So here I am again. My favorite song now is "All My Loving" by the Beatles.

So as of today I am officially 6 foot 6 inches. Yeah that was a little unexpected and I exceeded the height chart they had at the doctors. I had 1 hepatitus A shot, 1 Tetnus addidtive shot, and they dd blood work so my arms hurt. I did my Beatles presentation project at school today and got a 96. thats ok, but i got to give my props to Kelly for her wig project. So I was thinking about the other day in English Class. I was drawing like I normally do when I have nothing to do and there was this girl that sits in front of me named Tyler Gail who was our class president this year. Well I admired her integrity and her politically conservative demeanor and I felt kind of guilty about saying that earlier I would love to move to Alaska if Palin wasnt Govenor there. So I decided to draw her and a cartoon picture of her expiramenting on a new technique I was practicing. So I finished it in 45 min. and I showed it to her. It was a wonderfull composition, probably the best i had ever done in that style and she looked at it and laughed at it. I went to an art club and showed them the picture and they were all admiring the work I had done and said whoever i drew it for should be ecstatic over a wonderfull piece of art. it felt really bad. Dont you hate it when you do something that comes deep form the heart for someone you care about and they mock it and rub it in your face? i do. I got a Chemistry exam tommorow. Bye.

My Friends

My favorite song is The Unforgiven by Metallica for this week

So was thinking the this morning about my yearbook i bought earlier in the year and just received on monday. I flipped through the book recollecting old yet recent memories. I wondered about my friends; my REAL friends. not just the people wanting something from me or is in a friendship for the rewards. So this is a list of all the people who I believe are my real friends and why. (not in any order of preference or favoritism)

Kelly Henrikson- she always supports me with constructive criticism even when i dont want any and listens to the crap I continually expel from my lips.

Bia Maltby- He may be short but he is a fierce fighter for God and I consider him my peer.

Grant Matthews- If i ever had a problem and was very emotional I would call him and not be afraid to sheda tear. I cant believe we arent related!

Derek Matthews- He is the other part of Grant, and the exact opposite. He is hyper and very social and is a great person to chillax with. Hammer Time!!!

Stella- Although I have a personal thing for asians, I think we have a tight bond a sophomore and a freshman. She is an amazing artist and I look forward seeing her everyday. I cry at the fact I wont see her at all this summer or next year. I love being around her.

Ryan Peachy- He is my man. My homeboy-not-from-the-hood. We are tight.

Kevin Cave- He may go to Page (for those of you who live under a rock, Page and Grimsley are arch-rivals), but he is the man at basketball

Push/ Pdeb- He was there for me when I first started highschool and this year he is a senior and I will miss him so much. I can only hope to repay him by driving his brother to school next year as a Junior.

Ben Tan- I was his camp counselor during summer vacation and he is the man who always hit his head on the cieling when I called his name. Not because hes tall, but because he slept on the top bunk in a low drop room.

Nikhil Umesh- Even I constantly tell him I'm going to kick his ass, I secretly envy him and he has set a goal for what I wish to acheive acedemically. He has helped my study for tests at the last minute and expected nothing in return except for what to look for on the test after I take it.

Stephanie- She taught me how to draw anime. sort of.

Steph- She deserves a huge shout out. She got me into Model UN and reminds me and ecourages my enthusaism for my country. Denmark!

The list may grow but those are the overall people who come to mind and I hope if you saw your name on here, that you would comment on it. PLEASE. Or at least tell me you liked it

Mr. Underdemeciated (a.k.a Mr. Underappreciated)

Hello. My name is Mr. Underdemeciated. If you dont understandwhat that means then here is the explanation. In the movie Bedtime Stories, Uncle Skeeter tells his neice and nephew stories that come to life. The first story he tells is about himself and calls himself Mr Underappreciated and his nephew couldnt pronounce the word appreciated and called him Underdemeciated. So he changes is name to Sir Fix-a-lot.

I am Mr Underdemeciated because I work hard for little or no payoff, do it without complaint in hopes of the best, and try to do it with a cheerfull attitude.

Working hard is the first part of being Mr Underdemeciated. That means that You work to the best of your ability doing usually mind-numbing tasks for little to no payoff. For example, I regularly work for Mosaic church setting up chairs for the congregation and doing odd jobs around the place such as setting up the slide screen, ushering, teardown, and pretty much that kind of stuff. I only recall 2 people ever thanking me, EVER. That is a wonderfull man named Mr. Maltby, who regularly thanks me, and Mr. Kim who occasionally thanks me. And for that I gratefully thanks them. And by doing hard work I am often given more tasks to complete becasue I am trusted to do what I do. Or as Wolverine puts it "My names Logan, and I am the best at doing what I do."

Not complaining is another major role. By not complaining you are a pleasant person to be around and by not complaining people can trust you do do other things without making a big mess of things. If I were to complain, people would probably not ask me to do stuff anymore or some people would make me work harder and try to knock out the complaining. And by hoping for the best, it makes the work much easier. For example, set up chairs silently and hope by doing so I would be noticed and moved on to a more gratifying task such as playing a tiny part on bass in the worship band. I am also trying to start up a band of my own; looking for patrons!

By completing tasks with a cheerfull attitude, you are more likely to gain attention and be moved up if needed. Although it doesnt help if your father finds all your faults and no one ever notices.
Its nice to be noticed and its pleasing to be recognized for all your hard work, but just keep in mind that if your not a mr. underdemeciated, than you are no help to a cause, for its the underappreciated who keep things running and if all underappreciatted left, than everything would fall to ruin. So. Are a Mr. Underdemeciated?

"All You Need is Love"

Hey there. This is the first installment of the Ivan Siler Blog and please dont laugh at it.





So. I am a regular Beatles listener and often find myself in the positions the songs are based on.


My top 5 songs (not in any order) are Blackbird, Help!, All you need is love, Helter Skelter, and Magical Mystery Tour. I like them but my top 5 are constantly changing.

I was wondering the other day if that was really true. "All you need is love" I mean that if all you need is love than nothing else matters. Does a job matter? A home? Family?

Here is a first hand experience. In February, I had a special someone, who's name wont be revealed, who I wanted to ask out, but unfortunatly I had my little friend called inferiority complex try to change my mind. So I decided on writing her a poem after a failed one-on-five confrontation. All I can say is that it didn't end well. Now if all I needed was love, then I would of won the girl got married and everything would be fine and dandy, but it didn't. Not to say that the "all you need is love" theory is incorrect but it works under certain circumstances.

Now if Person A likes Person B but B doesnt have any love for the person than it is doomed to fail and the "AYNIL" theory is proven wrong. However, If B likes Person C and C can return the love in a equal or higher quantity than the relationship will work.

G+B=N
G= geek
B= beauty
N= Not conceivable

B+H= "AYNIL"
B= beauty
H= handsome
