Good Ol' Nick
In response to his ongoing demands for me to mention him in my blog, I have decided to devote an entire entry to my good friend Nick Smith. To ensure that I don't get off topic or start rambling about anyone or anything else, I have decided to ensure that Nick is the only proper noun I use in writing this entry—that way, I'll have no choice but to sing his praises and give him the credit he deserves.

Everybody loves Nick...

... but I think the general consensus would be that everyone loves Nick's girlfriend more. Mind you, I know at least two people at Nick's church who don't like Nick's girlfriend, but who's counting, anyways? I've been close friends with Nick's girlfriend for a year and a half or so now, and she's definitely one of the people I admire most. Supposedly, Nick's girlfriend's married older sister was trying to hook Nick's girlfriend up with me at one point, because according to this sister, "[I]'ll be rich". I must say though, that I find far more amusement watching Nick's girlfriend's relationships from the sidelines instead of being involved directly.

Nick's girlfriend has to be one of the most amusing people on the planet. It doesn't matter what I'm doing or where I am, when Nick's girlfriend is around, I'm almost always amused (there are exceptions, but they're few and far between). Some of the most amusing memories I have of Nick's girlfriend are the times I spent helping her with her lab-science-that-deals-with-chemicals (that was a close one...) homework last year. Instead of doing the more reasonable thing and doing her homework as it was assigned, Nick's girlfriend typically put all of her homework off until the night before the test, when it was all due. When test day was imminent, Nick's girlfriend would call me up and ask when she could come over. I'd prepare the M&M's, and gear up for 3+ hours of studying and homeworking with Nick's girlfriend. It was great fun.

Speaking of Nick's girlfriend, she starts her new job today, as far as I know... I hope she enjoys it.

Nick is freaking hilarious

Nick's church's youth group's worship leader, on the other hand, is getting on my nerves. Surprisingly, Nick's church's youth group's audio/visual team is getting along quite well—Nick's church's youth group's band, however, is in shambles, at least in my opinion. The leadership, most notably Nick's church's youth group's paid worship leader and Nick's church's youth group's lead guitar player, are not setting anything near a decent example, and their leadership has been sporadic and quite inconsistent the past month or so, to say the very least. While I have my own opinions about this, I'm trying to keep them to myself, and I keep meaning to talk to Nick's church's youth pastor about how I feel, but have yet to find the time to bring it up.

On that note, Nick's church's youth group's audio/visual team is planning to take a camping trip later this month, to get away from things and as an excuse not to have to do sound one week. I'm excited about it, as are Nick's church's youth group's audio visual team's married staff member and Nick's church's youth group's audio visual team's only junior high member. Should be fun, says I.

Nick is a true friend

And so is Nick's equal-aged coffee-making friend who now attends Nick's youth group and works at Nick's girlfriend's previous source of income. Intriguing, eh? No, I've grown much closer to this girl, and she's awesome, to say the very least. Not someone I'd date, but that's okay, because she's a great friend nonetheless. She makes good coffee too, which is always a plus =).

Nick in a nutshell

So, there you have it folks... I think I've said pretty much everything there is to say about Nick. Doesn't he seem like an amazing guy? I think so. Whether you're one of Nick's close friends, or just Nick's youth group's audio visual team's only junior high member's mentor who happens to (humbly) sing Nick's praises in his blog (a.k.a. me), there's no denying that Nick's a fabulous guy.

Okay then... who's next?

=P.
