Email to Blog Post

Hey just seeing if I can just email this and post a blog. Cause that would be good so that everyone can visit my blog and I don't have to write everyone evertime. So this is just testing out to see if that works. So if you're reading this, that means you'll be in for a real treat in a few months. Cause you know what, most likely there'll be a new post.

MIssion is calling

Well I did my last talk in my home ward for the next two years. Which was formally known as a farewell talk. It was nice getting that over. I have no idea how long it was. Everyone was telling me how impressed they were with me. That I've broken out of my shell. That they never could do a talk without at least some notes. I was also told that my talk was better than most return missionaries. So that was pretty cool.

Still have a few things to get before I leave, but I got just about everything. It's really nice to have Joe home. I'm so happy that he's here. It doesn't seem like he's been gone that long, and yet it does. I mean sooner than I know it I'll be back. There's just so many things that just cruise by and seem like no time at all.

Pure Pwnage

A new month a new start. Well lately I've been finding myself saying words like noob and such a lot more. Ever since I've been watching Pure Pwnage. It's a really funny internet show about the gamer world. That's the best description I can give. There aren't really any words in the english language to desrcibe it. I would suggest everyone to watch, because it's really funny. It makes fun of gamers and stuff. Cause the main guy talks about everything as if it's a game. Like he uses words like imbal, and rush. So it's quite the laugh. If you're sensitive with things like cussing, humping actions, and spankings (all of which down to the air or a monitor) then you might not want to watch it. Or when people talk like gamers then you don't want to watch it. I would tell you about episodes but that would ruin it. I just say, go to purepwnage.com and dl(download) the episodes and enjoy. One of my favorites is #2 it's about gamers and girls. Don't worry about some of the terms they use, they refer to things in Command and Conquer: Generals Zero Hour. So you either play the game and understand or go what?

So be an uber-noob and not watch it, or you can be a pro and watch it. ROFL

Do you hear me? Do you care?

Sudoku the new wave hitting the nation. Well this week my family has finally given in. My mom did it the whole way home from LA. I guess that tells you how much she like it. My dad loves it too. Drew i think he just did it to pass time. I enjoy for maybe half way through one, then just do it to pass time. But now I'm home I don't think I'll be doing it anymore.

Yes Magic Mountain was a lot of fun. But I didn't get to go on as many rides as I wanted to. One was closed, and my group was all too tired to stay longer. But I got a shirt from it, so I'm happpy ^_^ I'm wishing I took more pictures, but I'm happy with the ones I took.
Yes I know, very orginial
Ignore the other people in this pic, just look at the dashing young man in blue, and that other kid in orange. And if you're wondering what's on my shirt, it's a simple math equation. Mario+shroom=Bigger Mario. I've been told that it's cool.


I figured we've done a foot pic before, so this was opproiate. Once my mom's wallpaper on her cellphone was my foot, now it's my eye, so I can keep an eye on her.

Yeah so I rode Ninja, Batman, Goliath, Jetstream, Scream!, was going to do X but it was closed. But overall it was lots of fun.

Of course when I went to the temple, I forgot to bring my camera. And all the other places I went, so at least I got a few pictures. Well I got to see the neww Joseph Smith movie, it was really good. I got to Knott's Berry Farm. We went at 8:00pm on a Saturday, it wasn't the best idea. It was as if it was during the day. So we got on 3 rides, but only the best ones. So it's all good.

Well it's just good to be home now. Even though it's harder to sleep in this thinner air. The wonderful weather gone. The beach thousands of miles away, instead of ten minutes. And all those other good things about Southern Cal that we all love and enjoy.

See you next time on Jake's World......well it's not really my world, unless you accept my reality as your own, then it would be, and I would be in far better condition than I am now, and you would talk to me more, and you wouldn't be reading this, you would be calling me, or at least leaving a comment so I know I'm being heard, cause people like it when you do that, cause this is a very run-on sentence, unless you think my puncuation is correct, then you're way off, just practicing writing in BoM style, you know with no puncuation at all, except the period at the very end, and how they puncuated as they published it, not puncuation on the manuscript, so I think that would be a little hard to do, well this is really good bye now, I'm not just saying it this time, you know i wasn't quite accurate with that BoM thing back there a few commas ago, I just feel like I lied to you, well I've warned you about it now I don't feel so bad, well good night, morning, or afternoon, whatever the case may be, and see you next time.

