Skiing and the new year

Well happy late new year everyone! I really don't like New Year's resolutions for myself because I figure I should be trying to improve myself all year. However, I am trying to change somethings for the month of January. First off my eating and working out has been horrid! So that's priority number one. Second I really need to focus on school since this is my worst semester with seven classes and 19 credits so I really need to make a school study plan. Third, I HAVE to budget! I can't afford to not have any money come June. I'm staying in school for the summer and need that money for rent and to survive. So that's the plan for January. I just need to take it one day at a time and eventually I'll get into a habit. Ok so one thing I've been trying to do forever was go skiing. I've always wanted to try it. So last Wednesday I went skiing up at Alta. This guy told me about a ski free after three at Alta. So me, Lindsey, Deborah, and Lindsey's sister Marie went skiing. It was fun! I was the only one who had not been skiing before so of course I spent the majority of the time on the ground. But I took sometime to get used to the skis and I felt a little better and I think the next time I go I'll be a little more daring. But I took some photos. Enjoy!

Awesome sunset on the way down the mountain.

That would be how I spent the first part of my skiing adventure.
Lindsey fell to make me feel better I'm sure!


So one odd thing, the guy who told me about the skiing at Alta was actually there when we were. Threw me off a little bit. I was just grateful that he didn't see the part where I was on my bum the whole time. Well anyway, that's it for this post. I have to get back to reading Harry Potter! He's about to go die by giving himself up to Voldemort! Harry's life sucks.
