Skiing!!!!

Wow, yet again I have failed to post blog entries regularly. Anyhoo, I went skiing yesterday on opening day at COP, I must say, it felt pretty good to be on skis again. First run, I skied to Fast Like a Nascar by Keak da Sneak, great pump up song. Finally I felt that freedom and release that I have been longing to feel. After I got comfortable in the first couple of runs I decided to hit up the mini park that they set up, lots of people there. I don't ride well when I feel pressured, and soon after I felt pressured to perform well, do tricks and not fall. Ugh I hate that pressure, especially when I ride alone. So mad that Brett and everyone moved to UBC and other places for university, now I have nobody to ride with. O well, next weekend I get to ride with MT all weekend for instructor clinics, it should be fairly interesting. Anyhoo, I manned up enough to hit the wallride, I kept on leaning too far forwards and not with enough speed, gotta work on that, but damn, the mental strength it takes to charge at a wallride with speed and not slow down or pussy out is hard! I need to practice riding switch, fell over a couple of times riding switch, I can't seem to do left turns as well as right turns. Gooood day (besides the fact that I woke up late, didn't go to history class and had a really shitty morning).

Other stuffs... Today was the last History and Literature class, yay no more waking up early for class on Saturdays. Finally the massage therapist came back from vacations and was able to fix me :) ...oh and I got new glasses, yes new glasses because I couldn't see properly with my old ones.

P.S. Met a pretty sweet little snowboarder kid who has fetal alcohol syndrome and rode with him for a bit, kid has such a positive outlook, props to him!