Buca di beepo

Well after a long trip to Cali, we relaxed then went to dinner at Buca di beepo. My Grandparents, my fam, my aunt Linda, and my cousin Madison.

Here's my cute little grandma.


My bro and dad.

My mom and dad.
Some left over from the tons of food we got. Let's see we got 5 appitzers. I don't mean the little one, they're like a meal by themselves. Then we got 5 entrees, I mean it was a ton of food.
These are only the left overs.

Here's my cous, she's autistic. My aunt Linda works at Merill Lynch, she's really smart.

And my cute grandparents.

Well that's only the first day of my wonderful trip, well see you tomorrow.

Stormy Weather

Imagine a nice sunny day. The sky is a grogeous blue. The sun beaming down and your tanning skin. A nice breeze blows by. Can it get any better? You bet, that's way too boring. You need a nice lightning storm. Some hail would be nice too. Even some big gusts of wind. Now that's exciting. It's fun weather to watch, and to be in usually. I still like to walk home in the rain. It's just so much fun, and feels so good. Some people would say, then take a shower. Pssshhh that's not nearly as good. Being out in a rain storm is so much more enjoyable. Just a little scary when you hear some really close lightning. Cause you might die like my ancestor Benjamin Franklin Stewart. He was struck by lightning while in his carriage, outside his house. The town Benjamin, Utah is named after him. That's my claim to fame.

Have you imagined yourself flying around like in the movies where the wind is so strong it picks you up. You're holding onto lamp posts and other things to keep from flying into space? I have I think it sounds fun. But it sounds a little dangerous, so I'll save that for how I'll die. Have you noticed that even with the lights rain under the right roofing it sounds like it's pouring? Yeah it makes it seem really dreary. Not a good thing for you when camping. Except it makes you really happen when it stops. But you do tend to get giant pills of mud on your shoes when that happens. But who cares right? It stopped raining. Lost yet? Welcome to my life.

A good snowstorm is fun as well. Like the one day I walked home from the testing center in shorts and sandals. In my denfence it wasn't when I went in. And as I walked out I show a reporter and her cameraman. I was so tempted to walk behind her but I figured, that it would take to long. But I got a few wierd looks from people on my way back to the dorms, the 3 other crazy people out in the storm. I'm known as a polar bear to most people. Mostly cause I enter places all white from the snow. Yeah I usually have steam coming off my head when I come in when it's cold outside. Doesn't happen much now, but it happened all the time when I was younger.

I can't say I've had any close experience with lightning, but people I know have some pretty close encounters. My uncle was backpacking in Mammoth and he was in a big meadow with one tree in it, and then it started to rain and thunder, so he quickly got out of there. I think that would be pretty scary. Especially when it's the 3rd day of your 5 day trip. Remember being as a child that when you heard thunder you had take into account your shoe size for how far away it is. Now that seems so dumb. Your feet have nothing to do with your hearing. I mean come on. It's more likely your ring size is more likely to effect it.

No hurricanes or tornadoes under my belt either. I mean I live in utah, our tornadoes are practically none existent. I have had plenty of earthquakes, but I don't think that involves the weather.

Jake wins.

Cousins, cute little ones

Well my aunt , uncle, and cousins came over this weekend. My uncle Kevin, a profeesor at Gonzaga, Aunt Chirstine, Ian , and Miles, they're 5. They came all the way from Spokane Washington. They got here around 11:30 pm, having left around 9. So they had a long trip and went to bed. The next day the twins woke up and played so me Super Smash Bros. with us.Drew, Miles and Ian. So next we went up the road from us to go up Dry Canyon. It was a good hike.
Family Photo
View of Mt. Timpanogos Temple
View of my house, the brown one.
And a darling picture of my Cousins.

