Check out her epic story:
Because of snowboarding... The alarm goes off at 6:00 am. I don't press snooze, no matter how late I was up the night before. If I know that it is going to be a powder day, chances are I'll be so stoked that I'll be awake before my alarm goes off and I will probably skip lunch. Because of snowboarding… I have scars, I have bruises, I have best friends, I talk to police about how it's illegal to "snowboard on handrails", I live for powder bluebird days. Because of snowboarding... I am always happy because unlike pets, or money, I know I'll never lose snowboarding because it's a part of me.
