I simply couldnt wait to post tis one up. We were there, at AJ Hackett,Cairns, a bungy haven, initially to accomodate Yvonne's crave, err....come to think of it, i don't remember how i got myself into it. It must haf been Jon(Yvonnes' hubby), whose insinuative ways, always gets me into doin stupid stuffs.. or rather, crazy stuffs. That, coupled with the stuffs/feelings i went thru over the past few months, 'perfect combo' i shud say!
1. Ye, as i was sayin, the next thing i know, i was payin up fer the jump, gettin my weight written on my hands, strippin miself off everything unnesseccary, physically, and mentally.
2. The climb to the tower, platform fer the leap, was physically exhausting and it was much more of a 'how long till i get there' instead of me freakin out abt the jump.
3. Once i'm done with the seemingly never endin flight of stairs, lol, twas just then it hit me, 'wtf am i doin up here'... ahha..serious!!, and to haf to wait fer the rest to take the plunge, the faces, the freaking out, the screams, the 5,4,3,2,1, bungyyy, did not help a bit. :(
8. Nxt up, like a sea captain that's forced to walk the plank, made my way to the edge, somehow got a quik glance of a sticker they had up there somwhere that read "Why Live On The Edge When You Can Jump Off" and before i could really digest what it said, i heard a voice, so nonchalantly goin; 5,4,3,2,1 bungyyyy.
9. Tryin my best to recall how it'd felt; just as i leaped, the world seemd to have stoppd spinnin fer a good sec, and the seconds after couldnt go any faster until the cord was fully stretchd. aaaahhh man, n the rebound only gets better!
100. Got back on my feet and walked away like a new man, SIMPLY AWESOME! TOP SCALED, EXHILARATION !
(notice that 4-7, 10-99 had been skipped. U'll simply haf to be there, doin it!)
I can't wait to go again. I'm definitely gonna be goin again, hopefully with the company of Vicky, and, if anybody else wanna tag along...say ..Thines?, c'mon, hit me/vicky with a msg. It aint finalised, but it'd be sumtime early next year.
lol, if i had to say sumthing that sums up to how i felt, thru out the whole ordeal, as how thines/vicky wud put it 'singam thatti elluperran' which literally translates to 'pokin the lion out of its slumber'.
YES. I get it now, "why live on the edge when you can jump off".