While on the trip, we saw a Diamondback, a rattlesnake. We also saw a gardener. We saw plenty of flies and bees. It was a really fun thing to do. My arms still hurt from carrying Miles a far way, cause he was hungry, and really didn't want to walk. But eventually he wanted to walk cause his brother was. Well after that we went and had Tommy's Burger. Where they have Vienna Dogs, from Chicago. Which reminded me of Owen. But it was really good, and I had Cherry Coke which reminded me of James. Whom I get to see in like 2 weeks. Then we went home and played some Mario Kart. Later we went and had some La Careta. Well that's about it we did with them. So that's been my yesterday.

Movies in 3-D

So when you put two pair of glasses on do you see in 6-D or 4-D? I saw Monster House in 3-D today, was really cool. It's the same movie, just in 3-D. But during the previews they told me to put on the glasses but I already had them on. Nightmare before Christmas, is coming out in 3-D in Octber, so that'll be cool to see, those of you who will be here still. But you do have to buy your glasses, for $1.50? I don't know exactly cause my dad covered that part. But they are pretty dorky looking. Big thick black frames. Well the lens aren't red and blue. Here just look at this pic.


They should have had me be the model, cause I make anything look good. I think they'll come out with new frames for each new movie, that is if 3-D comes back. Cause they really do some cool things in that movie with the 3-D. You can tell some things aren't really 3-D cause it is just an optical illusion. Thank goodness that our minds think too much sometimes. But it's bad sometimes too with certain things.

Yes I did get a haircut, I got it at Fantastic Sams. I think I lost about 5 pounds from doing that. It's for some more passport pictures for my visa. And even before I go to Brazil, I'll need another haricut. I'm sure the people who'll give me them will love me, cause my hair grows way too fast.

Not much else happening here other than that. Still doing the same old, same old. See you next time, here in my lil world.

We went Idaho

We had a wonderful drive to Rexburg to visit my cousin and my aunt and uncle. After the 4 hour drive went to go see Pirates II it was great. Issac's baby head is shown here. From R-L Zach, my mom, Aunt Anna.

Here is Payson, Zach's friend's from his mission nephew.The entrance to the cave we visited. Called the Civil Defense Cave
It was cold enough in the Cave that there was ice. It was really cool.
No flash here, only flashlights.

Oh there's the flash. L-R Zach, Bryce(Zach's friend from his mission), my Dad, Unlce Jeff(Golden Gramps), Bryce's Dad, Drew.
We had a few tight spots.
Yay, the exit.
Looking back into the cave.
My dad had a little spill.
A little dune jumping, who would have thought there was some in Idaho.
Then we had some grub from Big Jud's. They had burgers that came in 1lbs, 2lbs, 3lbs.
L-R my Dad, Drew, Uncle Jeff, Issac, Zach, me, Sarah

Here's me and one of my polar bears. Can you bleive he used to be as big as me?
Here in my room. My bowl from my wonderful birthday cake, with a glass of milk. And my vanilla cream soda from the 4th. As you can see I have just so many things to take pictures of. I mean it's just mind blowing.

Happy Birthday to me!

Well i'm 52 now, 52 weeks older than I was last year. I got to turn 19 as I watched Superman Returns, that was pretty cool. Well not much has happened yet, I got some birthday money from my grandpa. That's as far as the presents and other such things have gone so far. I guess I shouldn't be expecting very much at 10:28. Lol, I just felt like posting this earlier, maybe I'll come back and add some stuff later. o.0

PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!






Well I felt that I haven't posted enough pic lately. So here are some.

Friday, June 09, 2006

Anything goes!

I figured it's about time I have a post were I just ramble on about anything and everything. So let's start with the wonderful weather going on right now. There is a spectular lightning storm going on right now. All the lightning, it's so great. The tempature is like perfect, I could just sit out there and watch it all night. Speaking about lightning my brother, Joe, was almost struck once. It was at Martin's Cove in Wyoming. But he was ok. This shake that I'm having is so goooood. It's cookie dough, I made that must be way it's so good. OR itcould be that I was craving something sweet all day... Dinner was fantasitic, La Careta was delicious. If you haven't been there you should go. Oh the rain makes me think of poodle..i mean puddle jumping, with Kelsey, Owen and Savannah. The first two being prolly the only ones reading this...lol Yeah all the splashing and stuff, makes me giggle like a school girl. I have a lava lamp, in my room, I'm still not sure if I'll ever use it. DDR is still fun. I guess I've played it a little too much. You know how I know this? When I close my eyes I see the arrows. But I'm getting better. Getting down not resting in the center but keep you feet on the directions. So hopefully I'll get that down, I definetley the best that were here tonight, but that's not saying much. Can I beat Kelsey, maybe we'll just have to see. I still wish I had a digitial camera. Cause then I could give you a tour of my room. And if any of you think I can set you up on a date, well too bad, I don't want to do it. I've decided that it's too much work. mumble mumble mumble mumble....well i guess that's it... I thought I had more to say, oh well. :)

