Hey guys, hows it going?

I decided to make a post from my new Samsung Galaxy Tab. Just a small post talking about it.

Mainly I wanted to post asking everyone who had an Android device what apps and things should I get for it? I have a hand full, but I'm not sure what else there is to get. :-) let me know in the comments below and I'll post more tomorrow or Tuesday.

Have a great day everyone.

So it's been a really long time since I've posted anything up here. So i thought i'd fill you on everything that has happened in the last 3 days. Yeah its been quite a bit so buckle in.

Day 1
So I woke up feeling great. Which is awesome. Cause that means that I finally found the right amount in my medicane to take. What am I taking and what for? Awe well that I don't care to disclose to the World. Thing is, its a personal problem I've been fighting for a while and only recently did I decide to take action and finnish it. So thanks to my doctor I was able to figure things out and start on a good path.

Well now that I'm feeling great lets go out and do things. I honestly have never had more energy or felt so optimistic about the world around me. Even if things are looking down I still feel in control which is nothing I've ever experienced before. And I love it.

I also took some time and reflected back on my life. and I came to the sad truth that all my life I never really fought for me. I fought for others and things that i didn't need. But I never looked for way to improve myself. i just let things wash over me and never cared what came of my actions, as long as I was happy then. Nothing else mattered. And while it's good to be happy in everything you do. You also need to consider if its making you a better person and who it maybe affecting.

Day 2
I decide that I need to take things in a different direction. I go to a counselor at SLCC to change my major and figure out what it will take to graduate from SLCC and move toward my ultimate goal of going into Optometry. I also stop off at work and Interview for a position i put in for Deli and Bakery. Hopefully I get one and get off the front-end so I can get more hours and ultimately start making more money for school.

And I started figuring out my plan for the next 2 weeks, 1 month, 6 months, and a year from this point.

I hope in the next 2 weeks, to have everything rolling, Car fixed, license renewed, car emission and inspected, and paying off bills.
In the next month I'd like to be doing better at work and slowly moving towards School, Unfortunately my roommate is moving to florida and I'll be moving back in with my parents. I say Unfortunately, because I like being on my own, and setting my own rules. But sometimes you don't always get what you want, rather what you need. I'll most likely be back with my parents with in the Month. So I'll be moved back in and using my time wisely.
In 6 months I'll hopefully be in Fall semester of School and doing well. I'll have most of my bills payed off and Working good hours at Costco.
In one year from now, I hope to be unstoppable. In better shape, managing my money better, doing good at work and in school.

Day 3 (today)
I woke up late after staying up late playing games. and while I'm not thrilled about having to take my Car to Meineke for a third time in a row. I've been Optimistic all day. And I feel awesome.

Well I hope everyone is doing well. And I hope to post on those dates to let you guys know how well its going. I feel a big change has come over me, and I'm ready for what ever the future holds. And if I'm side swiped by something, I know I'll be able to react fast enough to take care of the problem before it overwhelms me.

If there's anything else you guys are curious about. Just leave me a comment and I'll touch base on it by next week.

Life and Christmas

2010-12-13T12:10:00.000-08:00

Hey every one its been a long time since I've posted anything. And as I find myself with a bit of free time on my hands I thought I throw something up.

I've been doing good and a lot has changed.

I've moved out of my parents house and into my friend Kevin's house. It's back behind Jordan landing. It's a nice place and I have my own bathroom and stuff. Also in case I haven't said yet, I changed my number but hopefully I'll change it back soon if you want my new number just reply to this and I'll send it too you. Same goes for my new address.

Otherwise my life hasn't changed much. School has finished up, and I think i did good. I'm really thinking about continuing Optical school cause I loved that class.

Well I'm getting distracted here so I'm going to go. Hope you have a good one and I'll post again next year.

School, Work, and Wants.

2010-08-27T12:12:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone, I know its been a while so I thought I'd fill everyone in on whats going on.

So I recently started school this week I'm taking full time classes. Intro to Accounting, optical, digital design, and film. I'm testing the waters to see what I like best and what I want to go into. So far I've only gone to two of the classes as the other two are on tuesdays.

Works been the same, I'm still on the front end looking for full time. Luckily with the holiday season coming up I'll be getting more hours so I hope I can find full time before next year.

