        "It seems so wierd that you guys use" miles.  Everything works both ways... remember that.  Usually there around (very roughly) 2K's per mile.

        You sound like you got on that board and took off... pretty wicked.  I was getting cracked upside the head too many times to enjoy boarding.  Hmmm, a trip to Utah.... What a wouldn't give for that.  When we visit relatives in Sacramento we always go to Boreal.  It seems pretty good there.  Funny thing though for a ski fanatic I have a major fear of hieghts.  I hate chair lifts.  (sigh).

        i find it funny why skiers and snowboarders hate eath other so much.  Here we get along fine.  The 'boarders got their tricks; we got ours.  I like ski junping a lot better because of the more speed (barely) and the more in-air tricks... plus they look better on camera.

        I took the SAT once (since I'd die to go to the US for my college) and ended up with 1100.  I heard that 1200 gives you a chance at a UC (my preference) and 1300 is close to a guarantee.  UC Davis, Berkely, or LA sounds like they fit my needs.  When (and if) I go the a university I'll be studying Business Admin. or Computer Engineering.  Could your next letter give me some advice for applying and such?  How are you scholarships and grants down there?  My parents are pretty well off but I would REAL

LY like to pay for most if not all of my education myself.  Some hints on the SAT would be great too.  And one more things... What the F&*@ is a Grade Point Average.  My average last year was 5 B's and 3 A's.  What average would that get me.  This info. would be GREATLY APPRECIATED.

        Your school has limited funding for going to Disneyland!?!?!  My god!  We can't afford to blow our noses on grad night (I'm in grade tweleve...a senior I guess).  There are a couple things we do for grad:
                        Dinner (You and your girlfriend and parents)
                                If you "mate" is not graduating she isn't
                                allowed to come. (cheap principle)
                        Dance Pretty Staightfoward
                        Party - Two choices
                                Dry grad- no Alcohol
                                Wet grad- Alcohol

        We live in such sticks that the only thing we can do is get totally blasted for fun (which I do not participate in).  A cruise?  Mexico? Man you don't know how well off you are...  Little fundage?

        My father is a Professional Protrait Photographer.  He owns Seto Studios a 1 Hour-camera-enlargment-potrait-frame shop.  he used to get merits for his photos that he entered in the club Professional Photographers of Canada (America)... Then he had us three.

        Your pessimistic parents sound like they got the same background training as mine.  Everything I do has an article explaining a success (You should do this, son) or a failure (You shouldn't do that, son).  (Double Sigh).
Bungi jumping does have it's limits though ('specially since I'm scared of heights!)