Isn't winning great?

You to play something, and you come up against someone one who is supposedly better than you. You start to think, "Oh no, I'm going to get wasted." Then it turns out that you just totally kick their trash! Yeah after something like that you just feel sooo gooood. Well it might be just me, but I like to assume that everyone else feels the same way. Well I guess winning in general just makes you feel better. Even if the other people don't even stand a chance against you. But if you lose to those people you feel so bad. Cause you should have won but you didn't.

Losing is something that we all do sometime. Either in a game or some other competion. They saw you learn no lesson when you win, but a thousand when you lose. These lessons I have usually to be about me. What is important to me? The happiness of others or mine? Is this game really that important to me? Is winning all that I live for? Is competing something I enjoy? These are just some of the questions I've found losing answers. Losing can be in several different things. In school there is competion for getting the best grades and scholarships. Losing in school can be quite discouraging. But winning can be one of the greastest joys. Getting that A you worked for so hard is so rewarding. But some people are just naturally are good in school and so we all hate them for that. People can also lose in love, by falling out of it. It is said that, "It is better to have loved and lost then to never have loved at all." Love is something that is a precious gift that we are given. It brings so much happiness into life. But when you lose it there is an empty void in your life. A hole that needs filling. But nothing can replace it. But even greater love can repair the whole though. The love of a loving God. He'll help you fix your problem.

2-3 week waiting period :(

Now All I have to do is wait 2-3 weeks before I know where and when I'm going on my mission. I'm so excited and I just can't hide it. So if you couldn't tell what I just said, my mission papers are in. So I'm doing a lil dance. *dancing* *even more dancing* *knocks over a lamp* opppss *stops the dancing* *sweeps the broken lamp under the couch* *starts whistling as he walks the from the scene of the crime* I don't know what's going to be harder waiting for the call, or to wait to leave. I guess I'll just have to see about that. Well this is hagspam(HideAndGoSeekPAndaMan) signing out.

Removing Wallpaper

Yeah that's what I did for most of the day, remove wallpaper from our kitchen walls. Man, that was just so much fun.... All the icky goopsy glue remover everywhere. It makes you all itchy. The splash from it being sprayed on the walls. But it's really fun when you get a giant strip to rip off. We got to a part where my mom srumbed all the time, so there was like no paper to get a hold of to remove it. So it was like 3' by 6" piece of wallpaper took us an hour. Some of you may be wondering why we're no0t using a steamer...well we tried it before and it didn't work :( So we're stuck with that spray. No fun at all. But at least it looks a ton better now. All of you who have came over, and if you looked at the kitchen would agree with me of how bugly it is. Yes bugly, it's a step above ugly.

Mission Papers

Doing my mission paers has really gotten to start thinking. I'm about to go off somewhere a preach my heart out. It's just really an amazing thing. I mean there is other stuff I would like to do but I know that this is what I'm supposed to be doing. Got the Dentist appointment over with. ^_^ Tomorrow my least favorite thing, a physical. >_< Well still a lot of things to do tough. I've started to hate paper work even before I have a job. I guess its just preparing me for one. I mean the Eagle Project paper work is easy. Its just annoying to everything signed and stuff. My mission is going to be great, I can just feel it. My brother calls us on Sunday, YAY!! That's definetly the best mother's day gift anyone can give.

