~SKATEBOARDING.~After skating for about 13 years, I seriously see know signs of slowing down. It's the most fun I have ever had in my whole life, and it has taken me places where I would have never had went if it weren't for it. Making friends and having new experiences and stories to tell will keep me doing this for another 11 years.....I'm down for life.....
My puppy ~HOBBES KILLA AKA KING JOFFY JO.~ This dog is a beast. He's my best travel companion and worst sleeping buddy. He snores so loud, you would swear there's a 500lb man in my bed. Every time I look at him, I can't help but laugh. He's my best friend and I just can't see my life without him.
He rarely begs....
~ART.~ Just about any art will do for me. I'm more prone to abstract pieces, but my mind is open to knew genres. It's hard to find the time to actual sit and paint canvases anymore. It took years to finally realize that my world is one big blank canvas. So putting my own special touches on the things around me, really intrigue me. Plus, I love giving my board away to a kid, and then later spotting him riding it. I may not have my name on the bottom of it, but I still get the same feeling. It's like giving away two pieces of art at the same time.
Gotta pay homage......Keenan Milton ....RIP..

HOT WAX 80's GRIP........
Fancy useless gadgetry. I love new cell phones, computer and camera devices, and various other things I do not need, nor can I afford.
My ~IPOD~ especially. I never needed an ipod until I got one. Now, I just can't leave the house without one. I feel lost. Rainy days and late nights, I spend staring at my laptop, trying to fine tune it. It's never right. I can never have enough music. My life needs theme songs. All day every day.
~ANYTHING ASIAN OR JAPANESE~ in general. I love their culture and technology. It's just super amazing to me. Asia has brought us beautiful women and camera phones....so how could I not love that?
R.I.P. My ill Honda wagon....Fools got smoked on the daily....
~ROLLERGIRLS.~ Those girls are soooo badass. It's a guilty pleasure. I used to watch Rollergames as a kid. I'm obsessed. I watch it on tv whenever I get the chance.
~I LOVE TO WRITE~........Especially my feelings. Sometimes it's easier to express your opinions on paper than it is to express them out loud. There are about a million various feelings written down on scraps of paper and various journals that I have just forgotten about. Every now and again I might stumble upon one and share them with a friend. Occassionally I write for an awesome magazine called Focus, and other times I help my friend by donating my rants and raves to haveboard.com.
~TRAVELING~........Get me the hell out of here....Just so I can miss the place I just left. Boston is the best city in the world. After visiting it a bunch, I have a little Boston pride. I would live there if I could afford it and if they would have some indoor parks...It gets sooo cold there. But beautiful. So many good times, and soooo many awesome memories. Good times.
The best city I have ever set four wheels down on....BOSTON, MASS......
~ALONE TIME.~Sometimes gathering your thoughts is the best feeling in the world. Re-evaluate. Re-live. Ponder......and then re-juvenate. You'll be glad you did.
I'd like to meet:
I don't do the "random" or "seen you around" friends requests. I appreciate the compliments you all leave, and the positive words, but don't send friend requests if you aren't in my circle because I don't accept them. Thanks anyway, but no thanks.
And if you are one of the fortunate people to be apart of the elitest group that is my friends, don't bitch about being on my top friends list. If you need that kind of validation to make you feel good outta life, you are in fact pathetic and should good cry in a corner somewhere.
Music:
Podcasts. I'm obsessed with mixtapes. You get to hear so much more than what you get on MTV or the radio.

Brandon "B DOlla" Burch. THat guy makes me do shit on my board that I never thought I could do. WHen I want to quit, he wants to keep going. He looks so comfortable on a skateboard and is the nicest most straight-up person I have ever came across. He's skates fast, and slams hard. But he always manages to get up with a smile on his face. He puts up with my bitching and complaining, and is a bad insomniac like me. Living with him, I don't think we ever went to sleep before 4am. He's destined to do some great things in this world, except beat me at Mario Strikers....He gets his ass handed to him every time! Stay focused buddy.
Jessica Raczkowski. SHe has been such a positive. She has no idea. From as long as I could remember,she wanted to do art.....And she's doing it. Following your dreams is something not many people follow through on. People try to discourage you from your goals....but she stayed true to her passion. SHe never faultered and is living her dream. What's not to admire about that? CHeers!! To see her work check out www.africanash.com
