after finishing my jamaica update i didnt really have the patience to do a whole other one, plus i wanted to go, so.
anyways, on we go to my next trip, and a very drastic weather change to go with it
so lucy showed me these great socks she had on the way up to mammoth.
hahahaha, goggles.
dont be fooled by its ordinary appearence, this may just look like a coffee maker, but it is much more. on the first morning we were all in the kitchen trying to find everything for breakfast, and my mom didnt know how to work the coffe maker, so she starts pressing some buttons, and then, a voice said, "Press on to start." or something like that anyways. Well we had nooooo idea what the hell was going on, cause usually when you press a button on a coffee maker you dont expect it to talk back to you. so after pressing that button some more times to find out where the voice was coming from, we realized it was coming from the phone. we dont know why the coffee maker was connected to the phone, but it was a really funny/creepy way to start off the trip.
the first day up there was a total blizzard so we were kinda stuck in the cabin most of the day, but the second it stopped we ran out to make a snowman. this guy had a name, but i kinda forgot it. damn it. my sister and her friend made one too. but it was more like a snow goblin. i forgot his name as well. but heres a little bit of a taste of what you get when you have two art students making a snowman.
has a fucking bellybutton. and fingers, and eyelids, and even that little dent above his lip. what the fuck. no wonder it took them like an hour.
here they are with their creation.
its a winter wonder land/ christmas town!
mammoth is so pretty. i love it.
so the next day, when we could actually go out, we met up with sophie and found this guy.
day three: not a whole lot of visibility. this i took while in the lodge for second breakfast after taking a sick fall on chair one. actually, i fell because i couldnt see the ground, and what i mean is, i was going and i wanted to touch my hand to the moutain to have a sense of the ground, becaue seriously you couldnt see almost anything. so im going and im leaning over and i realize that i cant differenciate the ground from the wind blowing 3 inches from my face, because the wind was blowing all the snow around and everything was the same color, so eventually i guess i found the ground or something but i just like, flipped over and rolled down the hill for a while. i started facing the ground when i was still up on my board and i ended up facing the sky, so, yeah that kinda hurt.
so that was our last day out, the next day (new years eve) we left and were so thankful to not have to be wearing 9827087459823745 layers when we got out of the car.
so anyways, that night i hitched a ride over to nathans with david for my favorite new years eve ever.
we watched chapelle's show, smoked a shitload of hooka, the guys drank a little, and neema made us watch his bad movie called like spinal tap or something. then we went downstairs and played monopoly. neema kicked all our asses, nathan and i had to join forces once to try to stop him
so thats andrew wiht a rudolf nose on his face. i swear it lights up.
and then around 3 or something evan and all his friends came home, so we stayed up later so we could all hang out. i made everybody some mac n cheese and then we started playing monopoly again, but evan got mad and told us that lynn said we had to go to sleep or go home because we were too lound (secret: evan woke her up).
here are just some random pictures that i didnt really have a place for anywhere else.
charlotte bought this for emily when she went to the collapse exhibit. hahahahahah. it was so great.
yeah, leo knows whats hot down here.
ohhh, lola is getting so big now! i wish she was still really little.
this was me and samantha's little tree named neville on christmas day. isnt he cute with all his little presents.
anyways, more later, but like i said, i cant do two updates like this in a row. thats too much cut and paste and shit.
so yeah. tonight is the butcher the cat concert so i will being to that with charlotte as my date and brian as our pimp. should be pretty fucking awesome!
later taters.
