Vallerina 2 #4 January 25, 2002 I finally convinced my roommate to go to the Mardi Gras boogie with me for the majority of the time; we're just going to hit New Orleans for a couple of hours Friday night. She was a little worried about not having anybody to talk to while I'm skydiving, but she's short and cute and looks like she's 12, so I'm sure there'll be plenty of men willing to talk to her.What really worked in convincing her, though, was getting her to commit to that tandem that she's always wanted to do. She's a senior in college, she'll be at the crazy Mardi Gras party scene, she'll be along the Gulf Coast, and she'll be getting a ball and chain soon once she gets married. I can't think of a better atmosphere to have a first jump in. I'm glad she's going; now I don't have to drive 14 hrs by myself!"You laugh at me because I am different, and I just laugh at you."

Skyrose7 0 #9 January 25, 2002 One of the girls would def go, but the other would crap her pants before she jumped ( unfortunately, she's driving). Regardless, I shall do my best. Oh, I am from Grand Rapids. As far as lowell goes, I think I just passed through it...no offense. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyrose7 0 #10 January 25, 2002 oooh, I am so close to A, but the season ended before I could. How much jumping can you fit from the end of august? The financial strain causes much pain.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyrose7 0 #11 January 25, 2002 I think I am going to go with the tandem angle. It is my best chance. We aren't (unfortunately) going to be in New Orleans for Mardi Gras. We are going --i think--the week after. That sucks, but I'm sure it will still be a blast. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vallerina 2 #20 January 26, 2002 "at least at our DZ if someone looks new there'll be plentyof people talking to him/her, and trying to persuade to jump."Same with my dz (probably most, actually.) It only took two years of taking her to the dz, my yapping on about skydiving, showing her the videos and pictures to finally convince her."You laugh at me because I am different, and I just laugh at you."
