mountain climbing

Hello everyone!

Sorry it has been so long since my last post but I have been super duper busy! For the past week I have been going to classes and doing homework. I have my first test this Friday in my animal behavior class. I'm kinda nervous but I know I will do just fine. :)

This past Thursday at my outdoor pursuits class we went mountaineering. This means that we had to climb a mountain. It was the hardest thing ever!! I felt really accomplished at the end but during the climb I was exhausted and hurt. I kept getting cramps in my legs and the boots we had to wear from the Conway Center totally gave me bruises on my legs... lame! Oh.. and I would just like to inform everyone that if you plan on drinking powerade over here and there being sodium in it... you would be wrong. Anyway, I feel really accomplished and proud of myself for climbing and descending the mountain successfully but I would call the experience fun. haha
Im so ready!!!!