Home again at the home again

WOW!!!! Finals are finally over(I'll never get tired of that one). The fun may now begin. For some the fun ends in a week. Cause they're going to Spring Semester.....0.o....For others like me it's going to be 2 years of hard work. I'd go over all the things people are doing but....that'd take me way too long to type it out. So if I left you out...well...just get used to it. It's nice being home again. Even though I've only been here for ummmm four hours. Why is saying good bye so hard. It's only normal to leave people behind. Be they from Michigan, California, New York, Utah, Colorado, or even Illinois(Cause who's from there anywho?) I guess when you say good bye though, some people are going ahead of you. So that can make you feel just about a foot tall. Also when you don't see people for awhile a lot could have happened. You might have wanted them there for something. And they weren't!!!!!!!!! lol.....I'm going to miss all my friends that I made in college. Well I guess some made friends with me.....but I'm still going to miss them. It is now time for me to start working on my mission papers.....scary thought. A job is also to be something that I'm supposed to get...hmmm who would want to employee me....who knows!? I finally can start cooking my own food again. Yesssssssss.... Yumm tuna sandwiches....dreams do come true. Well see you next time.....well maybe not see but umm you'll see what I type....

School is almost OVER!

Winter semester is coming to a close here. Only 10 days of class left. Then finals for a week. YAY!!! With school being over though, that means I get to say good bye to everyone...:'( >_<. Well I'm sure we'll keep in contact for maybe a few weeks then it won't happen anymore. Except some special people. Which is usually like one person. And sometimes it's even more than that. Well I found finals week to the funest week in school. Cause some people, like me, don't really need to study for some classes, so we play instead. And that week is Savannah's B-Day is guess we'll need to plan something. And this time I need to remmeber to sell back my books^_^ We sure do have a lot of things left to do before this semester is over. Like hiking the Y and going places to eat. And even going to see Arsenic and Old Lace. Any more ideas just a post them cause that would help me remember them ty. I still can't believe that school is almost over. It still feels like it just started.

Pandaman

No this is not how I got my hideandgoseekpandaman handle. That came from CTR(Crash Team Racing). This is one of my first stuffed animals if not THE first. His name is Jealous. He's been through a lot. He's had an ear ripped off. Head sewn back on twice. Thats a lot for one little guy. He's been left out in the rain several times. He's in the shape that most people would threw him out. But he's so important to me that I'd never do that. I dont sleep with him. If I did anywas he's head would probably would come off. Well with the ear thing, well me and my brother were fighting over him for some reason so I was holding onto his with my teeth. My brother was pulling on is body. And there was this rip and his ear was in my mouth and the rest of him was with my brother. He still has the original stuffing in his head. But it's as hard as a rock. His nose is gone, I dont remember why. He's not very black and white. It's more of a tan than a white. Well here he is.

The Truth About Computers

If People Thought of Cars like they do about Computers - Tech-support people will find this especially amusing ...

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

General Motors doesn't have a "help line" for people who don't know how to drive, because people don't buy cars like they buy computers -- but imagine if they did . . .

HELPLINE: "General Motors HelpLine, how can I help you?"

CUSTOMER: "I got in my car and closed the door, and nothing happened!"

HELPLINE: "Did you put the key in the ignition slot and turn it?"

CUSTOMER: "What's an ignition?"

HELPLINE: "It's a starter motor that draws current from your battery and turns over the engine."

CUSTOMER: "Ignition? Motor? Battery? Engine? How come I have to know all of these technical terms just to use my car?"

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

HELPLINE: "General Motors HelpLine, how can I help you?"

CUSTOMER: "My car ran fine for a week, and now it won't go anywhere!"

HELPLINE: "Is the gas tank empty?"

CUSTOMER: "Huh? How do I know!?"

HELPLINE: "There's a little gauge on the front panel, with a needle, and markings from 'E' to 'F.' Where is the needle pointing?"

CUSTOMER: "It's pointing to 'E.' What does that mean?"

HELPLINE: "It means that you have to visit a gasoline vendor, and purchase some more gasoline. You can install it yourself, or pay the vendor to install it for you."

CUSTOMER: "What!?" I paid $12,000. for this car! Now you tell me that I have to keep buying more components? I want a car that comes with everything built in!"

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

HELPLINE: "General Motors HelpLine, how can I help you?"

