AJ's Proposal to Rogeline Video Clip

"FREAKSHOW"
AJ (Dark Pants)
Leia (The Girl)
Jason (Brown Clothes)
Brian (Blue Scrubs)

So you want the NEWS? ok so... this is how it eeezzz.. I hooked up with Rogeline in the Philippines for a month and visited her family in her area in Roxas City which was a pretty small city.. It wasn't even a city .. really.. it was more like a jungle with the ocean nearby. After we visited the family we went to go visit my family in Bicol and we visited my grandma and cousins and aunties and Uncles.. and In that one clip I have here on my site has my grandma in the beginning of that. It was a real fun trip! I got engadged to her on first friday I was there at Wah Wah Dam where the waterfalls were (I have the picture on top here.) She is a sweet girl and I love her so much!! great personalilty! and she's really 4'11"!! she speaks very little english coz she's really shy around people. But knowing how crazy I am, I think she will get rid of the shyness. Right now I am in the process of petitioning her over here in the States through Fiancee Visa. It is quite stressing to do all this paperwork but I know it will be well worth it!

HERE IS ANOTHER LITTLE VIDEO CLIPS OF ME AND ROGIE!

I Bought a new 2006 Toyota Tacoma!! I guess that's great news right? You all are probably thinking.. well.. what about the Philippines.. and your marriage and stuff.. Dont worry.. I got it all takin care of... Just gotta sell a few more drugs and I will be all good to go!! hahaha.. Things are going great for me right now.. I'm preparing to go to the Philippines in 2 months and My ticket and hotel stay is already alined and now I just gotta wait for the days to go by... I really hope that Rogeline is the one for me and everything will work out Great!

THE 1968 COUGAR IS ALMOST UP AND RUNNING!!! MY DAD AND I GOT THE ENGINE BARELY IN AND IT TOOK A LOT OF WEDGING AND PUSHING AND EVEN BENDING TO FIT THOSE HEADERS AND ENGINE INSIDE. IT'S BEEN A LONG 3 YEARS SINCE I HAVEN'T DRIVEN THIS BEAST AND I THINK IT'S ABOUT TIME TO FEED IT SOME RICE ROCKETS AND MUSTANGS ON TOP... SHE LOVES THOSE MEALS!

It's almost about that time where I get excited to see my girl soon in the Philippines.. I got about 4 more months!! I'm so excited that my arm can spin around like in my video clip here! I have to find an airplane ticket (round trip) very VERY soon here... So if anyone has any ideas on how to find a nice round trip plane ticket to the Philippines, that would help a lot! Im gonna be there in June and Then do a big celebration thang there and then do a big reception here when she gets here... Her paperwork might take a long time but if we are together it won't take that long... "hopefully". The government there is pretty JACKED up! ...But I just want to let you all know that I am excited and this is gonna be a fun and BIG Step in the Adventure.

This is THE WAY to start out 2006!! I tell ya!! What wonderful day it was!! it ended with a BANG! First off.. me and my buddy Brian and my sister Leia decided to go to The San Diego Temple and then spend the rest of the time at SeaWorld since it was a nice sunny day... so We got ready and took off... It was a very long drive but we managed to make it alive even with Brian's crazy driving. When we got to the Temple.. It was CLOSED! so it was a bummer but we got to take awesome pictures of it.. I think this is THE best temple here! I mean check out the pictures!... And After messing around there for a little while we shot over to seaworld which was right down the street and had ourselves a Good ol' time!
SeaWorld is a great place!! too bad we didn't get to see everything!! but the ticket is good for the rest of this year!! so we are gonna go back for some more Shamu! After a long day and after grubbing down some carne asada french fries we went straight home and I just found out that my father just cut his HAIR short! I couldn't believe my eyes!! I had to rub them again to see better.. but his Long hair wasn't there anymore and its been more than 15 years since he cut it or even had it that short!! people at church tomarrow is gonna freak! i think even my grandma is gonna go crazy! I think something is up.. but I will only know tomarrow.... But what a glorious day to come home to my dad who is not only changing but is going through something that I don't even know yet.. and he WONT TELL ME! here is a before picture and an after picture of his hair... (I don't believe what he told me about his hair getting burnt from an messed up Carborator that spat up fire when mom started the engine..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK LUKE!! (And your parents could cook some GREAT food!! sarap!)

ANOTHER DIRTBIKE TRIP WITH THE FAMILY BUT... ON THE DAY THAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO LEAVE TO THE DESERT I HURT MY BACK AT WORK AND GOT PUT ON LIGHT DUTY AND ACCORDING TO MY DOCTOR I COULDN'T LIFT,PULL,PUSH,BEND OR STOOP... SO THEY PUT ME ON MEDICATION FOR MY BACK MUSCLE PAIN AND GAVE ME A X-RAY AND IT LOOKED GOOD AND THEY GAVE ME A BELT TO SUPPORT MY BACK AND THEY DID ALL THESE THINGS THAT MIGHT KEEP ME FROM DIRTBIKING... BUT DID IT STOP ME??



