Yeeeeeeellow

I couldnt possibly do a post about Joey without doing one for Blaine as well.
This is Blaine Taylor. He's a badass. Pardon my language but its the truth.
I met Blaine the same night I met Joey. It was an instant friendship, probably because he had cool stuff, like a neat jeep and cool clothes, just things like that. I know, Im sooo materialistic. But really, we went around in his jeep the first night, jamming out to Jay Sean no doubt. I instantly liked these guys. So fun and freshly graduated, whats not to like?
I quickly noticed a couple things about Blaine.
- He likes good music.
- He sings like Jay Sean.
- Per.Fect. Skin.
-He's ripped.
-He says funny things like "coons age".
Not only did he wrestle in high school, Blaine was also a star institute basketball player. One time at a game this kid got his finger dislocated. It was nasty. Blaine came over and popped it right back into place. It aint no thang to people like him I guess. Another little diddy about him, Blaine never calls anyone by their real name. Bryndee is Brenda, and I know I said it was Joey that made up Jackie's nickname but truth be told it was Blaine. Mehoph was definitely all Blaine.

(Blaine ridin dirty like usual)
His Birthday was was early in the semester. Me and Jackie decided to take it upon ourselves to throw him a little kickback. It blew. Sorry about that Blaine. I guess it wasnt to bad in the end, he came out of it with an awesome gift. The ole' Robin Hood Pack, better safe than sorry right?? Probably my all time favorite thing about Blaine though is that he never misses a chance to make you feel dumb. One time Missy said Little Wayne, to this day its still "hey you wanna listen to some little wayne". I still laugh every time I think about it. He's quick and witty and probably one of the funniest people I know.Going back to the first night we hung out Blaine told us he was a recent convert. He got baptized the summer after his senior year. Automatically the first thing we asked was if he was wild in high school. His response, no. I think he was slightly offended. He struck me as the type that would reek havoc on the children of Thatcher, but it wasnt so. The more I came to know him the more impressed I was at his decision of joining our church. And I was even more impressed when I found out he turned in his mission papers. Blaine got his call and will be serving in the Portland, Oregon mission and is set to leave the same day as his bf, September 1, 2010. Blaine has so much to offer the people of Oregon and I know him and his family will be blessed immensely! He's going to be such an awesome missionary and I cant wait to hear about his trials and blessings out in the field.
