DALLAS BECK
We used to go to Del Taco every Tuesday. This picture was taken 3 or 4 years ago
1. How did you and I meet? We met through mutual friends! My roommate Paul, who I didn't know very well, introduced me to his friends Chelsea, Kaela and Janelle, who were Stephanie's roommates, also who she didn't know very well at the time.. I think. Anyways, wa all became instant best friends.

2. How many siblings in your family? I have six siblings! Three boys and three girls

3. What is your favorite color and why? My favorite color is green on most days, but others blue, i think. I think the earth has a great color combo when it's very green outside and a blue blue sky! I like nature, I suppose

4. What is your favorite memory of working at BYU Broadcasting? Walking into the room and seeing Blaine's smiling face, ha ha. If I saw that, I knew it was going to be a great day of work haha.

5. If you could do anything for a living (regardless of money) what would it be? I think I would be a missionary for a living ha. Institute professor would be close.

6. What are your hobbies? ULTIMAAATE frisbee! love it like crazy. Reading books I'm interested in, ha, racquetball, football (watching and/or playing), playing baseball, jet skiing, watching movies, I really like eating, lifting, seeing friends and family.

7. What is your favorite movie? not even a clue. I like so many, but to give an idea, I really like the Lord of the Rings series, Spiderman, and actually I just realized that The Dark Knight is probably the favorite. I just love the joker.

8. What is your favorite vacation spot? Lake Eufala in Oklahoma. It's quiet and the water is warm. We usually go there and stay on a houseboat for about a week. Very relaxing.

9. What is your favorite memory with me? Drawing you a Dragonball Z picture, ha ha. That and our prank war-- especially stealing their Christmas tree and leaving one decoration--the Grinch, ha ha

10. What is the most random thing you have done? Not sure about this one. I once randomly asked out a girl who I had never talked to or heard about before, ha ha

11. What is your favorite sport and why? To play: Not even a question--Ultimate Frisbee. I get a glimpse of what the Celestial Kingdom is like whenever I play. I love making good throws to people downfield. I love catching it on the run. To watch: by far, football. I love the strategy, skill, technique of it all.

12. What do you want to be doing 10 years from now? Ten years from now, I'd like ot have finised grad school and be full-time in a job with a family somewhere in the country, probably east. I like the trees out east. I'd like to be living just outside of a big city with big skyscrapers where I'd like to be working, but not too big where traffic makes it take forever to get back to the family. I'd like to be a good father and husband. I'd like to travel every so often.



Dallas and I first became friends our freshman year of college. And have stayed in touch ever since. We even got to work together. I always have so much fun hanging out with Big D :) And I'm grateful that you are a honest, trustworthy friend that I can count on. I'm seriously so lucky to have such a good friend like you Dallas. Thanks for everything.

Summer 2010

Alright so a lot has happened in the month or so. I saw the beautiful Alaska. I got to go on a cruise with my fam. It was amazing. I love spending time with them and Alaska and Canada are gorgeous.

I have officially finished my classes and internship! Wow I cannont believe I am now officially officially DONE with my undergrad degree. I can't believe how fast the time flies.

I'm staying busy at work but I still love my job.

My great grandma passed away last week. She was 93 and lived a good life.

I also at this time want my friend Catherine to know how much I love her and that my thoughts and prayers are with her and her family, especially her sister at this time.

Please at this time also keep my grandpa in your prayers.

Thank you all for being my friend. You have no idea how much it really means to me.

here are a few of hundreds of pictures from Alaska!

My Life Rocks!


Well it's that time again... yes the time of the month when I need to blog again. Sorry I haven't been very good at it lately. For some reason that thing called life is keeping me busy. If you have any ideas how to make it slow down... let me know.

The biggest event of the last few weeks is my best friend Chelsea is now married! WOW! I'm so happy for her and Bryan. I had the privilege of staying with her and her fam for her wedding. (She got married in Nauvoo) I have posted some pictures, but stay tuned because I'll put up some more later. (Also sorry these are not in a very good order... but oh well).

While in Kansas I also got to see Janelle's mom and dad. I enjoy spending time with them.

Next one of my good friends Ashley came up from Arizona and we got to hang out. We went to the canyon for a few minutes. It was so fun. I think this is the first time I've seen her since she's been married :) Thanks Ash for being such a great friend!

We are going on a Cruise in a week, so chances are that I won't be back into the blogging world until after the cruise... which means I probably won't be back until after finals are overwith in June, But I'd like to give a shoutout to my Grandma Jo and my best friend Donna Horn, who's birthday's are on June 4. :) Happy Birthday!
