’05 was quite the year. For me, it was filled with conflict, reflection, incredible sadness, exhilarating joy, and most importantly, growth. I suppose most years offer this, but the personal impact of the twenty-first year of my life was quite large. I invite you to take a look back with me as I reflect and [...]
The last few days have been fantastic and this trend looks to continue a little bit. Right now, I’m writing from the airport terminal in Las Vegas, Nevada as I wait for my parents to arrive. I’m in Nevada for the next few days to see family and ultimately, to put the “break” back in [...]
Merry Christmas and Happy Haunuka. I hope all is well folks. Last night, I did my immediate family Christmas. I got the two things I really wanted; a big wool coat and an olympic zip-up sweater. The wool coat is something I’ve wanted for a while. I had one when I was little that I [...]

I don’t see him motivated to do anything with himself and I think his friends are horrible, horrible people and [...]
So far, since coming back to Fresno on Monday evening, I’ve been to Starbucks on 5 separate occasions. I’ve frantically searched all of town for the perfect gifts and that’s essentially how I’ve spent my time. It’s so important for me, for some reason, to find gifts that are incredibly meaningful.

Been in Fresno for a few days now. I must start out with a big thanks to the good folks at work who let me bolt early and leave sooner than later. On Monday, I rolled into town just before 9:30 and met up with Matt. We caught up briefly at Starbucks and then mobilized [...]
