Oh My God, Thank you so much to everyone that replied to " can you relate to this" It meant loads to me to know Im not alone and gave me a lovely warm glow to know that you guys all feel the same. if Ive learn one thing from you experienced guys that have replied its this...... THE ADDICTION ONLY GETS WORSE !! ha ha, bring it on !! i have already accepted the dept, mental obsession and the loss of pissed-off neglected non-skydiving fiends so Im ready!! I have 27 jumps now and am waiting to my last JM stage, but I have not jumped for about 10 days due to weather/work/wankers that take up space on the plane. it has been so busy at the DZ that fun- jumpers and students are all on hold for 5 days!! All I keep thinking is... if ONLY I'd got thjat last jump in, my license would be in the post!! Anyway, who cares, this sport will last me forever. Before I know it, 'll be jumping with my sister ( she has 150 jumps) we just want to go out the plane in ridiculous stupid positions and experiment like hell! I hope you are all having fun 'swimming in the sky' (Ive written a song with this title and one day, when I get the confidence, Ill post it onto this site !! love you all, Rach x x Miss3sixty Skydiving- it has its ups and downs

Oh my God!!!!!! Skydiving has taken over my life! Does this sound familiar? getting up early on days off despite being knackered avoiding making any plans that you would later resent if it is jumpable considering selling laptops, cars, myself? To pay for more jumps sitting at work daydreaming and looking at skydiving websites just to get close to it jealous of people not at work and obsessed with knowing who is jumping and who is also stuck at work I hope there are people out there who feel the same! I have done 19 jumps and have 4 AFF stages left to go. Ive got the famous 'hop and pop 'next !! I love this sport more than I could ever have imagined and I fell it has totally changed my life. However, everytime I walk towards the plane with my rig on my back, I always ask myself "why the hell am I putting myself through this?" Then the minute I land, I am asking to get on the next load! My best moment so far was holding a sitfly after attempting it for the very first time. Wooohooooooo!! Worst moment - 3 second 'groping round my arse handle fumbleage' that felt like three minutes! When learing to skydive, I think its really important to try and jump as regularly as possible and maintain consistancy. If I have not jumped for a couple of weeks due to other commitments/weather I get all my old fear back, but I suppose its good to have fear, it avoids complacancy. ANYWAY I just wanted to introduce myself and make a few on-line friends. Blue Skies, sky swimmers!!!! Miss3sixty Skydiving- it has its ups and downs

I have 7 jumps too and feel exactly the same!!! just try and spend as much time as you can at the dropzone, talking to other skydivers, watching people pack etc, you can learn sooo much!! have you done a solo yet? Ive done 2!! x [] Miss3sixty Skydiving- it has its ups and downs
