The other day me and my brother went skiing. It was a gorgeous day! We were actually hot! Anyway, it was really busy that day because, well, I guess it was a Saturday. And when it's busy you this get paired up with all sorts of people on the ski lift!
There were some guys with English accents skiing! It was hilarious! We overheard them speaking all English like and they were saying stuff like "That's rubbish!" and "Quick now there!". Good times. What I wouldn't give to have an awesome accent like that!!
Ok, there was also this little boy probably around 12 that we went up on the ski lift with. He loved to talk! He wouldn't stop blabbing! It was mostly about something he did. One of the odd things he said was "Oh man! I am such a bad boy! I have two homework assignments to do and I still haven't done them!". Then the other guy on the ski lift (he wasn't related or didn't even know the kid) told him that he better get them done. Then the kid said "No silly! I'm skiing!". It was all sort of strange.
Another odd person we went on the ski lift was this guy we couldn't understand. He was speaking some strange foreign language to people below us. Me and Tyler just continued talking since he couldn't understand us. Actually, he might have been able to understand us. Well, isn't that awkward?
Not everyone we went up with was weird, there was a nice couple who was skiing with their family for the day. They ended up living in the same general area as us! (When you live in the country "the same general area" is usually a 100 km radius.) They even ended up knowing our Aunt and Uncle......and our Uncle's brother....and my Uncle's brother's mom. Kind of creepy but they were quite nice and the guy had a pretty decent sense of humor!
Well, since it was only me and my brother skiing and my mom was off in a city nearby she had given me my dad's cell phone. We had some good times with that cell phone! My dad has a bunch of weird ring tones that came with the phone. So me and my brother decided we were going to listen to them while we were on the ski lift. The people on the car ahead of us kept turning around to see where the noise was coming from. As soon as they turned around we would shut off the ring tones. When they turned back to facing the front we turned them back on. We repeated this for awhile! Then my brother had an idea. He convinced me to ski down the hill with this hill billyish army ringer going. These were loud ring tones so there was no way you wouldn't hear it! So I went down the hill making a fool of myself but I just thought to myself, when am I ever going to see these people again?
Overall we had a great time, odd but great!
I have sort of tradition in skiing to pick out a person randomly and see how many times you run into him or her. (Some of you may be thinking that it is kind of creepy but oh well.) I picked this guy with flashy red pants, sorta hard to miss. I just ended up calling him "red". We ran into red about 6 times that day, some at more pleasant times than others
