TRAVEL TRAVEL TRAVEL TRAVEL TRALEV RATLEV VETRAL LEVRAT

I know the depression thing, when you live a life of solitude it can come on pretty hard, for me about once a year. It usually comes on during times of transition. Traveling is the best cure when you're not too sure about where you are. Look into going abroad for a semester, you'll learn a lot more than book studies. I learned that i needed to drop out of school, one of the best decisions I've made to date (now i'm going back and actually have an idea of what i want to do). There is an American University in Prague that does an exchange with NYU... You can use student loans to travel europe, that's what I did...

Bump! New topic.

So I was in Syracuse a couple weeks ago with my brother to hang out for a day. I was playing Footbag on the corner right by the Suny College. A lady was taking pictures for The Daily Orange, a local paper. The pictures were not put into an issue, but they still came out pretty good. She sent them to me via email. I thought that you would all like to see them so here they are:

Superfly I think.

My best clipper ever.

My best flipside clipper ever.

Whirl.

My guess is I'm going for ducking something, but I'm not positive.

I thought they all came out well, and in very good quality too! I was lucky to be in the right spot at the right time to obtain these. Cheers for footbag! Peace!

Nice pictures Will. I liked the superfly one and the whirl one the best.

Were those the shorts you were shredding in or did you just not want to be in the newspaper with short shorts on?

pre-Happy Birthday

Your form looks sick as always. I totally dig the superfly one. Epic air!

Happy 19th birthday! About to hit the big two-oh.

I was shredding in those shorts, and it was really hot out. She caught me before I started pouring sweat.

So today I turned 19, I feel older and maybe its because on this day I actually take the time to stop and think about it so much. One thing I do know is that I can drink in toronto now, so I may have to make a trip there soon, watch out TOFU!!

I've been playing freestyle footbag for 4 years now, I love looking back on all the people i've met and everything involved with footbag. It gives me a blissful feeling inside. I think I have found my full appreciation of the sport.

Big things are to come for you and I and everyone.

Peace!

How many of you can say you called Will at 12:03 am to wish him happy birthday?

PS, I don't know if you remember, but you have had my Half-Blood Prince book for about a year now, and I was wondering if I could get that back.

Well here goes nothing, another stab at this whole footblog thing. It's been over a year since I last posted in here, and figured it was about due time I made another update.

*NEWS*

I just moved to Rochester yesterday from the Albany area. Matt Cross is my new roomate, unfucking believable eh?

Planning to do big things while I am in the area. Playing lots of Footbag, picking up stitching from one of the best stitchers out there, learning guitar. It's going to be a great year, i'm really stoked.

Got moved into my new room here yesterday, and then Paul Agostinelli came over to pick me up. We went and played some footbag at RIT and had an awesome session, considering both of us are way out of practice.

After that we ordered some pizza and wings, and Paul gave me a quick tour of the choice Bars and happening spots around town. Then we proceeded back to the apartment where we did what footbaggers do best...

We played with magnetic darts and practiced our freestyle dart tricks.

And also talked about footbag of course. Went to sleep around 3 a.m and slept very well in the new room.

Today I begin learning how to stitch, and perhaps some Sushi and Sake a bit later when Matt get's up.

Life is good!

Sounds like life is really good!

I recently moved to Copenhagen and I feel we are a bit in the same boat.

Exciting times for sure!

Glad you're back on here! Matt is one of the most genuine guys I know in footbag, props on getting such a good roommate! Have a fun time, and try not to mosh on the dance floor too much, buddy!

BTW... see you in December.

Will Digges · Post by **Will Digges** » 02 Nov 2009 12:21

It's too late, there was already moshing to be had on Halloween

you can't stop me im a party animal.

Rochester is awesome though, I'm having a blast! Been shredding almost everyday now and I'm starting to feel really healthy again.

Been off cigarettes for a couple months now, (well I've had a few here and there, but no longer smoke them constantly or buy them.)

Stitching a lot, and shred is coming back to me. Life is good

I'll see you at NYJ holly!!
