I had a list of about 10 things I needed to get done yesterday. I got most of everything done I could do on campus. I really needed to run into town to get a check cashed, buy a new skateboard, and put out the skatepark flyers. It was very chaotic trying to get everything to work out for going into town, luckily most of it worked. (Kenny Hopkins Photo: Pez)
We crammed 5 people total into my brothers Mustang; Kenny Hopkins, Will Gallison, Jessica Pez., some random girl, and myself. (Dale Nolan - Kickflip Photo: Pez)

After handing out the flyers, We drove to Saratoga. While Kenny and I skated the other 3 enjoyed themselves walking around town.

Taken a good look at what I am up against.
It began to take longer then I planned, I though I would get it in about 5 tries. People continually used the ally to walk down, causing us to take many breaks (which isn't good). The worst part about not skating all the time isn't that you get worse at skating, its that your mental state doesn't have the capacity to tell you what you are doing is good. You mind makes you think that landing on wheels is a bad thing. We had to retrain our minds this day, to remember that landing on the board is good.
After done skating, it's not very fun riding around with a broken board or easy.
