Spring Break Fin

The wanky English dude who runs this place got me to help him set up a wireless access point for him. I hoped it might get some privileges like free internet access, but instead I keep being blamed anytime something goes wrong with the computers. Next time I'm telling him my going rate is $60 an hour.

On the upside I got to watch LOST last night, however I think it didn't win me any friends with a guy named Kieran who repeatedly complained loudly to change the channel. But to be fair he didn't like Robocop either so he's probably a douche bag.

Recent stats confirm that there are exactly 3 people reading my blog. Apparently my readership is demanding video blogs, which is something I hope to rectify in the near future.

Spring Break has come to a close for the Canadian students. Some of those girls are as dumb as Americans. Especially the blonde ones.

Spring Break comes to town

A group of 50 girls from Victoria University checked into the hostel last night. That's Victoria as in Victoria Island, but most people call it Vancouver Island. They're on the Canadian equivalent of Spring Break except they call it Reading Week. Apparently not a lot of reading is done in that time.

So the place is no longer dominated by Australian's but sometimes it's like I haven't left home. They stream TripleJ and play it over the stereo in the kitchen.

The weather is really good at the moment. It was 9C today which is pretty warm for a ski field. I don't know how long the ski season will last if this weather keeps up.

I'm finding it hard to get used to my new skis because they're a bit longer (and therefore faster) than I'm used to. I went to the ski repair store today and asked them if there is a way to make my skiers slower and they just laughed at me.
