Things You Are Stoked On But Not Stoked On

[_UniversalTruth_]

[Dontfearthereefer]

so today i missed my first class so i got real baked like so high you wish you never got so high, high. Anyways im on the way to school on the bus and there is some chick standing up and the bus driver hit the brakes and she ate TOTAL shit, straight up looked like the bish got stone cold stunnered. at this point im in an uncontrolable fit of laughter like this is the funniest shit i've seen in a while and she just glares at me with the stink eye.

stoked that i seen something real funny, not stoked everyone on the bus thinks im a huge dickhead

Not Stoked:
I went to paris with the girlfriend to celebrate our 4 year anniversary...
I got mugged on the first night or a brand new camera and most importantly my passport.
This meant going through all kinds of difficult processes and expensive fixes such as rebooking our flights. Generally a horrable experience and the most expensive weekend away ever.

Stoked:
We didnt let the fuckers ruin our holiday, managed to keep in high spirits and have a good holiday anyway.
Dont let the fuckers keep you down!

how'd it go down?he have a knife?gun?

[finknoos]

Nah nothing like that, they went for the confusion technique.

We left a bar at about 3am and were walking back to the hostel when these two guys who look drunk run up and start hugging me and shit, just getting real close and not letting me move really. Because i was abit drunk i just thought they were some drunk people who were a bit too friendly until i felt a hand slide into my front jean pocket. so i slapped it away and started pushing them off me thinking "this isnt funny anymore" then as soon as i manage to get them off me they run away. It took me a moment to realise whats going on, then i realise theyve stolen the contents of my jacket pockets which were even zipped up. so luckily i managed to hold onto my wallet with money and uk driving licence in my jean pocket.

So theres another thing im stoked on but not stoked on
Not stoked: getting robbed
Stoked: it wasnt violent

[Zurg]

i think thats usually referred to as "pick pocketed". i guess thats the same as mugging, but i thought mugging implied a more hostile robbery

[Harem]

I'm stoked I'm working 5 days and making a decent income while also studying part time, it's so hard to sit around and do nothing these days. Not stoked that at this rate it'll probably take me until 2015 to complete my degree. I kind of just want it over & done with, eh.

Went to a Gonz art show but he never showed, missed him at a demo last year as well so was pretty bummed on that. Here's some photos I took

Yesterday was a great day. I worked at the Yoga center, went to a lecture on the Bhagavad Gita, and participated in Kirtan. I was flying with some deep energy and focus. So before Kirtan I went to skate, because I'd bought a new sled and my first pair of skate shoes in a long time (I'd been broke and skating old running shoes for a year). It was a beautiful day, crisp sweater/hoody kind of weather. I rolled up to the local Uni campus to skate some new spots and there was a crew of 8 dudes skating and filming. Well, 2 were skating and the rest were lurking. No one said anything to me so I just started jamming the ledge and you know these dudes are skating well, landing some sick shit so I'm giving them props and they ignore me. I asked the group of lurkers where they were from, they ignored me for a minute the one dude answers and asks if I'm local and stares at me. I just had to laugh. That would've bummed me out a few years ago but like I said I had to laugh at their clique and just keep skating. In the hour I skated I landed everything I tried with the exception of a 2 block smith. I love doing yoga then skating.

What do running shoes feel like to skate in? I can't imagine it being enjoyable.

It was like a couple hundred quid for that scroll i think. I was gonna get a postcard thinking they'd be like a fiver but they were ?20 so I passed. They were each individually done but i was also a bit put off because they were just done on the back of free british museum postcards  which i thought was a bit lame

man i hate skate cliques, now days i don't have a crew - i'll just skate with whoevers about, so if i roll up to a new park with one friend and everyone there is vibing i get second hand embarrassment from how ridiculous they are

in soho on like berwick street i think....  i swear that scroll was like 65 or 85, the ones with drawings/paintings on were more like 200. but yeah i was hoping for a cheap postcard too ha... they were all sold though, so people were obviously keen to pay ...

[Grubby Mits]

 Probably, i can't remember what it was but i looked at a couple of price tags in the couple of hundreds so guessed it was the same. Really want neckface to do a show in the city, hopefully he'll actually show (looking at you Gonz!!!)

I was skating in old classic new balance running shoes. they're really flat and have no grip. I'm really digging the Emerica Flicks though, holy shit. I get stuck in my ways and all I've skated for years are Vans. These shoes with memory foam are awesome!

and yeah, cliques are weak. All of my homies from back when either don't skate and those who do, even though I like skating with them, are into heroin. Even if they're sober I've got to worry about some shit going down and I just don't like to be around that anymore. It's all about skating!

why?

Been a fan of his art ever since I first saw it years ago, why else would I want to see an artists show?

RE: Gonz -

I've posted this before, but I love talking about it at any chance 




All I did was ask him to sign my note pad (which I always keep in my bag), dude ended up drawing that for me. So psyched. I'd imagine something like this at his galleries would go for quite a bit.
