im really bad at updating this thing

Ok so nothing terribly exciting since the last blog, its been a lot of school work and projects. I managed to find some running shoes that i can wear around the residence areas and run outside with when it gets warmer out.
I also got a hair cut the other day, SNYKEEESS that was expensive, it cost about 60 canadian dollars AFTER a 20% student discount! but I did get a head massage with it, sooooo it kinda made it more justifiable for that price. I was told there was a cheaper place after i got my hair cut. but everyone thats gone there says you have to wear a hat for a few weeks afterwards becuase its soo bad.

I just bought a round trip plane ticket to Poland in may for 30 euro. going there for a weekend to drink and check out the scenery in Krakow ( i think thats how you spell it). Theres a group of exchange students going so it should be fun. In fact i should have just flown to another country and got my hair cut, it might have been cheaper :p

Today i went on a hike up anither mountain with Mika. Nick was too hungover to come so he missed out. it was by far the best view ive had yet from a mountain. the hike up sucked though, we followed a ski trail through the narliest woods ever. we could hadrly navigate the trees walking, so i have no idea how the crazy skiers did it. when we got up 3/4 of the way the snow was soo deep we were crawling (yes i forgot to bring my sno shoes AGAIN! you think i would learn) but the top was worth it. we found a groomed trail to run down afterwards, which is always my favourite part. i love running down the mountain because you can go really fast with little effort and if you bail, you just roll, no biggie :)

so next weekend i might go to Voss which has some great skiing, and the weekend after im going to some place called kramboden with a large group of students, its a cottage that the students use for partying. apparently it has a hot tub and everything so that should be pretty rad.

OH and i just finished another seminar course, this one was about communicating in the energy sector with reference to cross cultural issues. basically we were put into teams from various countries. had to study their culture and emulate it in negotiations over green technology business transactions. pretty fun, pretty easy :) this also means i have earned enough credits in two weeks to count has a credit back at ivey (Sweeeeet).

well i gtg its madelenes birthday (neighbor) and im late

toodles
