California has been great. Hanging out with Alicia has been more than amazing.
Yesterday I rode the BART for the first time, with the help of Alicia. We saw New Found Glory, it was a fun show. During Set Your Goals, Alicia lost her phone, but some dood found it and we got it back. We watched the rest of the show from the balcony, it was different, but it was a nice change and a break from always standing in a crowd at shows. NFG covered Gorilla Biscuits, played some acoustic songs, played dont you forget about me from the breakfast club, and a kind of dashboard cover. They had quite a solid setlist, it was a really enjoyable show.
Today Alicia and I hung out allll day for over 12 hours. I would post pictures but they are awaiting review to see if they're ok to be spread on the internet. Bowling, food, skating, meeting the sisters, meeting the mom, track, dinner, post it notes, and much more. Alicia's family rules, and I need to say her name more in my blog posts. :)
Today I didnt even have to use my a.k.
I got to say it was a good day.

50th post
yee! I'm in Moraga, CA right not at St. Mary's College campus. Its really pretty here. And its hot, everyone is nice. Theres a lot of rich people in spandex riding around on nice bikes around these parts.
Mike picked me up in Oakland, we drove around, skated, played basketball, went to Berkley, and got lost. Sweet, I'm really tired and sitting in the dorm. Everyone is upstairs partying. Theres gonna be a lot of pictures these days.
Great skate/snow shop in Moraga, surprisingly good selection, nice dudes, cool vibe. MILO
Berkley, ate some 'za at Fat Slice
Hit up all the cool shops, sweet displays, more skateshops. A lot of bums, rastas, hippies, and hipsters here.
The display of these obviously shows that they are really Trash Talk belt buckles.
Lame and overpriced tools of the trade.
Hit up Rasputin. 3 stories of glory, so wild.
More shops.
A taste of home sweet home, found in some thrift shop.
I need to get out and get pictures of all the graffiti that is EVERYWHERE.
Tomorrow's agenda: hang out and adventure with Alicia, see New Found Glory. :))

All my belongings to last me the next 11 days are packed up. We're driving to Seattle at 3:00 in the morning, and I'm getting on a plane around 8:00am. The lame airline company d00dz won't let me bring my skateboard on the plane as a carry-on, so I had to fit it in my bag. And I decorated my big check in bag with an awesome Wu-Tang shirtpatch. I will be bringing the mothafuckin ruckus.
I'm going to be in California tomorrow, this rules.
Jack and I went for a bike ride today, it was really sunny and warm enough to just wear a t shirt and jeans. So great, it felt way good just riding around. We stopped by New Yak City, they sold their last Capita Horrorscope :( but I liked the Gnu Street Series. If it didn't have lame graphics I would consider getting it. I really want to stop by The Hundreds shop among so many other places in SF. I don't know where to start.
While on our bike ride we saw a fillin in an alley done by none other than the infamous, lame, over-rated, NYC bomber COPE 2.
But it wasn't cope2. This struck me as kind of odd. Well cope2 sucks, hes been bombing the same simple throw that was given to him by another for 20 years. Doing the same pieces for 20 years. Not progressing for the past 20 years. And making pathetic attempts at cashing in on the recent popularity of graffiti. But whoever did this sucks more. What does this kid write? COPE 8734587345983? Theres been about that many people that have tried to use the name. And did he really think that throwie was cool enough to straight up bite? Did he think no one knows who cope2 is? Yeah man, thats definitely not one of the most recognized throwies in the history of graffiti, more so of the internet boom of graffiti. You tool, go back to painting your fence. I usually have sympathy for toys that are trying but fuck this kid.
Oh, my mom is having a burlesque bake sale as a fundraiser for her non profit organization, Arts in Motion. You should be over 21 and come, or be over 17 and volunteer.
see you in da bay mang

spring bake
Hey Alicia, wanna hang out Saturday night?
David and I originally intended on going skateboarding but it got really windy. So we gave up and went on the computer and hung out. We ended up making cookies. Peanut butter with chocolate chip cookies, premade dough. So I guess we didn't even really make the cookies. All we did was put them in balls on a cookie sheet. But then we decided that was boring and lame, so we made an upside down cross. Trve kvlt black metal cookies.
before.
with david's mom, only one apron.
after.
then we ate it and got sick.
I need to pack my bags, I can't put my excitement in words.
