First

Half dollar! The cashier at the gas station gave me this as change.

Skype!

I skyped for the first time ever with my friend Stefan tonight! It was awesome! Good times, good times. Stefan has been a buddy ever since he was in eight grade. I met him at wrestling practice in the spring of '06. We used to weigh almost the same so I would always wrestle him. I used to beat him all the time. Over the years he grew and by the time he was a sophmore he could almost beat me every time. Now he's 17 and a senior in high school. I love this boy.

Sleigh Bells - Rill Rill

Songs from the Sleigh Bells have been playing at Vans lately. Its cool. The first time I ever heard anything by them was in a video filmed and edited by Kryger.  Next time I heard them and finally found out who they were, I was hanging out with Tim. He played the cd alot. I pretty much like all of their songs, a few more than others. I think right now my favorite songs by them are A/B Machines, this one, Infinity Guitars, and Crown on the Ground. Alot of favorites.

Guatemala

Its official. I'm going to Guatemala! I leave on Tuesday. I am rediculously excited. Right now they have a huge fair going on. There's going to be sooo much awesome, fresh food. Right now all the fruit and veggies are ready to be picked. I get to pick so much fresh fruit and coffee from my grandpa's farm. Super excited for mangos right off the tree! There's going to be loads of dancing, music and bands playing. There's going to be warm weather, great food, lots of sight seeing, fireworks, long walks, great food. Can I say great food again? Great Food!!  It's going to be awesome!! I can't wait. Tuesday can't come fast enough.

Dinosaur Jr - Been There All the Time

Tried on a pair of jeans that I've had since sixth grade. They fit.

Back Massage

I went to sports authority to get a basketball today and saw these cool back massagers. I got a two second back massage from my mom. I want one.

Since my little skate tour around downtown Orlando a couple weeks ago, I've had the radio in my car set to a station that only plays hip hop. I haven't really listened to the kind of stuff that plays on that station for a pretty long time. I was surprised that I recognized alot of the songs that played. I was more surprised that I actually knew most, if not all, of the words to those songs. I used to listen to this crap when I was in middle school, before I even knew what any of this stuff meant. We used to 'dance' to this kinda stuff at dances. Looking back now all I can say is, 'What the fudge?'

Throwback Thursday-ish

I really missed thursday this time. Red Rubber Ball by The Cyrkle. I heard this song on the radio today. I never heard it before, but I really like it. Super catchy.
