So, it's been awhile. I've been gone for a long time and I don't talk much to anyone anymore... It would seem I grew up in a direction that required my immediate attention and as I don't want to mention the fact that it was all for naught. I remember the laughs, as they were pretty funny. And the moments of sentimentality... All or most of my friends are gone and I am left with the new members of another generation of AC.
What can I say? I reached a new age of maturity and it landed me here. You know, I'm sort of glad I'm getting back to the computer life style. My lungs needed a break. I miss the past though, as most would. And I miss the brotherhood. The companionship. The connection to people from so far away. It was good. But I've lost a number of skills due to the fact that I live where one must prove how tough they are to avoid being harassed or held up at gun/knife point. And its funny because my "hood" isn't so bad.
Well, Honestly? I just wanted to try this blog out. I get the feeling I've failed my others and seeing as I dont know how to delete them properly I'll let them serve as things not to do? Although one really amuses me. The one where I chipped my tooth haha. Aww man, that day sucked bawls...

So guys, I'm not sure if you knew this or not, but I skate. I've been skating for a couple of years now actually (since around 8th grade) but I hadn't really picked it up until about Sophomore year (last year) and I've been getting better haha.
A cousin of mine actually moved over to my state from Mexico and I have to say he is an experienced skater and I've learned a shit load from that ****er haha. I mean lately I've acquired a good bag of tricks.
Mostly what I can accomplish is (also in fakie) Frontside and Backside 180 olies, Shove its, Pop Shove its, Olies, 50-50 Grinds, 50-0 grinds, boardslides, manuels (to a certain degree) and some old school moves like an old school impossible. The best staircase I've landed had about 5 steps (lol ameature really) and those were only made with the average ollie
What I want to learn (or really master) are the kickflips and heelflips. So far i can only get them to varial but it's really going to take some time. Oh yeah, I must'nt forget the Big Spins, those are bad ass haha. But I'm glad, really. I've got this far, maybe I can get farther. I'm planning on joining a competition. Maybe I'll end up winning. It's kind of a dream of mine to get sponsored... But idk. It's all really just up in the air for now. I suppose I'll just need to wait and see where my decisions take me. I'll try to get some footage for you guys to see if you want. Maybe even make a sponsor video that will blow minds. In any case, I feel accomplished and I hope to get better.
