2 Days
So I have two days left, and Saturday will be my last post. So I guess that I should get all I want in with this one and the next.
I am happy that I am going on a mission. I get to get away from all of this stupid drama and lose myself in the work. Though, the hardest part for me right now will be to not give hugs. I LOVE HUGS!!!! And I have heard ever since my freshman year of high school, that I give really good hugs. I don't know how I do it, I guess I just do. I have my thoughts on why people like my hugs, so what the heck I will tell you. My thought is that my hugs are genuine. I just don't through hugs, I give hugs. The way I hug is I put my arms around the girl and hold them tight to me. Maybe a little squeeze. But I want to say the words, I love you, through my hugs. I hope that is what they get when they get my hugs. But some people are just awkward to hug. So how am I supposed to hug them if they really don't want the hug to begin with. The answer is to make the hug just as awkward back!!!! No, but that is what I would want to say. I am going to miss a whole lot of people here in Colorado. Especially YOU, yes you, the person reading right now. I will miss you. But most of my friends right now, are actually really older then I. So, when I get back, they will be in a new part of their life probably, and then they will have no time for me. Well, I guess that is what life is all about. Leaving what you love to do something that is right. Not only is it right, but I have been commanded to. Which makes it even more right.
There is a song that I guess all of this reminds me of. I don't know how to show everyone, because it was my brother's band and it just isn't online anywhere. It is called, end of the year. And I just love the song so much. I might just have to listen to it and write down the lyrics for you all. But the lyrics are only half of it, you need to hear the song too. It is on my i-tunes. So if you know how to put a song there HERE, please tell me how.
So yea, there is one part that I love that has always kind of cheered me up. And that part goes, "I may not have a girl, but soon I might. And if I did I would squeeze her tight."
So really, if you know how to get a song on here please tell me. Ummm... So far I guess that I all I have to say for today. Till tomorrow. Then Off to the mission.

Nothing but Sunshine!!!!
So, today and yesterday have been really good for me. I don't know all of the reasons why, BUT I sure do know some of the reasons why.
Yesterday, I went to the temple with my brother. First time there not going through for me. And I could swear that I could see myself going through the temple again but with my wife. Now I didn't see a face or anything, but it gives me so much hope for the future you know. My brother being here too, really has been fun, no matter how much he bugs me, I love him to death. And also, late last night, I found out that this really cute girl likes/liked me. TOO COOL. kind of stinks that I find that out NOW, but it is always nice to know that I am liked.
And today I worked on my room for a while and I may say that it is coming together quite well. And tonight I went to a movie with my good friends, I was sitting in between two of them, if you know what I am talking about. (wink wink) Ha ha ha ha ha ha. And I had a blast. Movie was pretty good, but it needs a more original story line then: Guy no one likes, does something that seems wrong to everyone else, he turns out to be right, everyone loves him. I have seen too many of those movies. But that would have been the only thing that I would have changed in the movie, otherwise, How to train your dragon was worth the money. (I got in for free, perks of friends) But over all, this post is all about sunshine and smiles.
The next two years are going to be quite the roller coaster. But John Reimann can take on the world right now, knowing that he IS good enough for someone. Well, everyone, I have no more phone anymore. For the next two days it will be facebook, and after that, letters. Hope you all can write well!!!! Love you all!!!!

Thinking...
SO I have been thinking. Yes I know, "Me? Thinking?" It happens. I am caught between a rock and a hard place right now. And it is all about this stupid blog that I have started. I am scared to show my blog to all of my friends and let them know about me, and more of my ins and outs, but I would love to get some comments about what I write about. Cause the thing is, I LOVE TO KNOW PEOPLE'S OPINIONS ABOUT ME!!!!!!!! Weird, but true. I love to know what they love about me and I almost love to know what they hate about me a little more.
I guess the thought process behind that is I want to get to know myself better through other people's eyes. What bothers them about me, what I do that they really admire, or what do I do that I can do better. That is right I had THREE dos in that last statement. (Smile)
So I guess what I am saying is... If you want to leave a comment, I ask you to do so. And if you want to, tell other people about my blog, cause I sure know that I won't. Ha ha ha ha ha.
So, I still haven't done a whole lot on my talk yet, but I have made some good progress with my room. I am getting there. But I have only a few more days before I really have to be done. THE PRESSURE!!!!! Oh well. Well I hope that all is good with all that read this. Have a nice next two years, and even after my mission, I don't know if I will keep this dumb blog thing up. So, maybe a few more posts then off I go, into the wild blue yonder, flying high into the sun... Yep... OK... It just got a little bit awkward. Till next time.

