may day!

another day off...i really dont know how the education is decent over here with how little we go to class! but somehow it is.
after waking up i went for a nice bike. easy. today was the clearest day yet i think, and it wasnt to clear. on my ride i tried taking pictures of the alps which i could see perfectly, however the camera doesnt show them very well. oh well. one of these days. i got a few ok pictures...

just look closely

my valley


i did a bit of exploring to get the first picture, so my ride was a bit longer than i had planned. i was gonna do 2 hours, but it ended up nearly 2.5. oh well, i went easy. eventually i got home. right when i got home i quick ate some lunch and then headed down to the "beach" to meet some people from my floor. the beach is nothing like a beach i think of. (i already knew this though) because of the lack of sand here it is mostly grassy with trees. and the grass goes right down to some smallish rocks right on the shore. the ones that are to big to go straight over, but to small to walk comfortably on top. so to solve this there are ramps leading into the water. weird, but i guess it works. i prefer the beaches on lake superior more, but at least its water. as well as the ramps there is badmiton courts, volley ball courts, locker rooms, ping pong tables, a snack bar, mini golf...pretty developed, not a place that i can truly relax at just because it is so dang crowded. kinda like everything else here. oh well, itll be nice to have in the summer when it get hot.
and no i did not go swimming, it was not that warm out and the water is still pretty cold. next time maybe. i just played ping pong.
then we came home. i cleaned my room (its amazing how dirty it gets, at olaf i never clean my room and its just fine. weird...)
then i made some alfreado, finally with the right sauce. and soon its bed. tomorrow class and hopefully a racing license.
the only problem i am having right now is that i have been really hungry lightly. thus needing to eat a lot, thus spending more money. grrrr....
