Get Involved

This week has gone pretty well. It started off just okay and classes where getting to me a bit. On tues. was the big club fair day. There are tons of clubs at this school. I joined the snow sports club and the white water kayak club. It cost me 25 bucks to join snow sports but only 10 to join kayak. I wont do any kayak for a while. But they will have some stuff in a pool soon to teach you how to roll and what not. Snow Sports had a pub crawl this Thursday night. I went on it. It was heaps of fun. Only like 10 Americans too which was def sweet. Everyone was super friendly. The pub crawl started at some guys house for a BBQ and then went to 4 different pubs. Then we got dropped of at the foundry which is the pub on campus. It was super sweet.

Joining the clubs definitely put me a in a better mood. I was excited to finally be involved in more. I went to a beach on wed. night. It was really sweet. Tons of rocks to climb around on and what not. Ill put pics up in a bit. Wed night was also the tramping club meeting. I decided to go to that cause all my friends where. I ended up join that club too. I wasnt going to but they will have seminars on outdoor safety that I will want to go to. The tramping club is like 90% Americans, its kind or ridiculous.

My math class was really getting me down. I was super lost. I was going to all the classes but I wasn't getting anything. On Thurs. we just did practice problems in class. I realized I did already know all of it, they just do it differently. It gave me some confidence which is good. Thursday night was the pub crawl like I talked about earlier.

Today is fri. I'm getting plans set for skiing this weekend. The mountains got completely dumped on. 30 cm at the base. Im going to go to one of the club fields this weekend. Stay right there on sat. night. I'm super pumped!

Im in the process of getting a pass. I can get 10 lift tickets for like 380 which is a really sweet deal. I wanted to get it by this weekend but I don't think Ill be able to. Everyone is out skiing prob cause no one returns my calls. Also, next week ill go back to temple basin for more skiing with the club. They're not going this weekend cause everyone is going to the ENSOC ball. Its sappose to be a really good time but I got to go get after the fresh pow pow. When Ill go with the club next weekend it will be even cheaper to stay in the lodge. As long as I get this pass and I dont want food. It will only be like 35 bucks a weekend. Not to bad.

Alright Im going to get going. Im gonna go pick up a head tourch for night skiing at the place. I cant wait to shred!! Check for pics when on Sun. night
