Ski Trip '12

    A few weekends ago, a couple of friends and I had decided to go to Killington Mountain for a ski weekend. Well, I assumed it was all our first time skiing, and I assumed wrong. I had no idea my friends were so good at snow sports! Needless to say, I was always way behind them, and honestly half of the trails we went on I probably should've just skipped out on. They were pretty mad I never told them it would be my first time skiing, but after a while they came around and enjoyed watching me struggle and playfully making fun of me. By the end of the trip, I could successfully ski down a blue square trail and almost keep up with the rest of my group. I'm glad I had this learning experience and put myself out of my comfort zone. While it may have been frustrating for my friends in the beginning, it was all worth it in the end. Now the next time that we decide to take a ski trip, I'll be more than prepared and excited!
