I'm sick!

I have a runny nose and a sore throat.

It's just allgeric to something outside I guess.

My grandparents are coming into town today. Joy of all joys.

Their kinda mean. Wait. Really mean. It's all good though, they have a camara! Tomorrow, I'm going sightseeing with them downtown in a town I lived in for 5 years. I think it's kind of funny to watch tourist get all excited about regular things such as the mud flats or the werid light. It's kind of funny how neive some tourist can be. I was working in a tourist shop once and about every day some one would ask "Do you take American money?" as they hold up a dollar bill like I would have no clue what "American money" is or "Where can I convet my money into Alaskan money?" The best funny tourist thing when I overheard these people talking about the land mass across the Cook Inlet no even a mile away (I tottaly spelled that wrong.) "Look! Theres Russia!" "Wow, no wonder there's alot of millitary here. Russia is so close!" Hahaha...... I thought it was funnny at least....... As long as I make myself laugh, then.

Maybe you just had to be there.....

Hmm, my feet are really dry.

I shredder yesterday and it was so sweet. I didn't work on any moves, I just did long strings. Sometimes, when I'm shredding, I just stop because I can't think of anything to do. I need to be more creative. Maybe add somemore wraps, hopovers, and walk overs. Like Vasek.

On a random note, how do you pronounce Vasek?

I think I'm doing it wrong because I say it like "Va-ask"

Anyways, I think I'm going to go play extream hacky sack since I'm bored and tired of sitting even though I'm sick.

"I want you all tattooed" AHHHhHHH thats all I know of the some and it's driving me crazy!

the "s" is pronounced "sh" and the "a" is pronounced "ah". So it's pronounced Vashek or Vashka. That's crazy that you asked that. I was just wondering about that yesterday so I looked it up.

Hey Melissa, I totally get your joke about Alaska. I remember when I was a kid and lived in Wasilla and my dad had just gotten AOL. We were online in a chat room and half of the people in there thought we weren't even American. I couldn't believe how narrow minded some of them were!

Anyway, I might be comming up to Anchorage on the forth of July for a weekend with my dad, brother, and sister. If it happens I'll get in touch with you and we'll have a session. Hopefully the weather is hot enough by then to where shredding in San Diego then going up north won't affect me too much. I guess we'll see.

What happened to Anchorage's major footbag scene? You havent posted here in some time? Did Alaska finally break away from the continental US and lose its internet capabilities?

Hey guys!

Soooo Anchorage was overtaken by zombies and broke away from the continental US. So we been chilling over by the russain coast. It's pretty tight now. We built rockets onto Alaska, so now it's like our own boat made out of land. We can sail it anywhere.

Nah, I just stopped playing, I got too busy with school and hockey but about two weeks ago, I found my old pairs of lavers. I remember how much I enjoy playing and yeah. I put them on and shred.

Wait.

A better word the shred is dropped. I SUCKED! Toe stalling on my flipside was even hard for me at first but I still had alot of fun.

So I use to play varsity hockey and last year we went 22-0-1 so we were expecting a good year. Yeeeah, that didn't happen. We lost our first game 8-0.

Ouch.

So instead of working on the shit that made use lose, like pentaly kill, passing and what not. We skated. Every single practice after that lost and even after a win. (We're 1-5-2) So finally, the other asscaps and I went to talk to the coach. They made it plain and simple they weren't going to work on skills. Only punish us for our losing season by skating us every practice. They even went so far as telling us they don't even bring pucks to practice anymore.

Wtf?

Soooo we kinda got fed up with the coaches and their arrogant attitude so many of the girls dropped like me. I just think they honestly need to change their coaching style. Just because that worked last year does not mean it's right for this years team. We have a tottaly different chemsistry and a very young team. Only 5 upper classmen out of 24. RAWR!

Soo anyways, I'm not playing highschool anymore so I have alot more free time. Why not shred? My first session was pretty bad. I worked on basic stalls, which came back fairly quickly. I've decieded to build up slowly, getting a solid foundation. Thats what I'm doing.

Right now I'm working on 2 adds. Legover came back so quickly, I was surpised consdiering how much trouable I had with it in the begininng.

Blah, now I got to go to work. It's inronic since I work at Best Buy and I'm pretty much against big box stores. What can I say? I sold out for the 9.85 a hour.

Peace
