i bought my first skateboard a few weeks ago.

i decided to build a custom and i'm definitely glad that i did. getting to say that i made it myself is pretty damn cool & getting to know how everything works a little bit better was also a good idea. the deck was already a little scraped from travel & i placed my grip tape wrong and had to improvise (which on another day might have made me pretty upset) but i managed to move past it since i remembered that they're literally made to get roughed up one way or another.

start to finish it took roughly an hour and a half, which is actually kind of impressive for me considering i often take days-weeks to finish a lot of my projects.
the lighting in this video is a bit off and we all just need to ignore how embarrassing my facial expressions can get when i'm super focused on things, but i'm pretty proud of myself & i suck at ever really admitting that.

i've been learning to skate for the past little while now & i've enjoyed it more than i even thought i could. for over a month, i'd been struggling a lot (more than usual) and was really needing to find something that i could care about. i'd been really going through it and couldn't even manage to listen to music anymore which was the absolute worst..

but then i went skating.

as unexpected as it was, it's given me a little something to look forward to and it's also made it possible for me to listen to music again. of course due to low self confidence i've been fighting with my own brain to try and feel like i'm capable of doing well at it, but so far i've been winning. *knocks on wood*

nothing has been more helpful for me lately than throwing on a playlist and going to fck around on my skateboard.
as surprising as it is, i'm here for it and i'm really glad that i found it.

I always find it interesting how much i miss being in Iceland considering how much i generally can't stand the cold.
It definitely could have been a much warmer trip but that didn't even bother me. It was pretty hard to be bothered when everything looked so damn beautiful all the time.

as we're all well aware, everything going on in the world has forced so many plans to change this year. and personally, i've found that really hard to deal with.
one of my favorite things in the world is music, and even more than that: getting to see my favorite artists live. going to concerts is by far one of my favorite experiences. so of course when i heard that my favorite artist (that i had still yet to see live) was going to be touring near me - you know i had to go.
i was so excited and i bought a ticket & a vip package right away. i'd been feeling so depressed before this & i knew that this would be something that i could have to look forward to & that thought was getting me through the days...
but then, of course the tour was cancelled and i won't be able to see them live until probably 2022, which was pretty devastating. but at the same time will give me something great to look forward to & to keep me going through all of this uncertainty.
this is the first piece of @nothingnowhere merch i've been able to buy since it was released the month i got my ticket refunded. now every time i wear it it's kinda like a reminder that i just gotta get through all of this mess cause there's gonna be a kickass n,n. tour when this is all over - and you best believe i'm gonna be there to mosh & scream til i burst a lung. by @kel.schil
