Day 38: Climbing the Rock.

I was going to blog about sushi, but little did I know, the most exciting part of my day was yet to happen. Francis the praying mantis came over and randomly asked if I wanted to go rock climbing. I hesitated and told me, "ehh, next time." He basically forced me to go since he has a free guest pass every first of the month. I'm glad I went.

Oh my! What an experience. There were so many people there and I got really nervous. My hands started sweating like a mustard! Wow! Haha, thank goodness for powder! The shoes were so comfortable too! I liked 'em. I felt like skipping on my toes. AHHH!!! I was so nervous haha.
Francis taught me how to tie the rope and how to start out. Once I started climbing, I got the hang of it and it was fun! I forgot what wall I started with, but it was getting more difficult. Sometimes I found myself stuck. The first time I got stuck I was thinking of a place to place my foot/hand. Francis guided me through the entire thing. At one point, we were both just laughing because I didn't know where to go. HAHA. Note to self: don't laugh so much while climbing, it'll make you more tired.


As soon as I knew it, I was climbing high walls. Boy, was I scared haha. Scared of heights..eek! From the ground, you look at all the colored rocks you want to hit and plan out your path, but when you're actually climbing, oh my golly cheese...you get stuck, especially when you come across the bumps or whatever they're called. It's tiring. Those little rocks too..killer! Haha but it was fun. Yay! I was shocked when Francis told me he climbs for three hours, but time really does fly by fast. I didn't know we spent about two hours climbing. Super fun. I'm going to be sore. Actually, just thinking/typing about rock climbing is making my hands sweat. Haha, where's the powder when you need it! ;P

After rock climbing, we grabbed some yogurt! Jessica was working, so it was good to see her too. She's next! Thanks for the yogurt! It was much needed.

Unexpected day, but fun and exciting! Just one of those things you have to try out. Psh, and I almost passed this opportunity up...man, what's wrong with you, Kristine[dash]Marie Ventura David! Thanks, Francis the praying mantis, for encouraging me to go! I'm glad you did! I had fun! Yay!

Now I can't wait until tomorrow. Round table pizza, garlic twists, and yummy cake! Whoohoo! I can't wait to eat meat! Powder your sweaty hands, don't forget a hair tie, and eat some meat!
