Collingswood

Collingswood (also known as C-wood, C-hood which is really dumb, and Colls). Collingswood consists of three towns: Oaklyn, Woodlyn, and Collingswood. There are about 800 students in grades 9th-12th. Kids from Camden try to attend because it’s known for being good at sports such as basketball (boys and girls), wrestling, field hockey and lacrosse. They are terrible in softball, track, and girl’s tennis. And all of the other sports are average, and they don’t have a men’s lacrosse team. The school is a joke because the teachers don’t care about anything if you suck up to them and respect them. However, there are a handful of great teachers who want to teach. The problem is that the kids think they are too cool to learn. The freshmen think they are the shit and they clog the hallways. There is usually at least one fight a year. You probably cut class to go to Wa-Wa, to smoke a cigarette, or to just get the fuck out. If you’ve ever got caught skipping class it was probably by Garbirino. There are about 4 teachers who you think are perverts, and they are because they flirt with anything with a vagina and at least b-cup breasts. During the weeks in winter, “the popular kids” go to the boy’s basketball games and wrestling matches. No one goes to the girls basketball games. Most of the kids get their beer from some senior boy who looked old enough to get served at Akunimos, or an older relative. You drink cheap vodka, keystone, or natty light. Some kids in Collingswood know HOW to throw a party (most likely a kid from Oaklyn) but EVERYONE knows how to party. When it’s warm out everyone goes to the trestle to party, which ALWAYS gets busted by the cops. Many juniors and seniors smoke shitty mids that were sold to them from one of their classmates.

Curling

The ancient Scottish sport of curling has been called a hybrid of bowling and chess set on ice, but perhaps the closest analogy is shuffleboard. Two four-member teams slide 42-pound granite stones (the best of which come from a single quarry in Scotland) on a sheet of ice toward a target area. Teammates sweep the ice in front of the stone to help maneuver it towards the center target.
Each player on the team throws two stones during an "end," which is sort of like an inning in baseball. The team with the most points after 8 or 10 ends wins the match. Did I mention that you can knock your opponents' stones out of contention?

The name "curling" comes from the Old English verb "to curr," or growl. There's a fair amount of shouting during the game, as team members urge each other on while sweeping the ice in front of the stone.

This year, the British women's team gave their country its first Winter Olympics gold medal since 1984, while the Norwegian men's team upset the Canadian favorites.
Curling looks like a lot of fun, I wonder where I could try it in my area?
