Snow days are awesome!  unless you try to go out in them and fail.  this morning i left from the girls apartment at 8am.  I got across the street and parked my car, got out my laundry and walked bat to their apartment at 9.  haha it took me an hour to drive about 100 yards!  haha, i am so ready for san francisco!!!  but today is still gonna be an awesome day!  

front blunt pop outs anyone?  First try first time ever to bang it out also!?  well that was last week, this week after 30 tries i gave up...stuck it soooo many times but just couldnt roll away...tear...

i have a girlfriend...

so on thursday night leslee and i drove to the ville to hang out with justin and janet, and i could not be happier with how much fun we had!

the drive down was awesome, leslee and i talked and laughed and i taught her memptemp.  i think she put a dent in the hood of the car haha!!  janet and leslee get a long great so that makes things really great for justin and i!  i got to talk to justin about the skate ministry a little bit too so thats awesome.  on friday we hung out, say Slumdog Millionare which is a pretty good movie, the ending is far-fetched and they (india) couldnt get through a movie without throwin in some bollywood in it haha!

then we ate chili and talked for a while then went bowling, it was really fun.  Leslee and i headed back at like...12 and got back to indy at 2.  the drive home was amazing.  we had another good talk, and i can not be happier with where God has allowed us to go.  i can't believe how beautiful of a heart she has and the blessing that i have in have in getting to see it.  i dont think that i've ever been such an open book before...but i wouldn't have it any other way...

Stick shifts and safety belts
Bucket seats have all got to go
When I'm driving in my car
It makes my baby seem so far

I need you here with me
Not way over in a bucket seat
I need you to be here with me
not way over in a bucket seat

But when we driving in my Malibu
It's easy to get right next to you
I say "Baby, scoot over please"
And then she's right there next to me

I need you here with me
Not way over in a bucket seat
I need you to be here with me
Not way over in a bucket seat

Well alot of good cars are Japanese
But when we're driving far
I need my baby, I need my baby next to me

Ah..well

Stick shifts and safety belts

so...we went to El Torito, really good food, then we went to the berrix.  Now here is where its interesting...for those who know me they know that i dont really share ANYTHING that has to do with skateboarding with those outside of skateboarding.  Not my mother, sister...so on and so forth.  most def. not any girl. 

i took her to the berrix, and i skated, then taught her a little bit.  willingly, and it was amazing.  this is one of the areas that i keep closed and hidden from the opposite sex for the most part because they just dont understand it.  and nothing hurts more than people not seeing the worth of something that is dear to you. i know they dont do it on purpose, but they just dont see it.  so i keep this hidden for the most part from those i know wont understand it.

she does :)

so then we went to the gymnastics room and had a blast in there, trampolines...pretty much everything you see at the olympics...it was awesome.  layed on the big fluffy mat and talked for an hour and a half!!!

went back to my house to watch the colts game...depression begines to sink in, but with company as gorgeous as i had...it didnt last very long :)

went back to her apartment, tuck her into bed, talk for about an hour.  say goodnight, drive home.
tonight was def. the best date i have ever had, period.

tomorrow...THE GHETTO BERRIX!!!  bible study...pretty excited about it.  i learned 5 new tricks today, and regained 4 old ones...im still makin my comeback haha! 

God is so amazing, He is really opening a lot of doors and healing my heart.  He is also teaching and showing me a lot.  For the first time in a long time i cant believe how impactful He is being on my life everyday.  I missed a lot of it, but i see it more clearly everyday...I love you Abba, thank you for the blessings that i have in my life.  I pray that they both continue to grow and glorify your Holy name.  I don't deserve them, but somehow You allowed them to choose me.  Thank You Daddy

Sorry that my updating has such huge gaps in between them.  I wasn't actually aware that anyone read them!! 

Well, a few big things have happened in the past few months!  1- My skateboard ministry has started and it has been going for a month now!  It is really crazy how God has brought this together.  2- I (along with my pastor and a few other key players) are in the talks of having a skatepark built just east of downtown!  So that will be crazy because it will be the first and closest park in and to downtown!  And 3- No word yet but there is speculation about possibly getting a skate shop. 

*All 3 of which are dreams of mine and have been since i first became serious about that plank of wood, the second love of my life that i call skateboarding. 

Christmas was good, probably the best christmas i have had since i was...Okay, it is the best christmas i have had in my whole adult life...which hasn't been that long but still, 7 years is long enough.  New Years was fun, pretty low key.  i spent it with someone special so that was enough.  I didn't stay up too late cause i had to work today but that was okay too because i got to catch up with a friend i haven't seen in a month or so because she has had several surgries. 

Um...a couple of goals i have for this year are 1- Eat healthy, 2- Be healthy, 3- Make a CONCIOUS effort to spend more time with God, 4- Laugh more, 5- Be more outgoing, 6- Use the gifts that God has given me to their fullest extent, and the list honestly goes on but these are actually life goals but i really want to begin to focus on them this year.

OH!  CRAZINESS!  okay the beginning of this summer i weighed 230-235...guess how much i weigh now!!!  okay at the end of the summer i weighed 220, last month 205 and now!!!  NOW I WEIGH 187!!! WITH A FULL STOMACH!  its crazy because i haven't really changed anything!  the only real change is i skate all the time haha!  but i will stop boring your ears off...or eyes i guess.  does anyone really read this?

oh, the someone special that i spent new years with was leslee. more on her in time.
