Grind (2003)

IMDB rating: 5.00

Plot: While the rest of his high school graduating class is heading to the same old grind of college, skateboarder Eric Rivers and his best friends, Dustin, a goal-oriented workaholic, and misfit slacker Matt have one last summer roadtrip together to follow their dream of getting noticed by the professional skateboarding world—and getting paid to skate. When skating legend Jimmy Wilson’s skate demo tour hits town, the boys figure that as soon as he sees their fierce tricks, he’ll sign them up for his renowned skate team immediately, right? Unfortunately, the guys are intercepted by Jimmy’s road manager and they can’t get their foot in the door, much less their boards. But they do get some free advice: keep skating, stay true to yourself, and stay in the game—if you’re good, you’ll get noticed. Following their dream— and Jimmy’s national tour—Eric, Dustin and Matt start their own skate team, reluctantly sponsored by Dustin and his college fund. After recruiting laid-back ladies man Sweet Lou to join their crew and provide the wheels for their tour, team Super Duper launches the ride of their lives in an outrageous road trip from Chi-town to Santa Monica. The professional scene doesn’t exactly welcome nobody skaters, but these outsiders stick together through extreme misadventures. In their quest to go pro, they meet professional vert skating champions Bucky Lasek, Bob Burnquist and Pierre Luc Gagnon, skate pro Bam Margera and his crew Preston Lacy, Ehren Danger McGhehey and Jason Wee Man Acuna, as well as sexy skate chick Jamie as they grind handrails across America and force the skateboarding world to give ‘em a piece of the action.

Is this just me "being a teenager"?
So before I start labelling myself or whatever…I just need some advice from people who know a bit more about this stuff ..:/

It started in about summer 2009. I started crying a lot more about tiny things, obsessing about everything. Friends, school, what I look like. Any of those things can keep me up all night worrying, when before I skated through, probably not caring enough. I used to be very lazy about schoolwork, concentrating mainly on having a good time, and I never really thought about how I looked. I applied makeup, but I was under the impression that anyone who can put makeup on properly can be pretty.
Now, I feel really isolated from my friends. I used to identify with them really well, but recently I don’t enjoy doing the things they do, and they think I’ve changed a lot. They say I’ve become grumpy, sarcastic and mean. I get possessive- I’ve lost three best friends which of course is part of growing up-but it affected me much more than them.
I obsess about how I’m doing at school-if I get below an A I get a really horrible feeling in my stomach, like I should have done better.
I hate looking in the mirror. I’m really, truly ugly, and I’m not just saying that. This is probably just my age-I’m fourteen-but I’ve never had a boyfriend or been kissed which makes me wish I knew what I’m doing so wrong.
I’ve picked up a multitude of nervous habits. I frequently find myself biting my nails, grinding my teeth and running my hair through my nails so that it breaks. I find it really hard to talk to people I’m not familiar with because I always feel like I’m not good enough for them or something.
I have another thing which is kind of hard to explain, but whenever I do something unusual-for example comment on the facebook status of somebody "popular"- a voice in my head puts me down, saying "why would they want to talk to you? They’re probably laughing at you right now…". Or if I volunteer to read something out in class, in my head I tell myself not to be so arrogant. I cry almost every night, sometimes I’m not sure why.
I have no desire to kill myself, I just feel really…I don’t know.
Anyway, does this sound like "teenage angst" or whatever? :/
Thanks to anyone who answers. :-)


Year 10? worst year of my life. Lost friends, fell out alot, failed most subjects, wanted to move schools and cryed alot. Its just a phase trust me. I realised that them friends wernt important and made new friends. I concentrated more on my school work. Focused on the future and forgot the past. Don’t think anything lower then an A is bad. And A is good. Those ‘orange’ girls tend to be spotty and have pretty gross skin. Dont pressure yourself to do anything or meet up to there standards. You have the rest of your life to meet guys, grow up and be beautiful [Which im pretty sure your not ugly anyway] Be yourself! Be Unqiue! [:

Harry Edwards recalled the case of a young man who, accompanied by a lady, was brought to me for healing. He was in great pain and eaten-up with arthritis. As the healing proceeded, so his pains left him, and his joints began to loosen and become free. When I had finished treating him, it was a real delight to see how wonderfully glad he was to be able to use his legs, feet, arms and hands again… and then he told me: "When I came here, I was convinced no one could help me, and I came only to please my Aunt, who brought me."

You worked a miracle with his father when he was very ill 1983-84 when I wrote to you, but you will be pleased to know he is now working for the Council and lives a fairly normal life.

I’s report is complete - he is 100% fit and will have no trouble in resuming his sporting activities -considering the first reports, this is a miracle. I do not know how I would have managed without your wonderful help.

You and the late Harry Edwards helped me so often and indeed I am still pressing on 18 years after I was expected to die from my last bout of cancer.

I wrote to ask for healing for my sister who was to undergo an operation for aneurysm in the aorta. Her operation was very successful. After 1 day in intensive care and 2 days in progressive care she was back in her own room and has done extremely well. She was allowed home after 7 days when she had been told to expect to be in hospital for 10 to 15 days. Everyone was amazed at her recovery and the surgeon told her she had been a perfect patient. I feel sure the absent healing and our prayers were to a great extent responsible for this wonderful recovery and I thank you most sincerely for your help.

I thought perhaps you would like to have a record of the people you have helped during the time I have been sending reports. M.L. -angina, complete recovery. D. L. -duodenal ulcer, complete healing. B.L. - Angina, complete recovery. P.D. - Leukaemia - apparent full recovery.

On behalf of my mother, daughter and myself may I thank you for the lovely day at your Sanctuary last Tuesday. My mother is so much better it is truly amazing. She can stretch out her arms and even raise them to her head and her walking is much stronger. My daughter was very impressed, too. 1141/6
My condition improved in as much as I now have much more self-confidence and ability to deal with my everyday life. 1145/6
G.S. Good news. Up until recently he had to be helped to get into and out of his car. It is adapted to enable a disabled person to drive, The other day he got into his car entirely on his own and drove some 12 miles to a nearby town. Got out on his own and went into a shop to make a purchase. No wheelchair anymore! 1142/6
You both, along with our friends in Spirit, have been directing healing for our daughter who, as I told you, has been given a full bill of health, thank you. 1146/6
I must report to you the miracle that soon after writing to you about my husband’s ill health due to smoking, he decided to give up the habit and has not smoked since. I never thought it possible. It has been well worth it all. His general health has improved considerably. 1148/6
