Insanity, spontaneity, New York City.STATE OF MIND I don't even know if spontaneity spon·ta·ne·i·ty n. pl. spon·ta·ne·i·ties 1. The quality or condition of being spontaneous. 2. Spontaneous behavior, impulse, or movement. Noun 1. is a word, but the randomness and un-boringness of the fastest moving city in the world put a shock-wave of unhealthy and sleepless sleep·less adj. 1. a. Marked by a lack of sleep: a sleepless night. b. Unable to sleep. 2. nights through the Volcom team's heart. The KC/DC skateshop is the endless portal of comfort. It's hard not to get stuck at this place, and not just because of the niceness of Amy and the employees. Also, who can resist a warm-up session with breakfast Coronas and a viewing of--in my opinion the best up-and-coming skater in history--Jake Duncombe? By the looks of this cubic human, you can't believe the speed, skill, agility, and bag of tricks that this kid knows and invents on a daily basis. I hurt myself the first day, but watching Jake is almost better than skating itself. I would scream out tricks that I normally render impossible-and he does them within two shots. STREET SKATING Street skating is the practice of roller skating (commonly on inline skates or quad skates) in groups on public roads. Street skates can be formal affairs, with prespecified routes, marshals and, at times, police escorts or ad hoc gatherings of like minded individuals. New York New York, state, United States New York, Middle Atlantic state of the United States. It is bordered by Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and the Atlantic Ocean (E), New Jersey and Pennsylvania (S), Lakes Erie and Ontario and the Canadian province of , in my opinion, seems like the most skate-friendly city I have ever been to. The photos in this article were a little easier to get than on any other trip I've been on because of one reason: WE DIDN'T GET KICKED OUT OF ONE SINGLE SPOT THE WHOLE TIME. I don't think that has ever happened, ever; I proclaim pro·claim tr.v. pro·claimed, pro·claim·ing, pro·claims 1. To announce officially and publicly; declare. See Synonyms at announce. 2. that this article has made history. A double set we skated for a while was out in front of a prison. Cops would simply stroll by and not give a fuck.

The amount of garbage that fell out of this guy's mouth even surpassed my own trashface. ONE MORE SHAG The night was young and the boys were fired up. KC/DC Amy had gotten all the boys on a high society guest list for a catwalk show after-party, the gnarliest waste mission ever. Never let a bunch of Australians to a free-food, free-booze, models everywhere dance fest if you can help it--because we will take advantage of it 'til it nearly kills us. This was the conclusion to that scenario. On the way back, Chima was throwing up out of the taxi window while Lewis held his head, and Shane was telling the taxi driver taxi driver n → taxista m/f taxi driver taxi n → chauffeur m de taxi taxi driver taxi n → that he owed him 20 bucks for the puke Puke Slang for selling off a losing position even if the loss is substantial. Notes: The point at which an investor decides to sell regardless of price has been dubbed "the puke point. ride. Back at the apartment, Shane passed out with his pants down, Chima puked in bed and on the floor, and Jake decided that pants or boxers were not a necessity until he passed out. After all that, poor Lewis, who had already had the pleasure of cleaning the puke up from everywhere, went to sleep only to wake up to his girlfriend puking on him in bed. After probably two hours of sleep (which seems standard in New York), I woke up and tried to cure my hangover by laying in the hammock hammock, suspended bed, usually of netting, canvas, or leather. The hammock and its name were introduced to Europeans by Christopher Columbus, who learned of them from Native Americans. . Realizing that it wasn't working, I looked outside to see that Joe Pease pease n. pl. pease or peas·en Archaic A pea. [Middle English; see pea. and Azar the Great were playing in a fire hydrant that the local neighborhood kids have broken the cap off of. I quickly put on shorts and ran down to probably the best hangover cure in the world. As cliche as it sounds, it was probably one of the funnest things that's happened to me. "Just one more shag with my wife and I could die happy after this," I found myself shouting. We turned up at KC/DC, of course, and were informed that once we'd left the party we (the Ozzies, or, in particular, an Australian of my description) had been falsely accused of stealing some dude's man-purse that had a laptop in it. Amy properly laughed in their faces and told them that "Niggas be getting paid" and don't need no man-bag. But poor Waste (KC/DC Mike) copped a grabbing from security guards, who then persisted to pour his own drink in his face just for sticking up for us convicts
A convict is a person who has been convicted of a crime. Convicts often become prisoners after a conviction. . Thanks, Waste. We owe you a drink. Wait a minute. Those drinks were free! HAT'S OFF My apologies for only talking about partying. Hell--it's New York! What do you expect? Actually, I don't apologize. If I wanted to be true about the trip I could write a book on the partying Spanky, Neckface, and I did. But that'd be boring for those who live there--because they survive that city every day. My hat's off to everyone who can live in the funnest city in the world, and for putting up with the Volcom team. I'd like to apologize in advance for my next NY trip. |
