A crossroads

It was last week I believe. I was sitting, and a song came on. It reminded me of the past, and my mom, and all of these other good things. And then I thought to myself "what am I doing?" I mean I have a lot going for me as of now, but I used to be so nice. To everyone. I used to be 100 percent honest, with those around me, and with myself. I used to wake up each day with a smile, I used to never be sad, or have second thoughts. What ever happened???

No more being an asshole, no more worrying, no more.

well shit gawd damn.

as much as i want to deny it, and how much filming for the video i has yet to do...i cant help but be at least a little excited about the snow.






stay warm folks.

you can always depend on the kindness of strangers

This morning i learned that some random people will sometimes have your back completely. Last night i went to a bar, very close to my hotel in Rome. we drank and talked to some dutch kids. zou je myn snor willen beryden translates to "would you like a mustache ride" in dutch. anyway, all my american friends left to go to sleep, i stayed at the bar, talked with an Afghani man who told me that he hates america, understandable i suppose. next thing i remember, i am standing outside with some italian dude in my face, i think he was asking me if i knew how to get home. fucking language barrier is so frustrating sometimes. fast forward a few hours to me waking up on the floor in some random apartment in rome. oh fuck. i did not lose a thing, except maybe my sweater but i gotta go back to the bar to get that. i am very greatful. one person cared about my well being so much that they offered me a place to stay for the night. would you let some foreign person who did not speak you language and was totally wasted sleep on your floor? hell no i wouldnt, but maybe now i will. last night i was at an unsafe level of drunk, and it wasnt good. i also got back to my hostel a bit too late and missed my friends there, so now i am waiting in the lobby of this place, using the internet, just kind of waiting for someone i know to show up.

i have not been skating that much lately, but i guess i can wait until barcelona. later

Artsy in the Art building

Today, went to classes, applied for some internships. Skipped my last class to skate. Went to the mormon rails. Bjorn hurt his ankle, basically the same injury i had over the summer. After that I went to the park had a fun little sesh. So here is the main point of this blog. Tonight, Adam, Andrew, Bailey, Fletcher, Brian, Will and I went to shoot photos of us biking on our fixies in the art building for a project/business for Bailey. It was fucking sweet. The floors were slick, the walls were white, and the lighting was for an art exhibit. Brian filmed the entire thing, Bailey took pictures of us trackstanding and doing various other tricks. Well as far as this year goes it was definately one of the funnest friday nights. It was really cool experience. Pictures will be up via fletcher.

Milltown DAMN!!!

So here is my part from my video, Milltown DAMN!!!, that I made my senior year. Watching this just brings back such fond memories for me of skating after school and filming whatever we could. I am pretty sure that my Kream Up V.1 part will be better, well lets hope so anyway.


Also, I am going to Oktoberfest this weekend in Munich Germany. I am bringing one pair of clothes, my camera, and my drinking shoes. It should be a fucking wild time.

By the way, Tyler Bledsoe of Next Invasion fame is now on Fourstar clothing, moving up in the skateboarding world from humble, rager beginnings.

Snow Bro!!!!

Tonight I went to the Thats it Thats All tonight. For those who dont know what this is (nick, kreamettes) it is an over the top snowboard movie. Basically it is just planet earth with rocking guitar and huge airs. It was by far the most epic snow movie ive ever seen. Chris Murphy did the graphics, i was stoaked on that. The premier was bro brah fest. It bummed me out, this dude behind me was a huge tool and kind of ruined the first part of the movie. Will put it best 3 to 1 douche to nice people. What ever though, skiing is still fun. Anyway went to meet the recruiters, it was awkard but im glad I went. Just want to go skateboarding somewhere else this weekend.
I want to learn the handplant trick that he does at about 2 minutes.


the night job dilema

when you work a night job only two nights a week, its not often you get to leave early, especially when its the two busiest nights of the week, friday and saturday. so i often arive to coffee hour every monday morning and get asked, "will, how was your weekend?" and the common response is "it was ok, i worked, skated sunday, nothin crazy." and the everyone jumps into there epic tales of night-owl debauchery...





ho hum...sigh...
looks like the amount of silly drunken embarrassing facebook pictures of Will wont be going up anytime soon. hmmm..
