my new calling. February 12, 2008
Posted by Abby T in : (pointless) humor, rants & raves, ye olde sporte , trackbackI’m going to try out for Rockstar Curling.
From the article:
The show would involve U.S.-wide tryouts starting this year, open to anyone 18 or older. A panel of coaches will select two teams – five men and five women – to train for six months, all expenses paid, at Lake Placid, N.Y.
They would train eight hours a day under professional coaches before going to regional playdowns for the 2010 U.S. Olympic trials in February 2009.
If they win, they’re off to the Vancouver Olympics, unlikely as that may seem.

You should do it. This is much more important than going to school in Hawaii. I support this endeavor 100%.
Crazy as it may seem, one of my life-goals is to learn to curl, and I have been calling and e-mailing Canadian Curling clubs trying to figure out how to get in! I couldn’t believe it when my friend told me about this yesterday. How do I try out? This is truly some weird fate thing. I have to pursue it.
