Chinese Food

Okay fine, Korean. The point is. I don't just cook Italian food.

This is a Korean Teryaki Bowl with rice, chicken, and cucumber. I seasoned the chicken with lemon salt. The cucumber surprisingly adds an amazing taste to the bowl.

My Love for Computers

I love computers... always have and probably always will. I love how dynamic and fast paced they are. I love how whatever I can imagine I can create just by using a computer. I think that this is the reason computers seem to bow down to my will. Whenever someone has a problem in the lab all I have to do is walk towards their computer and then it will start working. Isn't that freaky? But as I am changing my major the computer realm is coming back into my vision. Right now I'm looking at graphics cards. What is a graphics card?

A graphics card helps your computer process graphics everything from each letter that I type right now to movies you watch to games people play. Graphics cards come in huge varieties with two leading competitors. ATI and NVIDIA.

There are three different types of card hookups. PCI, AGP, or PCI Express. Most cards these days come in PCI Express but we used to have to worry about this when looking for compatible cards.

Everything that attaches to your motherboard requires energy, but the energy required to run a video card is very minimal.

The next few questions are the more particulars of getting a graphics card.

How many processors does it have? Obviously the more man power the more it can handle.

The next question is how much information it can store at once. This is the RAM of a computer. When Joseph saved Egypt I'm sure he built more store houses than they currently had. This is where all the information is stored.

When it comes down to it it isn't as complicated as I thought...

Almost time for class... I love computers. :( Yes, I'm a nerd.

Amazing People

When I was in high school I always wanted people to think I was good. But I wanted them to understand that after they got to know me... I was great. I wanted to come off at my very low so that I could find out who my true friends were. Needless to say that isn't a very good strategy for getting to know people.

I have found that the truly amazing people are indeed somewhat like this concept though. They don't want to come off prideful. They don't want to come off as amazing but in reality they are.

A person that learning about is my fiance'e Ashley... And she is truly amazing. Every day she surprises me more with how amazing she is. I will forever be in her debt for the patience and laughter and life that she gives me. I don't understand how someone can be amazing but I want to learn how to be like her. I look up to her and I'm so glad she's my best friend and that I can tell her anything! I've never had such a connection with anyone before. We just get each other.

I love her... and we went to the planetarium yesterday. We took some pictures.

Be Jealous. This is BYU folks. :)

My Life is an RPG

It has come to my attention that many of the concepts we see in RPG's like Skyrim are actually based off of real life. I've also been frustrated with my lack of knowledge about this earth and wondering how I can fix it. I need to start off by defining themes.

I feel like I'm trying to write my own Wikipedia of all the knowledge that I currently know. It makes me think of a way we can teach kids. What if we were to make a huge database with all the ideas stemming from a central concept, with expandable menus. We could then create exercises which we feel are sufficient for mastery of each concept and we can get more and more particular with these steps of knowledge. The only problem is that all branches of knowledge overlap with other branches. Is it truly possible to make a huge three dimensional web connecting ideas that need to be learned? I can see why we take so long to be in school and we still come out relatively uneducated. Now I want to make a website that will do this type of thing.

St. Valentine

My yesterday was smashing. It was filled with lots of love, lots of work, exercise, stress, and relaxation. Who'd have thought that so much could happen in one day.

First off, my fiance', Ashley, gave me lots of kisses. Chocolate Hershey's kisses. Enough to last me for an entire year! Pictures will follow when I can take pictures. Kisses are like my favorite candy ever. I love her so much.

