Weddings

WARNING: The following post is not for you if you don't like sappy stuff

Weddings are such a happy day in the lives of two people in love as they bond together for (hopefully) the rest of their lives.  It's a family gathering, and in some cases friends are also involved.  The wedding party will get all decked out in the same snazzy attire to stand next to the newlyweds.  It's always a very beautiful day.

Being a DJ, I've been present at a lot of wedding receptions and occasionly ceremonies over the past year and a half.  Of course my main purpose is to provide music for the wedding dance and rally the crowd over the microphone, which is something I love doing, especially when there's a good sized crowd out on the floor.

The other thing about wedding receptions is that sometimes it makes me think ahead to the future, and my own wedding, which for all we know may not even happen, but the LORD will show me in due time if that's his plan for me. I'm not quite sure what my own wedding will be like (nobody is), but I have lots of ideas. I've seen multiple ways of doing the bouqet toss and garter toss, the dollar dance, and the grand march. There's also lots of other little aestheticts I like to notice like location, decoration, and of course, food! 

Now of course, the bride would plan most of this stuff anyways, but believe it or not I would really want to help even though I don't know how much help I would be.

It's very early to be thinking about these things, but when you're a DJ, sometimes you just can't help it. For those of you who did read this, thanks for sticking through it.

Here's what you do in your college public speaking class.  These videos are me when I gave the speeches.  We were asked to pick a community issue, from which I chose the EBT Program and how it needs reform, and then I later collaborated with Andrew Olfelt to give a speech on education reform here in America.  I hope you enjoy the speeches :) Speech of Introduction - Given 9/9/2016 Informative Speech - Given 10/7/2016 Team Persuasive Speech - Given 11/18/2016

A Post About Snow

Image
Snow is something many of us seem to be bi-polar about, myself included.  We love it when the first snowfall of the year graces it's way through our area, but by March we're sick of it and ready for Spring.  It coats the roads, causes car accidents, and sends people to supermarkets in droves, because everyone's worried that this will be the last time they ever make it out of their house for the next few days, which never really seems to be the case thankfully. Regardless of that though, lots of us love a good snow.  Think of the things we have to be thankful for when the snow flies.  We are now able to go (if there's enough snow), sledding, skiing, have snowball fights, and build snowmen. There are tons of things to do when that first winter storm hits, and we should enjoy it while we can.  I've been regretting not being able to take part in Winter activities these past few years due to my numerous prior commitments, but maybe this will be the year

TikTok: Why.... Just Why?

Image
It's a day off and I'm sitting at home scrolling through the Snapchat stories of my friends and co-workers.  I'm just leaving one person's story and moving onto the next, but first I have to watch an advertisement, because Snapchat needs to make money somehow doesn't it? I look at the screen, and for some reason a teenaged dude is just chilling there in a white suit and clown makeup lip syncing to some song I've never heard of before.  The screen is split though, so you know someone else must be coming to join him, right?  Well low and behold not even five seconds later another teenager in a black suit with his hair groomed to resemble a sheep and blue/black skin steps in and starts lip syncing to another part of the song where a different person seems to sing.  The ad cuts out not long after that, and I'm back with my Snapchat stories. If you haven't guessed already, the ad is for smartphone app TikTok , which allows it's users to video rec
