I know I said I would write more frequently, but maybe I'll do a weekly post instead so I have more to talk about.
This past week I had the wonderful experience to go camping and rock climbing with group of friends. I must say I was never an outdoorsy or camping person, but this trip really has changed that. As my roommate said, "I've caught the 'bug'."
Anyways, it was my first time rock climb ever, a good test of my fitness level, and let's just say my first day was pretty pathetic. Rock climbing is a pretty technical sport, it's not all about brute strength and force, granted it helps. Rock climbing is a lot like relationships; the more energy you put into holding on, the more tired you get, instead find right one and holding on seems effortless and natural. So taking that advice, the second day went a lot smoothing, I actually manage to make it up a couple of bolts.
*Side note, I have never eaten so well on a camping trip, and I'm pretty sure everyone at the campsite was jealous of how much food we had.
So now that I had my little mini-vacation, I just need to finish the rest of my finals for I-Core and then finish the case, and off to China I go. 20 more days and counting. Remember, for those who read this, I'll be moving to my blog specific for my year abroad in China.
Bests Everyone,
