Don’t think you’re on the right road just because it’s a well-beaten path. ~Author Unknown I came across this quote and I love it because of it’s simple truth. I think it is very easy for us as young adults to simply follow the path that people would like us to. I guess they call this conventional. As happy as I am sure this would make our families, (nothing new=no risk=no loss)...

Where the Hell is Matt? →
I am super excited about this guy Matt, first of all, he was just recently invited to the Ted Conferences to talk about his life and second of all he is famous for doing a little dancing jig.
He thought he had done all he wanted to do in life (play a lot of video games) and then it dawned on him that he wanted to travel, Stride gum found his dancing/traveling video and it is history from there....
This is all you need to know. →

My uncle Jamseyboy walked into my room with an open mouthed smile. The kind of smile where his eyes were sort of squinted and you can just barely see his tongue in the back of his mouth.
´Ive got french fries, im cookin them right now´
So i followed him back to the kitchen where he had a huge pan filled with hot oil and was dropping each peeled piece of potato into the hot grease. He explained...

It has been interesting trying to communicate. When i find myself saying speaking german rather than spanish is when i really know that i have absolutely no idea what the word for “tomorrow” is in spanish. Today at the schooo I had a really good time. Two 4th grade girls and I became best friends (Ingrid and Lucia) and they took me around and introduced me to all of their friends. I...

There was a blue house down the street with green shutters that always put up neon pink Christmas lights around the holidays. When I walked through their yard, I always wore my brown shoes because it was never green with grass, just usually red dirt and a few pale weeds.
In the late afternoons, when they opened their front door, a yellow beam of sunlight would pierce through the clear glass from...

This is an interview that happened with Kobe Bryant.
Who says celebrities aren’t like normal people?
Talk to me about a private failure that wasn’t in the headlines, the thing that just keeps you up at night. Something people can relate to. Not necessarily a public thing, but a thing you twist and turn over. Kobe Bryant: [Long pause] Dogshit? Like, I hate dogshit. I have a dog and I do...

Now, here is an idea that makes me want to make ones of these for this really cute homeless dog down the street that jake won’t let me have.
Newspaper insulated jackets for homeless people (and homeless pups) This is such a great idea that canada has started using. They use a waterproof shell and insulate it with newspaper, in the summer they can take the newspaper out and VOILAAAAAA a...

Well, I had to get one of these because i did not like that old thing I was using.
Today we had one of those Red Bull “team building” activities. It is to activate this really cool event we have coming up called Red Bull Landrush, i’ll put the link up later but it is basically “The Amazing Race” but only in Oklahoma and college kids can enter.
I know I am...
