Now, I mean business :)

Woo! What a day!

I got woken up to a phone call sayin’ a had a ride to Kelowna (this is like a dream come true for people up here !!!!)
So i rugged up (’cause I’ve been sicking – I’m trying to keep warm and dry) and ran all the way to Trailside (which is like the bottom-ish of the village). Anndd we went to town!!!!

I bought gloves (thermal and waterproof), a head scarf, a new beanie (its so cool – its like a proper one with ear covers and its wool with a thermal layer and has blue & green stripes on it) and I bought goggles!
So now I’m all set!!!! yayayayay I may be *totally* broke but I’ve got everything I need to slope my winter away! I’m so excited.

Problem: we’ve had NO snow for like four days AND the mountains looking like it wont open on time :( Sad Days. This also means my hotel is going to have customers, with no lifts (uh – oh!). So this will be intersting :)
So i’ve done another big shop! And I’ve even bought myself a book. The days can be a bit slow going so I figured I’d get some reading in and keep all those ‘skills’ up or something. I just wanted some light reading… and something cheap! So, I ended up with a new Robert Fisk book which is MASSIVE its like 4cm thick and it’s the most amazing story. The preface I could’ve used in my honours thesis – so it’s not exactly easy reading but it’s REALLY cool!
So today is also Nomi’s birthday today !!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY <3

So yeah, i’ve just shopped today, read my book (it’s very cool) and wondered around Kelowna. It’s nice to get down the mountain.
Well yes, that is all for now! Tomorrow is the offical ‘Big White’ Orientation and we have a 3hour motivational speech! Not too exciting but should be intersting :)

That is all for now!
