The reason I asked if you were a first year student is because your statements betray the fact that your too-good attitude is still fresh out the gate. Had you told me you were anything but a first year student, I would have immediately wrote you off as a complete moron. Only because anybody spending more than a year at SFU, while retaining an attitude so full of sunshine, has to be handicapped.
But it's ok, you're still new, so you're allowed to be positive about SFU. Time will probably teach you otherwise. For now let me leave you with this nugget of wisdom. There are no cool skiers at SFU. There is Simon, (Jib_This) but he hates that place enough for him not to count as a student. Actually, Marcus Schalle is a cool guy, but he barely skis. So when you get down to it, there are no cool skiers. Technically I'm still a registered student, despite the whole academic probation fiasco.
So treasure your cheap pass, observe your surroundings, skip class, breath fresh air, smash your face into a wall as often as possible to stay grounded, punch a different elitist TA in the face every day to keep them grounded, then follow your heart, right on out of that place.
Damn I'm so jaded. Sorry. Don't take all of that at face value, learn your own lessons, because at SFU the only lessons are hard lessons. So at least you'll learn them well. Who knows, you might like it. On sunny mornings be sure to always head up to the roof or top level of wherever you are and take a look at Grouse because the view is spectacular. If you pick your spots right you can actually see skiers on the Cut.
Then remember that you never gave a shit about molecular psychokinetics to begin with, turn around, and go skiing.
