Like Kids In A Candy Store

So this year I celebrated my 25th birthday! For the first time in my life I felt old, the first time ever I felt like my dad always said about me! And i don't like it, I miss being a kid. And even though 25 really isn't that old and i am still in the prime of my youth, I still like from time to time like to go back in time... And today was the best day that i have had in years.

When i was a wee lad me and my family lived over in Orem over on center street. One of my favorite placed to go when i was a toddler was a place called Chuck-e-Cheese! And i had not been there since i was 8 or 9.

This is the last week before I leave for Boston, I have been saying goodbye and hanging out with a few of my close friends. Today I hung out with my good friend Megan, and we visited that place that I used to love as a kid. Chuck-e-Cheese!

Today was the best day of my life, from the time we walked in there was a special magical feeling in the air. The music, sounds, smell... Everything about the place reminded me of my time as a young kid! As we sat down to enjoy our pepperoni and olive pizza, we watched the show of chuck himself and his friends sing to us. Then we went to play some games, and ride some rides. With $10 in tokens we had hours of fun. Ski Ball, Shooter, Basketball... and much much more! Every ticket that we won we donated to the cutest kid in the room at the time. Each time the kid would smile and get all excited like we gave them gold!

Then the last thing we did before we left was have chuck-e-cheese sketch a photo of the great time we had! It took a few takes but we finally got Megan to not laugh and hold the pose!

I would have to say that this was by far the best experience i have had in a long time. Some people may mock me, say that it is not fun, but those people are stupid! Even though maybe most the games were not made for people over the age of.... 10! It was fun to just go out and do something different!

Dating Goes Online Pt 2

Ok so reciently i posted about how the world was changing.  How when i was a kid we didnt have internet or text message, or IM.. Heck we didnt even have a computer.  But with the recent technology changes everythign is going online from finding new friends, to finding a wife!  If you did not read it you can check it out HERE

With the sudden change i figured instead of being like my old man and make fun of kids these days i would become one and join them...  So i did it, no i am not engaged, I went online to find a date.  Was i going seriously?  Absolutly not! But i had fun in the mean time.   I found a few places that i would like to introduce as a motive of findind that special someone out there, or a new person to just hang out with.

1)  SpeedDate.com - I stumbled upon this as a application on facebook but aparently you do not need to have facebook to use,  you can just go directly to the website!   Basicly what SpeedDate is just regular speed dating but all online.  When you log in the system will find a person near you that you can chit chat with.  It pulls the person up. You have 3 min to talk to the person they match you with.  At the end of the 3 min you have to say if you liked the person or not.  If you both click yes then you are SpeedDate buddies that you can talk to at any time you are online.  I want to give you a short example of what a conversation consists of.

She rated me a 9

This is kait, she is 18 and goes to college, she is studying fashion journalism and photography... she's not here for dating just looking to hang out.. if youre twice my age or only interested in getting in her pants, dont bother. she doesnt really know what else to write.. she is fun and laid back and she wants to meet interesting people..

So that is it!  My overall success was pretty good!  I have learned alot of things I think the 1 thing you would have to remember when picking up online is...

1) Have fun!!!!   

Thats it!  I dont have any dates from it, nor do i think i will try.  (you never know though)  But i did have fun while i was doing it!!