I've also been looking around and have found a lot of different things I'd like to get just for fun. I've been looking at Ipads, Bamboo tablets, games, books, car parts. Looking around has made me realize that I wish I had money for it all. Yet I know that if I did I wouldn't care about it as much. I don't know about you guys But I love having something I've worked for. Something I've had plenty of time to mull over in my head. Weighing the pros and cons and saving up for it. Cause I think that makes things so much better and more useful.

Any way thats a quick update. Let me know if you guys have any questions for me and I'll be sure to answer any and all.

Have fun
~Austin

Blippy and stuff.

2010-04-15T20:37:00.001-07:00

Hey everyone.

It's been while since I've posted but it doesn't mean I haven't been busy...okay yes it does.

Well I've just been working and messing with friends. I've been on some weird type of emotional roller-coaster the last few days. Happy, sad, laughing, depressed, and I have no idea whats causing it. Possibly the stress of money, or too much free time on my hands, or nothing at all. Whatever the case I'm happy now and want to share the latest.

First I want to say a Congrats to Jaycey who got a NEW CAR!!! Its a red Kio Rio...I don't know the year though so sorry. But I know she's uber excited and I'm happy for her.

NEXT IS BIG!!!! So you all know that Church down on the Corner of 6200 south and Redwood? of corse you do cause you had to pass it to get home when getting off I-215 well, ITS GONE!!!! yep they tore it down. I tried to get some pics with my phone though they didn't turn out too great.

Its crazy and will be missed....I think.

So lastly but not leastly. I've made another account, but this time on a site called Blippy. Basically what it is, is a site that posts your purchases where everyone can see them, rate/comment on them. I've joined so you guys can see what I'm getting from the three things I have connected right now which is Amazon, Itunes, and NetFlix. You do need to sign up to post but you can RSS my list if you'd like. The link is HERE. And if you'd like to join do so and follow me so we can comment on all the money we spend. (You can set up a Credit card or Bank account number if you wish. I'm personally skeptical about that right now.)

My biggest mistake.

2010-04-07T21:36:00.000-07:00

Earlier today many of you may have noticed a couple of posts about how I feel as though some people we're ruining my life...I regretfully say that I was the most mistaken on this then anything else in my life.

What I thought to be an attack on me. Was nothing more then a big miscommunication and my own selfishness. I know now what I've done and what I need to do to fix my life. My biggest regret is that I ever took my frustration to the internet. By doing so I let a simple situation get completely out of hand.

I want to apologize to everyone. Both those who I offend and yelled at. I truly do have a wonderful family. They are so kind to me and give me more then I deserve. And for these things I'm eternally grateful.

Hmm...what next...

2010-04-05T23:28:00.000-07:00

So its 12:31 I'm sitting in my room eating cake and debating what to do in my life.

Right now I'm 21. Not going to school. Working part time and filling my extra time with video games.

I feel like a slug. I recently took a challenge from a friend to go a few days without games and I'm happy to say that i did it. I also enjoyed it. Now I'm sitting here so confused on what to do. All my life I've played Video games to pass the time and enjoy the time I do it. But I'm not learning anything new, keeping in contact with anyone(sure it has online but I only play mornings or late nights), or getting anything accomplished. When I played games today i got frustrated, upset, and let it ruin my day. Thats not entertainment when you get upset. So whilst I pushed carts in the freezing cold at work I started thinking what I should do.

I considered selling both my home consoles and using the money on an Apple IPad. "Wait Austin," you might say "what's the point of getting that, it has games on it." Yes it does but I never said that i was swearing off games, just that i wasn't doing anything with my time. "Well how would the Apple IPad help with that?" thats a good question. The IPad though to most(me included) see the IPad as a giant IPod Touch it has more to offer then its smaller counterpart. The 3G model uses the At&t 3G wi-fi with out a contract. This means I get all the great apps while being able to use it on the go. Now it may seem a bit much I know I'd use it ALL the time. Thats why i got a smart phone in the first place was so i could have internet on the go. But with this i can browse the internet as i would on my MacBook but anywhere i wanted...as long as At&t was available.

The whole reason I've been considering it is cause I feel if i had it i wouldn't confine myself to my room all the time. I still live at home and don't spend all that much time with my family. Most people spend more time with there families in 2 years then i have since i was 10. and I want to change this. I want to be a better person and i think spending a little more time with my family and friends might help.

Well seeing as how its almost 1 in the morning and I'm having a hard time making sure this makes sense I'll stop here. I guess my main question to my followers is this. What do you guys think i should do? Should I sell my systems? Should I just wait and save up and get the IPad in a few months down the road? Just let me know what you think in the comments.

