Snowboarding

After couple years of being non-active, I finally got back on track and went snowboarding this weekend. Ever since my Lake Tahoe experience, I have been scared of this sport. I am really proud of myself to have the guts to do it again.

Although I felt like I have fell more than 20 times on my butt, I finally learned how to snowboard, at least in a zigzag manner. When I thought I was ready to step up to the intermediate level, I was scared as hell once I got there. It was not only a physical challenge, but also a mental challenge to my fear. At one point, I was so ready to go home because I keep falling and couldn't get anywhere. It took my bf a lot of counseling before I was willing to take on those slopes. It wasn't so bad after all when I think about it. I just need to overcome my own fear to accomplish anything. Now I can check this off from my "fear list". What's next? Swimming or Roller Coaster?
