MARIAH CAREY - CAREY WANTS TO SNOWBOARD IN 2006

MARIAH CAREY is determined to learn to snowboard, and has decided to make it her new year's resolution.

The superstar singer admits she's always been too lazy and has wasted winter holidays in ski resorts because she can't get out of bed on time.

Carey confesses, "This year, I'm going to try snowboarding. For the past six years, I've been trying to learn, but it just isn't happening. I like to sleep until 3pm when I'm on my holidays, and the ski lift closes at 4pm. So I usually get dressed up in a festive ensemble - either a Chanel, Dior or Lagerfeld outfit - and then I go shopping."