I'm Leaving On A Jet Plane
Well, no I am not leaving on a jet plane, well just not yet at least. But I have less then ONE week left here in Colorado. AND I HAVEN'T DONE A WHOLE LOT TO PREPARE YET!!!!!!!! I have this 15 minute talk to give and I still need to write it, but the good news is is that I have all the material to write it. So, I think I will be alright there, but I have a whole room to box up and I am not even half way through it. Dang.
So, saying goodbye to my friends has been an interesting thing. Some people are truly going to miss me, and then others I can just tell aren't. But it is okay I guess. There is just so much stuff going on that I don't know where to put my thoughts. They are just going every which way. Some times I just wonder where I will be in people's thoughts for the next two years. Will there be people actually thinking about me? Will I truly be missed? I don't know. I don't know how someone can like me so much without really knowing me. I guess they know things about me.
So, I guess that brings me to my next subject. ME!!!! That is what this whole blog thing is really about. Me.
So, for the many many many people who read this, that is right I am talking to you one person, I would call myself a romantic person. But the thing is, I am only really romantic in my head. I think of ways that I could romance my future lady friend. I think of all the ways I could make her smile and love me. For example. I would take her to a quiet dinner, just her and me, with the candles on the table. We would eat, talk, laugh and eat some more. Afterward we would hear some music in the background, I would ask her to dance. While we are dancing I would be singing softly into her ear as we sway side to side. After the dance, we would go to a park. That is right, a park. She would be on the swing, with me behind pushing her gently. We would talk and laugh. Afterward I would take her home give her a sweet soft kiss and say goodbye. Now if that doesn't get me any brownie points, I don't know what will. But the thing is, I have to be a lot more assured of myself then I am to do a thing like that. Girls when I get to really liking them, I can't think, and I make mistakes and make a total fool of myself. DUMB GIRLS GET ME FEELING LIKE A TOTAL FOOL!!!!!!
But I guess that I don't have to worry about girls for the next two years. Which reminds me. When I was little, I always dreamed that I would be some girl's missionary. Go on my mission, and then I know I would at least get a letter, and maybe a true dear john. That dream will never come true. I have less then one week to get a girlfriend to make that dream a reality. Ain't going to happen. Oh well, it is the way it was supposed to be I guess.
The thing is, I have always liked girls, even when I was in kindergarten. I liked girls. And I still do. So all of you ladies reading this, I'M SINGLE!!! (if you can wait two years)
But I guess the real reason that I started this one blog today is to say how really scared I am. I am not, I guess, scared for the mission, but scared to come back. Where will I be, and all of my friends be? Where will I go for school? Work? Will there actually be a girl out there for me? WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?!?!?!?!?!? I don't know. But that is two years away, I shouldn't worry about it.
CALIFORNIA, HERE I COME!!!!!!!!!!

Thoughts, again....
So I just got home from a party all for me. I just loved it. I haven't had that many people celebrate something for me like that since I had birthday parties and invited all my friends when I was little. So I got a ton of ties. I love pretty much all of them, but there are a few that I probably won't be able to wear. SORRY!! So I have decided that most of my posts are real downers, that I would..... can you guess? That is right, keep up with what I have been doing and don't change. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
So, there is this one girl that was there, and I really don't think that she was there for me. One, because I really don't think she likes me. Two, because it seemed as though she needed to work a few things out with someone. This girl I offended a little while ago. I didn't mean to do anything of the kind. I was just hoping that I could peek a little more into her life to see what really made her tick. She got so mad at me, that I don't think that she has totally forgiven me yet. I mean I used to be in this elite group that she wouldn't mind "touching", and now she can hardly even look at me without giving me a look. It kind of hurts you know. I mean, I didn't mean to hurt her at all, not even in the least bit. I would say why I think she took offense to it, but I won't because I really think she is a pretty fun person to be around and I truly love her friendship.
So, I have been hanging around a lot of girls for the past few months, and I have been listening in on their "girl talk." I have been doing it for a few reasons. One, they let me listen. Two, to remind myself why dating is just not going to be for me for a LONG TIME!!!!!! They talk about other guys, while they know that I am there, which really lowers my self esteem. I mean, if you heard someone talk about this good looking person that is a good friend of yours, the first thing that pops into my head is, "So what does that make me?" I guess a whole lot of nothing. Thanks guys, love you too. When I talk to my guy friends, yea we talk about girls, I mean come on. But we usually don't talk about how they look. We usually talk about their personalities and how fun they are. I don't know about other people, but looks aren't everything. Cause when you get to know someone who is ok looking but has a bomb personality, they actually get a lot cuter. Now don't get me wrong, looks are quite the bonus, but they just aren't EVERYTHING. I know that I am not the most well built guy, or has the best body or facial features. But do you know what? I love who I am and if you don't like this, then you are not worth my time.
Yea, so I have found that talking or I guess writing this blog has made things so much easier for me to let things go and just go my own way with my own path. Girls just aren't worth the time and effort right now. And probably not for a long time. Thanks for staying with me all that read this, that is right I am talking to YOU!!! I have a few more things that I could wright, but yea, I might just wait till after my mission. You would have to wait TWO YEARS!!!! THE SUSPENSE!!!!

Superman
So my friend posted a Superman related thing on her blog and honestly it really touched me. She said that she was waiting for her Superman. Which really got me thinking, "Will I become someone's Superman?" I guess that is another reason that I just love Superman. He is one of the most caring Superheroes there are. I would even probably go as far as to say, he is the most Christlike superheroes there are. Another reason I love him. He is just so caring. He wants to be everywhere to help everyone. He is not one to give up when the going gets to hard. He stands up for what he believes and won't take any crap from no one.
So I guess the real point of me liking Superman is because, I want to be a super man. I want to be able to be there for a lady and give her all that she needs and more. I want to lift her up when it gets a little foggy and show her the sunlight that has always been in her life. To give her the love that she deserves. But my fear is that I am just going to become this regular guy that can't be anything more then just a regular joe. I want to be a Superman is someone's eyes. I guess the only thing I can do is be the best me I can be and hope that someone will be able to see a super man.
