man this has been such a sick trip.
you know, i really thought when i first got here that hanging out with certain people was gonna be stupid. and it kinda was the first night. but since then stuff has gotten hella better. we've done some of the typical stuff.. you know, the mall, the outlets. i've bought some pretty sweet hollister shirts, and a pair of board shorts. and i bought some SWEET slip on vans. haha.. "they're the best thing that's ever happened to me." of course we've done a little swimming, a little hot tubbing. and it's HELLA hot out here, no joke.
last week we went to the beach, just me and zack. it was hella cool. we brought one of their dogs, butterbean. it was so cool because we just got some chill time up at stinson. and we got to skimboard a lot. pretty much the whole time actually. we went again yesterday (tuesday), and this time we went with like 14 people or something like that. let's see.. we had me, zack, lily, anthony, jen, cory, aaron, jason, vona, vona's boyfriend, bry, and sophia. it was hella cool. again, went skimboarding like the whole time with zack. yeah pretty much, me and zack were the best at the beach, no lie. lily got some really cool pictures. and this time i hit some huge waves. it was awesome. i swear, i think hitting a wave has to be one of the best feelings on earth. the only sad part of the trip was the beginning of the ride home. we were riding towards the overlook on Highway 1 and we started listening to "California" by Phantom Planet. then we went to the overlook and there was beach and then ocean as far as the eye could see. i'm not gonna lie, it made me a little teary-eyed. because i knew that that would be the last time i'd be seeing a real beach for a long time. it's just.. sad. you know?
now i'm kinda coming to the end of my trip. and i'm not gonna lie, i'm getting kinda sad. but i won't let the affect the way i act on this trip, or the way i act when i get back home. i haven't forgotten that i've got an amazing life. i know there was a reason for moving to alaska. but that doesn't mean that i won't miss the warm, and the sun, and the ocean. and zack. and i'm not gonna lie.. i kinda miss vanden high too. way more than i'll ever miss eagle river high when i leave.
oh haha before i go.. i got sunburnt at the beach yesterday. but not enough to where i'm gonna lose my tan. SWEET.
