I bought my first skateboard yesterday, thinking I’d be bloody and broken after my first hour attempting.
but i wasnt (yay!). turns out, knowing how to snowboard helps a lot more than I thought and I can cruise around kinda okay on the skateboard. I cant do any tricks or stop myself without looking stupid, but that will come with time. (I am just so used to my board being stuck to my feet!) I really want to learn to proficiently ollie and confidently ride on sidewalks (all those cracks are tough!) and perhaps jump curbs by the end of the month. tips?

i just realized i became a member exactly one year ago today (though it is after midnight so it seems like a year and a day).
i am a lot happier. that is for sure. I think I have more direction and confidence now, as well, which helps bring on happiness a lot.
yay!

I’ve had a really good year, I learned a lot about myself and my surroundings. I also learned, though, that distance isnt what really matters. I was just having such a hard time when i happened to be where I was—it wasnt about the actual place.
anyway, I have decided to move back “home” to the city of brotherly love, for no real reason, I just love it, and as much as I love amherst, amherst doesnt have my family or history. I am excited about the coming years changes—i loveee the house that i am going to live in, i am going to have awesome roomies and it will be my senior year of college (assume i finish this semester out…hehe)
really, i think i do have a different life. i see things way more positively, i actually have focus (i didnt know what i wanted to do with myself before) and i am getting more comfortable in my own skin. yayness!
