SKATE TRAINING: DAY 1

finally on my work off days and I can get to teaching myself how to skate. the process is rigorous, laborious and very painful. I have yet to fully ‘stack it’ per se, but that might also be me chickening out of any risky situations due to my helmet and pads not arriving yet. my legs feel wobbly and the rare British sunshine is beaming on me, but im glad I took my first step.
my technique is very horrible, but after about an hour of going up and down my street, I can semi-consistently get both feet on the board and scuttle forward, which feels like progress enough for a first day. next day will be getting my footwork spot on, which will help me avoid the stacking it part a little bit.
P.S. my road is about as smooth as my face after an acne breakout so im definitely making it harder for myself, but then again if I make it harder now it’ll be easier later, right? right?

My brand new skateboard

Learning to skate as an adult has made me feel very sad, hurt my bones greatly, and has also been the best time of my life. I’m very close to ollie’ing for the first time as someone who is very tall, and i’m very glad i’ve worked through all the pain and fear so far with pochacco :)

skating

every since i got my first real skateboard at a santa cruz demo in columbus ohio at dodge skatepark i was hooked. not only endless trips and adventures with friends learning how to navigate life and live how you want. such a cool thing to learn that inadvertently teaches you perseverance and encourages independence. it’s something that’s hard to get if you never loved it, and i don’t think i’ll ever stop loving it.

protesting!!!

it’s the very least we can do. one of the few things america has gotten right is allowing us to protest the government and that’s exactly what we should be doing right now. there are multiple ways of protesting including going to marches, boycotting, addressing your representatives directly, and voting “uncommitted“ in the upcoming primaries to communicate to the democratic party that they are not acting in the people’s interests and that we will not support biden if he continues to fund this occupation and the deaths of tens of thousands of people. please do your part because you’d want people to do the same if it was you in this situation. i’ve linked a list of upcoming protests around the world. please use it. <3

finally watched marcel the shell with shoes on

so freaking cute. i love movies where it’s a tiny character and you get to see their different little world (like ferngully which is also great if you haven’t seen it) i didnt expect it to also be a commentary on social media and celebrity but that was cool too. music was great. the voice acting was great (how is that jenny slate????). i was hesitant to watch because everyone spoke so highly of it and i didn’t wanna be disappointed, but it’s so worth the hype!
