  1. I love babies, children, and all! I teach Sunday school for 1-2 years old. When I am having a rough day with the babies, I don't even see them as cute anymore, I just want them to shut up. A few years ago I used to volunteer at the neonatal care unit for newborn...I never realized they love being wrapped so tight in a bundle. At the cancer center,even when they're sick, they still want to play and manage to smile. I love them! Can't wait to have some of my own. :) ---------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- If you want to see the rainbow, you gotta put up with the storm.

  2. You can't be Jump 20 because I was in Jump 20 and all my friends were on the plane and another lady. We all did tandems. I would like to work at the DZ but if I even mentioned that....my parents will kill me. I'm long overdue to finish college and it's taking me forever. ---------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- If you want to see the rainbow, you gotta put up with the storm.

  3. Reall you remember me? Dang...I was so excited I wasn't paying attention to anyone. I'm the Asian chick with the camera. this is so cool! i would love to meet you, tvo7 and everyone here. i really like my landing because it was smooth but i guess it doesn't really count since it's a tandem and the instructor was behind me. lol. ---------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- If you want to see the rainbow, you gotta put up with the storm.

  4. interesting to see different responses. i don't know yet about me since i've had only one jump last weekend. i bet that as soon as i get my student loan i'm gonna be so tempted to use some of it.... well the plan right now is stop eating out and stop drinking Starbucks or Jamba Juice and cut down on my photography addiction. i think i have a new boyfriend now and it's skydiving. i can't stop thinking about it. ---------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- If you want to see the rainbow, you gotta put up with the storm.

  5. No...photography is not as expensive as skydiving...I was kinda exaggerating.... well it all depends though...lets just say if I take pictures every week for one month, including film, processing, etc, is close to $500 a month but i've cut down a lot but i've spent more than that before to in a month. i've been so tempted to go digital but can't afford the one i want which is close to 3K. Well, i guess it all depends but skydiving is still more expensive because I don't make money off of jumping. At least with photography I make some money or get reinbursed for some of my expenses. i'm so ready to go for my 2nd jump though. by the way, i was on load 20. ---------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- If you want to see the rainbow, you gotta put up with the storm.

  8. Hi! I remembered some Asian people but I wasn’t paying attention. I didn’t get there until 5PM and didn’t jump until around 6:30 or 7PM. I had on a brown shirt and navy shorts. I was with a group of 3 guys and 1 other girl. How was your 2nd tandem? Are you going for the solo training? This is pretty addicting. I can’t wait for my 2nd jump! Now I have two addictions: skydiving and photography and both are very expensive…. When are you going again? I don’t really have the money to jump again until 2 or 3 months until I Pay for my school tuition first. I wonder if they mind me just going over there just to hang out. ---------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- If you want to see the rainbow, you gotta put up with the storm.

  9. First, I have to say that you all are very nice! Thanks for welcoming me here! :) Yes, I plan on going back again to do my 2nd tandem and then do solo and get into the STP program at my DZ. Well actually before I jumped, the only thing I was paranoid about was the landing. So many people I know has tried to talk me out of it saying that I'm going to get hurt or something worse. How encouraging lol..... So anyway, I wasn't scared at all but thought it was the coolest experience ever just to be free like an eagle. The only thing that got me was when we started spinning, I got a little woozy in the stomache, don't know if it had something to do with me not eating all day... but I am soooo looking forward to my next jump. Right now, just trying to save up but really hard especially being a broke college student. So for the time being, I'm putting aside a little from each paycheck every week. ---------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- If you want to see the rainbow, you gotta put up with the storm.

  10. Hi Everyone! I'm new to this board and to skydiving! I did my first jump (tandem) on Saturday, July 23, 2005 and it was awesome! My tandem instructor was Chris Miller at SkyDive Spaceland and he was really funny and knowledgeable! The staff at SkyDive Spaceland (Rosharon, TX) are so cool! I plan on going back many many more times! I can't wait to get in the world of skydiving and meet other skydivers and learn from them! :) ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- If you want to see the rainbow, you gotta put up with the storm.
