blowin' in the wind

The Bob Dylan concert on Tuesday was WONDERFUL! I went with my dad which was very fun of course. It was at an outdoor arena in Tucson and it was sprinkling lightly while we waited for the show to start but the sun was shining through the clouds at the same time so it was just beaufitul weather. What a view..Bob Dylan with nothing but rolling hills of green desert and storm clouds in the backround. And he did just awesome. Love that man. He played many good old songs too, which included..Leopard Skin Pill Box Hat, Lay Lady Lay, Watching the River Flow, Simple Twist of Fate, Stuck Inside of Moble with the Memphis Blues Again, Most Likely You'll Go Your Way(And I'll Go Mine), Highway 61 Revisisted, and he even ended the show with a great version of Blowin' in the Wind. what a show!

five stars and two thumbs up

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, being my favorite Harry Potter book, has also become my favorite among the movies. If you havent seen it, I'd advise you to. It is AMAAAAAZING!

I'll meet him again in Tucson Arizona

Well, last night as I was retireing to bed, a good friend of mine began to text meaningless small talk. He started off by asking me, in a mock excited manner, if 'I was going to the Bob Dylan concert?!?!' and I told him that Mr. Dylan did not have any dates coming up in Arizona. However, I wasn't to fool myself, so I checked anyway. Lo and behold, there was a concert to be held in Tucson on the 24th of this month. I proceeded to purchase my tickets and thanked my friend who then admitted that he was completely guessing about Bob Dylan and that he would be the last person to know whether or not Bob was coming. How amazing! Im glad my friends like to make fun of me for likeing him.

great read

well i finished reading The Pianist today and I can tell you it was one amazing book! Although both the book and movie (especially the movie)are very graphic, the story is unbelievable. Wladyslaw Szpilman is one of the most incredible people Ive ever read about. I would recommend this awesome quick read to anyone. That is, anyone who wont get bored with a WWII book that is mostly narrative.

ice cream

I accompanied a friend to dipin dots today and although I am well aware of my fondness of their delectible Banana Slpit flavored ice cream, I went ahead and got their Rainbow flavor. I am here to say that it was pretty good. If your a fan of Trix cereal, you will like their rainbow dots. Only setback is it turns your tounge to unrecognizable colors of red, blue, yellow, and green..which really, in the end, births into one big gross color of blah brown.

Well, today was the second day of summer school. I am taking economics and am actually quite enjoying the subject. So, I suppose the fact that I am sitting on the same rediculously uncomfortable chair for over 4 hours every day, may be irrelevant. But yesterday was particulary hard as I beleive I might have lost the book I was reading. The Pianist. I cannot find it anywhere. Sad. Then to top it off, the Snickers bar I bought today at the vending machine to extinguish my venting hunger was all melty and mooshy. And as my quarter in change deposited out the mini garage door flappy thing on the machine, it proceeded to plumit out to the ground and get lost behind the atomic-bomb-proof grates they have protecting the precious goodies. oh well...at least i know why countries with the least amount of oppertunity cost are more likely to specialize in a certain area of production.

efy- me and my cousin mal

This was the last day and right before the last dance. No kidding either, right after this picture was taken, we ran inside and showed those civilians how to tear a rug.

one of my favorite books ive ever read

i apologize for the three posts in a row regarding books. but its summer and reading is all i do. but really, this book is definatly in my top 5. i just got done reading it again and i do not usually read books more than once. A Seperate Peace by John Knowles.

good find at byu bookstore

well as i was attending efy this past week in utah, during lunch it got really boring so i went into the byu bookstore and found this book. i saw the movie previously and thought it was very good so i got the book and it has been equally as good.
