So yesterday i went to my friend's show at Wright College. He just got back from china so it was cool to see him, and it always good to see Kirby. Got home and i was just sitting around until i got a phone call from the Marines. The guy asked me a bunch of questions and then he asked me what a was doing. I was like "uhhhhhhhhmmmmm... i have to go to this nursing home to get some service hours for school(I am suppose to go today)." Then the guy was like "you can get service hours if you come to our recruitment center and help out". I was like "Really? so i can come in and get service hours, blah, blah, blah" Then this guy asked me if i want to be picked up! I wasnt sure what to say.

He just called again and asked me if i wanted to be picked up again! I probably will get my service hours done there cause the nursing home's farther.

Okay, played footbag yesterday w/Zeke, Tom, Nathan, Reile, Jake, and Josh at Welles for 3 hours. Played 4(maybe 5) games of squares. I won 2. I almost forgot how fun 4s is when your mind is focused. Freestyled after. I hit torque but fumbled the hand catch, I wonder how it looked. I'm going to start filming some more footbag soon. I also have to shoot 5.5 more rolls of film for school. Excited for the Simpson's movie today! I hope George got me a ticket.

the recruitment office will say and do much do get you near them. Don't think for one second they just want you to do service hours. They want you to sign up, and they will pressure you to do so when you're there. Some of the best salesmen out there. Watch yo back. Unless you want to be a marine that is.

They need to kiss some major ass for me to join.

Went to Dunkin Donuts for a free donut then to the Marine recruitment center today at around 10 30. Went inside and talked to some of the guys there. Then i was put into a room and to a 30min test. The guy said i did pretty high on the test, and we talked for like an hour. After I was supposed to help this kid who was in my History class paint this thing but he said he didnt need my help so i just typed tons of names and phone numbers into excel and this list maker program for a good 4 hours. So i got 5 and a half service hours today. Only like 20 more to go. Some of the guys in the office that i was working in went to Hot Doug's to pick stuff up for togo which is pretty fucken awesome. Every other friday and every half day i get a bunch of people together and we also go to Hot Doug's after school. Best Dogs ever!

Got home, ate a late lunch/early dinner, did some stuff and headed out to play some net with Josh. Man, we are seriously the best net players on this planet! Then all these people came outta nowhere and it was a full out freestyle jam. It was Me, Josh, Nathan, KAMIL, Tom, MEINARD, and Abe. Played for almost 4.5 hours of net and freestyle total. I feel like i'm getting worse at freestyle. I drop easy shit too much and i've sacrificed my good step for a flip stepping set. Ugh, so frustrating. I'm just gunna do guilt drills like crazy tomorrow. Maybe a challenge?

Someone give me a challenge. Like 2-5 trick combos, drills are okay too, limit three per person. Void where prohibited.

How can you be sure that it was your suggestion first when no one communicates with you?

xXLoss_of_ControlXx · Post by **xXLoss_of_ControlXx** » 03 Aug 2007 06:00

-Stepping mirage, for Tom
-Butter>Whirl>rpt into a 15+ string

Great Scot! You're a 208 stepping mirage machine.

xXLoss_of_ControlXx · Post by **xXLoss_of_ControlXx** » 03 Aug 2007 21:43

Wow, i just typed "Nathan w/ session"... glad i caught it.

Anyways, sessioned w/ Nathan.

I felt Nathan's frustration with his drills, even though i don't have 18+ contact drills i have certain days where nothing clicks. Today wasn't really one of them.

-I usually try to hit butterfly x10 at the start of a session to warm up and it takes many attempts. took me like 3 tries, and i got to 12
-butter>whirl>rpt into a string(took me less attempts than yesterday)
-dyno>dyno
-whirl>ripwalk
-footed ripwalk b2b
-felt close to blurry whirl only tried it about 5 times
-osis x18(new record, not sure if thats the right number)
-butter>diving clip>rpt 2nd or 3rd try

After Nathan stopped drilling he went crazy. Pdx mirage>symp mirage BS(first time each side!), two tries to hit smear>ducking butter, lots of other stuff like that that shows how consistent hes getting, even if he doesnt try those combos every session.

