The Glass Broad

And today has been numb. Not really good or bad just another day. I got the day off so I could study for my End of Course exam tomorrow over nearly 1000 possible questions they could choose from.

But at least I had a good skate session this past weekend. Maybe I will go skate today!

5 Years Ago

Hey Hi HELLO.

So today, intense. I go in to take an outrageously difficult test assuming that I am at best going to make a 50 and I instead blow my mind by passing it with an 85. Go me.
So today, bummer. I have been talking to a few people around base and turns out there are a few people who like to play Trading Card Games such as Magic, YuGiOh, Pokemon, Naruto, and whatever else. So I organized Magic Mondays so that we could all come and play. You know who shows up? Just me and my friend Dan. But hey, I'm cool I can deal I understand no everyone can make it so maybe next week more people will show up. Maybe I should offer food. I love when people are trying to talk you into something and as a last resort they remind there will be food.

So today, finally. Vintage picture from 5 years ago! 

Day Two of Being Sick

I couldn't go all of July without putting out something for the month. Well I have been sick the past two days, but I muscled through with a dashboard full of tissues and took a drive with my buddy Keith up to Great Yarmouth to ride some shred sickles.
It was fun!

In this Time

This week has been a great one despite the awful weather. I got my skateboarding on this week and made a video of some of the footage from the week. I would like to thank my friend Jeff Paulin for doing some of the video recording and my friend TJ Aycock for allowing me to use his song in my video.

  

Magic Mondays!

Today was a great day at work it started off rainy and chilly will I was at PT, but after breakfast the sky cleared for the most part creating a gorgeous day of work. I worked on a ton of building making doors work. "Hi I'm Bob the Builder!" Haha, except I wear an Air Force uniform.

After work I went on a solo mission to the skate park and just played around. It's surprising how you don't even notice yourself progressing until you think back to how many hours and how much effort you put into something you love. I might have crafted the best line of my life. The term line in skateboarding is the art of string a series of tricks together one right after another. I land a boardslide grind down a hand rail and rode up the quarter pipe that was located ahead of it and did a revert tail stall and then rode up hip transfer and ollied to smith grind. I was shocked I landed it because that last trick I spent forever on and could not land it Sunday. I was satisfied to say the least.

If I lost you in the skateboarding lingo then here is a video of a speed drawing clip I made a few months ago and just  recently uploaded.

A Day in Cambridge

9:30 is when today started. I was a little tired from the few drinks I had from the night of socializing. After cleaning up I grabbed a few of my friends and caught a train into Cambridge we walked all over the place and filled our belly's at a place called Clowns. Clowns is an Italian sit down eatery. After that we went to The Fitzwilliam Museum. That place was amazing I was not allowed to take any photos while I was in there, but my favorite painting was the one of twins sisters that were in there twenties called Kate and Grace.

After adventuring through Cambridge we got back on the train and called it a day. I feel very artsy today. :]

This last picture is of a girl I meet when I was home for two weeks of leave I told her that my favorite era was the 1940's and 50's and she put together a photo shoot dedicated to it. This girl is incredible.

 

Back to Work

After two weeks of being in the sun and the heat of Florida I have returned to it's exact opposite... England. Well it was harder than usual to adjust back to this climate and culture, but now that a week has gone by I think I might be back to my normal schedule finally.

I am super excited about my college class that I am taking now it is a Public Speaking class. To easy Sergeant.

Here are some pictures from my trip home.
