The last three months - travelling and having a life?! (part 2)
Started posting this from Cleveland-Hopkins International Airport in Ohio (though what's international about it, I don't really know...) and continuing from Grand Rapids, MI, and then eventually at my cousin's house. What a long post. ^^;;
After I came back from New York, things were pretty busy at work for a while, so I didn't go anywhere, and I wasn't planning on going anywhere for a while. Some friends of mine in Seattle asked me whether I would join them in going up to Vancouver during the Thanksgiving weekend for some skiing. I accepted with some misgivings, since I'd never gone skiing before, but figured that I might as well give it a try. After all, the most that could happen would be that I'd fail and fall down, right? ;)
Well, I'm proud to say not only that I survived skiing, but I also had a wonderful time at Whistler Blackcomb and I'm actually hooked on skiing now to the extent that I've been trying to get![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
itsacz to join me. He seems to be resisting so far though but I will eventually wear down his defenses. >O
Pictures from Whistler
I came back from Whistler pretty thrilled about it, especially since I had a lot of delicious hot chocolate with whipped cream. ^^ Things were pretty quiet both at work and in terms of social life, although it did snow quite a lot on December 1st, to the point that it was a winter wonderland:
I went to San Jose for a work weekend, and mettesting4l, gemlikeflame, relsqui and zigdon there and much fun was had over Fluxx and Mongolian BBQ. Though I must say relsqui and testing4l are pretty good at changing the rules to suit themselves. ;)
One of my friends was going back to Singapore the following weekend, so we organized a trip to a gun range for her, since she wouldn't be able to do that in Singapore. And so it was that I fired a weapon for the first time (since I never did in NS), even if it was a 9mm pistol:
Snow and Shooting
I left for Michigan last night to spend a few days with my cousin, and so here I am. :)
