Hey dudes! Its been awhile since my last post! I've been busy busy busy, plus I decided that since my life really isnt exciting enough to post a blog every single day that I should only to one or two a weak. However today seems like a great day to write one. It's two o'clock Saturday morning, but technically for me it's still Friday since I haven't gone to bed yet (don't like that logic? too bad!). Today was a great day! Woke up just in time for school and for some reason I have a tough time making it on time to my one o'clock class, that just doesn't make any sense. Maybe it is my lack of desire to get there on time. Came home watched the office wedding again (hillarious) hit the gym, and then Headed to the Good Friday service. I must point out that the Good Friday service was amazing! I personally believe that Calvary Community Church is one of the greatest places on Earth! Tonight I got to meet Daryn's new boy friend Sam and hang out with Jordans new boyfriend Bobby! both seam like awesome kids. Finally, being a brother is a lot easier when the sisters bring home good guys! Grammy and Papa are also in from out of town which means they got the guest bedroom which means that I have to sleep in Jordans bedroom. pink galore!! Well, I think its time for me to sign off. I kind of have a busy day tommorow and can't sleep it away. I hope you guys all have a fantastic Saturday!

I'm in my room it's a typical tuesday night...
Hey guys! How is life? School is back in, but apparently I don't care. This isn't because I choose to not care but apparently my head hasn't got the message that spring break is over. I keep forgetting everything and stuff. Since I've been back at the condo (two days now) I have spend 15 minutes on two separate occasions cooking food before I turned the stove on. I am just out of it! Also, I have really bad O.C.D. I have had a very short temper and little stupid things have been making me angry. I need a mood boost! This week so far has been a pretty good weak (other than Obama being a douche, but I'm over it). This semester is going to go by very fast. Definitely can't wait for summer obviously since I have been consistent with my summer count down. Welp, I'm going to head to bed because if I'm awake and I'm not doing homework I feel bad, maybe that's me snapping back into school mode.

'Til Summer comes around.......


Hello E'rrybody how was your weekend? I'm gonna keep this one short, just a few little bullet points I'd like to cover.
First this weekend was...okay... it had its ups and downs. The lack of sleep I had and some events put me in a weird mood. First of all, softball on Saturday. I feel like a nerd talking about softball like this but what can I say. I had a little bit of a meltdown in our softball game because we were playing like balls and ended up losing to a team we previously killed. I know i'm being too competetive and i shouldnt be like this but in a church league second best at softball isnt gonna cut it! O well, we got a tough road next weekend to win it all. On second thought I should get involved in a real sport where I'm alloud to be competetive.
Second thoughts, Kansas and Villanova completely skrewed me over this weekend!
Third, well I was gonna talk about tiger woods and his latest interview but my rant about being an arrogant softball guy went on a little long, so i'll save that one for next week, THE MASTERS baby! Hard to get excited about golf but this is one i'll definitely be watching.
To conclude, I'll talk about my fabulous sunday! A bad sunday is better than a good 'any other day' of the week. We went to Nicold Coogles wedding. That was a blast, what wedding isn't? This one was special though because it was the first coogle wedding! It was good to see all the people that I havent seen in awhile and to hang out with friends. The electric slide wasn't bad either.
Well I decided to stay home one more night which means I gotta wake up and drive down to Tempe in the morning. I hope everyone had an awesome spring break and hoping you guys don't dread going back to the smoke filled, overcrowded, academic waste of time we know as school as much as I do.
Have a good one,
GB

Stop Looking At Me Swaaaaan!!!
Hey guys! how are you? I hope you all had a great day. I DID! Today I woke up early (10:00) and went to go play a little golf with Matt and Mr. Witwer. It was my first time golfing since like August so I compared myself to Tiger in the fact that I took a long break and now I'm coming back. Fortunately my life off the field is a little more put together, no offense Tiger but come on! I got all the way to the last hole before I snapped my pitching wedge. That is the first club I have ever broken out of anger for the record. Me and matt then went to the gym to do a lazy tricep workout, not great but got through it. My bracket isnt looking too good. All of my elite eight teams are still in it but I definitely could be doing better. Oh and last night I let Daryn drive for the first time since she's gotten her permit 2 weeks ago. We never made it over 15 mph and I had to inform her that: she shouldnt drive with both feat, the gas is the one on the right and the break is the one on the left, and that you have to push down the break to put it in gear. Thats okay though, its a work in progress. I think I'm more scared with her than when Jordan got her permit. Well tommorow morning is the first day of softball playoffs. I am going to be very mad if we don't win the whole thing... Well i'm gonna sign off now, its already 12:30 and I still gotta take a shower and get ready for bed. What happens to time? Hopefully it goes as fast during school as it did during break. Have an awesome Saturday everyone, all you guys traveling to and from home be safe.

