Hey Guys.
Have you been hearing rumours about a mad competition in Canada to be a paid Snow Bum? Well, it's true - Sun Peaks Resort in BC are looking for someone to bum the snow for a whole 3 months and tell everyone all about it via multi-media blogs and I hope to be the one to do it!

Most of you will have plans for this season already and I'm not joining you because of my total lack of cash after uni and lack of visas this year but this could be my gateway to the snow and a career with it! I was the film editor of my uni's paper; did an extra module in media and marketing and have even authored ski and board articles despite my editor's disapproving looks: I've got media experience and want to apply it and learn more at Sun Peaks, whilst having an absolute blast and informing everyone about it via exciting blogs - and then hopefully gain a journo job afterwards.

I'm at my parents in France at the minute - stranded and jobless, so fingers crossed ay? So if you reckon the video's cheesiness deserves a nod of praise, please visit my entry at http://www.snowbumcanada.com/entry/laura
and please leave me some feedback (if you like the video that is, ha) - that'd be O for awesome because the more views and comments I get - the better my chances. Hope you like the video (which is amateur I know but there's no music due to all that copyright stuff) and any support would be very, very, very, much appreciated! Wish me luck! )

Cheers alot Ian! :D

I totally agree with you Pablo. I've been discussing it on other forums and my problem was, that in my haste to apply, I didn't make the time to get some copyright free music. I hope it doesn't effect my chances though! The competition closes on sunday and I can't change it now! Eeeeek :cry:
