Already posted this, but I think it's better here so... *copy* *paste*
1: I'll respond with something random about you. I can always tell when you're nearby cause you jingle. That's pretty cool. Though it makes it hard for sneaking up on people.
2: I'll challenge you to try something. Think of something you would really like to do that you have never done before and normally wouldn't try to do, and find a way to get a chance to do it.
3: I'll pick a colour that I associate with you. Really really bright green. Not quite lime green but very close to that. Yellow-ish green.
4: I'll tell you something I like about you. You manage to have a presence even though you're shy. Like even if you're too shy to talk to people, a lot of people know who you are cause you're so bouncy and helpful and energetic and jingly.
5: I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you. You fearlessly climbing everything in Challenge and Growth, quickly, upside down, with blindfolds, any which way someone challenged you to climb it. Oh, and the time that both you and your anchor flew in the air when belaying. Or was that someone else?
6: I'll tell you what animal you remind me of. Something really bouncy and energetic... like a puppy. Or a monkey. In Challenge and Growth I always thought of you as a monkey, cause you climbed so naturally and fearlessly.
7: I'll ask you something I've always wanted to ask you. When and why did you first start coming to SCA stuff?
8: If I do this for you, you must post this in your journal N/A, this time not because you don't have a journal but because you already did it
Awww, thank you. ^_^ 2. All things considered...that's really hard! *whine whine* But I'll try... 3. Yaaay, happy green! 5. I did indeed fly (on a number of occasions) but I think the one you're talking about was when a guy was climbing the wall and I was belaying, and the rest of my belay team was chatting. My anchor was holding onto my loop VERY loosely. Suddenly the guy climbing decided to take a shot at being Peter Pan and jumped. My anchor let go, I flew. I was suspended in the air for some time until I released enough rope to gently lower him and then myself down to where the teacher could reach me and pull me down. Yep. 6. :D 7. Denis brought home a blurry video of Matona Mia from Fool's Moot and showed it to me. I mumbled something about wanting to sing and how cool it would be to sing with the choir to myself, but Denis noted it and encouraged me to do so. I said it was okay, I don't have a voice. The next day, Chandler's first comment to me was, "So what's this about you joining choir?" And he talked to me about it, too. I was really hesitant about it, but I told myself I would and plus it was Denis's birthday and he told me to go, so I went to choir. I was really nervous and scared the entire time, but after I got home, I calmed down and realized it might be neat to go again. ^_^ And I did. And that same weekend, Denis was going to archery and I was for some reason very willing to try something new and feeling braver than usual and asked if I could come. He welcomed me to do so and took me along, and Jois was kind and got me started right away, and I enjoyed it. And I came back there, too. :)
2. I know it is. That's why it's a challenge. But I don't want you to get in trouble either. But if you can, do try to do something. 5. I thought the anchor went up too, and it was just the back-up belayer holding you down. But maybe you're right and the anchor let go. It was the wall that I was thinking of, so it is probably the same situation. I was belaying (or at least on the belay team for) the cargo net, so I was more focused on what was happening with our climber until someone said something about you flying, so by the time I looked over you were already in the air. High in the air. The highest I flew when belaying was like a couple inches, you were much higher than that. *sigh* I miss Challenge and Growth. I think I've become less scared of heights recently, but haven't gotten a chance to really climb since then to prove that to myself.
