A butterfly friend. It landed on me 20+ times, so I had to kindly let it know that it would be smashed by my backpack (inadvertently) if it didn’t flutter away. That along with the erratic flailing that followed sent my butterfly friend on its way.</p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-WTd5sBqC_Zc/UfmVRjLc3NI/AAAAAAAABDk/vU2aZxC-j-4/s1600-h/Butterfly%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img title="Butterfly" style="border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; float: none; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin-left: auto; display: block; padding-right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" border="0" alt="Butterfly" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-JhAosIaNYkQ/UfmVTDWR4RI/AAAAAAAABDs/uhq_xkH0bQU/Butterfly_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="467" height="634"></a></p> <p>(The little white thing on my shoulder is the butterfly!)</p> Cristyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14949076859201782462noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6002745410129625765.post-16308858336839201012013-06-26T01:48:00.001-04:002013-07-19T13:50:04.757-04:00SheJumps Regional Coordinator<p>I’ve been named the Southeast SheJumps Regional Coordinator!

In the meantime, I want to share my edits from this year’s winter ski trip. First I created this:</p> <div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; width: 551px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-top: 0px" id="scid:5737277B-5D6D-4f48-ABFC-DD9C333F4C5D:379cc584-b955-400d-8cfb-e9175e3d3fe5" class="wlWriterEditableSmartContent"><div id="e2ebc73e-a35b-4793-8682-c6fabaa4701e" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; display: inline;"><div><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFWsRNMx_-M" target="_new"><img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-N9ymcG2eIUk/UQxxGx39QAI/AAAAAAAABAc/jHz2D4oY2i4/videodeed2dbbc56e%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-style: none" galleryimg="no" onload="var downlevelDiv = document.getElementById('e2ebc73e-a35b-4793-8682-c6fabaa4701e'); downlevelDiv.innerHTML = "<div><object width=\"551\" height=\"309\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/JFWsRNMx_-M?hl=en&hd=1\"><\/param><embed src=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/JFWsRNMx_-M?hl=en&hd=1\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"551\" height=\"309\"><\/embed><\/object><\/div>";" alt=""></a></div></div></div> <p>Then, I decided I had to make a video to “This Is What Makes Us Girls.” This song seems to jab at girls through a negative view of where their passion lies. This girl’s passion lies in being active in the outdoors, specifically skiing…so this is what makes me a girl!</p> <div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; width: 549px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-top: 0px" id="scid:5737277B-5D6D-4f48-ABFC-DD9C333F4C5D:9c9ff891-0892-4ca6-bd8a-6d2046aaee80" class="wlWriterEditableSmartContent"><div id="b816c8b0-1145-4d44-a905-d72b229711ba" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; display: inline;"><div><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnQ3415HgAE" target="_new"><img src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-z3r8Gs0Rp6s/UQxtPRfOd1I/AAAAAAAABAk/_9dMImWXf9I/video6674183d3115%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-style: none" galleryimg="no" onload="var downlevelDiv = document.getElementById('b816c8b0-1145-4d44-a905-d72b229711ba'); downlevelDiv.innerHTML = "<div><object width=\"549\" height=\"308\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/AnQ3415HgAE?hl=en&hd=1\"><\/param><embed src=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/AnQ3415HgAE?hl=en&hd=1\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"549\" height=\"308\"><\/embed><\/object><\/div>";" alt=""></a></div></div></div> <p>To so many people skiing, surfing, running, <fill in the blank> “like a girl” is an insult. And compliments on athletic ability to women are usually followed by “for a girl,” as in you’re a good swimmer…for a girl. That insulting qualifier ultimately has caused many female athletes to want to distance themselves from the thought of being “like a girl” in the world of sports. But, to me “being a girl” is a compliment. Girls have the ability to go hard and be tough athletes while still maintaining a level of grace and elegance that’s unique to the fairer sex. So I am proud to ski like a girl!</p> Cristyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14949076859201782462noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6002745410129625765.post-5044236431760362542013-01-21T03:33:00.001-05:002013-01-21T03:33:02.177-05:00This is what I consider a good time!<p>This winter I spent about 2.5 weeks in Big Sky on a ski trip!
