today i jumped out of a plane

tomorrow i have a final. and all i want to do is jump again

[the color of a perfect day in taupo]

so jo, hana, and i drove to taupo today to sky dive. we didn't get to go last time because it was too windy, but today was the PERFECT day to do so! stay posted for my video which i will upload sometime...granted i'm pretty retarded in it but i still love it and i LOVE the experience..plus we got to pick our very own 3 soundtracks for our jumping dvd (these songs are very dear to me now..MAKE SURE YOUR VOLUME IS ON ;p).


man...everytime i watch it i get so happy and carefree!! ♥

anyway..here's the place! the do fancy limo pickup but since we had a rental we drove ourselves there


we all got suited up


our basic instructions: be a banana when freefalling


the cute pink lil plane


me n alex--my tandem jumper. he's awesomeee


hana and her tandem


jo and her's


the plane ride was pretty sweet--we went up 12000 feet. it was SO COLD up there! my whole face was tingling and my hands were frozen..and my lips felt funny the whole time. but anyway

jo was the 2nd to jump out of four--her landing!


then along came hana. 'I LOVE LIFE!!!'


then theres me ;p FILO (first in, last out. i made that up. aka LIFO)


we land on our bums ;D


extreme happiness in threes


SO FRIGGEN FUN AND AMAZING!!! and the VIEW WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!

ok anyway...then we went to go eat at the clubhouse which is supposed to have the #1 pizza in nzed, #2 in the world (according to a competition held in vegas). but the oven wasn't heated yet, and we were on a schedule..so we just got other stuff ;\


my baller kids meal. why can't they all be like this


i drove there, so jo drove back. hana slept--the poor girl got in the car drunk this morning


was bored..so random picturessss




(it's a 3.5 hr drive...i was shotgun=awake duty)

i have a final tomorrow. we got back around..8ish. didn't bother to study. i watched my skydiving video a handful of times and got so happy and carefee so i really couldn't be bothered with studying. i want to go again.

damage done: 400$ NZ. includes jump, personalized dvd, ground photos, and tshirt!! (i got pink of course)


poopoobear didn't make it with me on this trip...but she's always with me after


+ revisionist history: pictures added to australia post on day 7

"get down on your knees whisper what i need something pretty i feel that when i'm old i'll look at you and know the world is beautiful then you tell me you say that love goes anywhere in your darkest time it's just enough to know it's there when you go i'll let you be but you're killing everything in me"
