So he had a spare frame/fork and set it up as a singlespeed with a rear brake for polo

Finally done!!!!

So last night was our B&W photo final at school. I helped all the students mat they're final prints and we all chatted it up, ate food, and had a grand old time. After all the students went home I talked to Jerry (my photo teacher whom I T.A. for) and he told me that I did a great job being his T.A. this semester and wants me back again for next semester. After hearing this I got so pumped! It made my whole evening. Not only that but I had time to make it down to Polo with all the homies.

I went and picked up Haley and the bikes. I had a slow leak in my front wheel so I pumped it up and it held for the rest of the night. We got there about an hour an a half after they started and by far there were so many people there. A lot of station heads who don't ride fixed but ride beefy ass MTB's were playing polo with us. It was legit! We had enough to play 5 on 5. So many crashes. So much bullshit. So much fun.
I made the 1st goal as well as the 2nd goal but we lost 3 to 5. It was super fun and next time the team i'm on will win. I also landed a bunch of 3 taps and slider 3 taps. I also landed a slider 3 tap wheelie into a 180 but it was super sketchy.

Also my frame has been cracking and my top tube is warped and cracked. So is my seat brake stay as well as other things. Rear wheel has a hop and is untrue, front wheel untrue, fork loose, BB axel slightly bent, cranks creaking, seat busted as fuck... left grip falling off FUCK!!! I need a Gorilla or a fucking Thrasher.
Enough ranting. I gotta get the photos from my bag up here to send to mike. I'll also take a few flicks of the dents in my frame too...

In the game of Tarck I took Robert out and had Dong Ho but he finally got me with a 900 keo to barspin. I did the 900 keo but did half a barspin...
So lame but it was fun either way

modulationaldatainserter...

So lately I haven't been doing much but working up in the lab helping students print photos and print my own shit. I need to dev. some rolls bad. But x-mas has tied my funds pretty hard. I've also been tricking it up as much as I can even tho i've been sick. I recently helped Tyler D finish making his own polo sticks and Sean finally finished mine. So we've been having late night polo sessions in the parking garage which have been a blast.
Also the shitty la fucks played a show at the grind with Jon L. (Bird Surgeon) and Hammer Horror Classics (Jeremey's band) which was fun. Oh Sleepers with Matt C. and Jon S. also played an amazing set. Hopefully I can trek it out to Pacifica soon to practice with the guys. I need to write some shit out. Have so much stuff jammin through my mind. Fuck life needs to take a breather and slow down.... Or I just need to speed up...
Printed Josh a few photos since he's been really sick lately. I'm really pullin for him and I'm glad he's comming to Colins hang out tonight. I miss him and really wanna kick it with him. I'm also going to give Colin for his birthday a cool photo I printed of him and Ty riding for his present. He's also going to drink for the first time tonight so well see how that goes. I should snapp a roll off tonight too hahaha.
Well I guess I got out everything but yeah... Soon the semester will be over for a few weeks and I can get a little more organized and hopefully repair my bike a little more. It's been holding up alright for a while now. but yeah... I need to fully get my 3 taps, fakie sliders into 3 taps and hop bars.

Oh and fuck my right middle finger for getting jammed super hard while landing one last night with scott who is also back which is rad cause now I don't have to trick it up alone so much.

Fuck... I gotta get it off my chest...

Confused...

This is a weird one. So I feel like I took a photo of this because I have multiples but I like this one the most. But I feel like I didn't take this exact photo. The Reason being if you look in the upper left hand corner of the photo. I think that's me standing on the other side of the vert wall. I have no clue who could have taken it too?
Any who... Andrew L. with a steezy one footer

Was taken at Red Morton when Ryan and his girl friend just got a new dog. His name was Cedric. By far the most beautiful dog i've ever seen. But that photo will be saved for another post of for the portfolio because it is by far one of my most fav. photos.

So we drove around late one night taking photos of each other up close and personal blinding each other with the flashes. This is one outside Pizza My heart and Timbo's playing with a knife or something. Always dug this photo

w a k i n g u p . . .

I woke up one morning in 2007 at my friend Chris Whiteside's house.
It was super early as I woke up to sunlight showering through his front room windows.
I had my camera on the floor next to me and took this photo of a vase and some flowers.
