2011

A really cliche thing to do right now would be to reflect upon 2011 and tell you all what my year has consisted of and what I’ve accomplished. Usually, cliche things annoy me and I don’t want to contribute to the whole “cliche-ness” of it all but I have to say 2011 was a big year, a lot of stuff in my life did change. The most major events of my year would be that I finally accepted myself and in turn came out to I believe to over 25 people that I see/interact with practically everyday and I have been blessed enough to receive nothing but acceptance.Second, I have a absolutely wonderful boyfriend that has taught me so much and made me feel like no other person has before. My last momentous event would be that I am for sure going to college! Overall 2011 has been good to me, hopefully it’s been good to all of you as well. Make those resolutions and KEEP THEM (I always see at health clubs you always see the fall off of new years resolution people around March). Have a fantastic night! These are nights where memories are made (and sometimes forgotten) See you all in 2012!!!

 

KE$HA Pics

I had a lot of time to myself this morning and I unfortunately have nothing really to post about so I picniked some pictures of mine to mimic the style of Ke$ha’s cover arts. 

Senior Pic

Since these pics are kind of big I’ll scatter these out. I finally got them!!!

Liam

Last year my best friend Ellie asked me to prom at her school. It was a fantastic night where I made a lot of new friends from Ellie’s school. One of the people I met and became good friends with was Liam. We hung out a bit over the summer but this fall and winter we’ve become even better friends, because turns out he is gay as well. You could say he is one of my role models, because my New Year’s resolution is basically how he became out, so I don’t deserve the credit. Liam has been reading my blog and liking it (I think) so he told me that he was interested in doing something along the lines of blogging/videos.

Recently, he made his first video. It is pretty damn good if you ask me, high quality, good message, I am very jealous of his video making capabilities that I am definitely lacking in. So anyway I want to show you all his video. It is 16 minutes long but watch it all its fantastic!!

 

New Years Resolution Video

I’m still working on my video skills. It’s freaking hard and confusing and I would consider myself to be a rather tech savvy person. Oh well, I’ll work toward it. Subscribe to my channel if you like it/ have faith in me for them to be better. Also comment with video suggestions if you want on ANY topic. I’ll try. You guys are awesome!

Why?

I don’t know why this happened but for some reason I got a random spike in my views and I want to know why?

okay that is all for now. Lamest post ever right? Ill do a new years resolution thing soon!!

Lefse, Hockey, and Coffee

I am writing this post from my phone so I apologize for its brevity. Thursday I got together with Duke and we exchanged presents. I got him a wallet and some movie coupon and he got me a jacket, wild shirt, and wild hat.(Wild is the MN hockey team in case you didn’t know) Part 2 of his gift is he is going to take me to a Wild game. Just the two of us, best present ever. But he had to leave pretty early because his parents were getting suspicious of him.

Later that night I hung out with Alec (Al) he’s using his real name now, not that it changed much… We went to one of his choir gigs with some friends then we went to our schools hockey game so we could watch Al’s crush/interest play hockey. And we also made that video that is in my last post.

Yesterday, my family made Lefse, a family tradition at least 40 years old. For those of you who don’t know what it is, Lefse is a scandinavian potato crepe that you butter and put a generous amount of brown sugar on, then you roll it up. It’s potato-y, sweet, buttery and reminds me of Christmas. Here are some pics: 🙂

Later that day I was wearing a sweatshirt Duke had given me and my 14 year old sister asked who’s it was. It ate away at me that she didn’t know why I had his sweatshirt and why he keeps coming over. Yesterday night I took my sister out for coffee. On the ride I just blurted it out. “I’m gay” She looked at me and said “It’s Ok with me Andrew, I still love you.” She actually knew I was gay earlier when she read my essay that I left open on the computer but she still seemed surprised. We talked it out, she asked a few questions, she asked about Duke. She said I picked a good one 🙂 Overall it was a good night, now my whole family knows and I can stop hiding Duke when he comes over.

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas I’ll probably post after Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
