Practice makes perfect......
Today I was a little more active than yesterday. I met up with Ed at around 1 and we headed to pick up Evan to get some (really) late breakfast. The bagel shop in Clifton never fails to disappoint. Evan had to be "fancy" and get a panini. The look on his face was priceless when he got his food. He attempted to switch with Ed, but as everybody knows Ed knows how to defend his food. Afterwards we went on a hunt to find Eric who wasn't that hard to find. Greg and Eric came down and we all skated for a while. Eric practiced his ollies, I rode off a few curbs and attempted a kickflip (almost got it), and Evan of course did his thing.....which is to make the that piece of wood dance beneath his feet. We all had to part ways though due to people having work or other things. So Greg, Eric, and I made our way to Party City to find supplies for our final in Acting I class. Party City failed but Michael's proved to be the place we needed to go. We got the stuff, headed to Quick Check for a snack, and Ed met up with us again. From there it was to Eric's house for some Mortal Kombat. I grew quite fond of Mileena. I made my way home after picking up Evan from work to find a freshly made chicken sandwich waiting. Hopefully tomorrow will be more of the same after I get out of class.

"It's good to know people in high places"
I recently got done watching Wristcutters: A Love Story. I loved every minute of it. The other world they created for people who have committed suicide was a very interesting take on what happens if you ever choose to hit rock bottom. I had it sitting on my instant queue for a while and just kept putting off watching it. The only reason I had heard of the movie in the first place is because Patrick Fugit had done an interview on a skateboarding website called The Berrics. I am glad I put it on my instant queue all those months ago. I think I have time for one more movie before my eyes fall out of my head. Hopefully tomorrow is a sunshiny day and I get to skate with a few friends.

If Jesus Saves.....Why Did He Ask Me For A Dollar?
Yesterday I attended the MCR concert in NYC at Terminal 5. While waiting in line I met some cool people from Deleware, and a church van passed us up with a sign someone drew that said "Jesus Loves You". It was hilarious and prompted a pretty good conversation about religion. MCR put on one hell of a show but the crowd was terrible. I have nothing against teeny boppers but they need to be schooled on proper moshing etiquette. By the 2nd band it was me, Eric, and Evan doing crowd control and picking up everybody who kept falling. It was totally worth it, but next time I see them I might be hanging in the back of the crowd. I missed my bus home so I had to take the bus to Passaic and grab a cab home. On my walk to the taxi spot I saw one of my friends I used to go to church with. He gave me a sob story and asked me for a dollar before realizing who I was. I gave him a dollar and jumped in the cab home. On the drive home I wondered what had happened to him. He was one of the good ones at church and how did he ended up like that. I was never into church like he was, and I strayed away after a while. I don't know sometimes, but I do know my life is where I want it to be right now. Good friends, good music, and good times. True I am missing some things, but those can wait for now. Well that's all for now. Laterz people.
