Man, it’s been a while since I sat down to write a blog post. I honestly can’t believe that everyone in PLP 12 has survived so long without seeing each other every day (that includes the teachers). I wonder if the dynamic in class will have changed when we switch back into class next Wednesday. To be honest, I’m a bit worried. I have had it way way way too easy for way way way to long. Having a spare and physics is terrible preparation for PLP and precalc. I wonder if my entire work ethic will have changed, or if I will have forgotten yet again the proper use of their, there, and they’re. What I’m really trying to get at is that I am petrified but at the same time I am exhilarated. I am so excited to be reunited with my PLP family. I miss the class debates, and the crazy high standards of work, the high level of thinking and the absolutely no BS policy. Anyway, I wasn’t supposed to talk about this in this email, but it does feel good to have an outlet for these emotions. What I was supposed to talk about was what I have learned.
YAY physics. I have learned physics. I think it’s too complex to write here, and I think it requires too much brain power to figure out how to write the formulas on a laptop, but I have learned that I really enjoy it. I don’t want to jinx it because I have my final test tomorrow, but I feel that once you’ve got the concept everything falls into place. I have just dedicated my spare to working through physics problems, and I honestly don’t even notice the time slip by. It’s been really fun mixing math and science concepts and having to think logically every day. But with all this extra time I have picked up other things to fill my time such as backcountry snowboarding. That’s kind of what I wanted to talk about in this blog post.
I started backcountry snowboarding pretty late in the season, but I’ve defiantly made up for the lost time by heading up the minute the opportunity to is present. I’ve struggled in the past with sticking to activities, but I feel that with backcountry snowboarding I won’t have this problem because, 1. I sunk a down payment on a house on that gear, and 2. I really love it. I’m hoping to join the mountaineering and backcountry clubs at university where I will be able to meet a bunch of likeminded people. So, I’m pretty excited. Aside from that I haven’t been doing much, scared and excited to get back into trickier classes. And a bit in shock that I will be graduating Seycove in less than 3 months. Crazy.
Anyway thank you for reading my spiel and I’ll definitely be writing more commonly in here now as well.
