Blisters, Calluses, and Rope Burns! Hooray for Rockclimbing!

Posted by Kaneko at 10:19 PM
For the first time all winter break, I had to get up EARLY this morning! My brother decided to go rockclimbing at Vertical Hold, and obviously, he was taking his two favorite (and only) little sisters with him ;] ;] ;] Since lunch passes are much cheaper than day passes (10$ versus 16$), we decided to leave home at around noon, meaning we'd get there by around 12:30. Unfortunately, that meant my brother and I both had to get up much earlier than we are currently used to; I mean, seriously, we get up at EARLIEST 12:30 nowadays! Hahahaha xD Oh wells.
I did much better today than I have previous times, so I'm quite satisfied with myself. On the contrary, my brother did much worse than usual. My little sister... I don't know, I think she did better? ~shrug~
Currently, my hands are covered in blisters and calluses and a couple of cuts and scrapes, and there's a rope burn on my arm (I rammed into the rope hard twice today, and though that doesn't sound painful or potentially rope burn- causing at all, somehow, it was painful and did give me a burn, so pfft!). My hands and arms aren't hurting all that much right now, surprisingly. I feel like I probably could've done more walls before leaving, but I didn't want to push myself too hard. I still have to be able to do push ups for my push ups training! I can't be lazing around with dead, beat up arms!! :P Besides, my brother said we're going to go back next week, but with his girlfriend that time. My potential sister-in-law wants to hang out with us (lil sis + me), he said! :D Hehe.

Oh yeah, Michelle was supposed to come with us today to Vertical Hold, but she got a ton of shots and vaccines this morning during her doctor's appointment :'[ Swollen arms => unable to move them => falling rockclimbers :P noooot a good idea. Hopefully, she can make it this next trip! (My brother said he doesn't find her coming along this time either :D . So nice, so nice... why can't he be that nice to ME?! hahaha.)

After rockclimbing, we went to McDonalds and bought 40 chicken nuggets for parents + us three (Mom was actually acting as photographer during our rockclimbing, but Dad stayed home to fix the bathroom... lol!), one iced mocha for our daddy, and a caramel frappe for me :] nomnomnom. Am I feeling fat? Nooope, not at all... cough hack ~dies~ :P

After THAT, we lazed around home for a while, then went to Pho Hoa (i think that's how it's spelled, without accent-type mark thingers?) in Linda Vista for our favorite pho :] 'cept this time, I got eggrolls of some sort instead, because I was still full off the chicken nuggets. My little sister and I split a large bowl of pho and split the eggrolls (our brother and dad had an eggroll each too). Nomnomnom some more x]

That's about it for today. Finally, a day out of the house! Christmas is in two days (gasp!), oh boy... Christmas'es at my house are SO not fun... There's not even any Christmas spirit here...!! GRAWR!! >:[
muttermuttermutter... what is this... muttermutter... hrmph...
The next time I get to get out of the house is probably Tuesday when my big sister comes and picks my lil sis and me up for bridal gown shopping... oooooh joy. Not looking forward to that...

OH MY! I'm leaving San Diego in like... a little more than a week! :O I don't know if I'm missing San Diego more right now, or my home in Davis... arg! How troublesome this all is... I haven't even hung out with anybody yet! I need to get on that!! D: Oh dear oh dear oh dear... But then again, my high school friends have either all ditched me or I've ditched them... My bestest best friend moved back to Sweden, Michelle is as trapped as me, and Tony... well, I don't know. Aside from badminton stuffs, we didn't really hang out much in the first place. Then there's my ex, and that's a definite no-go... Nobody else matters, except maybe Jpan. Ohmigosh! Jpan! Must not let that friendship die too! D: ~panics~!

Man, this sucks. ~shrugs~ Oh well.
