Back to School and Bowling

So its been about a week since school started up for me again, and for the most part, its going good. I'm still having some problems with turning stuff in on time/not procrastinating, but in time I know everything will straighten itself out. Its a trip to see all the new faces of the freshmen coming in, and I hope to perhaps become friends with some of them. I am in the bowling team for my school, and the season has officially started. We still have a month or so before we actually challenge other teams, but I hope to get into full gear to practice. For now, wish me luck.

My ears are lost in stereo lost in stereo!


So today I went to the All Time Low concert at the Pipeline Cafe. My friends were holding down a spot near the front of the line as well as a ticket, from 12pm (doors opened at 7). Once we got in, my group was able to get super close to the very front (2nd row). The first a filler band called Arkeo or RKO played. They were alright. By the time they left the stage though, the place was a total mosh pit. People were crowdsurfing, swearing, yelling, jumping, pushing, the whole lot. It got so bad at a certain point that I retreated backwards a little before ATL came on so that I could breathe a little easier. Long story short, it was FREAKIN AWESOME and was a great experience. I was soaking wet, covered in my sweat, other people's sweat, beer, water, spittle, coconut sunscreen, etc. and my ears were pretty screwed up. And you know what? It felt awesome. Going to a live was a great way to put a close to a fun (but fast) summer vacation as well as the weekend.

Heres a link to one of the videos that my friends took. I was really close to him when he took them, so hopefully this will provide some insight into how awesome it was from my perspective.

Long Time no Post


So I know I havent posted anything for a pretty long while now, but I assure you, it's only because of my laziness. Basically to cut a long story short, I finally got to Akihabara for some serious shopping, and got all the stuff that was asked of me by my friends. Then for the last few days of my trip I just cruised around and got some new glasses, shoes, etc. On June 24, I got on a plane and headed back to ghetto old Hawaii, USA. The past few weeks have been generally good, and I just recently purchased a fixed gear bike off of craigslist for a steal price. Hopefully I'll consistently ride it so that my weight problem will be gradually curbed. lol. School starts on August 3, which is the day after tomorrow. I have a mixed feeling of dread/excitement as I type this, because it will be awesome to meet my friends, but I realize that I havent done ANY summer homework. FML. Wish me luck.
