We had a club picture for PTP last week. It was pretty cool…bah, now everything I post away from school will just bring back memories. :-P I’ll just have to get over it. But yeah, I like PTP. ;)
Pi Theta Phi, wdag? hah...but yeah, I love these people. :)
The Seniors.
I don’t know some of the seniors here too well, but I have been blessed by each one of them. There is such personality represented here, and I could write a whole shpeel about how each person has encouraged me and motivated me in some way or another, but I’ll just say that in this picture are role model encouragers, super God-followers, some sa-weet vball players, and all in all a hugely blessed group of girls (plus the stickaman) that have been giving so much of their lives to others.
But enough of that stuff…if you want full size pictures to inspect faces or print or whatever, here you go:

I don’t usually post blog updates solely to show a video that I found unless it is super great. I don’t even like soccer and this video makes me want to play, gives me the shivers, and inspires me (even if only to make videos ;)). Watch it and weep:
I hope that you liked the video as much as I did. :) I probably watched it about five times by now. Read the rest of this entry »

Once upon a time in the caves of Searcy, an idea was originated. This idea was so good that it could be matched by no one. It was an idea encompassing a level of collaboration that this state has never seen before, an idea so original that its like has never been made–an idea to…make an anchorman spoof involving a bunch of beaux.
Crazy, I know, but it happened, and videos have been kept secret long enough, and now they are being unveiled to all the world, along with some pictures of the event. :P
Now, here’s the video:
There you have it. I’m not a very good actor (to say it lightly) and my voice work needs work. It’s okay though, I still think it turned out great. The middle section of the video was passed around to the different beaux to do what they wished to it, so it was a neat collaboration project thing that involved a lot of cool guys. :)
Here are some of the other videos:
Zeta Rho Video – Mark Baur edited this, and did a stellar job with taking the idea and running with it. Good stuff. =)
DGR “most active beaux on campus” beaux for playing the video with no story added to the beginning or the end (basically 1:58 to 6:13), way to go. ;)
JGJ beax for just using Delta Nu’s video…haha.
KJK for not even showing the video at all. Hmmm. By the way, why am I the only one that thinks “‘Parking lot’? More like ‘parking less.’” is hilarious?
[non sarcastic] Brett Ellis for heading this up and doing a super editing / filming job.
If you have any more stories or anything of what was was shown at the different clubs’ functions/formals, shoot me a comment so that I can add to this and make fun of more people. ;)

About a week ago PTP voted in four new beaux. About this time last year I was all giddy with excitement and anxious for what the future would bring. This time around was still really exciting, but instead of having a mob attack me, I was the mob, although I played the role of grandma and tagged along towards the back trying to get some video. It’s just a lot of fun running around campus with 100 people.
Some frames from the videos I took. Might make a video one day.
Now, some stuff about my year as a beau. It’s been a good time. There’s been the ups and downs, but all in all it’s been a blessing. :)
It’s sometimes a lot of work to be a beau, especially if you can edit/film videos and take pictures. ;) Editing and organizing the making of videos can also be a lot of work. I learned to freak out less about it now, but I’ve spent up to 10 hours messing around on a single beau video. The cost of being a perfectionist.
There are many different ideas about what your role as a beau is, but it’s definitely takes a lot of commitment.
I had pretty high aspirations about integrating Christ into more conversations, but for the most part this has been unsuccessful. This has to do with everyone in general, but also ptp.

Here are a few pictures from yesterday at the PTP function. :)
Napoleon and Deb (she's great. :))
I'm Jon and I approve this message and Randy, but not Waddell.

p.s. I watched Napoleon Dynamite for the first time in a while before the function (you know…to attempt to get in character). Hilarious. I forgot how great that movie is. :)
