Snowboarding!

Ermm... I don't know if anyone's interested in hearing about my recent snowboarding experience, but I've got nothing else to write about. I finally got to go snowboarding a few days ago. I didn't go to a proper resort,I just went to this slope that's on Broadview, and it was great. I only fell about two times in three hours, so I was quite happy about that. The snow wasn't packed,fortunately, so I didn't end up with any bruises. I also got a lot better at doing turns and stops. The last time when I went snowboarding I had kind of given up on doing turns because I was so terrible at them. So I guess this is where my post ends...'cause I've kind of ran out of things to say...

Snow!

It's snowing outside which means that I'll be able to go snowboarding soon! :D I'm quite happy about that. Oh, and, also about the fact that school's over with for this year. So,I don't know what else to write about. At the moment I'm listening to some music, Moonspell. I don't think anyone's heard of them. They're a Portuguese metal band that I got into when I was in grade 7. The album that I'm listening to now, is "The Antidote". It's one album that I find great to listen to when it's snowing outside. Maybe that's because of it's misty atmosphere. But it's not just that album, most of their older stuff has that same atmosphere to it.

Applying for Uni

So, I've finally applied to University. I would've proffered to have waited for another week so I could do my research properly, but my mom got on my case about it, and made me apply. But, I don't know if I choose the program that suits me best, even if that's not the case, I know I'll have the opportunity to change it during the winter break.

I just wish we had more time to choose the right program. I've felt very rushed lately with everything, and I couldn't really fit "researching for the right program" into my schedule.

Winter break

I'm really excited about the winter break approaching. I can't wait to be over with all of these assignments and just rest. It seems like I won't be getting much homework over the break, but even if I do, I don't plan to do any of it during the first week. For that one week, I want to forget the meaning of the word school.

As for my plans over the winter break, I'll be going snowboarding at Barrie (because Blue Mountain is always packed) which will be a lot of fun. The last time I went there, I didn't have my own snowboarding equipment and I had to rent out a board, which gave me an extremely hard time when snowboarding, because it was very hard to control. But this year, I have a new, proper board, so it should be fun.

Metaphors Extended... part 2

I added a few more lines to last week's metaphors. Here they are:


#1

Love is a grenade
The seconds are numbered away,
Until someone will pull the pin,
And scatter chaos into your world
Chaos, that will pierce your mind.

Then the remnants of the past will penetrate-
Through your skin, and they will hide
Then every step you'll further take
Will be a remainder, of the past.

The aching pain will then vibrate
And remind you of what was destroyed
And of what remains at this moment;
Fragments of a broken statue.

#2

Love is a cool drink of water
It soothes the soul from the fires of life,
From the chaos that surround us.
Yet it makes pawns of us:
It makes us vulnerable to it's every move.

It gives us the impression that we're in control
And able to make our crucial move
While the truth remains untold:
It is not us, that's determining our route.

#3
Life is a dream,
It can be beautiful;
It can seem surreal
But at the same time
It can turn into a nightmare.

You have the ability to shape it
Like you can shape your dream
But when it turns into a nightmare
You can only hope that you'll wake up.
