Yeah, like I've done a few grinds dude.

I bought a skateboard. For like, $20.

The guy said "yeah, like I've only done a few grinds on it dude, feel free to jump on it now and test it out". To which I strategically replied "nah man, the surface is kind of unreliable out here, I don't want to mess with the bearings".

He totally thought I was a real skateboarder.



So armed with my new "skatie", I head to the skate park. My mission: not to draw too much attention to myself.

But I'm the only white person there.
And I'm the only girl.

This 8 year old kid comes up to me and says "are you from Europe?".
So I stuck to the edges of the park.



Still maintaining my appearance to look like a skateboarder. The pro-skateboarding dream continues...
