Beefing up

originally uploaded by himajin.

It's been four years since I've started snowboarding. If I realized how enjoyable this was five years earlier, I could've been a superstar!! Haha... that's not true.
I'm a coward and insecure person. That trait affects my whole life.
Anyway..... I've been beefing up my gear every year disproporsionate to my stamina. This year, Bindings!! . I've been using cheap ones which were included in the beginners set. Not terrible but there were a few times that the boot came off while I was riding. Hope that these bring on the magic.
new bindings:Burton Lexa.

the beginng of the obasan

When you were young, you've never thought that you would get old. I didn't. But truth is just keep inching and inching.
When I got home from the strong wind outside, I was suprised at my messy hair and I saw the scariest thing in the world.
A Wrinkle!!
When I found first one 10 months ago, it was quite shocking and it took a long time to come to terms with it....and I have a second one. It's the most depressing. If I keep getting wrinkles at this pace my face will be covered with them before I'm 40. How can I get my head around this.
OH MY GOD.
