Back in my hometown.

I was born in Reno Nevada and I lived there for ten years. I really miss that place and just recently my sister moved back there with her friends. This summer after school we get to go visit her. I'm really looking forward to seeing Reno again and seeing all of my sister's friends.

When we go to Reno we will also get to go to lake Tahoe which is my favorite place in the world. When visiting my sister there is also going to be a skateboard competition in Reno that I want to join and try to win.

Ticketed For Having Fun

I have been skating for four years. When you start skating you have to accept the lifestyle, getting hurt and getting kicked out of places. I have been kicked out of places 50+ times and it gets really old. Every person who kicks you out always say the same thing. Some people even try to act tough which I think is the funniest part.

In all those 50+ times I've been kicked out I've been ticketed twice. Once was for skating at a retirement home and my board hit someone's car. The other time was when the town built a brand new library and the first day we went to go to skate it cops showed up and gave us an even bigger ticket! I've paid a total of $175 for the two tickets I have gotten. But no matter what you got to keep skating.

Injuries

I have been skateboarding for four years. In those four years, I have had many painful injuries. Even though I have hurt myself many times skating, I still go back out and do it again every day.

In my four years of skating I have rolled both my ankles twice, had two concussions and got permanent nerve damage in my right pinky. I still have the nerve damage and I still can't feel anything. The worst injury in my opinion were my two concussions because my head would hurt while doing anything like watching TV and I was too scared to go to bed at night.

Talent Show

For the talent show at our school I'm going to do three songs. The first song I am going to do us Swing Life Away by Rise Against with my friend shad.

Then after that I'm going to do one song with PIT. I'm going to sing and play guitar and then he's going to rap. After that I will do three songs with my cousin Mitch.

Another New Place

After one year in Wendover, I think it's already time to move. My mom has been wanting to move to the city of Billuxie, Mississippi since before I was born. She asked me if I would want to move there at the end of the summer and I told her I was down. I just thought why live in one place your whole life.

After one year in Wendover I've met a lot of new and cool people. But this town can get pretty lame sometimes, and the skate scene is pretty boring. also the weather there is pretty nice too, the coldest it gets there is 70 degrees! Not to mention it's by the beach and florida, and there are a lot more concerts to go to down there. I've never been there before but I have a good feeling I'm going to like it.
