before i left for mexico i got myself nice knee injury during my hockey game. so i nicely twitched ACL, MCL and i got myself meniscus. great. i thought walowing on beaches would do me good (which it did) but it is time for physio. and i am told that i am done with hockey and skiing for this season!! NOOOOOOOOOO! that is the worst thing that could possibly happen!! so out of my depression i figured out that as soon as i get better i need to start doing this sport  www.redbullcrashedice.ca  isn't that great? combination of skiing and hockey? i think i found my ultimate sport!! i wonder what i will break trying that one out!! bahaha

pred tym nez som odisla do mexika som si rozbila koleno pocas hokejoveho zapasu. natrhla som si bocny a krizny kolenny vaz a vraj sa tam nasiel aj jemny meniskus. 'fantasticke'. myslela som si ze to nebude take zle a valanie sa na plazach mi pomoze. co mi teda pomohlo ale po navrate som zacala rehabilitaciu. bolo mi povedane ze som na tuto sezonu skoncila aj s hokejom aj s lyzami. NIEEEEEEEEE!!! nic horsie sa mi nemohlo stat. a tak tu posedavam v depke a prisla som na to ze hned ako mi bude lepsie musim vyskusat tento sport http://www.redbullcrashedice.ca/video
nie je to fantasticke? kombinacia lyzovania a hokeja!! nasla som si svoj ultimatny sport! :-) no, som zvedava co si pri nom dolamem  :-)

ok, so those who stuck around and are on this page are apparently interested in knowing what's up with me. i really don't know how to go about blogging or keeping you up to date ...any suggestions?  i think i will just write what comes to my mind, both in english and in slovak, and will see how it all goes. if it doesn't work out, it is so easy to press delete button. so easy to live in this virtual world.

as i mentioned, i have been living in
canada for past eight years. there are stories, lots of them. there are always stories. some of them could be put here, some of them could not   :-) ehm ehm

first two years were tough. i had to 'do my time' to gain the privilege of becoming a canadian. i graduated from
yukon
college and gained diploma in renewable resources management. the best thing that ever happened to me. it opened up door of possibilities and i found a bunch of good friends.

ever since i came to
canada i started skiing more than i did back in europe. got my backcountry set and started learning about avalanches, snow etc. i also did a bit of climbing, ski patrolling, search and rescue, helicopter training and all kinds of other stuff. but backcountry skiing stays my passion and for last two seasons i have one more and that is ice hockey. I play in our local women league but unfortunately, due to injury, i am out for this season. seems like hockey is a tough game :-)



ok, takze ti co sa dopracovali az sem maju ozaj zaujem sa dozvediet co to ja nacvicujem. ozaj neviem ako to urobit, blogging mi je uplne neznamy ale rada by som byt s kazdym v kontakte. mate nejaky napad? myslim, ze zacnem len pisat ako ma co napadne a uvidime ako to pojde. ak to nebude ono, stlacim magicky gombik 'vymazat' a je to. zivot v tomto virtualnom svete je tak jednoduchy! :-)

ako som uz spomenula, zijem v kanade osem rokov. mam kopu pribehov co by som mohla navypravat. ale mnohe z nich sem zial uviest nemozem :-)) ehm ehm ...hihihihihi ...prve dva roky v kanade boli ako povinna vojna pre chalanov za sociku. ale vsetko preslo a dnes mam vo vrecku kanadsky pas       ;-)  podarilo sa mi ukoncit skolu a ziskat diplom v manazmente obnovitelnych zdrojov. skola mi otvorila dvere mnohych moznosti a ziskala som niekolko dobrych priatelov.   

odkedy som prisla do kanady zacala som sa viac venovat lyzovaniu. zacala som sa ucit o lavinach, snehu atd. tiez som sa chvilku venovala lezeniu, pracovala som ako lyziarsky zachranar, search and rescue, mam za sebou helikopterovy vycvik, a kopu dalsich hluposti :-) ale to lyzovanie zostava mojou najvacsou zalubou a posledne dve sezony mam o jednu viac a tou je ladovy hokej. hrajem v nasej miestnej zenskej lige ale podarilo sa mi zranit takze som s touto sezonou skoncila. toz, hokej je tvrda hra.
