Tina says:

Henry says:

Tina says:

had an awesome session where i used both clippers! it felt so good, and i'm not toooo rusty.

some highlights

blurry whirl - blurry drifter - ps whirl - pdx drifter - pdx dlo - pigbeater midrun

fuckin toe shuffle and pdx dlos and eggs all over, all this toe drilling has made me better.

but at the end of the session my right knee just gave out, and i can't walk on it

its so funny because once i get over one injury, another comes.

i guess it came from not using so many different components for like... 2 months and then just busting loose in one session.

Nice... do all the financial aid stuff as early as possible too.
and apply for as many scholarships as you can ... ask pizza hut if they offer any scholarships

good luck!

Congrats on the flip double downs. The great thing is that DD's seem to be like riding a bike, once you get the hang of it they're so easy.

Hit blurriest - DDD - blurrier for me.

blurry whirl>blurry whirl>ripwalk>stepping whirl>infinity swirl>bubbabeater>pixie ss swirl

HG · Post by HG » 14 Nov 2007 16:27

ah. so college junk is out of the way. just sent in my acceptance forms to UW Madtown.

I volunteered for anssi's training program. he gave me a perfect set of things to work on. I thought it would only take me like... 20-30 minutes, but it ended up taking and hour and a half.

first session i've had where i feel like i made progress on A LOT of different concepts.

Congratulations Henry! Madison's a really good school and a nice city. I think you may have told me this before, but what are you planning on studying? Hey, maybe you'll find some people to footbag with at college. Or make some hackers cry.
