Tailgating and the Cheifs Win over the Donke- err Broncos

So going to skip a few weeks and talk about the Cheifs game I went to that I was invited to by my friend James.

James is a great guy, I've honestly never met anyone with a more positive outlook on life. When I'm feeling like crap I'm just around this guy 5 minutes and I'm having a good time.

So we went in the infamous RV - "Gary" as he likes to be called. Loaded up with a bunch of great friends. Some good food, and a lot of alcohol. Despite everything that had been going on at that point, I managed to have a great time. I invited my good friend Brian that I used to work with, when I was a project manager for a short time. It's always good to have him around :-)

My friend Behnaz, and her bf Justin stopped by too. We were parked at the way back because of the RV...so I had to go take a journey and find them. Took forever and a day, and everyone else got their good share of food and drinks while i escorted those two to the RV. hahah. It's all good though.

If you don't know anything about the Broncos, it can be said that there's a huuge rivalry between them and ourselves. It was pretty evident once we got there. There was a lot of love between cheifs fans, but Broncos...psh. I felt sorry for my friend Behnaz, she got confused and wore the wrong Jersey, apparently so did Justin. :-)

Here's Tanner and Jameson again. There was no evidence of falling trains, so Jameson looks a bit relaxed this time. Hmm, I realize that I don't have a picture of Cody...but he was there. He was hanging around with Adam and I think they went on a drunk walk.

Here's a picture of Me and Adam. There's a lot that could be said about how things have been between us. But, I love the guy dearly, and I'll always consider him a best friend, even if he doesn't feel that way anymore. Not sure if he'll ever see this, but yah...it was great hangin out with you that day man...and I hope that things eventually work out between us and I'm always here.

So on to the game! I can't give good play by play actions, all I have is a few pictures of the stadium, and I think I caught a picture of the Broncos and Cheifs fans who were getting into it. It was Unbelievably hot...I was about 2 min away from just sitting in the stands naked.

* I'd just like to note that Tanner suggested that first* HAHAH. But seriously...it was that hot.

Above: James and emily, Me and my buddy Brian - yah i decided to wear a hot black jersey- Go me. -_-.

I ended up forgetting what the score was...all i know was that it was a good time and can't wait to do it again. The cheifs are sucking right now, but they're my team. It's great to see all those people together cheering for a common goal - to Win, and that they did. I hear Behnaz had a hard time getting out of the stadium...and saw a few scuffles in the parking lot. But overall, order was kept and things were great.

So cheers to a great weekend, and the people that made that possible.

Boston and Anime Heaven

Ok,

so I've been procrastinating for a while writing about this Boston blog. But mainly it's because I've been so preoccupied with freaking EVERYTHING. Gosh..i got some good pictures and videos to post though so stay with me.

Well I got a chance to tour the east coast with the band I was in and one of the places we stayed in was in Cambridge, MA. - home to Harvard and MIT. I have to say I was a little overwhelmed by the campus itself, it was beautiful. At the same time, it did have this sort of...pretentiousness to it. Regardless, i was able to spend a little time by myself and take in some of the sights, so here are some pictures of Cambridge Square, and the college itself:










Yah...normally I'd have these pictures surrounding the text and looking all pretty and stuff, but I feel like I want to move on from these and get to posting the current stuff. Although Boston was an amazing city and I could see myself fitting in there great, it is way too expensive. But everyone was really friendly, I liked performing there.



In the shopping area around Harvard I happened upon the greatest store I've seen in a long time.


Ladies and gentlemen...prepare to be geeeeeked out.



I visited Tokyo Kid...which had to have almost every pocky flavor I could imagine. I can't even begin to tell you - I spent 3 hours in this place, talking with this girl who was hating on my anime choices, she was really about to get a dragon kick to her head...but i withheld myself. Instead I just cast a level 10 spell on her.



Yah, when i start casting spells...it's pretty much time for you to cash in your retirement. Because that's how I roll.


I will let the pictures speak for themselves- the glory that is... Tokyo Kid.

...........DROOL

At some later dates I'll touch on more from my east coast trips...New York was amazing, and I'm already making plans to go back and visit.

I have to tell you though...there is nothing that compares to the feeling of returning home. Kansas city is the first place that I've called home. It seems as if I just keep meeting incredible people. I've also met a lot of great people on my travels in the past few weeks...and more on that later as well.

Everything is quite unstructured at this point because my head is swimming with all the new developments that are going on. It is sooo exciting though.

Until next time....more videos, more pictures...more geekiness. You were warned. You brought this on yourself.

More Truth

It is in administering grace and forgiveness to others that we find grace for ourselves. Even when they don't deserve it, even when they don't ask for it, we forgive them, because in doing so, we learn about the free gift of grace, which God applies so generously to our own failures and weaknesses.Be merciful. Do not judge or condemn. Forgive others. Give generously. And be filled.
