Cliché is defined as "a trite, or stereotyped expression" they have become thus because they never fail. Belief is the key to success... born in waterloo, i moved to the small village of Eden Mills just outside of guelph for the beggining of the 21st century. i started cross country skiing roughly at the age of 2 or 3 and ever since it has been part of my life one way or another. at the age of 7 i entered my first competition and at that time it was always just for the fun. at the age of 10 imoved to france for a year with my sister where we both took part in school and completed my first year without any skiing, which it turns out might have cost me a bit of time when i decided to get more serious into it when i came back, because i was at the back of the pack in every race when i had come back from france. i was however, tenatious in the years after that big and life changing experience. i kept to it, and slowly, but steadly climbed up the field of skiers, which brings me to where i am now.

work, and the move, and finding a place, and finding a job, and....figuring out my life of course

So, today as it stands, I have a flight to Vancouver, but that remains about it. 10 days away from my move I am looking for a place to live and looking for a job out there. Currently I am finishing up my work here at Highlands Nordic which has been amazingly fun, busy and enlightening. I think that I have learned much more in my one year at highlands, that is useful, than my four years in Highschool. That being said I am not against schooling, in fact I think it is totally necessary, but it just shows that the quality of learning is about 10 time better in the real world...I think most people would agree with that. Now I have put myself into a situation which, come to think of it, is becoming very fermiliar...diving blind into another world. This time, it is whistler and the training center. I seem to believe that things just work out, but I have to say it gets more and more stressful as the moves get bigger. I am not going to lie, I do believe that things will always end up working out, sometimes you just have to be patient. It is just the stress of believing in your decisions that makes most people not like these situations....or so I think. I have a few ideas about where I might live, and a couple of thoughts about possible jobs, but for now they remain thoughts, it is an adventure that I am getting myself into so I have to remember that. there is the latest view into my life, next update will likely be from whistler! cheers, C.