Yes I am a pirate, 200 years too late...
Hey guys! How was your Wednesday? Spring break is going by way too fast! Today felt like summer, which was great until I remembered that I am about 10 exams away from it actually being summer. Today was the first lake day of 2010. Gorgeous I must say! After the lake we came home, went to the gym and I came out of my indefinite leave of absence from basketball and decided to play. I'm still pretty bad though. I hope tommorow isn't lame, I have nothing really planned. Hopefully something fun will come up. I really want to go to California! I just really don't want to have to pay to go to California. Well I'm gonna have to cut this one short or I'll ramble on about things you don't care about. Have a fabulous Thursday!

California Dreamin'
Hello Friend! (remember the show Lil' Bill, I think that was like the opening catch phrase 'Hello Friend') Good rant to start of my blog! Today was what you would call a good day. Looking back on it I don't even know why because I didn't really do too much. I guess that just proves that it's the little things in life that matter. I woke up and mowed the lawn for my dad because we had a tiny jungle growing in the back yard. After that I took a shower and got tired and layed around the house. By the way, today was a gorgeous day, I feel horrible that I was inside at all today. Once I got a second wind I finally got around to going to the gym with Matt... When we got home we went to pick up Daryn from the movies and spend an hour in circle K. We got icees and came home and played some icee pong! Me and Daryn, vs. Matt and Jordan... see the bottom of the blog for the winner! It shouldn't be a surprise since there isn't much that I lose at. Thats a joke, I'll name three things off the top of my head that any person with air in their lungs could beat me at... so here is Gaylen's humble moment of the day, anyone could beat me at basketball, golf, & wii bowling. Hey I learned something new about myself today... I think my favorite color is black. For the past few years I have always thought it was like navy blue but I realized I really like black. Some of you will argue that black is not a color but you can keep that to yourself! Alrighty, time for the exciting part of my blog... the quotes and shoutouts and good stuff.
I hope you guys all have a fantastic Wednesday!

Sometimes that mountain you've been climbin' is just a grain of sand...
Whats goin on amigos? Don't you hate when people combine spanish and english? I do! Hope you guys have had a fantastic day. Mine has been relaxing, i'll attribute that to not having any school to worry about. Nothin better than waking up at like 12 and having breakfast ready on the table. That was nice! I then decided to take my mum, sisters, nan, and mazie to starbucks so they could walk home... always a blast! After I had my share of estrogen at starbucks, me and Matt went to the gym. Got a pretty good leg workout in. I'd have to say my butt looks pretty good! Thats a joke, but not really! I then came home and checked my earnings from all my websites, and then updated them all. So check 'em out! That brings me to right now when I'm writing this blog for all of you. I'm trying to come up with something to do tonight, we thought about playing racket ball but stupid me left my racket at the condo. The girls are goin to the zoo tommorow and want me to go with them... I'm not really sure I want to fry out in the sun all day at the zoo though. Decisions Decisions. Well if you actually read this tonight and are bored, then let me know! I hope you all have a great night.
You guys are awesome!

My Favorite Day of the Week
Hello Everyone! Today was Sunday, also known as my favorite day of the week. My Sunday routine does not change very much from week to week, it's the tradition that makes it so much fun. Today I made my family late for an 11 o'clock church service. This is probably because I woke up at 10:36. However i did find out that the reason my alarm hasn't gone off the past two days was because I had it set for P.M. instead of A.M. So theres the blonde in me! Church was awesome as usual! After church we went over nan's house for waaafffles. It's always fun to be with the whole family, very revitalizing after a tough week! When we came home, me and Daryn went out by the pool and caught some rays. My legs are soooo white, so is my stomach but my legs like glow! Spedo here I come... Totally just kidding! I then helped my mom with her real estate website which was funnish. Well other than all this, my day wasn't all that eventful. I'm looking forward to this week, should be a blast, I hope ya'll had a great Sunday. Come back tomorrow!

