Saturday Is Candy Night by Frenchy Rene

Did a little skating last Sat. Reyn, Russ, Ben and I raced down Broadway from 116th (Columbia Univ.) to Battery Point. The race begins at 116th street/Broadway in Harlem and finishes at Bowling Green in the Financial District 8.2 miles south. It took the winner about 30 mins to get there. We doubled his time. About 300 longboarders took to the street and disrupted the flow of Manhattan traffic. No injuries...and yes mother I wore my helmet.

Mom and Yoga

This was taken in Santa Barbara over the 2008 thanksgiving Holiday. Mother was showing myself and Janelle her stretching skills. It was the hands and arms that dove into the stretch that struck me funny.

New York City

First off I have no pictures to show or document my activities. In the packing of my things I left them behind to retrieve another day. For that i opologize.

I have started school and find it enjoyable. I love the NYU campus and find both staff and faculty pleasant and kind thus far. I work three days a week in the Bronx. It is a 90min commute each way on public transportation. I do a lot of reading and on accasion cat nap. I like those that I work with. I work as a case worker on the side of prevention dealing with families with children. Untill I receive some training I will continue to read and study on the job. I live in a one bedroom apt with a roommate. I sleep in the room as he has taken refuge in the living room. i don't find myself home unless I'm sleeping.

My top five activities/moments thus far in NY...

1- Attending the Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory sing along. They played the movie with subtitles and the audience sang along to every song. Unfortunately no dancing. "I got a Golden Ticket!"

2- Spitting on a subway rat. My abilities amaze myself at times. I just need to punt a pidgen and shoot a cockroach to complete the cycle.

3- The combined instances that I've interacted with street bums. They are always willing to give me advice or compliment me on my beard.

4- Spending a weekend with Diane and friends in a lighthouse on the Hudson. I was mad that we had to leave. I consider myself green though I enjoyed the burning of coal to keep us warm through the night.

5- Pizza. I think I have at least one daily. Its so easy and convenient.
