Potato Bag

Something my old friend found. :3 I'm going to do this, as I need to start working out. XD

The Potato Bag!
Here's a little tip that we thought would be interesting to share with you all to build up your upper body strength. It's really easy and takes no time at all but works a treat.
Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side. With a 2kg potato bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax.
Each day, you'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit longer.
After a couple of weeks, move up to 5kg potato bags.
Then try 10kg potato bags and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 20kg potato bag in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute. (we are very proud, we are at this level)
After you feel confident at this level, put a potato in each of the bags.

Skiing Vacation

Sorry peoples, I haven't been writing much. First off, I kinda slacked off on writing on this blog 'cuz of winter break...and a skiing vacation. Afterwards, I got back and was pretty much lazing off, not wanting to do anything related to education, including my blog. :P So there's my excuse for the complainers out there << my sister and friend ~~ Anyways, I have decided that this post will be dedicated to my skiing trip :P
     We went to Lake Tahoe on a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong drive. It took 8 hours!!!!!!!!! That might not be too long for some people, but we left at 2:00 AM and I was jammed in the back of the car with all the luggage. T-T When I woke up, my legs were numb from putting them on top of the luggage, and my butt was even number (more numb? o-o) 'cuz I was in the most UNCOMFORTABLE position. 
     Well, eventually there was SNOW!!!!!!!!! As soon as we got to Tahoe, we didn't even go to our lodge or anything. We went straight to renting skis (expensive!) and getting ski tickets (also expensive!), and then went skiing (fun, and worth it!)!!! I'm not going to go through details (too lazy >.>), but basically the snow was REALLY good, and the temperature was just warm enough that my butt didn't freeze off, so made it really easy to ski down slopes. :3 I skied with my sister and brother, who are really good, but I managed to ski at their pace (somewhat) by following their tracks. When we were done, we went to our hotel room, which was AWESOME!!! It was HUGE for a hotel room, but I'm not going to go through the details again. All I know was that is was really awesome, but eventually we moved to a casino.
     The most memorable part of my skiing trip was when my sister and brother and I went to the other side of the mountain to ski, and I lost a ski. Basically, we were skiing, and I slipped a long way down, and my skis were still at the top of the mountain, so I climbed up, got my skis, went to a tree, and put on my skis. Fun right? Well, generally, the ski trip was really fun, so it's ok. :P And that is the story of my skiing trip.
