Today I was so tired from skiing yesterday, it wasn't really funny. But It was warm today. I am looking to go skiing again on Thursday or Friday; and looking to take a friend...Thursday looks better.
I worked outside some today. Cutting and shaping some of the shrubbery around the house; I REALLY cut back some of the flowering shrubs too...My mom had me cut them back so far, I don't think they are going to bloom this year, which will be a bummer cause they look so cool cause there are like a million little yellow flowers on the HUGE bush. I ended up using the chainsaw to do pretty much all the work...including trimming the hedges...kinda like the Family Life Network morning show song...gotta love those guys!
I started signing up for more classes...even while on spring break I just can't seam to stay away from that whole college thing...I signed up for weight lifting, that should be an interesting class...I am taking that class on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays from 10:10 till 11:05, which will make me all good and tired out for my karate class on Monday and Wednesday at 3:40 till 5:00.
I went into college today to get a request to send out my transcript...that was fun, cause they didn't have power...like it kept blinking in and out. I decided to finally buy that camera today...so I walked into Walmart and bought one...but I got home...and it wasn't the one I wanted. It takes TERRIBLE pics...you Have to use the flash otherwise the pictures come out grainy and blurry. I don't like it...I HAVE to take it back...I can't stand it.

Skiing Solo.
Today was my first day of spring break. I went skiing today, it was fun to just drive up to Ellicottville and ski all day. It was 
kind of a downer that I didn't have any of my friends to come with me... The skiing was pretty good, I was the first one down Morning Star. It was around 30 degrees, so everything was still pretty solid, but later it warmed up. I did some jumps, I am still working on landing, and also overcoming my will and hitting the jumps faster to go farther. Yeah pretty scary stuff. I rode up the lift with a 4 different people: one older couple was from a little town aboot 70 km north of Toronto, another guy stays at Holiday Valley all winter and skies everyday, and the last one was a guy who skis at HV about as often as me.
I
saw a Very interesting family while skiing, the ENTIRE family was wearing "spring wear" like shorts and t-shirts and stuff...the little boy looked the funniest cause he had these shorts on with thes BIG HONKIN' snowboarding boots. He is sitting in the middle of the lift. It was pretty funny.
A lot of the boarders were having problems later in the day. The sun came out after lunch and it warmed up to 50-ish degrees; it ended up making like mashed potatoes...about 4-5 inches of mashed potatoes...not too fun...but VERY funny to watch from the lift. It was a very good day
, I got a lot of runs. I tried to stay off the lift as much as possible, going pretty much all the way down the mountain before getting on a lift at the very end.
The drive home was not too bad...instead of driving home like the way I came (Rte. 98 to E. Arcade to 36 to 242) I just went 242 to 36 to 98. Which was simpler, since all I really had to do was to keep driving on that same road...quite simple. Fun day. I LOVE SKIING!

The Art of hockey...not really, I'm not that good.
Man, I was sooooo tired tonight...I just got home from playing hockey. I had my very last art class before spring break...I am so glad. One whole week of not having to go to college. My teacher let us out early today...I think she wanted a head start on spring break too...that was good. I'm glad she is nice once in a while.
I got home only to remember that today was Friday...and what do I do almost every Friday? I play hockey...I was already tired...then to go play hockey with my friends...MAJOR tiredness...no...more like General Tiredness. But anywaz, every game that we played my team won...I was just lucky to be on the winning team; I played I think 6 sets, which is best 2 out of 3...I ended up coming home early at 9:15 and the guys played another 2 sets afterward. I was so whipped. my whole body ached for Ibuprofen...I actually escaped without getting any major injuries, and for that I am thankful.
