Come one and come all to the wonderous, the magnificent the ultra delightful stupendifying bloggylishous journal of the one, the only, biiiiigggggg Phil. In the next few moments, he intends to do an ultra double backflip turnaround jump 5 times before landing in *this* small bucket of water. If you don't believe me - Just Read ahead! You might even read about his trip to Canada!

CLV Curling Victory

For something different, I have decided to update, this actually happened 2 weeks ago, but for the first time all season, team were the victors! We smashed the opposition, and pulled through with a great victory for exchange students everywhere!

The final score was an amazing 5-4, with us taking the first, third, fifth and sixth rounds!

I think after the full season, we finally found our edges, and our favourite positions, and even Sven with his crazy last second spin, managed to do impressive things!


The International team at work!



As you can see brushing can be the difference between everything and nothing.

For those of you who aren't sure how the whole thing works, you go from end to end hurling Granite "things" hopefully getting it as close as possible to the center of the circles, but since you can easily knock other teams rocks out of the way and leave your own behind, (like newtons balls) there is a large degree of tactics behind the thing.

See a movie of us here:



After a partially disappointing season, we're glad that we finally pulled off a victory!
Well done guys! Look forward to the Reunion in a few years!



The team: Me, Sven, William, and Urs!

Hi mate!

This was definitely the perfect final of an awesome season. The team was a unity in all the loses and it great in it's amazing victory.
Never forget this time on the place I called "my home" during this term - the curling rink!

Perhaps we can handle to have a reunion for a beneficial purpose some time in the future. I will be ready for and keen on it!
