September Goal: Ollie on a skateboard

What I wanted: Converse

I've seen "Life of Ryan" on MTV, listened to Avril Lavigne's "sk8rboi", and owned a pair of Converse sneakers once. Er...wait. Were those Converse?? Oh, right. Mom told me they were "Converse-like," and I ended up with these wretched black pleather sneakers that weren't even Vickers School gym approved due to those pesky black soles. LA Gear. Fail. Anyways, my point is that I'm ready to skateboard. Bring it on.

What I got: La Gear

To Do List:
1) Buy Converse sneakers. The real kind.
2) Find skateboarding coach
3) Get skateboard
4) Figure out what the h an ollie is

Stay tuned...
