about the site...

Thanks for visiting my website! I hope you enjoy your stay and are able to find your way around without any problems.

I created this site as a project, but it turned into a different few things. First off, it is a blog; simply a place where I can write some of my scattered, random thoughts, and occasionally rant a little bit, about how the man is keeping me (and you) down.

Secondly, it has become a place where I have posted some photography, so feel free to check some of that out as well. And lastly, This site will be used as part of a a few different projects for my masters degree. Feel free to email me if you have any questions, comments, concerns during your stay: (benhelms@gmail.com)

about me...

A little about me, let’s see...Well, I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area, then moved to Los Angeles for college and about halfway through that I moved out to Boston. After falling in love with New England (go Pats/Sox!), I made my way back to SoCal and got two degrees from Azusa Pacific University in Los Angeles, CA (a B.A. in English-Writing & an M.S. in College Counseling and Student Development). As of now, I'm working as a Hall Director at the University of Portland in Oregon and living/working in the prestigious Villa Maria Hall.

Besides all that, I love writing, backpacking, photography, music (recording, composing and listening), playing/watching sports, and exploring new lands. View my Resume.


“Hey Everybody…” Summer 2010 Edition

So…Remember StumbleUpon? Cool. Here’s some of the coolest, most interesting, funniest and just plain awesomest things I’ve found via StumbleUpon, Sean, Jason, Meaghan or some other crazy, roundabout way. Enjoy!

The Musik Box – Pogo, an amazing Australian DJ came up with some great remixed movies…sounds confusing, but check out a few of his song/videos here…

Stuff No One Told Me – A simple, yet elegant collection of funny, clever & thought-provoking nostalgia. Check it out…

The Worst Moments of my Childhood - While a bit somber, this list of photos includes some of the most heart-wrenching moments of all our childhoods. Even if you’re over 60 years old, you’ve probably seen most of these movies and been moved to tears in most.

Ray Bradbury - A very interesting CNN article on the man, the myth, the sci-fi legend, Ray Bradbury and his view on ghosts, religion and all that God stuff…

Tag That Photo – A great photography blog by my good friend, Sean Thompson…soon to be “Mr.” Sean Thompson…the guy’s getting married. I think that’s how it works at least…

Upception – A GENIUS mashup between the visuals of the film “Up” and the audio of the new movie “Inception” trailer. Oh. My. Gosh. It’ll blow your mind.

Your Beautiful Eyes - A short, sweet and gorgeous collection of wonderfully-lit closeups of eyeballs. Check it.


Coraline vs. Puppeteer – A short GIF that is very much entertaining.

Top 10 Playoff Performances: Michael Jordan – Just in case you forgot who the best player of all time was…
