One of the few days where I woke to my early alarm, only because I really want to learn how to surf. I sat in the car half asleep on the way to Malibu. It kind of bums me out how I feel like I take the ocean for granted sometimes, like how I live at the beach but hardly go. Thats going to change though. We stopped by McDonalds, where I got oatmeal and pancakes for breakfast. My mom made a fus...

It was a warm sunny day, like it usually is in LA. I went to Malibu to go surfing, and I sucked. I know I’m not as bad as I think but I have high expectations, probably too high for my own good. I’m really competitive I try not to be so much but it seems to just happen. I have no perception in where I should be for surfing, like I’ve seen some surfing mags and I subconsciously...

Wednesday at the Combi with the Masters is always fun. I probably have some of the best sessions with all of them. I think it’s awesome that there’s a generation of skaters over fifty, even though most of the wednesday night crew is in their fortys, but in the history of skating there really hasn’t been that. I think its so cool that theyre still learning tricks and some of them...

Today was one those better days. It began with waking up on the floor and making a banana and nutella sandwich on rice bread. My friend, Claudia picked me up and from there we ventured off to Rip City Skates, the oldest skate shop around town. The skate shop is my favorite, when you walk up there’s usually a chair outside that somebody was sun tanning in. The window to the store is collaged...

The other night I went to vans. On the way there was a bunch of traffic so my friend and i stopped by ikea on the way, and ate some food. I have many memories there, when i was little my dad used to take me there and we’d get the manager special. I used to always pick the apple cake for dessert, which is super yummy, but this time I just got a kids meal and a whole almond cake. I tried to...

All day the combi has been a snake sesh, even when there was like six people. To add to that it’s mostly younger kids who are relatively new or seem to be, learning how to take their turn in a snake sesh. There’s a method to it. You don’t want to be the person who goes every other run and does the SAME RUN OVER AND OVER. If you’ve landed the run twenty times, thats more...

This weekend is one of the biggest AM contests and it’s going to be at the combi bowl. So there’s probably not going to be any mellow sessions going on there, not that, that would change wether or not I’m going to skate there. Pretty much every time I go I also have to stop by Tastea, a tea shop. It always smells amazing in there, and today I walked in with my friend and there...

Watching people that get excited about what they do makes you want to do the same. I tend to watch food network, if I end up watching television. There’s one show imparticular that makes me want to become a chief. Or I get inspired to make a super over the top meal or dish. Then I get to the kitchen and remember whatever ever dishes I make I’m going to have to clean. This...

Going to Hawaii has motivated me to pursue learning how to surf. So today I woke up around six to go to his surf club and actually surf. I’m amazed that I got up in the first place. I also was meeting my friend to barrow a wet suit and board cause my brother lost my left my board at the beach one day and its pretty much forever lost. So I get there and there’s signs posted not to go in...

Hawaii Nights.
Around eight-ish Allysha, Rick, and I decided to head over to visit the all the girls that came over for the Poseidon Foundation. We really wanted to have a bon fire but I guess there wasn’t any wood at the house nor was much still open to buy some. Anyway we vaguely knew where the house was and the couple of people we were talking to weren’t much better at helping us find where. We...

I feel as if I’ve been cooped up in my house for too long, I’ve been out for a few meals but aside from that I haven’t left. I’m also feeling significantly better and not zombie like but not close to being able to skate. So I caught a ride to Vans with SMA. I ended up driving the van to the park, which was kinda funny . I went to RubIo’s with Allysha, her mom, and...

Is it killing you? Cause I haven’t actually skated in thirteen days and I’m dying. On a good note, I have been drinking this super yummy tea to no end.
by the way I haven’t been super sick just a mild cold thats lingering. Its just to the point where I feel too drained to do much but not sick enough that I’m stuck in bed. I need to get rid of this, ugh.

I spent all of yesterday at my house being sick. And today I realized HOLY CRAP it’s a new year. I’m a little slow when it comes to certain things. Well I need to figure out some news year resolutions. Anyway my first one is to make this year count (by the way “this year” is actually every year…).

I’ve managed to get sick, and I find it really difficult to let myself rest when there is so many things to do. These next few days are going to be difficult.

Visiting the Vasoconstrictors’ (I like autocorrects version of the Vasconcellos’ name better) was a delight. It’s really a shame I cant see them more often, so hopefully that will change soon, but this trip has made me realize a lot. I knew it was difficult for Nora to be living on the east coast and pursue her skating but I really had no idea of the extent of how difficult....

This morning I woke up to an earthquake, interestingly not at home where I live on the San Andreas fault line. Anyway I woke up from Nora’s mom shaking me. After I went down stairs I noticed that it was snowing outside. This was the first snow I’d seen since I’ve been here, and I find it slightly ironic that it’d come on Christmas. It went very well with the more then life...

I woke up at six, and jumped out of bed and grabbed all my stuff. I planned on taking the bus to the airport and eating breakfast on the bus but my stepdad was kind enough to drive me there last minute. So I didn’t have time to drink my Zola, but i was happy that I didn’t have to take the bus. I made my way to the gate. I got to the airport way earlier then I had planned so there was a...

So I woke up early and got in my snowboard clothes. Went down stairs to make it to the car, where I tried to go back to sleep. We got to the mountain and I got on the chairlift and my day began. It was kind of ice-y at first. My friends and I went down a couple of runs which were fun, then around one we went to the car to barbecue. It took my friends a while to get it going but it worked out and...

Hawaii was fun. A very short visit but still worth it. So for the one full day I was there, I woke up around eight. So I slowly awoken and then wanted to get some malasadas from Paalaa Kai Bakery but first we stopped by a Lanikai Juice and got a mango smoothie with some other stuff in it. Then sat in the sun and had a nice chat with my friend, Rick. After that we stopped by the bank really quick....

Last night I went to Disneyland with my lovely fam bam. I’ve been to Disneyland more times then I can remember and I’m getting older so I’m starting to be less and less enthused about going to Disneyland. The only things that never get old is Pirates of the Caribbean ride, clam chowder, and the Tiki room. In fact I sometimes just listen to the sound track of the Pirates of the...
For the record, I don’t think my writing skills are that great.
