Objective: Senior Project. Mission: Complete!!

It's the truth!! I'm all done. I passed my senior project Thursday evening and it felt gooood! For my project I taught swimming lessons and ended up making a little instructional video about teaching lessons. Here is the whoooooollllle story behind my project and the journey I went through in completing it.

I got my senior project approved before the summer of my sophomore year because I knew what I wanted to do by then and I figured that if I was going to work on it at all that summer I would want the hours to count. Well...I didn't work on it or even think about it.

Towards the end of last school year I started thinking about it again and found myself a guinnea pig to do the dirty work. Her name is Althea Rolfe and she if fo yeas ol. She is a totall crack up and totally down for having fun, which helps for sure! We started lessons during the summer and part way through she broke her arm. Not fun for her, annnnd it wasn't helping my project out any because she couldn't be in the water for 4 weeks or so. Once we got lessons started up again she got attacked by dogs while she was at a birthday party with her family. Unfortunately she has a gnarley scar on her little face now :( After she healed up from that one we started lessons again.

I gave her a couple sessions (2 weeks at a time) and each lesson was an hour long. Basically we had a great time everyday. She was an awesome student and I was able to make a sweet project about it.

Now it's over!! and I get to have a life! Hurray!! It's pretty weird that this whole thing has came to an end. I've had this thing lingering over my head for a couple years now and I guess I am sort of lost without this huge project to worry about. I think the only substitute is to have FUN!!

Thanks for reading! Congradulations to all of my friends and classmates who passed theirs as well.

Connection: FAILED

Unfortunately I got my phone stolen :/

<---- Dustin and I at the airport in Alaska busting a few typical cell phone poses :) I put this picture up because I took it with the Storm: 3.2 megapixel of awesomeness

I got it taken when I was reffing little kids basketball on Saturday at PES. I kinda feel ripped off because I felt like I was doing a good service and then Karma jacks my celly :( I think it was probably a little kid who thought it was a gameboy or something because my wallet and car keys were sitting next to my phone. Anyone with any sense would take the wallet. Not the cell phone. So right now my thief is either real young or real dumb haha....

I'm not too happy about it, but I'm taking this time while I don't have a phone to just be disconnected. When I first heard about the Blackberry Storm, I fell in love. It sounded like the coolest thing ever, especially since I had gone threw a few crappy flip phones. The Storm keeps me in touch with everything on the Internet; I've got my Facebook, Myspace, Email, Ebay, etc. on that bad boy. Now the only thing I've got to check up on these things is my laptop, which I love too :D

I've got all my pictures and music and such backed up on my computer, but the biggest deficit will be my contacts. I had around 200 random numbers in there and some of them I fear will never be able to be replaced. You know exactly who I'm talking about too: It's the "I never see them, but like to keep in touch through texts or calls Person". I think I'll be able to muscle through it :) Anyone who actually wants to get a hold of me will have my number as well and hopefully can figure something out haha.

So until I get my phone back....GOODBYE DIGITAL WORLD!!! I'm back to the good 'ol days when I checked my account from a computer...weird I know :) Sorry if I'm not getting back to you online, answering your calls, or texts, but I'll be back on my game in a few days or so.

My First Post

Here is my first blog post :)

I've created this blog as sort of a guide to life. Not exactly any style of life, just life and living. I plan on posting about places I go, things I do, tips, traveling, funny things, good stories, success and defeat. More or less, this is a Guide To: Sam Stout.

I hope you all enjoy!!
