Just got back from skateboarding with james.

It was awesome.

We were in the wal-mart parking lot, because there's this one part where it's always empty and no cars go and barely any people go.

So like, I was practicing some minor stuff like shuffling my feet over to the ends of the board, and lifting the nose. I can do that stuff alright, but not really.

And then James was like "here, try this trick." and goes on the skateboard, and the goes like he's going to nosegrind the curb, but basically just like..puts the on part on, and then you go off and keep going.

So, I got on and then he pulled me and I held on to his arms, and then I lifted the end...

and I almost got it a bunch of times, and I did do it like twice with his help.

And then there were these guys about his age that were roller blading, and they thought I was so cool. XDDDDD

Anyway. So he was talking to them, and I was trying to do the trick on my own.

And I almost had it. But then I fell on my ass.

James said it was a cool fall, though...because it looked like I was just going like how you would flop onto a couch. It didn't hurt, but whatever. It's the principle.

The really funny thing, though is that I almost fell off, and that hurt more than falling. XD

I was like, trying to swing the board by lifting the nose and then swining it around, but I went forward at a weird time and angle, and almost fell. And my one arm went oneway, and my body kind of went the other...and it was just like weird. But then I caught myself, but it sucked because my shoe was coming off and it was almost a nasty fall.

And there was another one, too. Because it was when we were just getting there, and I was trying to turn or practising lifting the nose or something...and then I went forward, and I almost would've fell and like...it would've been bad, but then I caught myself and didn't even get to the ground. Lucky, lucky.

I told james that if I know how to do the noesgrind/curb cap thing by next thursday, I'll buy us a pizza and some pop from panago to celebrate. So, hopefully I can do it because that'll be fun.

I worked out on the machine thing, too. So I am like beat.

But it was fun. I love feeling my muscles work, and the sweat and my heart race and my chest ache, etc. etc. It's just great. A true feeling of being alive, I'd say.

I'm sticky and gross with sweat. Just waiting for mom to get out of the bath, and then I will take a shower in a few minutes after that. Maybe I should take the dog for a walk before that because I only took him on one. But it'd have to be short, because I am like...ready for bed right now.

Or maybe I won't, because we went on a long one today...yeah.

I think I'll just get into my pajamas and then play some dragon warrior IV.

Hmm, yeah.

Sounds like a definite plan.
