Behnaz Diaz!

Yo! I´m just chilling at an Internet cafe in Barcelona at the moment! It´s pretty amazing here! The weather has been so hot for the last couple of days, but I am happily putting up with it. We have skated a few spots so far, and spent a fair amount of time chilling on the beach. On the first night we got really fucked, carved a face into a water melon, and threw it out of our 6 storey apartment... Sick! Anyway I haven´t got long left on this computer, but I thought I´d stick a quick update regarding my travels on here. I´ll try and upload some photos next time I´m on here. Hope everyone at home is doing well! X

Hello! I never got round to putting up the pics from Barcelona! So here are some of my favourites, along with Shicken's edit of the trip. Watch us shave his head at the end! And check the photos of the water melon we carved... Then the ten metre blast radius it made when we threw off our apartment roof! X

The edit!

SUMMER

Hello!
Fuck, it's actually been ages since I updated this thing... I don't know why I never do it anymore? Anyway, as you can probably guess from this post's title, it's finally summer! And it's been a pretty busy one so far, with lots of the usual parties, adventures, chilling, good times, etc.

I can't really remember much of what happened in June... Except a couple of parties and a Barbecue round Emma's. So I might as well inform you of July's goings-on: The first weekend of the month was spent in Bournemouth! It's become an annual tradition to head down to the coast and get fucked for the weekend, so in fine form Edel, Aaron, Danielle, Elliot, Caleb, Big K and Myself drove down south in a convoy. We booked into a cheap hotel and spent the first night getting very inebriated on the beach until the early hours. Danielle, Edel, Big K and I were sharing a room so we dragged all the beds together and fell asleep watching 'Flight of the Conchords' on Edel's portable DVD player. On Saturday morning we woke up to rain which was pretty depressing, but by lunch time it had dried up and the sun was out. We got a nice breakfast at the cafe round the corner then headed down to the beach. We swam pretty much all day and had some pretty sweet fights in the sea! That night some of us went to town, but Caleb, K and I decided to just go for a walk because we couldn't be bothered with it. We met up with the others later, by which time we were all pretty crunk. The town wasn't very good so we headed back and slept. On Sunday we all went back down to the beach pretty early but pretty much everyone was up for going back because they wanted to go to the cinema. Me and Edel stayed for a few more hours n the beach and bought some food, which was nice! The ride back was pretty long, but we managed to get to the cinema in time to see...

Public Enemies! Which wasn't half as good as it could have been. A film staring Christian Bale and Johnny Depp has the potential to be amazing, but it was let down by Micheal Mann's poor directing, cinematography and lack of character development! It should have been more like 'American Gangster'. Oh well.

Not too much has happened in the last week apart from a fair bit of skating and going to Milton Keynes to see mates there. I'm off to BARCELONA on Saturday (which I'm very excited about), so I bought a new deck and some wheels + bearings for my board whilst in MK. I'll try and post something before I fly out this weekend, and hopefully I'll be able to keep you all informed of my antics out there if I find an Internet cafe... Anyway, I better get back to packing! Peace X
