Boooooooo, we didn't get to jump out of an airplane
yesterday....it was too cloudy. The class was damn
entertaining though. I think there was 7 of us in the class
and K was the only girly that nobody believed was 30.
We were all having a good time practicing jumping out
of the plane and going through all of the drills, until we
got to the last section of our training "shit happens".
All of a sudden everyone was moving around in their
seats, asking to go back over everything we learned,
and just plain scared! Emergency situations suck.
Ditching your parachute and using you backup sucks.
Both your chutes opening at the same time sucks.
Lines getting tangled sucks. Spinning out of control
while trying to do these things sucks.
That said, we can't wait until Thursday to do our jump!!!
If we can time it right, we might jump on Friday morning
and then board a flight to Colorado Friday Night!
How cool would that be?
One of the instructors came into our class and called me out
"oh-yeah, that guy is definitely going to wait as long as possible
to pull his chute"
Oh-yeah, not getting to jump after you have that much excitement
built up sucks too! We were so wound up when we came home
that we almost started running in circles to calm our selves.
