Yea, it was my first skiing experience! And I would say it was fun =)

Before we went skiing, I was so nervous, or maybe I should say I was scared. Coz i remembered, my first time skating at Sunway Pyramid. Pei Ying was the one who encouraged me, stayed beside me. She knew what happened when I started skating. I hold her tightly, hold the side tightly and told her, "I don’t wanna skate anymore". And my tears rolled down too. I really felt ashamed. But in the end, I could skate (although I couldn’t skate like an expert)! =)

It was on a Tuesday during Spring break that I joined the ski trip organized by UMIMSA(Umich Malaysian Student Association). Before the trip, I got all my equipments prepared, e.g. Ski pants, gloves etc.  The weather was not that good and the journey was kinda scary (still, we reached Pine Knob Ski Resort safely). When we first reached, we got our tickets and our ski shoes as well as ski poles. We started skiing at the Beginner’s bunny. I was happy that I didn’t fall for the first time =) I was actually very scared, but I told myself that I don’t wanna fall, so I tried hard to balance myself until I stopped. After a few hours, we stopped and had lunch.

After that, I asked S.Ling to try the "Intermediate" slope with me. This time we need to take the chair lift to get to the "top of the hill". The chair lift is like a cable car, but it’s open air and no seat belts! Too bad, we didn’t know how to get off! And so, we jumped and fell. S.Ling taught me how to get up, coz that was my first time fell and I don’t know how to stand up. And we could see, how steep the slope was, compared to the beginner’s bunny. OMG! We had no choice but to ski downhill. That was fast, that was really fast. And, the wind was so strong with snow blowing onto my face. I didn’t fall and I could stop safely. I felt so sorry to make S.Ling come with me. Fortunately she’s safe and I wouldn’t do that to her anymore. Coz it was really dangerous.  Sorry, S.Ling…

I tried to ski a few times at the beginner’s bunny. And then, I tried the "Intermediate" by myself. I was scared, but I wanted to try. And I knew how to get off the chair lift the second time I tried. That was fun, but of course I didn’t manage to try the most difficult part. It’s enough, I’m glad that I came back without injuries. =)

Now Spring break comes to an end. School will start in two days…