CUSTOMER: "Your cars suck!"

HELPLINE: "What's wrong?"

CUSTOMER: "It crashed, that's what went wrong!"

HELPLINE: "What were you doing?"

CUSTOMER: "I wanted to run faster, so I pushed the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor. It worked for a while, and then it . crashed -- . and now it won't start!"

HELPLINE: "It's your responsibility if you misuse the product. What do you expect us to do about it?"

CUSTOMER: "I want you to send me one of the latest version that

doesn't crash anymore!"

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

HELPLINE: "General Motors HelpLine, how can I help you?"

CUSTOMER: "Hi! I just bought my first car, and I chose your car because it has automatic transmission, cruise control, power steering, power brakes, and power door locks."

HELPLINE: "Thanks for buying our car. How can I help you?"

CUSTOMER: "How do I work it?"

HELPLINE: "Do you know how to drive?"

CUSTOMER: "Do I know how to what?"

HELPLINE: "Do you know how to drive?"

CUSTOMER: "I'm not a technical person! I just want to go places in my car!"

Mission calls Mission calls everywhere and not one for me...

About everyone I know is now going on a mission. Let's see one of my friends is going to DC south, one's going to Dominican Republic, one's going to California Long Beach. I mean, I look around everyone is turning in their papers, and I'm just sitting there twittling my thumbs. I'm kinda of afraid of going, but I know I'll do a good job. I'm really excited at the same time. There are other people though who are 100 times more excited than I am. Right now I'm just looking forward to spending some time with my family. Cause school right now isn't that challenging. Well not in the way I want it to be that is. I mean the memorizing and stuff is hard, but I hate that stuff. I find it to be rote and bothersome. I was really good at it at high school. Being at college though, I'm not so good. My study habits are the same. So, right now I'm trying something new. Reading it out loud to myself. So far it has worked wonders. I'm remember stuff more readily. So I hope that works out. I was having the same problem last semester, so I know it's not the girls. Last semester my classes where much better than this semester. Cause last semester I had classes I actually like the stuff I was learning about. So I guess I just need to plan better next semester. ^_^ College is still great. I just love it so mooch. lol i mean much.... Byu us just a great place to be. Still hate those CS labs. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....>_< But um I'll get over it. If it doesn't get better soon, I'll just have to go visit my dad. Cause he'll know how to fix it. Reading what Abe Lincoln is fun to read. That guy is just amazing. He learned just about everything from reading. What a brilliant mind that man had. Wow this sure did get off the title. I guess I decieved all three of you that read this. LOL. Well thats it for this time. TTFN

Twilight Princess

I'm so excited about the new Legend of Zelda coming out. It's supposed to come out on April 15....but we all know that it always gets pushed back. Knowing my luck it will come out when I'm on my mission. Then I'll have to wait two years....But I guess, I wont have to buy it then. Cause someone else in my family is bound to do it...I mean look at theis pic. Doesn't it just look awesome.

This is just an animated GIF, which I still wish I knew how to make these...grrrrr....gah? Whatever....Anywho if you have any cool animated GIF's I would like to see them. I still really like this one. The explosions and stuff....the sword fighting....and ummmmmmm.........the sword fighting. <('.')> <('.'<) <('.')> (>'.')>

Cancer Center Food


Thats right, according to my research that, the Cannon Center food does increase your chances of having cancer. So stay away if you can. If you had it, its too late. I weep for you :,( #_#. Don't worry if you had it though. It only increases it by .0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001%. So no worries. Cause everything causes cancer, so dont eat, sleep, or do anything if you don't want cancer.

What in the world are you supposed to do when you're sick in the dorms? I mean you obviously dont go to class. But what about food!? You supposed to go get everyone else sick by going to the cafeteria? No matter what its a win lose situation. Cause you could go to the vending machines....But thats not very filling...Oh well. I guess I'll just have to figure something out.

But i do reserve the right to refuse to answer the question. Well the reason for the Wooden Forest... Well my handle is usually Mokujin. And if you any know anything about Tekken. You would know that he's just a Wooden Person. And if you know Japanese. You would know that Mokujin means wooden person or forest person. So thats why its the Wooden Forest.
