Sureshot Demo 06.02.07

I joined my friend on a skateboard demo he was throwing. I didn't really expect to have a amazing time but I had the best time. We hung out and skated our asses off, Met some new friends, drank some beers, rode an ATV, hit some golf balls, played some pool and had some cake. It was unbelievable. that was the weekend I laughed for 24 hours...

Sleep is for the DEAD!!

Aaagh! what got into me? lets trace my footsteps and see if we can find out what happened.

10:00 am. Woke up to drink water and eat a little bit of my left over sandwich from Friday. The 2 drink rule has betrayed me again. The price I pay for good friends and to hear funny stories (I saw penguin stories with Ryan and his friend called "Sarge")

After the sandwich I went back to bed.

1:00 pm. I started to move... eat the rest of my "wich" and watched a little bit of the tube. Just to get jump started. "Going to the Movies" entered my mind.

2:30 pm. Decided to be productive, went to the studio with intentions to start a piece. That didn't work out as planned. Instead I sat around helped Owen put up drywall.. ate at a chinese buffet with Dave and procrastinated some more.

6:30 pm. Went home and chilled for a bit and headed to the movies....

7:10 pm. movie starts...

8:40 ? The movie ends. saw "The Boys Are Back". Good movie, sad at times but I am digging the emotional ride these past few weeks. There is also something nice about going to the movie solo. Something I discovered a few years ago.

9:00 pm Whats next? hmmm...

9:30 pm I realized how much time I wasted on checking my Facebook this past few days... it disturbed me.

10:00 pm bike is packed in the back of the truck Im headed for Hoboken... the mission begins... I think this is were it all went downhill...

11pm - 3:30 am This is what happened

Was it the Facebook? Was that the reason? It was a fun adventure no matter what, and hope to go and do it again before the freezing temps arrive.

I saw so many things that could not be documented in still frame... playing in the rain, in and out of traffic, almost got doored and ran over a few times (not that fun, I want to live), people watching at Times Square, hundreds of inebriated citizens everywhere... one girl was dead weight passed out on the path (hope she is alright) her boyfriend tried to carry her out of the train but it was just a mess, the end tail of a fight, oh lets not forget the assholes that just likes to yell at speeding cyclist :)... and girls having girls night out (I blame "Sex in the City"). Soundtrack for the night "silversun pickups: Carnavas" like that band.

Blasting through the city on a bicycle is super fun. Definitely worth the groggy feeling I am experiencing right now. I smiling through out the night.

"Sleep is for the DEAD"... its 1:34 pm and I feel dead.

In the beginning of my 6 month sabbatical, I started up Everywhereproject.com to keep my family and friends as part of the experience. The project is to see every thing, go every where, to learn as much as I can and to try my best to share the experience with everyone in my life during the 6 month hiatus. It sounds easy but trust me, it wasn't. The months came and went. What was supposed to be a 6 month project has now become more of a way of life. I realized that life just became better through the project. Hope you guys enjoy the way I see the world and thank you.

My name is Martin Luther Banez Bunyi and this is my project.
