Went snowboarding last week.
I rocked.
So me and some friends road tripped up to New Mexico for an eventful time! We took a day driving up to AngelFire, NM. Everything closes at 3pm apparently so we all went to bed hungry.
Next morning, real food. Then hit the slopes! 4pm, went to the donkey-est grocery store in town. Had no bread or honey mustard or chicken (good chicken), but we managed to make some amazing Parmesan Chicken and Fettucine that night. Errbody was super tired that night and went to bed fairly early at like midnight.
I woke up early to make breakfast for everyone... as an apology for going to ditch them the rest of the day as I try to hit up the super crazy black diamonds. I even packed a lunch in my backpack so I won't waste any time buying food.
Ice. Everything was ice. I got 2 nice gashes on my board before I decided to head back down the mountain. Luckily, errbody was hungry and what not and I met them all up for lunch. Then we all headed up to the top of the mountain and started putting the Winter Olympics to shame!
The girls went snow tubing as the guys .... took showers... and napped. EXTREME!
On the menu for dinner was an amazing lasagna where domination in an intense game of UNO occured, by ME! MUWAAHAHHA!!
Sleep.
I was awoken butt early in the morning. Why you ask? My friend was bored. That is all.
We all get up, pack up, and head to Taos. It's very scenic and we take pictures along the way and all through Taos. It was so serene and calm and you could feel the power of nature.
We get into town and get some authentic New Mexican food (with blue corn!), then headed to the San Fransisco de Asis mission church. It was made in like 1800 out of adobe, pretty cool. Went souvenir shopping at the main plaza. Met this crazy lady. Saw some boobies. Lips were chapped.
Then went to this bridge over the Rio Grande River where there was amazing sunset.... unfortunately we were too busy goofing off to notice it too long.
We take the long way back because we heard that the road was haunted. Nothing happened.
Then we go to the only nice restaurant in town called The Love Apple, which in France is the tomato. As we are waiting outside by the firepit, one of our Persian moms remind us that it is Char-Shambe-Soori that night.
The tradition is that the Tuesday night before the persian new year, one must jump over fires so that the evil and bad spirits following you are burned away so you can start the new year fresh! Well, we had a fire pit but it was kinda tall so I had to pick everyone up over the fire one by one. Good times! It was funny trying to explain to the waitress what we were doing.
We went to the only cantina afterwards to see what the nightlife was all about. And it was all about...nothing.
Earlier that day, I had stole one of the girls' keycards. When we went our separate ways, the guys decided to "haunt" the girls. Our plan was to get into their room and make subtle noises here and there to freak them out. Well, they had chain locked their door so the key didn't work. We just scratched the door, knocked on their back window, and made a weird rock sculpture outside their door. Soon enough, they started calling us. We pretended to be asleep. We all went over there and they... were... SCARED.
It would have been perfect if we didn't wake up the neighbors and they came knocking, but OH WELL!
Next morning went to a biosctucture where they made houses out of recyclables. Then went on a nature hike up a mountain, took some glamour shots and hit the road!
2 hours outside of Austin was fun when our car broke down. Luckily, it wasn't that big a deal (....we think) and we made it home.
Just the kind of place a douchebag would fit in!
Please note the UBER cool RED beanie and not one, but need for TWO pairs of sunglasses! Only a really BEAST kind of guy can pull a pose like that.
