Snowboarding

This past weekend, I had my first ezperience ever with snowboarding and skiing. I've never done it before or have even been tempted to do it before, not really sure why I had a change of heart all of a sudden. It was really touch and go there for a while, but I was doing alright. Then all my buddies left me to go farther than just the bunny hill (yeah, I stayed there), and I did really awesome but no one was there to see it. Unfortunately, my awesomeness stopped when I face planted on some ice (boo). Funny thing was, I scratched the exact same cheek as last year when I fell on ice, this exact same weekend in 2011. Coincidence? I think so. Then I resorted to skiis and realized that I hate the skiing because I feel too out of control. I should probably just stick to solid, safe ground but it was fun to try it out for once.

The challenge

I have just been given a new book to read: The Hunger Games. I've heard very good things about this new trilogy and my BFF lent me it to read since I read so much as is. She has thus challenged me to read it "like a normal person," (her words,not mine). Apparently reading a few chapters then flipping to the back to see how it ends is not the right way. Well see if I can hold off.
P.S. to my family, it adds 374pgs to our reading challenge!

One of my new years resolutions


This entire year, from January 1 to December 31 2012, my family and I are having a book contest. We are seeing who can read the most amount of pages in that time. We aren't going by books because all books are different sizes. So after December, whoever reads the most pages will win!! I'm competing to win!!! :)
