last (but certainly not least) surf sesh

Headed out for our last surf sesh of the semester. 
This semester has rocked. Academically it's been a tough one to get through...but there have been so many ups! For example, I bought my first wetsuit (yahhooo!), I stood up on quite a few waves, I was able to spend ample time at the beach (newps, el porto, huntington), bonded with my fellow surfers (nati, liana, sarah, melissa, etc) and basically just had a blast in God's creation. I can feel myself getting more and more confident each time I head out....and I know that it's all about practice. I cannot get any better sitting on the shore. I have to dive in. Our last surf sesh was chill...hopped on a few waves and tried to catch some actually waves (not just white water). At times it was hard, staying balanced and making sure I popped up at the right time. I will say that I'm getting a better feel for the water and the power behind the waves. Lucky for me, I have awesome friends that support me and push me and make surfing a bast. My goals for this summer are to try and find some people back home to surf with. As of right now, the only people I know are my uncle and his friends (who are all like 50+) and surf at like 5am. dawn partrolllll! So im hoping to track down some friend my age to help me continue on my surfing goals. Its only been a semester and I can feel myself getting used to the water....so I can only imagine what another 5...10...20 years of this will do!!

shakkaa abrahhhh.
