I think the flashiness of a new city is starting to wear off on me already. I like it here, I do, but it's not exactly what I thought it would be. One thing I was stoked about was possibly meeting more kids that are edge and who take it seriously like I do, but I've been to more "parties" than I've hung out with edge kids.

A few days ago I read an interview with Pat Flynn. It was a really good interview that I just wanted to share. It helped me gain even more respect for him. I was obviously bummed about the break up just like any other fan but the interview brought contentment with it. I'm just stoked about the 7" that I didn't know about.

Also, listening to him talk about straight edge made me proud to feel very similar. Obviously, not exactly the same for reasoning. Every person has their reasons. But I feel happy that some people take it seriously.
