Umm ... cold!

Yah, it's 11 in the morning and it's about 0F (-18C). It's supposed to be a haute high of about 6F (-13C). Hmm ... today is definitely a book day.

Ellie: i did write that letter to sensei. We sent it right before I posted it on the blog, at about 8 or 9 at night Mountain Time. And my dream was whacko. It's weird, maybe because I'm getting enough sleep...I'm remembering my dreams, and for a while after I awake too. It's cool though, I spoke in Chinese in one of my dreams a few nights ago; though I have no recollection of the actual content of the dream, I remember speaking in chinese throughout most of it.

Salem: Durn it! He's gone already? I didn't get a chance to say 'bye' or nothin! Sux. Oh well, I enjoyed the party at Maya's but I do have a question, should I have paid for some of that pizza? I totally left without thinking of it, and then I only remembered when I got back home. Suck!

I'm so unexcited about going back to SUA. Every time I come back home for a long period of time, I don't remember how I could ever get through each day. I mean there's always something going on AND there's studies.

Oh yeah, must remember tell John/Jay Marzullo that Francie umm...Lastnameforgotten says 'Hi!' and yada yada yada. Better get that info b4 I go.

I'm kinda unmotivated about school. I know it's going to be hard and the like when I go back. Que yo tengo que estudiar mucho m'as para la clase de espanol...gen wo de zhongwen ke. I don't know how I'm going to survive this semester, but I'm sure I will. I just don't really want to get into many bad habits like I know I always do.

I'm also thinking about staying around over the summer, but that thought scares me. It involves getting a place with other people & I know I'm a hard person to read alot of the time, so that ought to be an interesting story. I don't know where I'll have the money too. Because I'm expecting that I'll have to pay around $150 per month IF i'm going to share with some people and not sardining ourselves.

That means though that I'll be able to come back and do some skiing/boarding for Spring break! YAAAY! That's my plan, especially if I'm not going to see my family for 9-12 months from this wednesday. I don't want to be totally disconnected.

Oh yeah! I went Skiiing on Saturday. It was fun. Though due to my bad form, I had the burning thighs from hell syndrome! We went up into Wyo. and skiied at Snowy Range. It was nice, though cold! I think that it was weird, because they were skiing down here in Colo with thigh deep powder and I could hardly stand up in 4-6" powder. But oh did I love falling in Champagne powder or semi-packed powder!!! It's soft and it don't hurt. Though, being Wyo, there were wind-swept ice sheets near the top of every hill.

There was a cute guy at the lodge rental place too. My type, looked like a boarder/football player. Sigh! Dirty blond, squared chin, blueish eyes. All with that all-american straight-boy good looks. Sigh. No pings nor pangs. So, no chance there.

So, oh well, there goes on and on into my life of celibacy. I want to find someone that I can start a relationship with. Maybe someday. But as for now I have some prayers to do.

I'll post to y'all probably later tonight or tomorrow morning. We're going out to celebrate my going away, my obaachan's birthday (30 Dec official / 23 Dec real) and my brothers's birthdays (10 jan - middle one's / 17 jan - youngest one's). Hopefully we'll be going to some chinese sit-down place and not a buffet.

Great Wall in Loveland here we come!!!
