"inertia"
-----------
i don't easily commit myself to things. not to say that i don't easily commit to them, i just simply lose interest too soon to really say that i had any heart in them. among those things are probably video games, studying, and the odd diet or two. so when i stay with something for a while, it's usually a good sign for things to come. right now, my current desire is to learn how to skateboard properly...and standing outside 7-11 like an idiot on a board receiving tutelage from someone who's done it right at 2 a.m. in the morning takes a lot of commitment. then again, seeing how my original intention was to make a jackass out of myself by bailing stupidly, i guess that i'm a lot better now than when i started. skateboiarding is for now, i guess...even if i only do know how to travel a metre without falling off.

but it goes to show you how exposure can just lead you to do stupid things...i mean, i've always been a tony hawk gamer and all, but i never really got into it...even when hannz gave me the skateboard, there was a slight itch to learn, but it was truly only watching bam margera make an idiot of himself on jackass and seeing how they had so much fun skating that it really did bite me. and that was earlier in the evening today. yesterday. whatever. so there. i'm going to ride on the bloody thing [even though it could use new trucks and new wheels] whenever i can, just to tell myself that it's worth it. i mean, hey, if it's there, why not use it, yea?

i guess that commiting to something is more than just getting a swift kick in the pants every now and then...it's all about getting a quick swift in the pants all the time.

amen.
