Today was a really good day. I didn’t go up the mountain; instead, I decided to sleep in. It was the first time I have slept in since I moved out here and it was really necessary. I went down to the skate park and cruised around there for a bit. Snowboarding stresses me out, but skateboarding centers me. I put too much pressure on myself to be good at snowboarding, but skateboarding is still really pure for me. It is just fun. It was also nice to be away from snowboarders and around skateboarders for the day. They really are a different breed. It has been really warm here all week, so I was able to come home and just sit on my deck for a couple hours and read. So good, so perfect, really. Now I am just feeling good. Everything is good.
I finished up training this week and got to teach my first lesson on Saturday. Because of the warm weather, ski school has been pretty slow, and it has been difficult for me to get work, but I am going to continue to bother people until I finally get on the schedule full time. Other than that I have just been doing a lot of riding. It has all been pretty great. I need to start making some money soon though, which is sort of stressing me out at the moment.
So yeah, I am one month in, and things are going well. I still feel like there is a lot I want to do here, and I am hoping I can get it all in. Time is flying right now. I do miss things back home, but I am trying to remind myself that I will be there soon enough, and until I get there I should ensure I have as much fun as possible.
