Mardi Gras Break!

  Hello bloggers!  I am just counting down the days until we are finally free for a week!  Aren't we all?  I'm so ready for a break from all this hard work and studying; but I am not only tired of all the work, I am tired of all the stress that I have to deal with!  I'm sure that once I have a few days of sleeping in and I finally get caught up on my sleep, I will be a little more willing to work and I will be in a better attitude.  Unfortunately, I won't be able to do much sleeping because this sunday I am leaving for Crested Butte, Colorado!

  Last year was the first time I had ever been to Crested Butte and I love it so much!  The environment is so fun there and I had so much fun with the families we went with.  The only bad part is that skiing isn't particularly my idea of a "vacation."  I started skiing a few years ago (which is pretty late) because I was terrified!  So my parents being the pro skiers they are finally forced me to just go and try it.  I was so scared I was going to break my ankle or snap my leg right in half.  But once I finally got there and learned, I decided it wasn't so bad.  Since then, I've come a long way, I've grown to like skiing a little more but it still isn't my favorite thing in the world for a few reasons.  Number one, I hate cold weather SO MUCH!  Also, I am still very scared that I am going to severely injure myself.  Who knows how i'll feel about skiing after this trip, I will be sure to let you know because i'm sure something crazy is bound to happen knowing my luck!

  1. I am also going to colorado for mardi gras too. Except I'm going to Snowmass! I love to ski, and it's one of my favorite things to do! I'm also very good at it! Do you ski greens, blues, or blacks?

  2. Emily, I am so ready for a break too! I just went skiing over Christmas break and had a blast! The only bad thing about skiing is waiting in those long lines to get all your stuff, but then after that it's so much fun! Have fun and don't hurt yourself!

  3. Hey Emily. I can't wait until Mardi Gras break to. I have never been skiing though and I also have never been to Colorado even though I really want to. I'm just going to Mississippi and hope you have fun