Sensational Saturday!! (Cheesy title?)
Hello friends! I am doing my Saturday blog at 2 o'clock on Sunday morning. This is because I'm such a busy person that I just can't fit blogging into my days! FALSE! The truth is I woke up at 1 because apparently my alarm decided to take a day off! And then I had one more Ochem lecture to watch before starting my Ochem homework which I found out was impossible. The funnest part of my day was my softball game! Kicked butt, but then again theres really no excuse not too. The best part of my day by far was getting to come home and see the Fam! I am really excited to spend this week with my family but there is one bad thing about being home... I'm tempted to eat like crap! At the condo i'm usually on a strict (I use strict very loosely here) diet of egg whites, tuna, chicken, pork chops and usually those little microwavable enchilada things (heaven in your mouth)! But (I know your not suppost to start a sentance with but, but i just did!) when I come home the first thing I am offered is apple pie with ice cream. Chances are I will cave multiple times during the week, it is inevitable. Me and the sisters decided we are going to play icee pong one of the next few nights, kinda like beer pong, just with icee's. All fun with no consequences! One thing that has been taking over my life is making these stupid websites. My computers teacher gave a lecture on how to make money on websites and thanks to you guys, in the past like 2 days I have made almost 40 bucks! Finally school making me some money. If you havent checked out my websites yet go check them out: gaylenbartlett.blogspot.com (your already here) , miworkoutplaylist.blogspot.com , and... wait for it... iheartthetrees.blogspot.com . Okay just to clear things up, I am not a tree hugger or environmentalist or whatever. I actually get very annoyed by the whole green movement stuff. However, I am a business man, and if that stuff is popular and people buy it, then I'm gonna make my share of money off of it! So before you go lookin at it just be sure to know that it was pure comedy for me when I was writing all that stuff. If your for the whole environmentalist, save the Earth "stuff" then more power to ya!
Well i should get going to bed, SUNDAY Tomorrow! ( Tom. is a hard word to spell without T9) I hope you guys all have a glorius Sunday! Be safe...

First Day of Spring Break!
Spring break is finally here! It couldn't have come fast enough. I had a biology exam this morning that I am pretty sure I did horrible on. However, that one is not on me, I'm gonna put it on the teacher. I'm usually not one to make excuses so i'm not going to start now :-)! But I will explain why I say that. I am the kind of student who will go to class even if I know I don't really need to that day. I think skipping class can leed to a habit of missing class and a sense of carelessness. But every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I rush to my biology class at 12:55 for the daily clicker question which the teacher starts at exactly 12:55 and ends at 12:55:30. It is at this point that the teacher begins to lecture. His lecture style consists of talking for 50 minutes strait using words that would be gibirish to the layman and he doesn't even bother to make a power point. Just uses words. Neadless to say, about three minutes into class I am no longer paying a bit of attention to the words coming out of his mouth. It is not possible to just listen to someone talk about biology and take notes for an hour strait. Therefore, I am going to say I was ilprepared for that test! Unfortunately, with my poor performances in both Organic Chemistry and Biology the first half of this semester, I set up a difficult April and May.
Since this coming week is spring break I plan to relax and hardly think about school!
Things to look forward to: Softball Game Saturday Night! Hopefully the Lake more than once (I NEED A TAN!!). Wedding next Sunday (not mine!). Hopefully we can fit in a spontaneous road trip.
Well I hope you all have a great weekend! Time to hit the gym, watch some ochem lectures and hopefully fit in the ASU/ Auburn Baseball game. Go ASU!
Dont forget to check out my other websites on the right hand side of the page, I'll explain those and their purpose in a later blog.
Have an astonishing Friday!
Humbly, Gaylen Bartlett
