My CHRISTMAS/SLAVIQ Break

The candy I received.

My cousin Peter after a long, fun night of slaviqing. I was slaviqing with him too and I also went to school that day, but I didn't sleep as much as him during class.

All the fun started on January 7th. But before January 7th, I stayed home, read books and visited people. Not very exciting in my opinion. It's boring doing the same things everyday: watching TV, hanging out with the same old people, riding around, but on January 7th that all changes.

It starts with church, but I didn't go to church because I had basketball practice at 5 p.m., working hard and sweating, getting into shape for that week's basketball game down in Tuluksak, where the refs are one-sided, well only one of them, and where the people treat us with respect. So I didn't get to Slaviq until Saturday, after we returned. The Tuluksakers were very nice. A woman gave us candy when we went to her store located behind her house. The soda they were selling at the school were outrageous! Because the student store only had diet soda, a girl about my age was selling candy and soda- everything for 2 dollars each! When I realized that everything was 2 dollars I said "See ya." I wasn't going to support their greediness, no matter how much I wanted that soda.

When we came back from Tuluksak, all bruised up and myself with a huge floor burn on my knee, I started Slaviqing because there was only 4 more days left to Slaviq. On Sunday, I wanted to go to Upper to Slaviq but I didn't have a ride and I was lazy to walk up because that night it was blizzardy- the clouds just rolled in and it was very windy making it very chilly so I just stayed in Lower to Slaviq with the green star. I went home after 4 a.m. very tired from standing most of the time and trying to learn how to sing.

The next day- Monday- I caught a ride with my friend with his awesome Summit 700. We went to upper and followed the star until 7:30 a.m. getting more tired by the hour. But my friend was more tired because the night before he stayed up all night, and I can't imagine how he made it through that day. I went home and got ready for school. They were going to Marcus's house next, so instead of going to school I went there because I wanted his delicious moose jerky. It was a long day at school. That's where, instead of doing this assignment, I slept on the floor in the VTC room, snoring away according to Josephine. LOL! This years Slaviq was awesome.

good blog, made me wish there was more to read. How did the game in Tuluksak go? How many houses did you Slaviq at? I miss Slaviq in Russian Mission---it was always lots of fun. I will score your blog and send you an email.
