#10

Well, here's to another one crossed off the list! Today I finished my lead climbing course, and I'm all good to go. Soon enough I will be doing this: Gah! That's insane. My climbing will probably be a little less sketchy than that. It freaked me out enough doing practice falls at the wall, and they were probably only 10 feet, if that. My dad told me he once took a 60 foot fall...I don't even want to think about that!

I'm addicted

My latest addiction: climbing. A little over a month ago I took my belay certification and my roomate Laura and I have gone almost every day since. Seriously, its an addiction. So yesterday we got a few people together and went up to Waterton to climb. It was so much fun! I'm not going to lie, when we got there I wasn't convinced that it was hard enough climbing, and I thought we would be able to just fly up the rock...wrong. It was actually pretty challenging in parts, which was good. Not to mention how the rock destroyed my hands! Its not quite the same as climbing on an indoor wall...who would have thought? Anyways, here's a few pictures! Hopefully there will be more of these trips this summer...

Busy busy busy!

That is what my life is these days. Here's a taste of what I've been up to lately:
Okay, I wish. My roomate and I took a rock climbing course a couple weeks ago and we've since learned just how addicting it is. We go almost every day...which is kind of ridiculous, but I love it. I've always been a top-rope kind of girl (and by always I mean the few times back in the day when my dad would take me) but I'm becoming more prone to bouldering these days. I've managed to master routes 1-6...7 and 8 are my goal for this week, so we'll see how that goes! Maybe one day I'll be hardcore enough to scale up mountains...haha. I love the pictures I get off google. I'm in my last clinical of my 3rd year of nursing in general medicine. I wasn't looking forward to it at all because I figured it would be like long term care, which is fairly accurate, but I'm actually really enjoying it, and learning SO MUCH! Only 9 months and I'm DONE! Gah!

This past weekend I went down to Southern Alberta for my good friend Shayla's wedding. I even got to be her photographer...my first wedding on my own! It was so much fun. Shayla looked beautiful (well, she always does...but she looked ESPECIALLY gorgeous). Both her and KJ are great, and I love them together! It was a fantastic day.

I've also been trying to keep up with everything else in life...training for my half-marathon in May (only 6 weeks left...!), attempting to fulfill my calling, and everything else in between.

Life is good.
