PERHAPS, JUST A PERHAPS: THAT KIND OF FEAR

woke up late but still headed to USS and this is the thing about annual pass: you get so used to it and somehow you find it acceptable to go USS at 3 p.m. and finally get to go for a date with the boyfriend after being sick for nearly 2 weeks.

and the highlight was this rock climbing which we tried for the very first time after countless times to USS. and this got the adrenaline pumping. i used to like rock climbing and it was not scary the last i remember. i guess its the age, the older i get, the more humji i am. i used to love pirate ship or any roller coaster rides because of the free fall. those feelings you got from free fall is really one of a kind. but now, i cannot stand the free fall.

so about rock climbing, shaun went first and it seemed really easy. i saw him step and push and he was on the top in less than 5 minutes.

and then it was my turn. i struggled abit and i was thinking, shaun made it seemed so easy. why?

stucked for awhile and my arms were trembling. it was so tiring just trying to hold it there. and my legs were shaking too. and i heard from the belayers shouting: "you need to move your right leg to the skull" and other instructions. but inside me i really felt unsafe, like i can just fell any moment i lift my leg. humji is one thing, egoistic is another. i was like, this rock wall is for children and i have to reach the top.

so i did and shaun was like: "look down. okay. you want another photo?" and i was like: "no. i want to come down now." coming down was another issue - i dont dare to let go. lols.

went for some family ride after.

and just before we left, we saw this dinosaur mascot and i had to take a photo because seriously, its our first time seeing this but the escort took really bad photos. i dont know why she was rushing but she took my phone and used it to take photos for the group in front of us. so shaun very nicely told her that the phone is ours and she kind of raised of voice, annoyed, said we can just delete those photos.

whatever. and then our photos turned out this way. seriously? we were not even ready.
