So I went rock climbing. On real rocks. In the mountains.
And I loved it.
Yeah, it's been a couple weeks since I did this and I had wanted to write about it earlier but, you know, school came in the way. It was my *first ever* outdoor activity and for that I think I did fairly well. No, I didn't manage to go all the way up the "beginner-level" (my ass!) climb, but half-way up wasn't bad considering the bike ride up Baseline Rd. killed me before I even got to the Gregory Canyon trail head. And I promise you, I could've gone a lot higher had the drizzle not made the rock as slippery as it was. At the end of the day, if you ask me, I was surprised I could lift my weight at all :)I want to thank my classmate Ryan Mazer and his friends for organizing this awesome outing for us. I totally need to do this again.I'm hoping for more Boulder awesomeness as my life here continues. I really couldn't be happier. And I promise I'm going to post more often.

Man, I am so jealous! That looks like fun. You have reminded me I need to do some climbing before winter arrives.
