skydiving


So i finally got to go skydiving and it was a lot of fun! as you can see by the video, I got just a little nervous when i got to the door of the plane, it was like my brain shut off and I didn't even realize the guy was grabbing my hand off the plane till we jumped out. I also forgot that I get really bad motion sickness so on the way up I was starting to get nauseous and when I got down on the ground they offered me a hand up and I told them I was pretty sure if I got up, I'd throw up- they immediately backed away. Other than that though- it was amazing! I was so glad Angie and Megan could go with me!

Russia

So today my coworkers were discussing whether or not Russia was considered part of Asia or Europe, some of them argued that because most of the population is closer to Europe that its Europe, while others say most of it territory is closer to Asia. Then there was the debate of what Russians really look like, European or Asian. So, if you have any good insight to this, please, let me know! We are trying to get to the bottom of this!
