I got into longboarding for the transportation, but I've always just used it to get to class. This is kind of a shame since I live in the city with the world's longest continuous sidewalk. How could I write a blog about longboarding and not take advantage of such an outing?
(Besides, I have to take pictures of buildings downtown for my architecture class and I could stop in the new Art Museum for my Japanese class.)
But all around me, I'm watching my classmates and my coworkers freak out over their course loads. I understand their pain. Especially with the strain of being IMITATION SAUSAGE POOR (it's gross. Trust me.) life can be really stressful for us college students, despite the media displays of partying with keggers and roofies. I wonder how long it'll be until they start making knock off brands of those. "Great Value Roofies! Only at Walmart~". But uh, anyway, it's pretty difficult to take time out to do the things that you enjoy when you always have deadlines looming, so, if I can use school as an excuse to check out my fair city in the first place, I'm completely down for this.
4.5 miles of uninterrupted concrete, my longboard, a great view of Tampa Bay, and my camera. I'm gonna hit up Bayshore Blvd, the Art Museum, and Moxie's Cafe, if everything goes according to plan.
It's important to have plans. If you follow them, you'll be accomplished. And if you don't, you'll be a rebel.
