  1. so easy to say (type), so hard to do. My roomate is going through the samw thing. Unfortunately, neither of us are being disciplined, and if one gives in to a beer....well, so does me. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  2. YOU ARE MAAAAAAAAADD! I thought 17 credits was bad, that is outrageous!--and you're still alive? The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  3. i wish I had three months off. I think I get one week before summer semester starts. At least it will ALL be over in the fall. I graduate! I have a bunch of hard classes this semester. yippee!! Best of luck to anyone else feeling as boged down!! LIndsey--10 exams!? good luck, good luck. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  4. Well, it is exam week here--and I have reached bottom. I have gone mad. I have been up every night--waaaaaay too late. I slept past my alarm this morning and missed work (luckily- I am working with my mom at the moment b/c my work closed down). So, I just finished a research paper and now have one hour before a spanish final---I CAN"T SPEAK SPANISH, how will I take a final!? No time to study for it, I give up on school. ugh! is there anyone going as crazy as me?--oh did I mention that jumping season just started for me and I can't get it out of my head? Try studying when all you can see is a mental picture of throwing yourself out of a plane and doing a whole bunch of new shit that is just awesome....sorry, that is my rant. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  5. I realize that this is stupid, but I have none. As soon as I graduate from school, I will hopefully be able to afford it. Right now, I am just layin' low--hoping to stay healthy. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  6. 0:2:1 case owed for doing two-way with dzo. it was awesome! The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  7. My-oh so kind- roomates and I will watch a few skydiving movies and drink beer. I think that makes sense. (of course, this only happened once because they really don't appreciate the movies like I do---however, we do drink a lot of beer). The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  8. I feel for ya. Keep your head up, and utililize your time to learn new things. :) At least you'll get something out of this. SMILE! The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  9. I agree with you! I am continually amazed at the nice things people do for me at the dz. Everyone is so willing to share their knowledge, if not take me up for free coach jumps--just to be nice. Everyone here is great too. I really would like to meet all of you. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.

    oooh, I really love that song The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  11. I am one of the souls with no access to a bigger and better plane. Do it for me!! I just have to do the paperwork for my A, and then I'll be the one feeling intimidated! Good Luck! The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  12. I think I will write some papers tonight, write some papers tommorrow (at the dz), and then write some more on sunday. oh, and study for two exams sunday night. I LOVE FINALS WEEK. I think I may squeeze in a few margaritas on the deck tonight. he he The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  13. Best of luck with your back. I had//have a herniated disk in my lower back. You have a FEW!!?? ONe was enough for me. That one disk managed to numb my left leg, and when it wasn't numb, it was throbbing. BEST OF LUCK to you. Are you going to get surgery? I managed to escape through chiropractics. Again, ENJOY your drugs. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.

    I may be unemployed, but I am haven't sunk that low. :) The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  15. well, I wouldn't pay it, but then again, I am unemployed...so, if you have a job--go for it. Did you go to priceline? The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  16. lol---and I bet you wouldn't have any problem "finding work" for me either. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  17. I think that is a great idea...but how will I afford it?? or any of us for that matter. One good thing about all of this is that if I can't find anything, I can work for my mom. So, I at least I will be able to pay the bills (some...). I don't think I could start my own business. I don't know what I would sell.. perhaps I will just stand on a corner with a sign "will work for jumps" I think I may get a few strange looks The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  18. Well, I have been working as a bartender at Cooker Bar & Grill for almost four years now. I found out Friday night that we were closing on MONDAY!! I was not told by my managers, they weren't allowed to tell anyone--except of course a few privelaged. The corp filed ch 11 last year, but things have been going well. This is just kind of wierd. I just can't believe they weren't allowed to tell the empolyees. I know it was because they though no one would show up for their shifts afterward, but hey, we all still need money. So, I guess I will have many many free weekends this summer to spend at the dz. This is the only positive thing I can pull out of this. Just thought I would share. Got any job ideas that is not in the restaurant business? --don't know if I can do that again.. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.

    "My colors"

    I have the same colors as you. Although, I had to buy an rw suit, I went with black and purple. I like black, but I never thought about the heat aspect of it. I hope that doesn't suck this summer. I like the tye-dye idea. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.

    Exercise

    I was running about 6 miles a week and doing kick boxing on off days from beginning of summer to the beginning of winter. I think I get the mid winter blues. I wish I could bike or run to work/school, but that would be 20 miles each way. I do A LOT of walking at school, but that doesn't count. I am starting some sort of dance aerobics class with my friend for the summer--that should be a lot of fun. Now that spring is here, I can run again too. I love the way a long run makes me feel. It clears my head--de-stresses me,and it is wierd how you can go on much further than you thought you could. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  21. I'm gonna have to go ahead and say "hell no" on that one. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.

    scare!

    Yah, I was teasing him about that. We were talkin to the dzo and I was like, "DOn't you practice pulling at home? I know I do!" He , of course, does practice--I think he just had a brain fart. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  23. It doesn't feel very good. It also didn't help that it was the first time my parents ever came out, and my mom ran out on to the runway after me. I was like, "mom! you can't be out here!" There were still jumpers coming in. Oh, she was freaked. Then, she didn't realize I had a bloody hand when she grabbed it. A few minutes later, she came running into the packing area frantic--"MARY, there is blood on my hand!!! WHERE ARE YOU BLEEDING FROM??!!" I then showed her the gravel embedded in my hand, and that made her feel even better. The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
  24. I hear ya, I just made it out to the dz. woke up at 11:30 w/ a headache, drove an hour, and managed to fit in three today. It was supposed to be clouds and rain, but instead it was clear and hot! The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.

    scare!

    It was definately freaky---especially since it was my bro, and I told him I would buy him a beer if he went up for one last jump of the day. THat was running through my head right away. Our dz owner warned us about this kinda stuff in training. SOmetimes your brain just thinks you have the hackey,or ripcord, and maybe you are grabbing on to the side of the rig. I am not wearing gloves for the rest of the season for that reason. He didn't have any on, but I think--why interfere? The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.
