No big deal.

Last shot of my vacation from the top of Seventh Heaven on Blackhomb mountain, (just for your eyes Brodes).
Meanwhile, back in my wee little room, I have been enjoying the comfort of online reruns and cozy slippers before the homework groove picks up. It has been lovely to have some time to catch up with some pals after my five weeks of hibernation. 
Now that I've reaped winter for all it's got, this cold weather needs to beat it. The long windy walk to school is certainly not helping my itching summer weather craving. Summer this year should be nothing shy of eventful. With mine and Brodie's, both elaborate and extensive, to-do list, I struggle to believe I will have any time for some shut-eye. Here it is, just incase we miss something.

Summer 2009:
  • Walk around the entire perimeter of Victoria Beach, including Elk island and any other obstacles, (making sufficient rest breaks along the way). 
  • Make hand-made periogies.
  • HP marathon, (along with many other movies).
  • Trekk down to the city to watch HP 6 in theatres. 
  • Eat: 
a) carrots and almond butter
b) avocado
c) blueberries (in any form, or by themselves)
d) all of the above, combined, if you feel like a daredevil. 
  • Paint a few masterpieces, "one for my room and one for yours."
Future summers:
  • Road trip across America to the HP amusement park in Florida, no big deal. 
Time for bed! Pilates was exhausting.
kisses.

Reset your relaxation button.

So here we are. Still in Whistler. Who'd have thought this place would have been such a blast that we would delay getting back to the real world for a couple of days? Thanks to our lovely new Kiwi friends, we have decided to head back to New York City next weekend. School life, cell-phone-bill-paying, apartment hunting and all the hustle and bustle can wait for another week.
kisses from D & L

La joie.

So, the kick off to the holidays have been fun! Nice to be back with the family and a white Christmas was lovely. First day on the slopes today and man am I ever exhausted! We jumped in the hot tub right after a well deserved apres ski beer and I feel like I could go straight to bed. 
Cousin Heather and family were meant to arrive on Christmas day but thanks to this crazy weather their flights were cancelled! They should hopefully get up here Sunday night!

It never snows in Vancouver,

Liked these photos. Thought I would share. 
Maybe it was a silly idea to go out to a party in Brooklyn the night before my long flight. I have been napping all weekend to catch up on sleep! Finals week was brutal, hence the lack of posts, but we all made it through alive. 
Hope everyone's break is going well. Send me some news.
kiss, D
P.s. was slightly shocked to arrive to the biggest snowfall in Vancouver in 30 years. Hope some more makes it up to Whistler soon - could use a bit more up here on the slopes!
