next week will be the best week of my summer, I'm sure.

a long awaited trip up to a cabin for a night of partying kicks off the week, followed by another party at my friends house, which usually doesn't happen. I'm thinking my new schneider pants will arrive sometime this next week THEN pitchfork and meeting up with some ct'ers in chi to end it all off i am so excited.

i also am photographing my friends mom's wedding this weekend for experience and getting dinner with my girl friend thing. super stoked on life right now.

It's not even 9am and I can hear loud construction and someone blasting "Only Girl in the World" outside. What is going on.

Talk to your grandparents if you can, their stories can be so so amazing.

I keep being reminded of really cool shit about my grandparents. My mums dad used to water-ski. Fair enough, he lives near the coast just outside of Lincolnshire and I know from my mum that he was an adventurous man in his youth.

I walk upstairs and this is on the landing:



He used to go out on WATER SKIS, not a board with 4 stools tied to his back. He used to stack them up on the skis whilst speeding along, loosely tying a piece of string through them (so that if he fell off they wouldn't float away separately) and climb up on top. The boat would then swing back towards the coast, where one of his mates would be stood holding a very long pole with a chair on the end which he would grab, place at the top of the wooden stool tower and climb onto to do stunts from. To top it all off, he used to do this whilst racing against other people!!

The most amazing thing is if I hadn't have asked him he would never have told me. My mum knew about it and thought we knew because a smaller version of that photo has been hung up around the house for a long time. I sort of knew, but never had all the details.

He said that once he fell off, hit some coral and broke his leg. He got himself bandaged up and then customised his push bike so that he could cycle without moving the broken leg and went to work like that every day for a month or so. No wonder half his bones from the waist down now set off metal detectors.

Went to my Italian friends house, this didn't really surprise me

[kyung]

[jrisk]

they're on top of the magazine pile so I can only assume it's bathroom reading material

[Syeknom]

I lived on those pizzas for the best part of a year, ugh

One more Grandpa story I've just heard over lunch:

Grandpa had a friend called Harry who he grew up with. When they were 16 they both went off to Lincolnshire from London to become apprentices to a well respected carpenter. They would cause all sorts of havoc, like sitting in the cathedral tower whilst on their lunch breaks flicking cherry pips at the people down on the market.

When they finished their apprenticeships they were both enlisted into the armed forces to do their national service. Grandpa and Harry were 21. By luck they were always put on the same assignments and seemed to run into each other everywhere they went. Over time, everything they did together became jovial competition. They would race each other around the airfields on bikes, try and out-do each other in shining their boots ect, pretty much everything.

This continued after they left the army too. They would very often head down to the pub which was just over the hills from the part of town where they both lived, have plenty to drink and still get home before 10. Its important to remember this is in the early 70s, before the days where if you had a bit to drink it crossed anyone's minds that it could be dangerous to drive.

One night, Harry decided to drive the 10 minute walk to the pub in his brand new car. As the evening went on, Grandpa became less and less impressed with his friends poor effort and gradually more jealous of his new purchase. This all came out when they left the pub (having had a lot to drink...) and Grandpa bet Harry a pint that he could beat his car to the top of the nearest hill.

Grandpa got no head start and they both set off full speed up to the top of the hill. The car won, but Grandpa insists it was only because he fell in a ditch in the dark.

DAE just not have any hobbies/"passions"?

I do lots of stuff that could be considered a hobby, but I almost feel like I do it just to do something. Meh. There's been nothing that I've encountered in life thus far that has thoroughly enthralled me.

[kewks]

i feel the same way too!!! is watching hours and hours of tv/netflix a hobby? or can it be considered a talent? hahaha. i do lots of things too that could be a hobby but i don't do it consistently enough

Have you guys tried chewing gum whilst taking a shower? It's pretty refreshing to say the least.

[chadnik]

makes sense that Ronald is a Ford guy, I guess

edit: I should add that after I took this, he pointed and laughed at me

Chewing really minty gum on a cold day and taking very large breaths in is also an enlightening experience.
