Only Days to go...

With only a few days to go before I attempt a skydive. I have mixed emotions a part of me wants it to all be over so I can get on and do other things I need to do but a part of me wants to keep going it.

- Some people want me to get to 200 challenges

- Another friend has suggested I take a year off and do an "extreme stupidity challenge 2008"

- Or redo all the challenges but upsize them (make them twice as hard)

I know whatever happens next I will keep doing challenges but I may not to decide to share them with the world. Its now part of me an addiction if you will...I now just do things without thinking as much about them. We all tend to spend a lot of time thinking and planning rather than doing. I have become very aware of other people and their comfort zones. I have just received an email from my sister who is in Samoa on a student exchange...

"The reality of what I’m doing has finally hit me- yeah its taken all day..., now is not a good time to cry. It's scary, this whole thing. But at the same time I know that no matter what happens I will be proud that I took the chance, took the risk, this is definitely outside of my comfort zone Chris. It feels so unreal, its kind of like im being propelled forward continuously. But oh well, its Samoa right? Tropical Island and all that, surely it has to be good!"