Whilst I'm bored...

2010-04-01T16:47:00.000-07:00

Well I'm not doing anything and I should update so connie doesn't get mad at me ;-)

Since I've last posted I went to Wyoming. Rawlins specifically. It was so much fun. I went with Kim to see Jaycey in the play HONK! It was a musical about the ugly duckling. It was very cute and had great music. While we where there we bowled and saw "How to train your Dragon" and I've got to say I loved it! Such a cool/cute show. I don't want to spoil anything so you should go and see it.

Also it was my birthday a few days ago I am now 21! Don't bother asking how it feels cause I'll tell you it doesn't feel any different then being 20. Mainly cause I don't drink so nothing changed there. But for gifts. I got a desk add-on to my Bookshelf from my mom, a new car battery from my dad, a trash bag for my car from Amy and John, as well as a new Beta fish from Stacey and Brandon.

My old Beta fish, Prince Bloke the 4th, received a bad infection when I was trying to clean his bowl. He wasn't very secure and tried to make a break for it. When I got him back into his bowl it was too late. I really miss that Fish. But now I have a new Beta named Sazh(pronounced like Jazz with a S) (and yes I know Scott its from a Game. but I like the name) I'll hopefully get a good picture soon and add it.

Other then that Life has been the same. Working at Costco with a car that runs great. (except for the battery) Hope I have more for you soon.

Now that i'm on a roll I can't stop posting.

2010-03-16T20:54:00.000-07:00

Well I took the color test. Found that my color is BLACK. Here's what it says

Nothing can stand between you and your demand for a calm environment. To be free of conflict and disagreement is the only way to live. In fact, it’s this philosophy that probably allows you to be comfortable in conditions that would normally bother others. Your ability to focus is undisputed, and while you enjoy attention, you still have problems understanding how to handle it. No other color out lives by the golden rule as much as you do.

I dunno, what do you think? Thought i'd post a pic to so here's Black Rock Shooter who likes...well black and blue.

Alright, I'm sorry.

2010-03-15T11:31:00.000-07:00

Yeah I know I haven't been posting Connie I'm sorry.

No I really am sorry for not keeping up to date on things. I've been playing games and keeping myself busy and on my down time, posting just hasn't sounded fun so I'm buckling down and posting everything that has happened.

To start off with I now have a car, it has been a while since I've had it but seeing as its the newest thing I'm posting about it. Its a 03 Pontiac Vibe. I got it for 5,000 and it's only got 120 miles with a Toyota engine that's not very much. Its running great and I'm so happy i have it.

My phone cracked a while ago and i had to send out for a new one I got it today and I'm planning on taking good care of it this time no more loose pockets that it can pop out of and skydive to the concrete.

Other then those two things life has stayed pretty much the same. Not much in my love life, still working part time and attending church whenever i can. I do however want to let you guys know about my new project.

Daily Booth is a website where you can post pictures and talk about them, I know there are a lot of those out there but on this site I plan to post at least on picture a day so as to keep a Photo journal of myself. If you like you follow my page click here you can also set up a page if you'd like, I find it really fun.

Well I have some things coming up this month that will give me lots to post about. So I'm planning on keeping this up to date along with my Daily Booth.

Oh also one more thing, Scott's been telling me to get a move on and i've just been layzing about. I've been thinking up stories in my head and wanted to post them I've made a new blog to where you can read them if you'd like just follow Link. And let me know what you think.

2010-01-19T09:51:00.000-08:00

Wow sorry i didn't post yesterday guys I had a really bad day, with all sorts of stuff but lets get to posting.

Well as far as church goes I'm trying to go every sunday and so far has been successful. Work is hard to get around but everyone there seems to be willing to work with my schedule which is nice. now only if i could get full time...

I recently ordered from ThinkGeek a few things as well as added a bunch of stuff to my wish list, so if you don't know what to get me for my birthday or are lazy :-P then check this site out, i got a staple free stapler and a utili-key they are both really cool and I'm enjoying my Titanium Spork that i got a long time ago everyday.

For those of you who don't know I'm subscribed to Netflix and the other day I watched "The Number 23" it was a really good movie, It was one of Jim Carry's more serious flicks, but he did a superb job. The show is about a guy who Gets a book called the Number 23 and how the character in the book finds everything to add up to the number 23 in his life SSN, License plate number, birthday everything. But as Jim Carry starts to get farther in the book he sees that everything he has adds to 23 as well its a phycological thriller that is worth a watch.

