school, skiing and other stuff

So the whole break is over and the school madness stated after only 1 ½ weeks…. 

My trimester right now is pretty hard. I don´t know if I already told you about my classes but here again.

My schedule is

1^st Yearbook

2^nd calculus

3^rd English 12^th grade

4^th Biology

5^th American Sign Language

Ice fishing houses & cars on the lake

I need to do a lot of homework for each of these classes and that’s why I can´t swim after school. My sister Liz and I decided to go to a fitness studio before school. It sounds crazy but it is actually really fun, because you are full of energy when you get to school. It is kind of hard to wake up so early, but exercises are really fun and good for your body. During the last weeks without swimming and other sport I got a “chubby” and I want to be in good shape, when the spring season is going to start.

Last week we had to time for the boys swim and dive team. It’s the girls captain´s job to find enough timer (at least 7) and at the end we were over 16 so that we were able to time in groups and that made the whole meet not so boring.

the "pro"-skiers

Over New Year we were at the cabin ice fishing and skiing. We drove up there and went to a close and had all the gear with us. I was surprised because on the first day I fall only 3 times (first downhill). After this everything went very well. The next morning I woke up I felt that I did something the other day…. But the cure is to keep on and do more sport. That’s why we went skiing again. It was almost -18° C outside and we were still skiing although we made a bit more hot chocolate breaks. 

Manakato vs. Providence

Last weekend we were in Mankato for a hockey weekend. We stayed in a Hilton hotel with really nice room service. After having dinner in the bed we went to a hockey collage hockey game. It was really fun although there was a wired fan who cheered like crazy. For us it was hilarious, because she was drunk, but at the end we just wanted the other team to score to see how she reacts. 

College Hockey game

In the morning we had breakfast (not in the bed) and went to another home and drove back home. 

And a new week started with a lot of other stuff that keeps me busy.

I hope your school time started again and that you are not so tired.
