Hallo Jungs!
February went by so fast and it’s a good thing. It means spring and summer are coming soon. Woo! I really cannot stand snowstorms and this extreme cold weather anymore :). I had to shovel all the snow off the roof of my house last week again and it’s a pain in the ass to be honest. I want sun, hot weather and to chill by the pool in my swimsuit all day long! Or even better, lay around all day on beautiful California beaches! Days are getting longer too and it is better when you wake up everyday at 6 am. It does not feel like it’s in the middle of the night anymore. During winter, it’s so dark in the morning that it makes you want to just stay in bed, sleep in and skip class he he!
Yes, we lost our match on cpl_strike 11-16 on Thursday. Sorry for making you guys lose all your SK money. Lol I hope it won’t stop anyone to bet on us for our next matches. The bad maps are done with so, let’s play some real CS now :)! Our next match is this Tuesday and it is against a team called Come Get Some, on inferno. We will be practicing all weekend long and be ready for the match. It is hard to practice a lot on weekdays since we all live in different time zones, which sucks a lot. We practice almost everyday anyway but for only 2 or 3 hours. Alice gets home from work at 7pm, which is in fact 9pm for Jso and Mel, and 10pm for me! And since I have class at 8 in the morning everyday, I have to wake up at 6am all the time and I can’t go to bed too late :(.
Springbreak is coming up and I do not have anything crazy planned this year. I will probably sleep a lot, play cs, play basketball to get ready for the playoffs and catch up on all my TV shows and the good movies I missed out on since the holidays because of my crazy college semester. I need some suggestions actually. So, if you saw a good movie and is worth watching/sharing, please leave the title in the comments! I would appreciate that. :D Any kind of movies, it doesn’t matter.
That is it for now. Practice with SK ladies is about to begin.
Sköt om er, take care :]

\o/ welcome
Finally. :D
The wait is over people! \o/ I am really happy to welcome my Canadian friend MEL GRIBBEN to SK Ladies!! You guys might know her because she’s a champion ;) and she won ESWC with SK Ladies in 2007 in Paris. I used to play with her back when we both played for EG.Girls. The team will be able to practice for real from now on. I am excited!
As usual, I am keeping you guys updated about our ESEA league season. We won our second match 16-13 on de_cpl_mill versus Unsung Heroes. Here are the statistics from the match: (http://www.esportsea.com/index.php?s=stats&d=match&id=1128018 and http://www.sk-gaming.com/match/14565). We did not practice that map a lot since at bootcamp, we focused on practicing the maps that we are going to play at tournaments and mill isn’t one of them. Tuscan is in the map rotation instead. The HLTV is up in the files section on the website if you want to watch the match. Our next one will be on cpl_strike (another map I dislike…). And it will be on Thursday February 26th at 8 PST. HLTV will be up 15 minutes before the match so, come watch us and make sure you place your bet on our side! You can see us in action with the new 5th! Thanks Kevin Keelan for being our temporary 5th. :)
College is almost done. Three weeks of classes are now left plus 1 week for spring break. Then, until graduation, I will be working as an intern somewhere I do not know yet. Graduation should be fun. We are going on a cruise where we can see a cool view of my city and downtown Old Quebec, alongside the beautiful Chateau Frontenac and around on the Saint-Lawrence River. Nice dinner, nice view, open bar, dance club on the boat, anyone want to be my date? ;) I already got a NO from my first choice. :(
We are still undefeated in basketball and that means, even though there are two matches left, we actually won the league! \o/ No teams can get ahead of us now so, we are sure to finish in 1st place. The playoffs are coming up. It would be nice to win that as well. It would be a great way to end my basketball career. In 5 years of playing for my college, this is my first 1st place! I am going to miss playing basketball… A LOT. Sadface…
Be happy, people.
Take care.

PS: From the poll results, guys and girls can REALLY just be friends. I guess? …
What should my next poll be about? :P
PS2: A lot of people have been asking for POV demos of me. I don't really have any. The one from cpl_mill wasn't great so I did not upload it :P I just uploaded one right now where I am playing deathmatch from last night, check it out hehe :)!

Pressure.
We are all flying home tonight and I am not looking forward to it so much. A lot of homework is waiting for me... I’m sitting here waiting for the girls to get ready. I woke up early because I can’t sleep when there’s light in the room. The sun just went straight into our eyes. Not good! I slept really well though. Jenny is baking brownies right now and it smells amazing! I hope I can get a piece! he he.
The weekend went by really fast. It was a lot of fun with the girls and our friends. We got a lot of practice done. Many people asked me if we went out to clubs/bars since Chicago has supposedly a crazy nightlife. Well no, we did not go clubbing. We had to babysit Benita who is only 16 years old! :P Just kidding! SK|Tobi was with us at the SteelSeries office the whole weekend. He took care of everything for our bootcamp and even got us Starbucks to make sure we would keep headshotting. (I love Starbucks! Grande Mocha with whipped cream, mmM!) He was our photographer and took literally millions of pictures since we’re all very picky. Poor guy! He also had to listen to 4 girls/1guy screaming for 12 hours a day. Thanks for your patience, Tobi! Thanks to da_bears and aZn for all the help and Chris because he is my homie and is giving me a ride to the airport. haha
SK ladies have officially started the season in the ESEA league last week. The first match went really well. We won 16-3 on de_train. The statistics are up on the ESEA website. (http://www.esportsea.eu/index.php?s=stats&d=match&id=1118467) We will have a match every week. Our next one is scheduled for Thursday February 19th at 19:30 PST and it will be on de_cpl_mill.
Keep leaving us comments! We enjoy reading them a lot!!

PS: Jenny makes the best brownies! It was yummy.

College is owning me right now. So much homework and exams after only 2 weeks of class. But the good news is that there are only 6 more weeks to go!! I pretty much spend all week long either in class or at the library to work on projects with my amazing classmates. Basketball games have started again and we had two games last week. I'm getting back in shape! Twice a week, we have practice with the coaches and one individual practice. I usually just go to the gym. (Or, I become really lazy and go home to watch Grey's Anatomy, my new tvshow addiction!! So good!) Running outside would be a good idea but I would freeze to death :). Yes, it's still very cold! Our basketball record right now is 10 victories - 0 loss. Season is about to end and playoffs are in less than a month. We're really good this year and we should be able to win it all without a single loss! *Knocks on wood*
SK ladies just registered to play in the ESEA league, season 2. You guys will be able to see us play really soon. We are still trying to schedule our first match which should be played anytime next week. We will be playing a team called Dooms Day on de_train. We will announce when it is as soon as it is all fixed.
The girls and I, minus Jso who already lives there, will be traveling to Chicago, Illinois, really soon (10 days!!). More info about that will be shared with you guys in the next couple of days. I can't wait to see the girls again. I haven't seen Jenny and Alice since ESWC in San Jose. It will be my first time meeting Benita! It will be my first time also going to Chicago and I hope Jenny will show me around a bit. I love to visit new places! I also get to see Tobi again! \\o/ The weekend should be really fun. Not just fun though. We're planning on working real hard and playing a lot of cs! Stay tuned!!!
Valentine's day with my ladies, mm!! Mrs.Cullen.Lew.Bean ;)
It's 7am and I'm running late for class. You guys take care. Be happy :)
XOXO

P.S2: 1v1 vs Bds at basketball next summer. Do you guys think he stands a chance against me? :P
