i bought a cowboy hat tonight. haha its awesome. Howdy y'all!

and in other news...i meant to blog this awhile ago, but yea. during the afternoon tennis clinic at The Park, one of the kids asked me if i was chinese. i said no of course...but then right after another kid asked me if i was Taiwanese. i was like what the...YES I AM TAIWANESE! hahaha. dude. little 10 or 11 year old kid asked me if i was taiwanese. taiwan was the 2nd guess they made before japan and korea etc etc...hahaha. that was awesome. and the story is done.

congrats youth staff. too bad jh staff is BETTER THAN YOU! haha oh im only half-joking. teeheehee.

Sunday, June 22nd. yea.

I guess im being strong, but i dont want to be. i want to be weak and frail and hold on. but i shouldnt. so i have to be strong. its for the best. yes? i pray that it is. i pray i dont regret this, unlike my actions...or lack thereof...3 years ago. but as they say in Rent, forget regret, for life is yours to miss. but i cant help it. im missing out on life. which is why i have to help it. which is why i have to be strong.

i ate too much at dinner. appetizer platter and a breakfast meal. one n jen didnt feel like going inside, so she called me to go get grub. brian came along. lori was working. it was a good time. the food counteracted with what i did earlier when i was "strong". yea. sure.

itll be a long road. a long journey. and it will take some times. hopefully it will work. well actually, i hope it wont. i hope there would be another way for this to all come to a conclusion. i hope id get the girl. but it doesnt seem that way.

so time to change focus and switch gears. work tomorrow, bright and early. i love my job. tac is in...uh...2 weeks...what the dilly. and hey, taf in like 6. whoa. taf in 6 weeks...

i cant wait. ill need to stay strong, at least till then.

- yaaaay! hootie & the blowfish is coming to the illinois state fair on august 15th! HOOTIE HOOTIE HOOTIE! who wants to come with???

- my toes hurt from hours of basketball.

- a couple of us guys at the Park are patching up cracks on the tennis courts. we had this cement tar stuff to fill it in, and well, it got covered my hands and was an f-ing ho to get off. I used some gritty soap...and well, it rubbed the skin off of my knuckles. it does not feel good. i also drew a tattoo "J" on my left arm, and oh man, it was SO COOL! i want a tat now, haha yea, it was sweet. i came off pretty easily though...and then the next day...it caused a rash. and my left arm was burning in pain. but i still want a tat.

- Being strong sometimes means being able to let go.

- Blah.

ahahah. eat it.

i was leaving the mall, and while i was waiting in the right turn lane, i looked back in my rear view mirror and saw that the car behind me was waiting awfully close. i didnt think much of it right away, but as i turned right he was still right behind me. didnt do anything major yet, although i did ride my breaks for awhile to see if he would continue to stay on my ass...and he did.

so as we left the next stop light, i pondered what i should do: speed up and see if he still rides me and then slam on my breaks? or just go 40mph in a 55mph zone? i chose the latter. and it was a success! as i drove along slowly, i could see him raising his arms in the air saying something like "c'mon!" in my rearview windown. He was getting frustrated and it was good to see. he was swerving back and forth in the lane....and luckily the other lane to my right had a slow van leading the way! we sandwhiched that mofo in there! eventually, he was able to get in the other lane 2 cars back...and then i sped up to piss him off. AND IT WORKED. i went to turn left but i had slowed down again to see if he would do something as he passed me. oh and it was fantastic! he rolled his window down...stuck his arm out the window and waved it around...and yelled something at me! i laughed. he was pissed. served him right for tailgating me. hahaha.

i only wish i would have done a cheerful "honk honk" as he passed me. that would have been the icing on the cake : )

in other news...i talked with haley liss on the phone for 22 minutes. random...?

so...

i was working tonight at the ice cream place. its a friday night, so the kiddies are out and about at the mall. 2 girls, who were at most 14 years old, walk up. one of them looks at ice cream, and the other asks me "will you give us a discount since we are hot?" ............................... are you kidding me???? kids....oy. needless to say, i didnt give them a discount.

hehe oh yes. so i was talking to emily vereen the other night. awhile back, she was looking at my glamour shots online and she showed her friends/roommates them too. they were highly amused, and apparently emily didnt want to tell them she knew me. hahaha. soooo, her friends thought my pictures were funny enough to send to other people...so...my glamour shots were making there way around the campus of Iowa State. ahahaha, im proud.

her roommates also wanted to print them out and put them up in their shower...but emily didnt want to see jon lee while she was showering. her boyfriend also did not like the idea either. ahahahahaha. i wonder how many people have seen my glamour shots...

dah crap. im going to have to start planning my high school reunion in like...3 years...

played a hackey sack game called kill today. it was fun. brian and steve play a lot at u of i, and well...yea i want to play again tomorrow.

tonight, went over to julie ashenfelters. tkast was there too. we hung out...until i left to go to ashlees to hang out. hehe. sam, linz, matt, nicho, and jen. we watched 2 weeks notice. i like hugh grant. i want to go to england for awhile and pick up the accent. that would be so coo

forizzle. gameplan for tomorrow....sleep, hackeysack, and probably help close at the ice cream store. oh and order a chicken fetuccini pizza from papa johns. oh its goooood.

seriously, youd think wed be able to grow up and not spend the night making fun of each other right? youd think so.

tomorrow is a pizzacked day....baseball @ 2, and then pleasant plains graduation @ 7, and then pleasant plains graduation parties afterwards. yea! good times and good (free) food! i love graduation time, its mm mm good.

and looking back on pictures of a few weeks ago...what the f took me so long to cut my hair.....

saw the matrix last night. it was good. good action, deep plot...although WAY TOO CONFUSING at some points. haha i just gave up trying to even understand during one scene. dupid. last night was actually action packed. well i got off work at 4, went to the mall with susan and ajit, got brian a matching headband-wristband set for his birthday (although its been a week...haha sorry brian), then went home for like an hour to shower and eat and talk TAF. woot woot!

then off to the shs-shg baseball game at lanphier with brian jake and ajit. met up with zkilla, tilldo, meagan, brett, brandon, missy, mindy,and brittany. haha jake and i were the loudest ones. before shs was about to score in one inning, i yelled "Awww shucks!" and then jake followed with the "You got the Solons fired up!" chant...and all of the students looked back at us. haha. go shs alumni! there were omre of us at the game then students almost...haha. but yea that was cool. and then of course shs scored. we had to leave though because ajit and brian were cold...but shs ended up winning in extra innings. piiimp. "say what!"

hehe yes. so yea then off to ajits to hang out, then out to the centennial park hill to watch the lunar eclipse. hurrah, good times....although it was ridiculously windy and chilly....and finally, off to the matrix. and the rest is history....

um...in case i wasnt clear...adrienne is not pregnant. she just has a book....haha good job beth. profile!

oh yea, while i was looking at adriennes baby name book...i saw Taiwan as a name for a boy. right....
