Reading week for the poor Engineering students! However, my school just loves to put midterms right after the break to keep us on our toes. Well I had to get my ‘fix’ of snowboarding for the season. We went to Blue Mountain, a great view over the Georgian Bay area.
Weather wise it was -1DegC (a little warm), shallow layer of powder but icy at some slopes.
Pouyan’s ski mask reminded me of the Arctic Avengers from CS!
I love ski-lifts, they are so relaxing and you can see so much from up top.
A collision between Pouyan and Justin! Skiers have the most spectacular wipe outs with their gear scattered all over the hill.
We did almost 12hrs of ski/snowboarding and totaled about 40-50 runs. We were really tired on the way back…
With over 35 people registered on 2 teams, the trons with their red jerseys have made quite a name for ourselves.
Enter “Captain Saro and the Planeteers”! Led by Saro and each has a power of earth, wind, water, fire and heart, this team is full of spirit and good times.
Half-time. We need to stick to our positions and get to the ball first.
Planeteers aside, team “Ludwik And Anthony’s Most Excellent Adventure Team … United” is armed to the teeth going for the glory. I don’t know how Fatin got his leg stuck so high.
Aaron, our goalie, scored a goal in the first game…go figure.
Yesterday I was trying to find excuses not to study so I checked out the snowboarding store in the University plaza. I ended up going with Ian and walked out with a new set of Burton Command SI bindings and boots.
Now I can have more distractions tweaking and mounting them onto my board!
The workload is definitely getting heavier with lab reports and design projects. Also, midterms in 2 weeks. Yikes.

Sports
On Sunday I went with Jon, Karen and Justin to the Raptor’s game. Even the snowstorm couldn’t dampen the spirit of the fans and it was a full-house at the Air Canada Center.
The Celtics were running for the best track record and the Raptors were on a winning streak so both teams really wanted the win to keep the momentum going. Here are some blocks from the game.
