long time no talk

So it's been ages since I have written...oops! Literally almost a month since my last post, that's how incredibly busy I have been this past month. Just after I wrote last Kevin's parents showed up in Breck to visit and it was AWESOME. They are some of the coolest most genuine and giving people I know. I spent every night hanging out with them and just having great conversation. They gave me an awesome birthday celebration showering me with gifts. I felt like a pampered princess. The whole time thinking you just met me what if you got here and realized you didn't like me? Luckily they are amazing and so much fun. We went to dinner, played Yatzee, walked all over town and just had a great time. After they left Kev was pretty bummed but we managed to bounce back. Since then I have had some hard lessons and some easy ones which combined has made me exhausted. It's weird because I feel like I am in the movie ground hogs day where everyday is the same. I wake up eat breakfast go to work come home and sit on the computer then head to bed. I have been struggling to find a way to spice up my days with different activities. Most of the fun things to do around here either cost money or you need a car to get there. Luckily I was able to meet up with Ali Russsel a friend from school and her friend Hilary who also happens to be from Cali. We went all over Breck snowboarding for the day. They are both so much fun and easy to hang out with. They managed to get me going down blacks on my board which was pretty exciting for me considering I just started boarding this year. Hilary and I hung out this week and snowboarded with my roomie Adam. We didn't last long because our craving for pizza took over completely. We ducked out for a half day and chowed on some delish pizza from Fatty's in town.

On another note I have officially booked my flight home to Cali for May 1 and I could not be more excited about it...seriously cannot wait for Cali sunshine and friends! I cant decide what I am going to do once I get back but I don't mind. I have applied for 3 positions with the US Olympic Committee that I am incredibly excited for. After reading their description I was grinning knowing that this was what I wanted to do next! I'm sure it's a very competitive position to get so I'm not sure how I will fair but for now I will dream about all the awesome things I could get to do working with them. Tonight we have the adopt the interns dinner where a family from the BOEC takes all 12 of us hooligans in and feeds us. I am really looking forward to this, a nice evening away from the house and full of great conversation.

If anyone out there is reading this which I'm not sure anyone besides my mom is please take a look at our website and see what great things the BOEC is doing. Go to www.BOEC.org to check us out and if you feel gifty I am currently fundraising for the 2011 Breckebeiner. This is a 60K nordic skiing event that raises money for student scholarships. Scholarships are awarded to some great people so that they can come ski with us.

Hopefully I will be better at updating this =)

Ciao for now!
