Things I Love

In honour of Meg Fowler, here is the list of things I love.

Sweat pants
The post-gym high
jumping out of planes
espresso
my cat-Frodo
travel
lying in bed on a sunday morning and just reading my book
gossiping with friends
feeling safe
blowing bubbles
my best friend
jeans that don't shrink
ghost stories
feeling strong
chick flicks
rainy days
fresh snow
bare feet in green grass

Gut Wrenching Fear

Okay, so it's been forever and a day since I wrote on the blog, but then again, everyone has been getting group e-mails, so...deal!

I'm dealing with a problem here. A gut wrenching fear kind of problem. I decided to go bungy jumping, or more accurately, canyon swinging! www.canyonswing.co.nz

it's a scary prospect. I have reoccuring dreams in which I'm falling to my death. I always wake up before I hit the ground, but still! Falling. And Falling. And more falling.

So, why am I going bungy jumping? Supposedly to get over my fear. But, I feel like an idiot at the moment! My family has told me, oh don't worry about the money, if you don't want to do it, don't! Fair enough. But, I do kind of want to do it. I really do, cause I know that it'll be the best thing ever, after I've done it. It's just that, it'll be falling. Which is the point! I can be such a dumbass at times, but I am pretty scared. What is that saying? There is no courage without fear?

So, I need to get me some courage.

Watch this space.
