self explanatory title..

you know you love skiing when, you make perfect tables out of your ice cream or mash potatoes

fail a class cuz you daydream too much and cant really focus on anything other than skiing.

when you ski more days during the winter than you acctually go to school

you pray for rain in town because you know up there it will be snow!

ill post more as i come up with them .. but im sure im not the only one with these kinds of stories :P

when people yell at you to stop talking about skiing

when you pay 20 dollars every friday to goto a gymnastics place just to use the super tramp

you are given a spanish test and you forget what you were supposed to be doing on it so you just draw a skier doing a bow and arrow grab even though you will get a 0

You draw so many skiing related things on the margins of your papers that you can almost convince yourself that you don't suck at drawing.

You slowly discontinue friendships with people that don't ski or snowboard.

You come to school, and talk about the sick edit you saw yesterday before you saw "hi"  to someone.

You imagine an urban setup on everything, including fire escapes, indoor handrails, and anything else that reminds you of skiing.

You jib everything with your feet until people yell at you to stop.

When you are seriously regretting inviting your best friends to your place in the mountains because they are only average skiiers

when your friend's mom offers to let you ride her horses and your first thought is "tow in"

when you wake up panting and sweating from the worst nightmare you have had in years where you're crippled by boot pain on opening day

or this one: https://www.newschoolers.com/web/forums/readthread/thread_id/381282/

I just watched a snowboarding movie and I literally felt kinda sick until I watched TBC and I felt better again.

When you read this thread and realize you want to quote everyone because you do the same eccentric and obsessive things as everyone else.

For The Win:

I had to explain to the guy at the ski shop that even though the SPK boot has only 2 buckles it is in fact a good boot. And he had never heard of Full Tilt boots either.

math class one is funny. 180 360 540 720 etc. Remembering that shit is second nature.
