holly woke me up saying that we had to leave in half an hour, so I packed my stuff and ate some serial. I slept most of the car ride to the Orlando airport. We spent a little less than 2 hours there, and i bought chick-fil-et, and a new hat, and a cinimon apple drink for Holly. (things I want to remeber at the airport are: The realistic sleeping man, made out of wax, the phone made out of chocolate, and the chick-fil-et lady's name was Joxmarie...sweet) The flight back took an hour and a half, which sucks because it took us 14 hours to drive down there. My mom picked us up and took us to my house. Pele's eyes were still not looking too good, so I brought her to the pet store to get looked at. Long story short, they are desert lizards not tropical lizards, so I had to switch the bark on the ground with sand, because it was getting in her eyes. that whole ordeal took about 2 hours i think. After that Holly and I went to here house to work out. Kitty was afraid of Pele! We just played tennins for about 15 minutes before we realized that we still aren't very good, or at least I stink, so we did sprints, which showed us how out of shape I was. It was the best workout I've had in well... a few days actually. We had protein shakes and toast for dinner, then I went home. I went into work just to count money and lock the door, easy money.

Today is Holly's and my 2 and a half year anniversary. We are both excited and are going to spend the day together in Richmond at Mamont park. Should be pretty interesting to see what happens there. i can't wait at least. I still Love Holly very much by the way.

Goodbye, I can't believe your read that entire thing... loser.
