Friday

Wasn't too bad of a day!

Minus the fact that my morning supervisor whom I had never previously worked with, was actually a power hungry army general who got incredibly stressed as soon as there were 2 parties waiting for a table and would snap her fingers at me... She needs a new job.

However, I joined my new friend Mike on a little drive to Canmore, got TIM HORTONS (which i haven't been able to do since I left Toronto almost 2 weeks ago...) and I WON a free coffee. Then he invited me to join him and some others to go night riding at Norquay, which I was extremely excited for, since I hadn't rode for almost a week and a half because of my chipped tailbone.

Friday at Norquay is the only place you can ride really at night, since the hills are just so huge. Therefore there was only one run open, well 2 including park. The park is awesome because it has super baby boxes and rails and tiny jumps (for riders like myself!) and lots of other obstacles for the more experienced... haha. It took a few runs to get my confidence level back up (I've been scared to go fast from fear of falling on my tail), but once I did I had a great time. Needless to say it was a successful night of riding. Not to mention, on the drive up Mt Norquay, there were some elk just chilling on the road... no big deal I guess... (???)

From the top of the lift you can see all of Banff, and the Fairmont, it was pretty beautiful. It was 11 degrees yesterday, blue skies, so nice...

I'm feeling a tad more comfortable now that I've made a few friends.

Today I'm tired and a bit sore, I'm going to watch Lost and probably relax.
Oh and I also got audited for REAL today, and I got perfect! I've being told I'm doing a great job. Good to know.

Would love to hear from anyone!

Love alison
