My summer is finally turning around! Simon's here visiting and we are having a blast - we even went wakeboarding!

So, summer vacation is just about over. I'm heading back today after two weeks of hangin' out in California.

I fell asleep in math class today and dreamed I was making out with that chick I met at the Warped Tour.

My dad took me and my brother to see the Lions game on Sunday. I'm not sure what their problem is but the Lions always suck.

So, I finally got a hold of that cutie Rachel who I met at the Warped Tour. I phoned her up and we talked for almost an hour.

Rachel and I spent the afternoon at the mall shopping for Halloween costumes. I think I'm going to dress up as a zombie or Frankenstein.

I've decided I'm going to be the next Jackie Chan. I'm learning karate so I can be a martial arts master.

I've got a new best friend. My parents got me a dog last week and it hasn't taken him long to make his mark.

I'm creating martial arts mayhem on a weekly basis now. I've already learned a ton of cool moves.

I can't believe it's already December. Before we know it, its going to be 2005 and then it's practically summer.

Well, I'm done with girls for a while. Remember that cute girl Rachel who I, really, really liked? We broke up.

After two weeks of sleeping in and playing video games, who wants to go back to annoying teachers and boring classes?

It's been a little weird at school cuz A.J. made some new friends over the break and she's completely ignoring me!

Karate is only supposed to be for self-defense but if my brother starts to bug me, I won't be afraid to give him an introduction to martial arts.

My friend Josh got expelled last week and is going to have to find a new place to go to class. I couldn't believe it.

I had a bit of a surprise on Valentine's Day. I ran into Kara and talked to her for the first time in months.

I was talking to Kara in the cafeteria yesterday and when I tried to kiss her, she totally blew me off!

I've decided to stop worrying about girls and concentrate way more on skateboarding instead. Fingers crossed I can get a sponsorship!

I was attempting a rail slide at the skatepark on the weekend and bailed big time. I lost my footing and landed hard on my butt.

Sindy came out to visit me for spring break. We hung out at the skate park all week and she tried to hook up with my friend.

If I could just become a pro skateboarder, I could ditch school and wouldn't have to worry about anything else.

My pro skateboarding dreams are one step closer to reality. I skated in my first competition on the weekend.

I told Trick to stop talking to Sindy, since I know he's kinda bad news and he's never going to visit her.

I'm having a major freakout about final exams right now. If I don't pass I'm going to be hanging out at summer school again.

School's done and summer has arrived! No more teachers, no more tests. It's time to party.

I'm now on a summer job hunt, thanks to my mom, who thinks I should be spending my entire summer working.

My summer of relaxation and chilling out has come to an end. I've just got a job at a sporting goods store.

I feel like I've been living inside an oven for the past two weeks. It's been so stinking hot this summer.

I've just come back from my first outdoor adventure of the summer. My brother and I went hiking with my dog Ralph.

I've never been a big fan of going to school, but there are some things about this time of year I'm pretty stoked about.
