WOW

Ok, so its been forever since I have posted on this thing. Oh well.

In Alaska

Hey you all,
I am in Alaska, and if you want to know what I am doing, read my sister's blog. :>
But here are some of the trips details.
1. My sleeping arrangments have not been the best, I have been sleeping sprawled out on the very back seat of the Excursion. But I have been sleeping pretty good during the day as some of the less flattering pictures on Heidi's blog suggest. Geez.
2. No cell phone coverage for about 5 days almost killed me. Almost. But as I got weaned from the life-giving bars, it got easier.
3. Our Excursion got soo dirty. Dry dust on a wet car is not good. But we made good use of the dirt, and wrote encouraging slogans and sayings such as "No cell coverage in days, we shall surely die" and "Dawson City went bust."

Anywho, I am off to get ready for the wedding.

Have fun y'all in Bend, or wherever you are. I am getting homesick. Sigh.

It's Been Awhile...

So this last week has been pretty nicely filled with activities for my action-loving brain. I have a cello preformance that I am playing on like the 3rd of June so Ihave been practicing a ton. I happen to have two lessons a week so thats been a lot of my time, good stuff.
Also I have been moving water as usual, and rehearsing with the motley crew the play "The Merchant of Venice." That goes down on the 2nd, and we are leaving for Walla Walla Conv on the 4th, so life will be pretty complicated and filled with oh-so-fun things.

My week was...

Irrigation, more irrigation, and some school, with a cello. :)

And then it deceided that it was goingto be cold.

I Am A Farmer Now

The week has gone by soo fast, its insane. As most of you know, my Dad and I went partners in a haying business so we have been getting our fields ready for irrigation. I have been working after school, sometimes even skipping some school every day this week, and worked all day saturday. I rather enjoy the work, most of it is on the tractor, plowing and stuff.

I also dropped my phone in the middle of a 40 acre field. Arg... I have my whole schedule and lots of notes on it, not to mention phone numbers and contact info, I am going to look for it this afternoon between meetings.

Sigh

Anyways so thats whats going on Frank's world.

Cabin Trip Baby!

SO last weekend I went to the Cabin Trip at Mount Hood that some of my freinds hosted. It was great, lots of Basketball, from which I got some crazy blisters, and wrestling, round the world ping pong, and lots of talking with ppl. I am getting tons of Facebook notifications because of tagged pics from it. Good times.

On to more important things. For me anyway. Ever since returning from the cruise, I have been feeling rather unproductive, and those who know me well know that I hate being unproductive. I guess its part of my personality to always be doing something to better myself in life. Anywho, my remedy for my dower mood is this. I set for myself a few goals for the month of April since I am a goally person.
1. To earn $500 and get out of most of my debt.
2.Landscape our driveway and entry.
3. Learn 35 hymns perfectly on the piano.
4. Get half of my Physics book done.
5. Finish a school book titled "Essay on Man"
6. Finish my chemistry.
7. And finally stay on track on math to finish by early May.



So those are my goals. I have been doing pretty good on them so far. And it has been helping with my sadistic feelings of unproductivity. My depression is easily remedied.
