the first time i went skiing my cousin took me on a blue square and i didn't know how to stop so i would fall down like every 20 feet, and i was a fourth of the way down when someone pushed me into a ditch on the side of the trail. When i got up i decide to just go and walk down the mountain, and that took like 2 hours. After the ski trip was over my neck was sore so i went to the doctors to find out i sprained my neck.
then one of the last times i went skiing i went off a jump and landed on ice and went carimiming into a fallen down boarder and i fell and sprained my ancle.
Every time i go skiing i hurt myself so i wonder what will happen next week.

Ooh, that hiking down the hill story made me remember what me and my silly friends did on our trip! We were in 8th grade, so that would've made us... 13/14. We didn't feel like waiting in the line for the chairlift, so we hiked UP the mountain to "save time"!
I'm not even kidding. We hiked all the way up, and it took us like an hour. When we got up there, we were WAY too tired to ski down, so we all sat down in a little circle by a stream and talked for another hour or so before skiing back down.
... I'm trying to remember what we did with our skis while we hiked up... we obviously either carried them or wore them. Either way, my god we were stupid.
We had fun, though!
Oh yeah, almost forgot to mention, the mountain was covered in ice that day... not snow. Was my first day ever skiing, too. Amazingly, I did better on the ice than the next day on the fresh snow. Think the snow was what caused me to lose control and ski into that fence.
But anyway, the ice obviously made it much MUCH harder to hike up the mountain.
