It´s been a while...







Well, it´s been some time since my last post! I´ve been busy working on my thesis and since I took a turn into a more cultural science direction, my professor felt the need to call me off. Well, that´s how it goes. I have since started to reread my material keeping linguistics a little bit more in mind and things should be on the right track by now, considering that I have a whole week off next week. The weather is shit nasty right now and the forecast not exactly promising, so I should start writing the whole thing by the end of next week at the latest!

Last weekend I spent with my family and got things done! It was a tremendously fun weekened! After an epic train ride I arrived home!
I spent my time climbing and freeriding! On Saturday I took my brother`s big mountain freeride bike for a ride and developed an addiction. I biked everyday, the whole thing peaking with my first visit to the northshore trails and ramps the guys built somewhere in the woods. Without knowing I just speed after my lil bro and all of a sudden I was facing a 5 feet drop! No time to get scared, going at 30 miles per hour! Managed the first two jumps and crashed at the third (confidence or ignorance had disappeared by that!) Didn´t do anything serious to my body though! Psyched!
Rode back with my lil bro and had a pretty awesome time!
The day after we went bouldering at the same spot that I had been to two days prior. Glees is slowly turning into one of my favorites! We had a rad day bouldering and went home all satisfied and a little shook up...the latter because I felt tempted to try a serious highball and took two pretty gnarly falls!

Today we´ll try to get the better of the weather and climb outside, even if last night was a constant downpour of rain! We´ll see!
