Honestly, I've only gone skiing a few times and I'm not really confident in my skills but that's the entire point of this trip.
"I'm not going to care about doing it horribly and just have fun."
I say to myself enthusiastically as I start taking little glides trying to go the same way Claire and my co-workers went.
. . .
Everything is going well. I'm gliding faster than before and honestly, I'm having a lot of fun thanks to Claire helping me every now and then until...
"Ahhh"
I scream as I slip and fall on my butt. I burst into laughter at my own ridicule and finally was able to get myself up after a lot of attempts.
"I look like frosty with all this snow glued to me."
I say dusting the snow off my body before I start skiing again but I'm distracted when I hear a voice.
"Are you okay?"
"You sounded like a dying whale so I came here quickly in case you broke something."
