today
ahh today was fun! I drove an hour up to grass valley to do a ropes course for my leisure class. it was pretty cool! we all got into groups and did some team building exercises like organizing ourselves while standing on a log, without being able to talk, by our birthdates. Then we had to get everyone through this rope spiderweb thing without ever touching the rope, and then we could climb. They had several different ways you could climb, and everyone was in a harness. The first one I did was a zip line, which was cool and hard at the same time! I had no idea that it would be that tough haha, and my knee is a little scraped because of it i think. They also had an 80 foot drop, where you climb 80 feet up a tree and then jump off this rickety plank and try to grab hold of a trapeze bar then just drop. SCARY!! i didnt do it though. it started raining while we were there and the line to do the drop was 20 people long, and it was HELLA COLD. There was a 30 foot climb where you could walk across some ropes, i did that, which was pretty scary on its own! I wasnt sure if i was afraid of heights but i guess i kinda am! the climb was the killer, because your arms and legs start to get weak, and the foot holes get harder to find and then you have to reach out onto this rope and walk across onto just a wire! But a couple others were scarier, because you go up and are walking across like a log or a ladder with nothing to hold onto! I didnt do those. by the end of the trip, our teacher wanted us to take a picture on this big log and i got hella tree sap on my leg which was hell to get off haha. AND THEN driving home, i got lost. I hate sacramento! because i never know if im going the right way, and i swear i was lost for like an hour on freaking watt avenue! So, i came home and jumped in the shower then took a nap haha for three hours til 8! im so bad, but i needed it! So, now i am going to make some cookie, cake like things for saras birthday and then try to go to BED
