I.L.E. to the fullest! just an inside joke between me, brother arwin and broseph nier.... Anyway, this is pretty much what this update's gonna be about...My lil shopping spree and the new things that i've spoiled myself with =D
It all started a couple weeks ago, the week of the 15th. I was at school and bored as hell. So i was just browsing the internet, and saw an article that the new NBA team for Oklahoma City will be called the OKC "Thunder." After reading this, this made me realize that Seattle Sonics apparel would probably be hard to find/be more valuable since they don't exist anymore. So as bored as i was, i decided to look for a sonics jersey. I ended up ordering a kevin durant swingman which was originally $75 but went down to $55...the next day, i told my buddy ken about it and he mentioned about getting an older one. And i thought about it, and i figured that older jersey's would be much better than coppin a new sonic jersey. So i cancelled my durant jersey and looked for a Ray Allen Jersey. Unfortunately, no luck. So i looked for Shawn Kemp, and lucky enough there were a few on sale on ebay; and cheap! I've never used ebay before. So i hit up my professional ebay friends for advice, and they skooled me on a technique called "sniping." And luckily enough, by the time the bid was going to end, with only 5 secs. left i was able to snipe the jersey and won an item on ebay for the 1st time! Here it is, copped on Sept. 18
During that same week, i was also looking through Sole Collector for a backpack, preferably a Supreme Backpack. There were a couple good ones. I even saw brother arwins post for his bag. But there was this bright green one that caught my eye. He was only selling it for $150 and i new that was a good deal since they usually retail for $150. So easily enough, I juss offered $155 shipped and paid with paypal. Copped on Sept. 20.
The next week was FASA's 1st semester party. It was called "mobster's ball" and i was thinking
of what i was going to wear. I was originally supposed to rock red, (which i should've since EVERYONE wore black n white) but for some reason I really wanted to get a pair of chucks. Someone once told me, that you can't say your from cali, and not have a pair of chucks. This kinna stuck with me for a while, so i made up my mind to get them. That thursday, I got paid and me & ken went to premium outlets. We checked the converse store and they were $45! I was expecting around 30 or 35, so i actually dint cop. But instead, me and ken also stopped by the True Religion store where we both copped some Trues for $89! Copped on Sept. 25.
"Nathans"
The next day, was the day of the party. And I was getting ready to just use my blk/wht
vans with my outfit. But luckily, Merv just happened to open at his work and was able to meet me at the Belz outlets to hook me up wit my 1st pair of chucks! After the transaction, i went down to nike just to check it out. Little did i know that one of the retro-ed nikes that i've been hella wanting have made it to the outlet! FINALLY i copped some zoom flight 95s after last seeing them in the 2nd/3rd grade! Copped 2 pairs of kicks Sept. 26.
(pic taken after i rocked em. lol)
Ahh, now i kinna know how arwin felt when he got his pips n pennys;
But now i'm juss waiting on the nike garnett IIIs in white!!!
Nike Flight
So the party was good and i felt hella good rockin my chucks, feelin hella LEFT COAST. lol.
That sunday, i was just doing the normal, chillin and watchin TV. On MTV2 there were re-runs
of "Life of Ryan," a reality show about the pro-skater Ryan Sheckler. In the episodes i was watchin, ryan was rockin his personally designed oakley frogskins. I actually saw a guy in school rockin em, and i wanted them since. So to see em on TV so many times, made me want them more. I checked ebay and there were a couple ending within the next 2 days. One was at about $100 and the other was at $76. The bids would end on tuesday at 9am. Unfortunately, I would have an exam on that day and there's no way i could've gotten on a computer and sniped the auction. So i hit up brother arwin to do me this huge favor. And thanks to his AMAZING awpping/sniping skills he copped em for me! Copped Sept. 30.
Shecklers
CONCLUSION:
Kemp Jersey = $13.50
Supreme Backpack = $155 (shipped)
True Religion jeans = $89
Chucks = $30 (discounted)
Flight 95's = $70
Oakley Frogskins = $132.50
Total spent = roughly $490
Having all these and still rep I.L.E. = PRICELESS
The end....for now. I hella have to stop spending so i can save for lift tickets! :]