NOPE... IT DIDN'T STOP ME FROM DIRTBIKING.. I WENT STRAIGHT OUT AFTER WORK TO THE DESERT AND DRANK A FEW BEERS (ROOT BEERS) TO TAKE THAT PAIN AWAY AND POPPED A FEW MEDICATION PILLS AND I WAS GOOD TO GO!



but dang it sure hurt at the end of the day..



BUT IT WAS WELL WORTH IT AND IT WAS A FUN THANKSGIVING DIRTBIKE TRIP WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY...

Look at Brian and his Girlfriend.. Nice Birthday present dude! haha! -Brian's Birthday-

Jundell's Birthday party and hanging out with the "mga gwapo" (handsome men) and talking about filipino stuff. The Food was great and I once again ate my favorite dish Dinuguan (pork blood and meat) and I got really full of great filipino food! Happy Birthday JD!Jundell,Mark,AJ,Angelo -The Old Transporter days- 2003

They Have Milo here!!! I drank this beverage like almost everyday while I was in the Philippines! It's a Hot or Cold chocolate energy drink. It's kind of like Hot Chocolate but it has a lighter taste to it...Try putting some of the powdered version of it into vanilla ice cream and stir it up and make a shake out of it.. It's great stuff!!!

Spending time with Good ol Grandma was a blast! We did a Road trip with the family to Palmdale and spent a night at my Grandma's house (and boy did I get a good 12 hours rest!.. The Bed was awesome and nothing like my cardboard box bed..) My Grandma and Aunt and Uncle are moving to Utah (who would do such a Thing!?) and so My dad had to repair a lot of things and I got to see his original plummer's Crack.. And I tried on Grandma's glasses and Boy were they powerful little suckers! I think I went blind for a few seconds after wearing them for the photo here...




awww.. AJ, Grandma and Lele...



It was time to go home and I was all sattled up READY TO GO...
(I should just sleep in the back of my truck for now on huh? it's long enough..
just put those cardboards up for a cover on the bed of my truck and
there ya have it!)

Having just celebrated my 25th wedding anniversary, a whirlwind of an event orchastrated by my two loving kids, I find myself in a somewhat numbing state of denial. Inside my torn and twisted old frame, a self inflicted condition resulting from years of racing and crashing dirt bikes and muscle cars, lives the heart and mind of a much youger man. I wonder how it is possible for the years to have flown by so quickly. It truely seems only yesterday I was single, independant, care-free and totally selfish. My world circled entirely around one thing...ME! Marriage and having children changed all that forever...and is probably the single biggest contributing reason to the fact that I am still alive.

Now, my friends, of course, feel obligated to ask the same old cliqued question,"how do you do it? How can you stay so happily married that long?" My sarcastic reply, "easy...I crash big at least once every few years and smack my head hard enough to forget everything! It is like starting over all the time! Right now, I think I've only been married 18 months!" The truth....I am one undeservedly spoiled brat. I have a wife who once held 13 national beauty titles in the Philippines and modeled for Kodak, Halmark and Pepsi. She is not only my constant companion, she is my best friend. Best. We have two incredible kids who bless our lives and have never given us an ounce of trouble (though I must admit I am a little disappointed in my son who STILL fails in his attempts to beat me on a dirt bike......but then, he's on a Honda, so I don't expect much!!) A prophet of God once said, "no other success can compensate for failure in the home" and my soul believed those words like none other. When chaos prevails and the world becomes a horrid place to exist, going home to my family shuts close the gates and shores up security to my soul. If I could offer up any words of profound wisdom to spawn the world forward into true marital bliss, I would have to proclaim a simple message "don't get married to ANYONE......unless they are your absolute best friend." I gotta run now, I gotta go bop my kids upside the head just in case they were THINKING about doing something naughty. Now THAT is real parenting skills right there! May God bless you and yours and bring our soldiers home safe to their families. Peace, -Corky Clevenger- {Father}

The Drive was way nice down the Pacific Coast Highway today past the Mountain Fire and past the Fine beach of Malibu... Then It got way super hot in L.A. at the Santa monica Boulevard and The Elders and I made it ALIVE to the L.A. Temple! We did a session inside and the last time I came here was right before my mission to the Philippines! Today is my only day off of work for the next 8 days straight!!! It was a perfect time to go to the temple! I am quite the busy guy these days.. ward mission leader, Schooling and WORK! (and yet I still manage to have time to make this Blog) : 0

WAKEBOARDING -Lake Piru, California-
My good buddy Brian Wager did pretty good and even stood right up out of the water.. but he still needs PRACTICE! but me in the other hand need a coffin! hahaha.. I almost drowned out there in the lake because my swimming skills are not too .... "skilled" but I still tried wakeboarding and stood up and went face first into the water and kept holding on the the line and skipped over the water like a caught fish and finally let go... Quite the adventure it was! But we did end up going inner-tubing and that was fun!! Brian and I held on the longest and my arms are just killing me right now because we had to hold on real tight or else been thrown off the tube into the fast water... The Sun didn't really come out so I couldn't turn brown so I am still the same white person.. Bishop Stout's boat was excellent and we hope to come out again!
