My friends and I started skateboarding again last summer. Our crew is called Celebrity Hot Tub. Here’s a very romantic, short version of our video Learn Your ABD’s, lovingly edited by Kyle Thomas. I don’t skate much in it because I’m the worst. I really like the SNL style closeups at the end. We are such good friends.

Long version coming soon. I need to film more tricks this year.

Sometimes people ask me what I want to do with my schooling. About 11 minutes into this documentary they start showing some examples of neat projects people have done. There’s also a good explanation about the whole DIY, Open Source Hardware movement. This is the sort of thing I get excited about.

I’m going to New York city during fashion week. I’m very excited about that.

When I was in Paris during fashion week everyone would give me their card or ask if I had a card I could give them. So this time I want to have a card ready, you know, for social climbing purposes.

I also noticed that people’s job titles tended to be somewhat aspirational. If you want to be a stylist, you put stylist on your card. Now the question is: What is my job title?

Do I go for something funny? Something technical-sounding which will convince girls that I’m smart? Something accurate?

Some options I’m considering:

Actor
Entertainer
Vlogger
Computer Scientist
Electronic Engineer
Inventor
Hair Model

I haven’t even thought about the graphic design yet. Any tips?

Not pictured: Me making an uncharacteristic embarrassment of myself at the fire at the end of the video. There was vomit.

Did I get first-blogging-props on this one? I expect all the cool kids to like it.
I dedicate the Gainsbourg half to Rebecca Budyk and the Beck half to Lauren Sellen. They’re small girls but big fans.