I squatted 50lbs in 4 sets of 25 when i got home. Haven't done pushups in so long, managed 3 sets of 10. I need to start lifting again and keep it up for as long as possible. My upper body's getting weak.

I'm leaving sunday morning! See y'all in 2 weeks!

stay outta trouble

So i havent kicked in 2 whole weeks, not counting the hacking at rest stops to and from Florida. I'm not going to do a write up here cause i'm doing it on facebook.

My only day at world's: It was a good 98 degrees out. I walked to the gate after getting dropped off at the sport's complex at Disney and before i said anything the old man at the gate next to the turnstiles told me to walk down the stairs and i'll see it on my left. So i did as I was told and it was a football field scattered with people in the stands and a bunch of Tampa Bay Buccaneers standing around in the shade with all their gear on. So i walk back and i told the guy i was there for "Footbag, FOOT-B-A-G". He told me it was his first day back and i really didnt give a shit cause I had a backpack with me and it was fucken hot and sunny. So he asked around and i saw from a distance three guys(think one of em was a girl) with Lavers on so i asked them. I found out that it was too hot out so they delayed the net competitions. So i spent around an hour or 2 indoors helping a net player(?) from NJ(forgot his name) measure, cut, and assemble PVC pipes to support like 30 footbag banners. Then Steve Goldberg came in and was like, "hey Freddy, remember me? I kicked your ass at 4s". Eventually i went over to the Milk House cause i was told Kolo was over there. Talked to Kolo who was watching kids play basketball. He said that they were holding circle comp later on, but i wouldnt be there long enough. Took a picture of his hair cut, supposed to show it to Zeke but i still have to shoot the rest of the roll and develop it.

That was my time at World's. Sucks eh?

Props on that move you hit yesterday, with the blurry and the whirling and the hey there!

(Not sure if you wanted to post that first or not - well, too bad now, sucka!)

This weather fucking sucks dick, homey.

xXLoss_of_ControlXx · Post by **xXLoss_of_ControlXx** » 20 Aug 2007 13:26

Shit i totally forgot.

New trick: Blurry Whirl

I think i'm going to head over to independence later and ask the people who work there about an indoor spot for winter/rainy days.

Holy shitballs!

Its been raining everyday since Sunday here! My backyard is starting to flood. My heart rate was just raised by lighting that was too close, the thunder just rattled the shit outta my window fan!

So far i have played on Tuesday for 2:45 and Wednesday for less than and hour cause the rain started up. Played behind my garage ay like 9(?), iunno it was before the rain started. Only worked on butter>diving clipper[rpt] got to 10 contacts of it. Then closed out the session with Mirage>legover>rpt>mirage>pickup>rpt>butter>pickup>rpt>clipper>ducking clipper>ducking clipper>osis>osis>diving clipper>osis>far legover>pixie ss clipper>whirl>osis>ripwalk>footed ripwalk. It started to rain after that last osis.

Ended up doing like 10 sets of 2 pullups in the rain and my lats are still sore, then went inside and did 30 wide pushups, 30 almost diamond pushups(finger tips are few inches apart), 3 sets of 15 dips, 3 sets of 1minute supermans, curled 30lb barbell x50 to get the blood flowing, then put various weights into an old/small back pack, attached it on the bar, and curled that in 3 sets of 25 it was probably around 45-55lbs, then squatted it 4 sets of 25. The workout wasn't listed in the correct order.

That shit was so bootleg. They renovated my school's weight room, so thats one plus of going to school. Haven't lifted with proper equipment in over 2 months, last time my bench was at 215, cleans were at 195, and i would do squats in sets of 225, but i had only started lifting in February. Gotta get on that shit

crazylegs32 · Post by **crazylegs32** » 23 Aug 2007 23:24

If Freddie and Nathan werent mey suggestion when I nominated them over a year ago then who voted no on them?