Other then that I'm still looking for a car with minimal success. So please keep your eyes open for me. :-)

Alright I want to apologize but lately I've been listening to the harry potter books on CD so I don't have any music to share with you today. See you wednesday.

It's MONDAY!

2010-01-11T11:00:00.000-08:00

Alright, its time to start blogging.

Since Monday is moments, let me catch you up on happenings.

Work - I'm still working at costco after 1 and a half years, still part time, but I'm looking for a full time position.

I got in an accident a while ago, I wasn't paying attention and drifted into a parked car. totaled mine but his is fine. So now I'm currently looking for a car. The search isn't going that well. :-(

My family is doing good, they've all been busy so i don't see much of them.

Well, other then that I'm not sure what you guys don't already know, So let me know in the comments what I should add.

A plan to keep me posting.

2009-12-22T22:22:00.000-08:00

Don't worry I'm not dead.

2009-04-13T11:07:00.000-07:00

Man, I'm not very good at keeping up to date with my blog am i?
I'm sorry i haven't posted a lot. Its been a weird year so lets get started.

Work:
I'm still working at Costco, and its been a YEAR! Its unreal how fast time flies. It feels like I just started. So now that I've been there so long I've gotten a pay raise and a week of paid vacation. Its great. I'm happy with it though I am looking for a change of pace in the building. So we'll see what happens.

School:
Collage has been kickin' my butt. I've always had a hard time focusing but with four separate classes I can't keep it all strait. With Finals coming up I'm starting to worry that I might have bombed this quarter.

Computer:
I got a MacBook. I'm really happy with my choice. I love it. It does everything I need and more. I can't wait till I can get down and dirty with it making videos, music, and blogging. (I'm hoping to make my own site to keep all of my information in one place so we'll see how it goes.)

Housing:
We've moved fianliy into a set house in South Jordan. At about 1000 west and 10000 South.
Its a really nice house and I hope to be able to upload pictures some time soon so you can all see it.

Family:
My dad is doing great and having fun with our new house.
My mom is currently staying at home her job was downsized and has been let go. But she has stayed optomistic and had fun working around the house.
My sisters and brothers all have so much on their plates, Amy and John maybe moving out of the country. Abbie(my neice) is growing up so fast and now has four teeth coming in and is soon going to celebrate her birthday.

In Closing:
I hope to keep everyone updated more about things and heppenings. But with finals coming up I will have a lot to get done so I'll let you know how School went right after.

Its been a while.

2008-12-26T11:31:00.000-08:00

So its past Christmas and things have happened and I've been away from the internet a while.

First off, before Christmas I changed systems, From the Xbox 360 to the Playstation 3. It was a hard choice but I've found that I'm going to have more fun with the PS3 then the 360, because as I've seen the PS3 in action I've been wanting to play it more then my Xbox. So now I have a PS3

Now on to christmas. I got a lot of good useful things, I got a new Shaver, I got a Sonic care toothbrush, and cloths. its not a lot but it was all prcatical! Which I needed all of it.

Work is going good, moiving is still at a stand still. And I live life in the moment.

And thats My update! :)

Growing up?

2008-11-08T10:15:00.000-08:00

As of recently a lot has happened. Most of it dealing with my personal life. But I need to ask the question. How do you really grow up? I understand that it comes with knowledge, learning from your actions and so forth. But how can you progress when your in limbo? I'm stuck between houses, I have to wait to go to school and I'm trying to apply for full time at my job that I might have to transfer from anyway. So the only thing I've been doing is sitting at home playing video games, I realize that it is an excessive amount but what is there to do when your broke and conserving gas. I don't understand how I'm suppose to grow when I'm in a community that I might not even stay in. It's confusing. I feel a drive but to do nothing. I feel like there is nothing to do. I'd pick up running but its starting to get into the colder season. I guess I just need your input. I feel like I'm losing everything, and I don't know how to hold on to my quickly changing life.

I've been trying to edit my Blog but I've been having a hard time. I'm hoping it works, if it does the page should be Black and red and the Playlist should be at the bottom. I hope it does. Let me know what you guys think.

See what you get. here are a couple of mine.

Austin needs a new Mexican restaurant: I guess I do, hu who would've thought.

