Boards and babies..

"So I bought a snowboard last weekend. I am really excited! My family goes up to Sun Peaks or Big White for around a week after Christmas and I was the only one in my family who boards but doesn't own a board. So now I do :). A couple friends helped me through the process of getting it, which was a lot more work then I expected. I'm not the best decision maker so having to make three in a row (what board, what bindings, what boots) was exhausting :). But on the other hand I now can go snowboarding and I am so excited to go! 
More happy news is that I am half way through my exams, no over half way. I have done three of five already and so far I think that I have gotten a 'B' on all the exams. At least that is what I am hoping for. I procrastinate so bad that when exam time comes around I have so much to do that I just get overwhelmed but this year I decided to try something new. I decided that instead of totally stressing out when I feel overwhelmed I would pray about it. It works so much better then my other coping mechanisms which depending on the time of year vary from extensive runs to watching way to many episodes of "Criminal Minds". 
Oh and I am an Aunty again :). My older sister had a little girl. She was tiny and my sister was back home and sleeping in her own bed the same night that the baby was born. She is quick like that. I bet she is already skinny too. I can't wait to see the new baby and my sister and her family again. Only four days left till I go home! I am excited to go home and see my family and friends again but at the same time I will miss Kamloops and all my friends here. Kamloops has definitely become a second home. 
Well anyways off to bed. Good night world."
