(Obama drinking song cheer, DC)YO YO YO. AHH it's been an extreme amount of time since I've written something. Where to begin eh? Lets start when I was back in the Oregon, hmm lets start when I was drivin' down to Eugene w/ Ran Man to crash at our homie's house.. oh wait, we stoped at OSU first in Corvallis. That was a nice night, saw a bunch of old homies like Zach, Vinny, Tony Baker, Ryan, Zach S, Lang, and many more..ended up crashin on the floor of some nasty ass house but it was all groovy, added a nice touch to the 'on the road' life that I'd totally choose over anything. The next day we got some breakky burritos at La Conga, n bounced to Eugene to Baker's lil place. Hes got one smelly and another creep old ass roomie, but Parr is the man. anyways, that first night we hit it hard.. i think. Ended up goin to this partayyyy n then the cops came la dee da dee da... the important part is that I saw heaps of old friends and I love every one of them. I even made new friends and hope to see them a gain some day soon! I loveeee making new friends. Hmm, the next day we hiked to the top of some butte and i guess Bakes picked up some poison oak aha the next day after I left. Poor guy. Anyways, it was a great successful college trip and I'm glad to had seen all the Brothas n Sistas from the OG.
ANYWAYSSS, a coupld days later my sister and I flew to DC a week before the inauguration of President Barack Obama. It was amazing. I wish I had longer to write about it but I'll summerize it quick. Everybody was in a great mood. Happy, the city was amazing. Totally blew away the stereotypes I had in my mind. We first crashed at this really nice house, went sight seeing the next day, which was the coldest day in DC in 5 years, i think it got down to like 8 that day. AHh but we're troopers. During that lil day we had a personal concert w/ shakira, stevie wonder, and usher whom were rehearsing for the inaugural concert a few days later. It was amaze. That week we ended up crashing at my sister's friend from college's group home in Columbia Hights DC. It was amazing and the people in the house rocked. Everybody was real. down to earth. special. I loved it. and there was always goodness in the air. Real house parties, w cool artsy things all around were the main thing around Colum.
Hts. Loved em. Met SOOO many cool people who had good stories and great music. ahh. my fav. anyways, we went to the inaug concert all together, twas a blur. amazing tho, in the mists of millions of other fellow new born citizens. Many cool artists including James Taylor, Stevie Wonder, and Bruce Springsteen were all there. Couple days later, after hittin up some sweet DC bars w/ happy people everywhere and sleepin on the couch, we woke up early to join the masses for the inauguration. Twas an experience to remember. We started walking at like 630 with thousands of others. The metro was packed. We only made it to the middle of the mall...Halfway between the capitol and the washington monument, but it was amazing. Millions of people surrounded us and I could feel the good vibes and energy surrounding me. I loved every minute, regardless how efing cold it was outside, of the inauguration. When bush was shown walking on the jumboscreens (jumbotrons), the crowd gave him a nice na na nana hey hey good bye. .. same w/ chaney. Ahh finally Barack was sworn in and everybody freaked it was awesome. Leaving the place was madness! millions of people crowding the streets trying to get home. I dont even know how we got back. Took hrs. We were like sardines the whole time... but it was awesome. never once did I see any angry or mean people. Awesome time. Early the next morning we flew back to Oregon, I packed for school, and drove down to Santa Clara the next day (on my way to SD). We hung out w/ my sister's friends n then I hit the sack for the big drive the next morning. Soooo I finally made it to SD, got things situated in the new house and everythings just efing GROOVY! I love our new place and I encourage all who wishes to to come and visit me/ crash on my futon. anyways, I just bought a drum set yesterday and hope to start somethin up w/ JP and Andy. We'll see how things go!.. anyweays, I gotta hit the hay.. take care all yall. peace
