I know the SIM states that you must have a B license and at least 100 jumps to do a night jump. I really would like to do a night jump, but I think I should work on my flaring and accuracy. When did you go on your first night jump and how did you know you were ready? PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233

I have been struggling for months on getting the canopy in the bag.... and with the help of everyone's advice and patience, I put the canopy in the bag on the first try finally!!!!!!! Maybe these 2 hour pack jobs will turn into 30 minute pack jobs. Thank you to everyone for your help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233

Weird, packing was a requirement for my A...and I started wearing a full face helmet at 16 jumps. Why is it different here? PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233

I'm prob. not going to do the egg donor thing.... I considered it when I was buying gear, but in the long run, it prob. wouldn't be a wise decision. I would be a surrogate mother for someone though... different story there. Other than plasma, nothing else is for sale. I just got offered to take care of the new borns at a local church, so I may do that instead for jump ticket money! It will all work out!

Craigs list, roommates.com I found my place and roommates through the college newspaper. Also, word of mouth... ask around, friends, look for flyers at local coffee shops too. PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233

Visitng a new DZ or jumping a new type of plane

I made 30 jumps on a Navigator 200 then downsized to a Sabre II 190... and I felt a big difference with just ten square feet. Also, the flare was much different. PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233 -
Grab your best friend... or someone random and take a vacation. You will see new spots that won't remind you of your significant other, you'll meet new people along the way, and don't forget the chocolate!! My longest relationship was 6 weeks... so this may not be the best of advice, but hey it might work! PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233

I might go skydiving once while pregnant, just so I could tell my baby one day that they were in freefall before they were born :o) Other than that one time, I would quit jumping for those nine months and save some money that could be put towards the baby and minimize risk of miscarriaging. Being only 21 right now... babies are definitely out of the question... maybe my opinion will change if I do become pregnant one day, but for now... no babies for me!!!

I tend to do many dangerous hobbies... and figure that I might die young.... and if I do, I do not want to burden my mom with funeral costs, especially for something stupid I was doing. So, I bought life insurance early on, which is great b/c it will be the same rate until I die. So yay!! PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233

I'm working on the packing thing!! After paying rent, car/life insurance, utilities....ect. then paying 100 bucks plus each weekend for skydiving gets expensive. I'm making it work though. I teach swim lessons and work in a hooka bar at night.... sure, I only make 11K a year, but I make it work with crazy ideas such as selling plasma... so yay!! I make it work like whoaaaa PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233

That's kinda funny... I think they know us well! Just think, one trip to donate plasma could buy you a whole week of Ramen noodles.... PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233

I originally put in the application to sell my eggs when I was trying to buy a rig. Since then, I have wiped out my savings account and bought my rig. So, I'm not all gung ho about selling my eggs. If I do meet a couple that really does want my eggs and will be good parents, then I will consider it more, I do not want my eggs to go to random people. I haven't heard back from the organization in a few months, so I'm not all that worried about it. In reference to selling plasma, that's what the place does around here. To my understanding it's a long process so they give you 5-10 bucks for coming. The place that does it is right next to campus and will give you money for the plasma. If you are giving blood, they do not compensate you for it. PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233

I already have two jobs and go to school. Without having a degree, I don't exactly get paid a lot of money. Lately, I'be been making 6-10 jumps a weekend and it's become a bit costly, so I'm looking for other resources on obtaining money. Right now there is no way I could pack for money. I spent two hours on my pack job the other night for myself on getting the canopy in the bag. So yeah, packing is out of the question until I get better. I am practicing though!!

I've actually already applied to be an egg donor. It's a long process though. PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233

Nope, they advertise it around the campus to us poor college students... and if you do it regularly you get paid $180.00 a month. I figure that would cover the costs for some jump tickets a month. PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233
