At the weekend! Who cares?

Well, the weekend started when I came back home from my job and I had to decide whether I would buy a skateboard deck or not. So I sat on my bed and checked the bank account and the future expenses in order to ensure that I would not have a tight budget at the end of the mouth, therefore after a plenty of calculations, I figure out that I could buy it then I ran towards the shop, by the time I got there, the store was with the lights off and closing, Fortunately there was a friend by chance buying a deck as well as I chose mine. After that my friend and I arrived at the Hyde Park where we usually skate with the others fellows who were impressed by my new skateboard deck, but it does not matter in a few days will be damaged again, we had a great time skating there.
Although I got up midday, it was an exciting day, firstly I cooked my lunch and went to meet the buddies, but in the way I met Tim who was going to check out a room nearby Taylor square indeed it was so funny when I look at him the other side of the street with the luggage on the skateboard and he pushing the skate so that we were to see the single room which was not so bad, I thought a bit dark and the house mates are weird, Despite of that, he liked it. I hope that he feels better now and begins a new life, because he has been really depressed at the last house and also he is unemployed. Later we took on the train from Museum station to Green square where the closest train station to Waterloo that I did not know is. I used to get off at Redfern which is really far from the Skate Park. In fact the reason to be at Waterloo was a tribute to Shane Cross who was died by a motorbike accident in Melbourne two year ago while Ali Boulala other professional skater as well was riding the motorbike. Neither of them were not wearing helmet and also Shane had a blood alcohol level of 18 while Boulala had a level of 162 (one hundred and sixty two) as consequence one died and other behind the bars. However at the Waterloo everybody was skating and enjoying and also Dustin Dullin bought a bunch of pizzas which ran out quickly.
Finally we came back to the City and spent a lot of time in the Hyde Park waiting for the parade which we did not watch, because there were a bunch of folks in our front and we were talking with other guys as well.
After the parade Tim went back home and I hung out with Caio who was my school mate six months ago. To begin with, Caio would like to drink beer, but I have not drunk for age in order to not feel my stomach in a good condition to drink as I did, Despite of He insisted on going to drinking all the time. So we went to walking around at Surry Hills, by the time we were coming back, two Australian women who were sitting on the stairs in front of the house called us and one of them got my skateboard and showed what she could do with the board. Honestly she was pretty good and said to us that when she was at around ten years old, she used to do it.
We were there for at least one hour and we went away when suddenly we had seen some guys running and heard they yelled, as a result we looked at back they were fighting and consequently one of the guys crumbled a beer bottle on the head of other one, but they were so unlucky that the two police cars were besides of them and they arrested half of the guys, meanwhile Caio and I were watching the cops action when a cop woman asked the arrested guy if we were his mates also and then the asshole said that we were, I thought he did not see us exactly in the dark street and said that.
For this reason the cop woman called us to come over there, but immediately I told her that we were just walking and it was clear that we did not know anyone. Finally she said just to get off from there. We stopped by Oxford Street in order to eat something. Although I thought the night was over, a friend of mine called me to meet her mates at the Hyde park nearby the Cathedral, by the time we got there, we laughed a lot, because everybody was drunk and some of them were falling asleep on the floor and other were making our night much more funny than we hoped. At the end some started crying and after that we were assisting with taking them at home. Caio had receive a call from a school mate, naturally we gave up to help the stubborn drunk guys to take home and our last spot of the day was Pyrmont where I saw how good is that house with a pool table in the living room, though we did not play, because it was at 4pm, who knows next time, that sounds good.
On Sunday rained and I was at home doing homework that pissed me off and others stuffs whole day until Leandro came over to copy some movies.
To sum up, it was a pretty cool week end, for sure that could be better, though I enjoy it as well as I could do it.
