Skiing
I made a youtube account so I could upload videos of from skiing if anyone is interested: http://www.youtube.com/user/Ihateyoufailtube?feature=mhw4#p/u
I'm the one skiing in all black with the kitty face made out of reflective tape on my back. Can't really see that it's me though cause I'm usually wearing a mask. My nose runs if I don't keep it covered from the cold.
Going to school again
Today was my first day of class. A few months back I decided I should take some sort of art class, especially considering my proximity to the college. So after some debate I signed up for yoga and intro to painting. Didn't get into yoga but made it into painting 107.

My experience with painting in the past only really includes some crappy attempts in highschool art class and a few failed attempts on my own since then, so I think this class will be a rewarding experience. One emphasis
Mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!

What we really need is a new construct for society which somehow rewards altruism and community building rather than greed and seperatism. We need to view ourselves as a single entity that can either work together for the greater good of all, or can continue to divide ourselves, fight among ourselves, compete with one

Feel no need to read my ramblings as I do seem to go on a bit long, just watch the movies (yes, both of them!) feel free to skip the first 5-10 minutes the intro is quite long and a bit boring.

skiing is awesome. Do you cross country or downhill ski (or both?)
