In Reality

I am not so sure how much I actually want blog here on this place as much as practice HTML/CSS. I have always wanted to do HTML/CSS, PHP, JS, Perl, Ruby on Rails, and just about any other web developement language known to man. But I find that I am just to lazy to go and find any kind of website/domain because anything that is worth my time is also worth my dollars which I have very few of right now, (and seemingly always). So as I kind of get used to this whole blogspot thing I hope to be able to put up some of my own widgets and maybe document what I did (ie using the whole blog thing) and from time to time make some posts about what I am doing and going through in my life, (because boy have I gone through a lot these last few months).

As far as my initial forae into the massive realm of web developement I found a neat little program that installs a Apache Web Server, PHP, MySQL, and Filezilla (an FTP protocall). It does it all independantly because I am just to lazy to find, install, and configure all that myself... The best Part about it is it's FREE!!! It's called XAMPP. Check it out here.

Maden Voyage

So this is the first forae into this whole blogging thing... Hopefully I auctually find things about myself I find important enough to post. We'll see. I guess a brief introduction is in order.

Right now I am a college student attending BYU with the hope that some day I'll get a degree in Computer Engineering. There are a few little hickups that keep on getting in the way, such as paying for college, once I am auctually able to pay for college to be able to get myself to college, to be able to register for the classes I need to take to graduate, to auctually pass the classes that I need to take to graduate, and keeping myself at at least a moderate level of sanity. As one can see this whole college degree is somewhat complicated and I find it a miracle that I consider it even possible to graduate.

After a year at BYU I decided it was time to serve a prosyliteing mission, (that may have something to do with a rather traumatic semester at school). I submitted the paperwork and was sent to Argentina. I spent two years there and I loved it so much. There was on ocassion that I loved it so much I thought to myself and said out loud (sarcastically), "If I knew absolutely how much fun this was going to be I might not have come." However, serving a mission was about the best thing that I have ever done. I learned a lot about life, myself, another culture, language, and I met some of the most amazing people I have ever met.

But like all good things (except for marrage) my mission had to end. And I came home and got to chill with my family for a whole of ten days and then I went back to school...

I rather missed my sisters after hardly not seeing them for two years so I came home. I would describe my sisters but they all seem to have blogs and you can go and see them if you desire to know more about them.

And I guess that's about it for an introduction we'll see when I post next...
