BangS Ski Camp in 2009
I had not expected about snowboarding before I arrived Sung-Woo resort. However, it gave me lots of fun and more.
A day before the day I went to the resort, I could not sleep at my home because my home features a battery-powered electronic door lock system with key-pad. When I got back to my home from the work, the door was not working. The battery of the door lock was gone. “Oh…..my……god…..” what should I do? Unfortunately, I already had a plan for next morning for going camp with my friend, and I had left my stuff for snowboarding and my car key. I decided to go Korean style spa for sleep because I couldn’t do anything with the problem. The next day, I woke up in the spa then I went to home. When I faced the door lock, I reached my finger to key-pad. I was nervous. I pushed numbers slowly then I could hear a mechanical sound. Yes! The door was opened. I changed batteries right after bat then I packed my stuff, and I left my home to the camp.
I finally arrived at the Sung –Woo resort after I passed crooked roads.
