Ski @ Camelback on Feb 3
I can’t remember have I ever ski before. The only blurred momery was at Hokkaido when i was a child. Maybe I just sat on a board, it was not REAL ski. So this was really a good voyage to me. Putting two ski board on my feet and using sticks to control and brake.
”It would be easy to me. Skiing is just piece of cake.” It was my first impression. ”Everything would be under control.” ”Nothing could beat me.”
......BUT i was totally wrong.
I realized i couldn’t brake on a steep slope. ”Why?” ”Why the instructor did that easily?” ”I felt my legs weren’t my legs anymore. I did the same action as the instructor but it still couldn’t stop.”

Eating lunch always a good excuse to get rid of the reality. All what I wanted to do was sit down and take a BIG rest. ”Oh! So wonderful. A good meal and a LARGE beverage always make me regain energy after a exhausting training.” Finally, I could relax my legs and had a good breath. Enjoyed the sun and the white world. -.-
We eventually need to go back to the reality, though I didn’t want. ”I caouldn’t spend $80 without using skiing slopes.” So I decided to try 500 meters long skiing slope for at least 5 times whatever.
Amazing! Althought it’s not the most steep slpoe, I was still able to feel the very HIGH speed. WOW!!! Again, I could’t slow down my speed. What I could do was fall down with my ass. ><”

Can you imagine that you hit a tough rock in a very high speed? That’s what I felt at that moment. ”So painful.” I think I fell down at least 20 to 30 times. My whole body was going to seperate. ”I should not walk on Sunday.”
Though it was a painful experience to me, I still enjoy skiing. BUT next time, I will choose snowboarding instead of ski.

Eating is the best way to forget the pain. ..╮(﹋﹏﹌)╭..
