Ice, Ice, Baby!


Its Friday! Which meeeeaaans ski club! I was getting kind of scared with all the rain we've been having. It was pretty warm the past couple of days too so yeah.

Unfortunately with the rain and whatnot, the snow absolutely sucked today. It was hard and icey and my board kept getting stuck in grooves made by other boards so I kept falling. But I got the turning thing down! I had to work on linking my turns and today I finally got the feel, I know what I'm supposed to do. its all about moving the board with my feet and legs so I think I got it... but like I said, the snow sucked. And the guy wouldn't give me my sticker. I dont know why Jacob got a sticker because he can't do the turns either so... I'm a little confused about that but. Oh well.

Speaking of Jacob, since everyone else had left us to go on the big kid's hill, Jake turned into the social butterfly and is now best friends with everybody. I don't know how he does it really... I can't even ask the one kid what grade he's in. o_O So it was just Timmy and I on the kiddie hill. Which is fine, with that snow I wouldn't have wanted to try the bigger hill anyways. Plus I got some one on one. its really cool to actually get teachers you understand and who actually help you... the guy I ended up with in the end was just kinda... meh. He likes to talk things to death and THEN let you try them. AND he still didnt give me my sticker.
