So my internet is down at home again. I have been home a total of like 4 hours this whole week though (besides sleeping). So I haven't had a chance to look at it, or entirely move in. Haha, I still have many of my belongings in grocery bags.

Some good news though. I bought a digital camcorder. It seems pretty sweet too. Canon ZR500. Does anyone have this model and can give me some reviews? Second, can anyone hook me up with some editting software? I filmed one session with Jake Milofsky but I don't think we shredded our best. Expect video though. Expect much video!!!!

Today is my last day of my internship! Then I'll have 10 days to live the dream and then back to school for the summer semester. It's going to be C-razy! In like a half hour I have to do a footbag routine for like 200 people. Everyone at my work wants to see me kick and they even set up an official meeting on my last day. HAHA! It's going to be so fun.

Happy birthday bro :)

Windows Movie Maker is a great program to learn with, if you find you can't do everything you want with it later on there are always other options.

Yeah J, I'll be heading to Jersey for that shindig.

Well it's been quite a time since I updated this thing. I really fell out of the habit after I left the internship and went back to school. What to tell...

I managed to move, leave the real world (my internship) and return to academia, break hearts and my own, mend one, lift some weights, hit footbag tricks, run some miles, bike, and spread footbag across the oceans and across the business world...and this is just an everyday thing :lol: .

I've still been kicking hard and working out. I discovered that swimming is a hard ass work out. Haha, I thought I was in pretty good shape and I could just jump right into it. But between my terrible form and lack of experience, I sunk like a rock and was getting pwned by like 40 year olds. HAHA!!

The biggest news is the deal I just got with Nestle Co. I'm doing two shows with their nationwide tour to market a new bottled water they're making. I probably could have wheeled and dealed my way into a few more shows but I didn't want to miss too much class.

July 13th - Harrisburg
July 15th - Boalsburg

So I'll probably seek out some place I can crash at State College, Pa or something for the 13th and 14th. It's a pretty sweet deal. They're paying me good and it seems like a tremendous opportunity for myself and footbag in general, as far as sponsorship goes. It should be real fun.

DUDE!!!

props on the dealie with Nestle Co. :!:
That is awesome.
So, when you say deal, you mean you are going to be shredding and promoting their product right?

Good to see you finally wrote in you blog. You know how I worry about Caleb. :roll:

Love,

So I want to apologize to anyone I didn't say goodbye to at Jersey Spike and Shred. Or anyone I gave a brief goodbye to. I hurt my foot on that monster sidewalk crack and just really wanted to go home. Plus, I have a hard time admitting to injury. So I left early. I ended up with a stress fracture on my left foot.

Don't anyone worry. I'll be shredding hard at the Steel City Shred Off so I'd better see some friendly faces from far away places. :lol:
