It's possible that movies like "Mystery, Alaska" have over-romanticized skating on lakes. What I really want to do is skate on a frozen RIVER!
I think I keep procrastinating on the kickboxing because I'm somewhat leery about how terrible I'll be at it. I am NOT flexible, and already have hip and knee problems thanks to hockey. Speaking of which, I saw in your resolution post that you were thinking about joining an ice hockey team?? You totally should!! I'm sure indoor soccer is awesome (if you like running) but come on, you live in Prince George! Hockey is a pre-req for that ;)
For the Olympics I lucked into getting the coolest volunteer job ever: medal and flower bearer. I now know that I'm doing all the hockey, all the curling, and all the nightly victory ceremonies at BC place! Today I got a call from Vanoc saying that I can go get my hair cut and coloured at Suki's (aka $$$) for free!! That should help out with the whole "looking super hot" project, and I think I'll definitely shed some poundage if I actually manage to quit drinking until the Games. We'll see how long I last ;)
That was one of my resolutions from last year - one of the moms at my school told me I should join her hockey team, and I was thinking about it. I'd definitely like to try someday, but not having the gear is a HUGE roadblock. Hockey gear is NOT cheap, and I'd need everything! Ryan said I can borrow his if I ever want to try it out, which is probably what I'd do, but yeah. One day. :)
Dude, that is EPIC. Not only did you get to run the torch, but you're gonna be on teevee for some of the most important events?! Crazy! That's so exciting about the hair, haha. Good luck with the drinking! I find that ignoring your social life tends to help with that, though I wouldn't recommend becoming a hermit like me. :P
