You may notice that there is a significant lapse of time between my sister's last post and this one. I hope you all weren't too worried. Let me assure you that we are all happy and healthy. Well... we are now.

You see, the weekend before last we all went on a nice relaxing skiing retreat. The weather was great and the skiing was a lot of fun. None of us really having a mentionable amount of experience on the slopes, I think we all did really well. This may have been to our awesome instructor, my sister's co-teacher, Kim Yang Il, who is one of the nicest and most super cool people in the world (you will soon understand what I mean). The first day was mostly dedicated to getting used to the skis themselves and that evening was dedicated to recovering and exploring the resort in our pj's. Then the next morning, after filling up on a good healthy breakfast of Dunkin Doughnuts and painfully cramming our feet into our boots, we were off! The morning went really well. Except for me almost crashing Unnie and me getting stuck in the wall-barrior-thing to avoid Christopher, we were having a very fun, incident free, time. We quickly became hungry for lunch after several really successful runs. We thought it would be nice and pretty to take the gondola up to the top of the mountain and have lunch at the restaurant up there. We were so oblivious to the dangers that lie at the top of the mountain. Dun Dun Dun.

Incident #1: Christopher was super excited to see "Chili hotdog" on the menu and gobbled one down before the rest of us had sat down.

RESULT: Vomit on everything in the back seat of Yang Il's car (including me), and a very sick food poisoned little boy for the next 48 hours.

Incident #2: On our way outside to take a cute sibling picture before heading back down the mountain, I saw several people slip on this patch of ice disguised as a safe route out of the building. Two of whom (one being my sister) hit their heads. One was wearing a helmet and was fine. The other one however, knocked her silly self out.

RESULT: Concussion, vomiting when moved, a separated disk in neck, and (not going to lie) a very worried little sister.

Well, that was at least the initial result; my sister is fine now. She did hit her head really hard and has one more day of physical therapy for her neck, but is doing really well. Her head is not hurting anymore. Just some pain in her neck.

And Christopher of course is all better (except for a minor cold). When he realized he was over his food poisoning he dancing on the bed, jumping up and down shouting, "I am better! I am better!"

I am so happy to have my siblings back in working order now; the first couple days after the ski trip were just a tad stressful, what with living in an infirmary and all...