Austin needs a Garriott Globe: Not really sure what it is, but I better get one.

Austin needs numbers cause he got a new phone: Well a new home phone maybe but not a new cell phone.

Austin Needs Volunteers! (2 Months ago): obviously the 2 months ago wasn't in the first line but it fits.

Well the year is starting to wined down, but a lot has happened this year. I've moved from the City of T to the Town of M, I got the cutest niece, I got a good job at Costco, I got broken in to. Yeah a lot has happened a lot that I never thought would happen and a lot that I was so excited for. Not to mention there's still 2 months to go in this year that a lot more could happen. As for my life everything is going good, I'm going through life keeping my eyes out for my next big chance.

A Long Long Time Ago....

2008-07-15T15:19:00.000-07:00

I posted. I know its been a while but things have been kinda busy in my life right now. I'll break it down into sections.

Work:
At Costco I'm and official Employee. Now I have the Executive Card which normally costs 100$ but I get it for free also I get the 2% cash back on everything I buy in the store. Which is nice cause they have a lot of stuff I want, and can get for everyone else.

Home:
Well if I haven't told you yet or you haven't heard, my family's moving. I don't know when, I don't know where, and to be honest I don't know why. But we're am moving. My parents say it could be any time in August or later. I'll try to keep you posted.

School:
I'm not taking any classes right now, but I might be in the fall.

Mission:
I'm still working on getting ready and I haven't started my papers yet due to medical reasons. But I still have ambitions of going.

Love:
Once again, if you don't know. I'm back with Sarah. So now you do. Things are going great between us, and she's really trying to get me out on a mission, which helps a lot.

Life:
My life all together is going good. I love my job, my family and everything in between.

So there's the update, I'll try to keep it more frequent then I have, and hopefully I'll have some pictures for you next time.

Adios

Costco Wholesale

2008-04-13T16:02:00.000-07:00

Well if you haven't heard the news yet or didn't catch it by the title.

I'm getting a job at Costco!

I'm really excited to get started on this job. Its going to be a lot of hard work, but it will be more then worth it. I'll be working at the Costco in West Vally, on 2700 w next to the Vally Fair mall. I'll start off making 11$ an hour at part-time. I'll mainly start off pushing carts but I hope to be cashier in no time.

The beginning orientation was hard. it lasted for about 6 hours and all we did was videos, fill out forms and took a crash coarse on the whole store and how it works. It was a lot of information crammed into one day. But it was so fun. I realized though that I only have a short time to prove who i can really be, but I'm determined to make the best of it.

A lot has happened....not really.

2008-03-19T21:56:00.000-07:00

Well basically as the title says, not much has changed.

I'm still working at Einsten's Bro. Bagels. It's getting a little better. Other then the fact that I work mornings now, I'm going to move up to a manager soon, so I'll get a little more money. So all in all things are starting to look up there.

As far as dating goes, that has been on the low. I've gone on a couple of dates, but nothing too huge. Just livin' the single life. Its alright but it is a hard change.

Other then that, I've been home and out with friends everynight. Not a whole lot has happened since I last posted. If anything comes to mind I'll post again, untill then. Adios.

The happenings.

2008-01-15T22:34:00.000-08:00

Well a lot has happened over the space of a few months that I haven't posted about so lets get crackin'.

1. I finished up my first semester in college and unfortunately it looks like I squeaked by with C's. Unfortunately I kept sleeping in and missing my classes, still need to find ways to force myself out of bed in the morning.

2. My sister, Amy, is PREGNANT!!!! It's so exciting to see her bigger and bigger every day. John(Brother-in-law) and Amy will make the best parents ever, and I'm really excited to be an uncle. They're having a girl which I think will be perfect for all of them.

3. I am single. Sarah and I after 2 years of dating are officially over, it's been really hard on me. Yet I'm doing my best not to think about it. I've been going on dates and things which have helped yet the biggest problem is that I started to slack off on my religious duties. Which is why it's been so hard on me. However I'm happy to say that I've been getting back on track. So in a few weeks I'll be back to my good ol' self.

4. I've moved to working full time, after getting C's (and the break-up) I felt like going back to school might not be the best thing right now. So I decided to work and save up money for a mission. Hopefully before I go I can learn to budget. That is my biggest problem.

Well that's whats been going on recently. My goal is to keep this going and keep you guys updated on my Dates, and things that I've been doing.

Later
~Austin
