Skiing is LOVE.
Hello once again!
After so many days, my roomie and I just realised that we could use the internet from our own room and hence I'm sitting in the comfort of my own hotel room and blogging sans noise from Japanese and crazy angmohs.
So today was back to skiing again. Didn't do much in the morning because I didn't want to join the beginners class and do some really boring turns and all. Headed over to the higher slopes to practise my turns and speed control. I guess it paid off when I finally had a coach in the afternoon when he took me up the mountains to try out some skiing.
I had a disastrous time yesterday as you all know, hurting my balls and bumping myself all over. It took my one and a half freakin' hours just to get down. Luckily, I fell less today and managed to get down in about 40 minutes! I improved drastically! ^^
Anyways, today was the last day of skiing so I'm kinda sad but glad at the same time because I managed to learn alot today. My instructor commented that I was a "prodigy" because I could learn stuff really quick. Like he said that I could learn parallel skiing in 4 days whereas others took 3 weeks and he said I was really good. But I suppose he's just exaggerating. Hmm.
Oh well, skiing is an unforgettable experience! Just that I can't do it for too many days or I'll end up a mangled, bruised and battered mess. I'd like to say a big THANK YOU to all my ski instructors:
Bino-san, Yuko-chan, Jo, Shawn, Sakai-san, Daniel and Paul! (:
You guys rocked my skiing world!
Yeah! And yes, I had so many instructors because I was thrown everywhere because I switched between private and group coaching. Ahh, such is the troubles of a beginner skier amongst pros. I still enjoyed myself so that's okay!
So tomorrow I'll be waking up really early because I wanna take more pictures of myself in the snow and around the ski slopes. It's pretty! I'll be taking a flight and heading over to Sapporo tomorrow to do some shopping so hopefully that'd be interesting too!
Ooh, I just saw BoA's commerical for Toshiba on TV with her latest single Lose Your Mind playing in the background! How cool is that! Japanese commericals are just so cool because almost all of them have Japanese songs accompanying them! They're funny too!
I'm going to turn in now!
Have a goodnight everyone!
Lol, I'm watching Desperate Housewives on TV now! Haha.
Nights! =)
P.S.
I had a "Yard Sale" today!
Haha, know what that means?
I fell during one of the runs on the slopes and everything flew off, my skis, my poles, my goggles... ok you get the point.
That's what my instructor calls it!
Thank goodness nothing broke! Phew!
Hail Mary.
