What an awesome/gnarly/busy weekend!
- had my first real interview at a real company with real art directors in new york city and it was a real positive experience (!)
- explored Brooklyn on my own two feet
- finally got out the
Fool's Gold office in Williamsburg to hang out with
my brother and met
Dust La Rock, he's super nice and super talented!
- Walked allllllll the way from Metropolitan and Lorimer to River Street to get to
Mollusk Surf Shop, which was a really rad experience. I mean walking was walking, but it was great to get finally get out the shop. I've been reading
the blog since I discovered it at the beginning of the semester, and all the dudes who were there were so friendly and knowledgeable. I hung out with them for a while, read the Leroy Grannis book, asked questions (in all my years of coastal living I'd never seen a
swallowtail board , maybe I just wasn't paying attention, and was baffled when I saw them on the blog all the time, of course I inquired), and enjoyed an afternoon beer. Their hospitality was really refreshing, thanks guys! It was real surreal to walk out of the shop onto a deck and then back into the city, not onto a boardwalk.
- Attempted to find the
Cinders Gallery, but failed, I'm probably just goofy and walked right in front of it
- saw some good friends
- hung out with my parents and genuinely enjoyed their company
- suffered from car failure on the highway and did not make it to family easter, but still managed to have a good time
- got up at 4:30 this morning to catch the 5:58 train back to baltimore, and have been going all day since
OH! I FINALLY bought
Big Wednesday at Mollusk -- total win.
