haha, no, not a pair of skis. I love skiing, and it's what I revolve my life around right now, but i know realistically that it wouldnt be as meaningful 30 years down the road. the one i'm getting has more to do with how i live my life, and the beliefs and philosophies that I try to live up to. it's more of a reminder of what's important to me, and what should always be important to me, and a reminder never to let fear and doubt get in the way of something I truly want.
