All my life since I was four years old I really wanted a real skateboard. After looking foward to each holiday I was wondering when I was ever going to recieve a skateboard. So as the years went by I still didnt get one. On this particular christmas I had a feeling that I was going to get my skateboard this time. So I thought my mom was acting a little suspicious while wrapping all the presents because I Knew most of them were hidden. After I noticed most of them were hidden i had that idea of a skateboard being one of my gifts pop into my head.
I was six years old and it was christmas morning.I stayed up in anxiousness all christmas eve wondering what i was going to recieve this christmas.So I wake up to my very high pitch alarm clock at 8:00AM .First thing i did was go straight for the christmas tree to see what i got.I arrive at the tree at approximately 8:01 and im suprised and greeted with my first actual skateboard. All i could do was stand on it and instantly I felt the skateboard become a big part of my life.I was already outside riding it before anyone even woke up.
The reason I wanted a skateboard was because many of my family members rode skateboards while I was growing up. People that did encourage me were my cousins Joshua and Michael . Also my uncle Wade which owns Bloodline used to always take us to the skateparks and stuff to watch people skate and to just be in a skateboarding environment. He was actually the person who bought me my first Listen skateboard ,with spitfire wheels, abec 7 bearings and thunder trucks on it. I was happy to see that my uncle bought it for me because he knows what is good and whats not because he skates.
I was very happy and felt so much like it was never going to leave my side.And it never did and never will. to this day that board is still sitting in my shed.Skateboarding is always going to have its own spot in my brain and heart.
