new items!

you know my love for journaling and i couldn't continue my weekend without picking up a new one, which i didn't realize i spent $30 on until i looked down at the receipt, that's how much i wanted it:


these are horrible pictures of how wonderful it is close up, but its a suede deep blue with white lined pages

and here's a close up of some of the designs in it plus the little string/bead that keeps it closed.

i also drank coffee this morning from my first thrown mug!! i've enjoyed ceramics through the semester, but my favorite is the glazing and final outcome (well duh). i call this the papa mug because of how large it is and the handle that comes off of it.



on a scale from 1-10, this would be a 7.
i'll list reasons for you so when you go shopping now for a new coffee mug you know what qualities to look for:

1. the handle is not that comfortable for the hands, you can hold it by the finger which becomes heavy on your hand or you can slide 2 fingers in comfortably to maintain weight.
2. it holds almost 3 cups of coffee which i think it pretty wonderful, but the center isn't straight down, it has some lumps inside.
3. the lip (top) of the mug isn't rounded up nicely so you can't just drink the coffee from any angle, you need to figure out where it won't spill on you.
4. what i do enjoy though is the shape of it and the glazing application i did creating a calm emotion, i want to be able to enjoy my coffee peacefully (since i typically have mine to start the morning)

happy coffee mug and journaling shopping!

My Favourite African American Hotties

Firstly, don't take offence if your favourite isn't on this list as you did with the redheads, it's just personal opinion and we're all entitled to one.

Also, when I did my hottest 20 ladies, someone noted that there weren't many women of colour on my list. Again, it's just personal preference, but that's not to say there aren't no gorgeous African American women out there.

Hence the inspiration for this blog. And I've purposely left out the bi-racial, hispanic, asian etc, ladies, just because I want this blog to be dedicated to chocolate ladies only.

So here we go on my favourites. (In no order.)

Rose Rollins.


Yeah, yeah, 'Tasha from the L Word' is hot as a butch(-ish) soldier, but just check out how pretty she looks with long, flowing hair! Sexy and versatile. Perfect.

Alicia Keys.


Look at the cutie! Alicia has the voice of a soul sistah and I personally adore her music. Plus, a girl who knows how to play an instrument? HOT DAMN.

Nicki Minaj.


I'll probably get some stick for putting Minaj on the list, but she's America's top rapping mama right now and she's a cutie!

Michelle Obama.


I couldn't leave out America's first lady, could I? She's sassy and in amazing shape for an older woman. You work it, Mrs. O!

Gabrielle Union.


I first saw Gabrielle on camp cheerleading movie Bring It On and later on TV cult series Friends, and both times I thought 'wow, what a pretty woman!' Disagree? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?

I could go on for quite a while, but that's all I have time for: my girlfriend just woke up due to noisy housemates, so I suppose I better go kiss her so she doesn't get cranky...

The Blowtorch's Big Book of Basketball Facts

brad

The book is done and it is a free download. Please download and enjoy some laughs at this book full of nonsensical jokes. Way full. Chock full, even.

Donate if you want, but I really just want this to be read. It's been on my computer for a year, and that's just silly because jokey-jokes have no timestamp.

So please, enjoy it. Read me at The Basketball Jones and follow me on Twitter and let me know if you like it.

This has been The Blowtorch.

Jeremy Sticks a Bowl on His Head, Peter Acts Like He's Really Cool, and Other Adventures

The Gibbons family has not posted any pics in a while. Here's a few good ones, starting with Jeremy learning how to lounge:

Here's the part where Jeremy sticks a bowl on his head. He really likes wearing hats and bowls, apparently He's also been known to stack sticky suckers on his head:



Here's the lucky parents of the young gentlemen, at a release party for Brandon Sanderson's / Robert Jordan's new book The Towers of Midnight. Both of us won prizes at the event.


Here's Peter, just after launch on a dinosaur slide at the Dinosaur Park in Ogden.


And here is Peter's best GQ pose at the same park:

There was one scary episode that day at the park. We were with friends digging for dinosaur bones when we noticed that Jeremy had vanished. We found him a short distance away staring at the ducks:

He must be thinking really deep thoughts.

Stay cool, kids.

being twenty-two

either i am beginning to experience the tiniest bit of old age or my brain is dying every second because i realized in my previous posts i said i was going to post about my birthday (already did) and then put looks instead of look*. those things have been fixed but i will NOT make any promises that it will happen again, even within this post. so so sorry.

spending a weekend in turner falls with 45+ girls is just what i needed to have my soul refreshed and a deeper longing for Jesus Christ, there are way more pictures via facebook but i thought i would post a couple that will make me remember this sweet time with my sisters.

majority of my sisters and for the ones who couldn't be here, i missed you very much!

my smallgroup's mascot is Hooters the owl, so she came with us everywhere and even spent time doing her favorite things such as playing in the leaves

and enjoying the cabin view.

a huge group of us went out to turner falls to experience some good rock climbing and water falls, such a humbling time.
He is good, the Father is so wonderful!

On 16 September 2007 (at 17 years and 19 days), Bojan made his official debut for Barcelona against Osasuna, replacing Giovani dos Santos in the 78th minute breaking Lionel Messi's record of the youngest Barcelona player to feature in a La Liga match. Three days later, he made his UEFA Champions League debut against Olympique Lyonnais, coming on at the 88th minute for Messi. He was, at the time, the youngest Barcelona player ever to feature in a Champions League game, at 17 years and 22 days.[7] He made his second Champions League appearance on 2 October, coming on at the 81st minute for Ronaldinho against VfB Stuttgart. On 20 October 2007 (at 17 years and 53 days), Bojan made his first league start for Barcelona away to Villarreal and scored in the 25th minute. It was his first goal for the club's first team and it made him the youngest ever goalscorer for Barcelona in a league match.Bojan scored his first ever Champions League goal on 1 April 2008 (at 17 years and 217 days) against Schalke 04, netting the only goal in the first (away) leg of the quarter-finals, making him the first person born in the 1990s to score in the Champions League and the second youngest player ever, behind Ghanaian forward Peter Ofori-Quaye, then playing for Olympiacos, who scored at the age of 17 years and 195 days.[1][2][10] Bojan finished the season with a record of 10 goals, breaking Raúl's

But again it was Bojan who both signed the second just starting a second time to take the ball from Xavi.Pique began shortly after the 3-0 tie in the head and appeared sentenced. However, Coro gave excitement to the last 20 minutes with a bit from outside the area, with a partnership of defense, and alleys, with a great shot m.48: Bojan. 3-0, m.56: Pique. 3-1, m.58: Coro. 3-2, m.69: Callejón.Referee: Megía Davila (College Madrid).

Spread my wings & fly~away.. Looking for peaceful place....& my dreams

Like I said b4, I am a human. I do have fault. I have my pride. Don't be self-prejudice!
I choose my own life. :-)

So many things collide...war & everything. It suck so bad. Dear god help us with our strongly prayer!!! :,-(

Starts the day again! There is a beautiful day waiting to come by...