I may have fractured my hand while playing hockey. Their offense came into our defensive zone with puck in hand, just him and the goalie. The other defender and I were right behind him. My fellow defense got his stick right on the puck but while bringing it back out their offensive man got caught and started spinning around. Next thing I know it he was on the ground sliding towards the wall and I am right behind him with no way to stop. My skates hit his body and I start flying. The next thing I know my hand hits the wall straight on. Even a glove can't save a hand at that speed. Then my helmet hit the wall and I was down on the ground. It was amazing! For a couple of seconds I was just limp on the ground. I finally got up, the whistle had blown for my line to leave the ice, and as I got up I realized what had just happened. I kept my hand limp as I made my way back to the bench. I arrived and took off my glove. What is the next thing that I do being my dad's and mother's child? I start stretching it. I start locating the pain so that I can massage it. I take off the glove and slowly rotate so that I can locate the beacon of fire pulsing through my hand. Finally I get all my movement back and I find out that the pain is next to my wrist pinki side. Within 2 minutes I am ready to play again. I finish up hockey and return home. My wrist now only feels bruised. When I apply pressure it flares up again but when I move it around it's great. Thank goodness for basic medical technique. I knew there was a reason I got my life saving merit badge.

The importance of groups keeps weighing down on my mind. It is important for us to be a part of groups. I really need to post more pictures.

Rumors can become True

So the Rumors are true. I found my true love. I'm engaged. I never thought that this day would be so close. It feels like my life has now accelerated beyond the speed of light. Will I ever be able to keep up with it? I have no idea.

Everything that I have written out on this blog when it came to finding my true love has come true. At least I think so. Maybe I have written some stuff that I don't even remember because I am so hopelessly in love. My friend Garrett made the comment this morning, "You made it look so easy." It's suppose to be easy. I was stressing out yesterday morning while I was talking with my mom and she said, "You're making things complicated. Just simplify them."

It's suppose to be easy. We go on dates and we find someone that we enjoy being friends with. That friendship blossoms into love. Once you become lovers and are dating you find out if you can work with this person. Friends don't need to work together. They just need to have fun together. Lovers do. Once you find out you are compatible at loving each other you get a confirmation and then you go for it. If it ever becomes complicated then you've lost sight of the simplicity, the simplicity that makes it possible in the first place.

So now we need to define some terms. What are friends? What are lovers? What does it mean to be compatible at loving each other?

When it comes to friends, you tell me. What are your friends like? Do your guy or girl friends care about you? Do they do things for you? Do they serve you? Do they compliment you? Do they give you presents? Do they spend time with you? Do they talk with you? What do you do for them? All these same questions should be asked in the reverse situation. Once you have defined what your friends are like. What do you want your friends to be like? What type of friend do you want to be like?

Find a friend who you are attracted to that fits this new definition. I found mine :). And she's perfect for me. Make new friends! The key is the action word find. How do you find new friends? That can be addressed later. I almost want to write a step guide on how to get married now. That's jumping ahead...

Now once you found a friend that you enjoy spending time around and you are attracted to get in a relationship. What does this relationship mean? It means that you're committed to working together. Being a boyfriend or girlfriend means that you should experience the small things in life together like inconvenience, sickness, health, laughter, stress, perhaps the doctor, grocery shopping, cooking, tiredness, relaxation, sports, and all the other stuff together. This is what being a relationship is about. How well do you work towards goals together? Do you support each other?

I tend not to work well with others. Just ask my mission companions. I have set ways of doing things that I think are the most efficient. But that is not always the case. I need feedback from others to tell me how I can improve my methods. I need to be a philosophical dialog with those around me to determine the best means to an end. That is even more my nature than not working well with others. But that is what my mission taught me. It taught me to love and learn from others. It taught me to be teachable and to help others with their goals. It taught me that when I keep in mind their desires and their wants we can accomplish anything. That's what made me want to be a dream builder. I have a very good sense of diligence when it come to other's goals. At least I'd like to think so.

Now once you are working well with this person and they are your friend, why not get married? Any objections?

Design

I will be getting a minor in computers and humanities. I have found out that I absolutely love designing things in particularly websites. I asked Matt if he knew of any way I could get more involved in that field. He pointed me in some good directions. What I need to do now is to come up with different ideas that I feel would make me viable to the field.

There are so many opportunities available! We just gotta get out there and grab them!

So I need to make a list of different things I want to design and then go ahead and do them.
