Skiing

*THIS POST IS FOR JANUARY 31 2010

It's now Sunday, the last day of the Big White trip. I had quite a bit of fun during these past few days. Sure, there have been ups and downs, but that's life. Heck, that's skiing, just going up and coming back down. Like I mentioned before, life would not be the same if everything was flat snd mundane. Overall, I'd say that I'm glad I went on this trip. Had some laughs and enjoyed the company of friends.

Nice view

There's something incredible about standing on a mountain top, overlooking the world below. Today I went skiing for the first time in about 6 years or so. I wasn't good at it then, and I certainly wasn't good today. But I still managed to have a good time. I managed to take this picture in the midst of having snow blowing in every direction. I still don't know how that works, so I'll just say that it was some form of mountain-magic

Mess

It's currently 930 on Friday night, and I'm just sitting here in the hotel room with a buddy. Meanwhile outside, teenagers run rampant through the halls. Not gunna lie, tonight has been a real pain. About an hour earlier one of my other roommates brought in a very intoxicated friend over due to health concerns. She ended up vomitting quite a bit so we had to care for her for the rest of the night. That is, until she was taken away in an ambulence. Great fun.

Here we go

Well now, it seems like just yesterday that I was blogging about geting fired up for Semi. Time really flies eh? Anyways, I'll be heading out to Big White this weekend, so naturally I probably won't be able to update the blog. HOWEVER, do not fear, dear readers. I will take a digital camera and take some sweet photos during the trip, as long as a video, which will be posted to my Facebook. I will also be blogging on my iPod touch in the form of a note, which I will copy and paste to a blog post when I get back. So pretty much, I'll still be taking, posting, and reflecting on a pic everyday, I just won't be able to upload it because I don't have the necessary equipment with me...unless someone wants to lend me a Macbook, SDCH card reader, and access to the internet lol

Hugs all around

Just got back from The Night Of Shooting Stars at Windsor's theatre. I'll be honest, I was pleseantly surprised by how well the music sounded in that room. The perfromances were simply fantastic, and I''m sure everyone was having a great time. I managed to snag this photo of James and Devon during the intermission :P

Variety

What it is it about variety that is so appealing to us? As I was taking this photo, I jokingly thought about the proverb, "variety is the spice of life." Yeah I love puns :P Nah but seriously, this really makes me think about what life might be like if everything was always uniform, with no discrepancies. I assume that eventually we would get bored and/or go mad. I guess I'm just trying to put a reason on why life has its ups and downs. Now by no means am I trying to suggest that drama is necessary in life. I'm just saying that a little change in a regular pattern can be a good thing in the long run.

Epic Tea is Epic

So I got this English project due tomorrow that I still have to finish, so i thought I might get myself a nice cup of tea. Only thing is, I don't really like hot drinks, or even hot foods for that matter. That's why adding cold milk to tea is such an awesome concept. i mean it cools down the tea, and it looks so cool when you poor in the milk and the tea's all like "WOOSH!"
