It's fun learning to snowboard as soon as you get it right. I kept panicking when I started to turn as I sped up, and this was just on the training slope. I also didn't lean onto the leading front foot, which is used for turning. When I finally relaxed and let the feet do the worked, it came about so easily.
Committing to each turn was simply a confidence thing and you needed to be sure of yourself, in an unforced fashion. A put off was sharing the slope with fast skiers and snowboarders, but you couldn't think of that too much.
The Antics - I nearly went in between a lady's skiing legs, went sideways a shave almost too close to a snowboard, and fell over on the hard compacted snow. You just can't slow down going sideways - well maybe you can by turning up the hill, but then you fall backwards/forwards depending on which way you are facing.
I'm still not Main Slope Ready at The snow Centre, in Hemel, but that's because it's only my 2nd lesson.
If you ever think of snowboarding/skiing, take a spare t-shirt as you'll be soaking wet from over heating in the waterproofs.

Astrology - Personal Findings
I read a lot of books on astrology and find to recognise myself with the information I see. I do not like the daily horoscopes but prefer to realize my self, based on planetry influences. I know of 4 signs. Sun, Ascendant, Moon, Venus. The rest are planet signs etc and is too much to know at once. I also see an interest that compatibility is not just the Sun sign (westerners only see of having the one). Compatibility, relationship wise, would be determined based on ALL of the signs not just the Sun sign.
I have Sun in Aries, Libra in Ascendant, Venus in Pisces, and Moon in Cancer. The basic sign being Aries. The rising sign edits the basic sign as the translator from thought to action. If I had 'Double Aries' it would be the case of 'what you see is what you get'. My rising sign is opposite, which makes me a quiet and sensitive type of Aries, with less exertive qualities than usual.
With the Venus in Pisces, I tend to prefer slow and meaningful enjoyment, getting deep interests and knowhow into whatever I get myself into. The moon in Cancer indicates my way of living, as I tend to look forward to change and hate a dirty, messy squalor of a home.
Recent Flying Dream only 6'' off the ground!
I dreamt I was flying, but not very high off the ground. It was the closest to reality dream I have ever had. I could have been on ice sliding it was that close to the ground, but definately the same free and easy glide I got from higher flying dreams when younger.
It really pays to go to bed early (10.30pm), have dinner between ^ and 7pm and tidy the bedroom.
I also did new ballet beginners exercise which was about learning a routine. Wow, I felt good, so good I awoke at 5pm, had to go back to sleep though. Shame the day got worse, especially taking the mess back up to the loft at my parents going up steep ladder with heavy boxes.
Bed time after 11pm starts to degrade in quality and after 1 to 1:30pm is pure punishment for at least the next day. The effects are a lot like a hangover that gets WORSE the day goes on.
It's 2pm now because I did nothing out and about, felt tired with withdrawn feelings, so watched TV since 6pm. I seem to fail on Day off from work - too much free will I suppose, no time restrictions etc.
