Christmas Break..

Wow... almost a week since school has let out for break. Want a recap? Hope so, cause that's what I'm typing about:

1st Night of the Season - Last Thursday was the first official day of vacation, to which I proceeded to enjoy it by heading up to the mountains to get my feet steady once again for the snowboard season. A local resort, Mt. High, stays open for a night session. I had never gone for their night session and was worried it'd be a bit icy on the slopes... the worries turned true, but still gave me a chance to get away for a few hours and get the brisk air across my nose.

Christmas Celebrations - My family resides back home in San Diego, so that's where the wheel and tires took me. It was a good chance to see family - neices, grandma, cousins, aunts and uncles, brother and sisters. Now that I'm moved away, I don't see some quite enough - some I haven't seen quite enough since they first moved away. Though, that's an experience in life... one I've experienced to Long Beach and who knows to where else in the future. Thankfully, even through failures to communicate, they still love me and give me chances to share with them the ongoings of my life - even through the typings of this.

Post Christmas - Now I'm back up in Long Beach, house-sitting, dog-sitting, puting off teacher work, and awaiting an upcoming trip to Mammoth Mountain, CA. To be honest, I am kinda getting cabin fever being "trapped" in Southern California. I'm really ready to get away... to escape... to be put in an extremely cold, and high altitude situation.

So, as for now, there's an update, and here's my salutations: Enjoy the new year, and don't make a resolution just because society dictates that you should make one. :-)
