Yep, school starts next wednesday, so today was my last day out there. Except I'm gonna go out in a few weeks to mold some skis, and hopefully pop out every once in a while just to say hi and visit. Such an awesome experience!

And I officially own 12 pairs of skis now, hahahaha. And I wanna keep them all! :(

hahahaha, yep! These words are coming straight from my parents.

Aparently, only mexicans and asian kids tint their cars. haha

But yeah, the tint is perfect for me. Not very dark at all, but at certain angles its totally black.

how is snowboarding cheaper than skiing? other than the borrowing equipment part? I could probably sell you one of my pairs of skis.

for me, boarding would be more expensive because I would have to be paying for more hospital visits... I get hurt EVERYTIME i board...

Ours is a world where people don't know what they want and are willing to go through hell to get it.


My mind is blown but it's my own So deal with it I'm feeling fine most the time I may be on the outside but no one's getting in So leave me alone
I've got no strife I'm loving life Could you say the same You don't have to move to groove So come on up and see me but leave that judge behind 'Cause I'm loving life

well, snowboard's are cheaper than skis, skis are fucking expensive.. i dont even have boots! those are fuckin expensive too.. free board and bindings, all i have to buy is boots. i used to board for 4 or 5 years, and i got quite decent at it, so hospitals visits will hopefully be cut to a minimum.

umm...im gonna be coming out to bellingham a bunch this winter, ive got a bunch of friends that moved to b-ham, so ive got the excuse to come over :P

FujiFilm S5100 FinePix, it was very very cheap ($300 on amazon)

I was going to get a Canon Digital Rebel XT, cause I REALLY want a digital SLR, but at $1000 it just wasn't doable.

This still takes great pictures, better than my old camera (which was like $400 when I got it) and its got less stupid features (shit like special effects that I DON'T want) and it's black and more rubbery, where as my old one was all silver and bullshit.

i got my subs installed that i purchased from erich today. my rearview mirror vibrates so much when it hits that it moves, so i have to adjust it all the time. next is tint, then sway bar, then if i get a job maybe some suspension work. my back tires rub on the car when i have people in the back seat and i turn hard. i think its because my wheels are too wide.

find out what kind of wheels they are, what size, what offset, blah blah. then you'll know if you've got incorrect wheels on there.

how wide are your tires?

and yeah, mirror vibration/movement... something you'll grow very very used to. I miss those days, haha. (not)

how bad's your trunk rattle? god that's always so embarassing.

the autofocus on it sucks though, especially when you're in macro mode (as those shots were) it never focuses right. So you have to do it manual, which I prefer anyways, except the manual focus is SOOOO SLOW. I swear it probably takes a full minute to go from infinity to the closest, its rediculous.

My old camera could only go down to 200 for the ISO, this camera goes to 64, which is why the pictures are so fricking clear! I love it!
