Bakersfield Skydiving

*** Look, up in the sky … it’s a bird, it’s a plane … no, it’s me fool! ***
Ok, I’ve done a lot of crazy things in life but this is the craziest.
I blame my younger sister for talking me into doing a skydive.
She insisted that we do it … «it’s like a bucket list kinda thing».
Well, that was years ago but she Is coming to visit again soon.
So I thought that I would Unilocal about my lone tandem experience.
Skydiving seems like a great, exciting, free, daring concept of fun.
In many ways it is. I admit it’s my greatest adrenaline rush ever!
So I have encouraged most everyone to try it at least once …
but why people do it again, and again, and again? I dunno.
b/​c once you think of it … It’s really some crazy sh! t. (lol)
The free fall part (about 1 – 2 mins) is my problem with it.
I saw many programs growing up where guys do tricks —
hold hands, back flips, etc. — looks like so much fun, right?
But what I didn’t expect was a light-​headedness, feeling of
suffocation, air pressure making my cheeks flap like wings.
Wtf that’s just not my idea of fun … sorry sis, no next time. ;p
*** Well if you do decide to do it, this is a good place to go. ***
