Travel Ideas?
I have been wanting to go on a trip to Europe or South America. Most likely I would like to go backpacking and spend my nights in a tent. This way I would save money and get to travel farther and see more for a lot cheaper. Problem is I do not know much about camping in either continent. Wondering if you can pretty much camp anywhere that is not very populated or if you need to pay for a campsite, how easy it is to find places to camp, and if you need to be 21 to rent a camp site. I was also thinking that I would blog about my travels. Just wondering how interested people would be in reading about my travels and if anyone has any tips or ideas for me.

Carpool app

This is a link to the new iphone app my friend and I created. It divides the gas price up for each person in the car. It is brand new and very easy to use. Hope you like it!

Review of Dewalt Tool Set
I think it is good for every guy to have at least a small tool set. If you are going to get a tool set, I would suggest Dewalt.

Keeping a strong relationship
My girlfriend and I recently had a depressing day together. We did not really fight but we did not talk almost all day and we both felt that the other was treating us poorly. However, by the end of the night we talked to each other and were able to say goodnight to each other without any hostility. Although we avoided a fight by communicating and working things out I did not feel like we reached closure. I still had feelings of being treated unfair and wanted hr to know why I felt that way. I was not upset with her anymore but I felt like we did not completely understand each others side of the story. I ignored these feelings for an entire day but then finally decided I could not hold in how I felt. I explained to her exactly how I felt at the time of the disagreement and exactly how I felt in the following day. Together we took the time to calmly discuss how we felt. Then, we also explained to each other how to better read each others emotions so that we could avoid future aggravations.
The reason I wanted to share this was because I do not think I have ever felt as happy with my relationship as I do after that talk. I know that everyone always says, "Communication is key in a good relationship", but it really is important. The feeling of connection after having a good talk about your feelings is incomparable. It brings a feeling of connection and commitment. It teaches each of you more about the other and it expresses how willing you are to work at the relationship. So please, if you want a strong and healthy relationship learn to communicate in a calm and loving conversation and never let your feelings stay bottled up.

My review of Inception
This is an amazing movie! It is action packed with a deep storyline. It is even so deep that some of my friends I went to see it with had some trouble following it but they still enjoyed it greatly. I do not want to go into to much detail because it will spoil the movie but the basic idea is that there are these people who use a machine to go into other peoples dreams and still information from them. I know that does not sound deep but when you see the movie I am sure you will agree with me on how deep it is. Trust me you will not be disappointed in this movie.

Review of The Proposel
When my girlfriend made me see The Proposal I was only half willing to see it because I expected it to be a corny chick flick. After seeing it I realized it was much more of a romantic comedy than a chick flick. Yes, there are mushy parts but overall it is a very funny movie. Sandra Bullock was great (and hot) as always and Ryan Reynolds, Betty White, and Mary Steenburgen made a great comedy team. The idea behind the movie is that Margaret Tate (Sandra Bullocks character) is the scary boss of Andrew Paxton (Ryan Reynolds character). When she realizes that her visa is up and that she is going to be deported to Canada she agrees to promote Ryan Reynolds if he pretends to be her husband to be. To prove that they are "really a couple" they must go to Ryan Reynolds family home for his grandmothers birthday (Betty White). From then on out the humor is nonstop.
My Review of Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World
This is a great movie! I saw it in theaters with my girlfriend and we could not stop laughing. It is very original because it like a cross between a teenage comedy, a comic book, and a video game. The story line starts with Scott Pilgrim who starts dating this odd girl and finds out that he must fight her evil ex's if he wants to stay with her. I laughed so much that I actually missed a lot of jokes because I was to busy laughing to hear them. It is a great movie for anyone who likes silly, fun, teen humor.
