Since I am now back on skis again, I just can't live without it, everybody says that, it seems cliché but it's true. I've been injured for 2 years because of a knee surgery which turned bad, and I can say now how I missed skiing! I'm not afraid to say it's been the 2 most difficult years of my short life!

But now I am back in the game, proud of all my friends who made were there while I was at home, recovering. I'm now getting a new diploma, having lots of good times with my BF and my friends.
