Dude, Jibber you have the greatest life in the world...you float around from place to place skiiing..you hardly work..and when you do..its not for long..then you get right back on skiing again...i envy you

jibber · 07-26-2006, 08:08 PM

haha, everybody does. I've decided to come home for the next winter, as i've realized more than ever out here that skiing is what makes me the happiest out of everything I could be doing with my time, and it would kill me to have two summers in a row without one day of skiing in between. So once ski season ends down here, i'll do another spell of backpacking through the south island, make my way back to auckland and fly home to good old calgary just in time for the next ski season. I'll spend the next few months skiing and working part time, hanging with friends, and then dick off to south america for a couple of months before I have to go back to school. hopefully I'll be able to handle two years of a normal life.....

nope. I dont ski. it's just all an elaborate hoax. I walk around wanaka with my skis and get them sharpened to keep up appearances, but basically I just move from hemisphere to hemisphere following the winter for the atmosphere.

haha, no I dont skateboard. I own myself enough on the snow, i shudder to think of the state i'd be in if i tried skating. It would be fun though, tons of my mates out here skate, and there's a nice skatepark right by the lake, but yeah, i'm too much of a pussy, concrete freaks me out.
