With permission, I have taken this idea from another cult. I think it would be great here.

This is a thread to post what you are totally stoked on. Share with us your happiness.  :)

So,  should a parent of 15 year old be stoked that Secret Service at the Austrian Embassy bought him a drink because he thought it was cool that he could do some jumpy spinny things on ice rink snow outside the front door?  

Ah yep, I am stoked, he is having a ball, and I am totally amazed at where this sport is going!

Killington's park setup is quite nice. About 10-12 features.

Too bad I'm too much a pussy and didn't really hit anything.

 if you don't want to invest in the frame, mount the photos up on some foam board, looks pretty legit for pennies on the dollar

I just used the file off my computer and Shutterfly. It cost $8 and change to get it printed (11x14). The frame I got from Target for $5. So I spent a little over $13 to get it done. Not too bad.

I really like Parkers idea of the foam board, but have other pictures in mind for that. Where do you get something like that done, and what's the general price range?

you can just buy foamcore at michaels or staples or someplace like that, and mount it yourself. you can get a bunch of different colors of it (probably white or black being the best for photos). Then you can either get some spray adhesive (super 77) and spray that on the back of the photo, then stick it to the board, or find some other way to stick it on. super 77 will mount it flat though, where as if you use regular glue you get the weird bubbles and lines.

We got a bottle of sake and some nice tall boys last night and had quite a nice time.  Things got kind of rough in beer pong when the front cup got filled with four shots, but it made for a more exciting game.  I have also found a new conquest in my friend's roomate--with his full approval.

Pretty stoked on my day, usually I'm pretty useless on weekends...I slept in till 1 PM, went downtown and had a burger and a pint, then took the bus over to Stanley Park. I had a nice walk, then sat on a bench and listened to my ipod and waited for it to get dark, then took some photos. Then, on my way back through downtown, I noticed a Taco Del Mar...I thought they didn't exist in Canada...nice! So I had a whole platter of food for 6 bucks. Also when I went to the bus stop to get on the bus back to UBC, I ran into this girl I kind of know, she is also from Oregon, and she is very cool and nice. (She is kind of dating one of my friends, I'm definitely not trying to get with her; since this IS PH, I feel like that needed to be clarified, haha), but in any case, it was a pleasant surprise. She told me about a cool park garden thingy a little east of here which I think I'll go to, maybe with her. Plus she is friends with a girl I AM trying to get with, haha...Bonus.

sorry, that was pretty rambling...

^ I think they're sick.

South Florida = a great time for a few days.  We're on night number 3 of 4 and we've got plenty of great stories.  Even though we're not skiing it's 70 at night, and we're rolling around in a drop top (Sebring, but it is a convertible in Florida in November so fuck it), and we scored an overpriced but dope bag for $50 last night in South Beach..  Condo we're staying in is free, we're going to watch the Pats & Dolphins play tomorrow afternoon, then chill in South Beach.  Fun time.  Wish more friends were down here with us it's super dope already and could only get better.

Sat in an oldschool chavelle with 26s last night, another great story, pics to come

That is a fucking sick shot!


I'm stoked that I FINALLY shot a self-portrait I am happy with today, after about a month of total failure.  Unfortunately I was lazy and didn't dust off the film before printing, and ended up with what are probably the worst dust spots I have ever seen.  I was also using two different filters when printing, and I forget which ones I ended up going with and for how long, but it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out.  Tomorrow I will achieve perfection, and then will turn in the ugliest, dirtiest self-portrait in the bunch!

Got to ski saturday, felt so good.

Left the mountain and sped back to school in time to catch the second half of the football game. We barely beat Arizona but fuck it, a win is a win and we are still alive. All we need to do is beat Oregon at home in the Civil War game this saturday and we go to THE FUCKING ROSE BOWL!!!!!

We would play Penn State and they fucking rolled us earlier in the season but I could care less, I just wanna road trip to Pasadena and watch some live football while under the influence.

And sorry Cottonwood, we might bump Utah out of the BCS bowls if we go to the Rose Bowl. No hard feelings :)

And I only have two days of school left before I get to go home for a long and much needed Thanskgiving break.

I am stoked.

Pretty sure we're guaranteed a BCS game at this point.  Also pretty sure we're ranked above you AND that we beat you.  So no hard feelings about that either :)

Stoked on hanging out with Billy for the weekend. We have a very good time together, and the sarcasm reaches all time highs. All I can say is that if we both end up at Tahoe people had better look out, and I fear for anyone who has to ride in a car with both of us.

Stoked on Under The Influence, the big mtn skiing makes every person throwing sw 10s and doubles look like toddlers messing around with a rocking horse.

Way stoked on all the skiing stoke in this thread.

Also stoked that I can now go to bed because I completed my paper on 2 books that I did not read. Altogether, I must say it is a real solid piece as well.

One more 10 pager I need to do tomorrow, and then I'm done with classes for a while.
