Had an awesome day yesterday!!! A combination of firsts…
I always wanted to bungee jump and yesterday a few of my friends and I got around to trying to kill our selves :P Anant and Swetha wrote about it here and here. I wont go into the details coz they have done a good job explaining it :) But one thing that surprised me was that I did not hesitate…
sequence of events:
(as the ramp slowly moved close to 120feet off the ground…)
me: Wow it looks beautiful from here(It was 8 pm so the it was dark skyes and beautiful bangalore lights from up there)\
him: What is your name?
me: Chandrahasa
him: Hello Chandrahasa, this is xyz. There is a bit of wind today… Is it your first time
me: yes
him: dont worry, its absolutely safe. When I give tell you walk up to the edge… I will count 1…2…3 and then just free fall…
me: ok! (Now I was really enjoying this)
him: Move forward… (a sec or two later) 1..2..3
me: (looking down the whole time… leans forward)
The whole thing happened in like 10s but It was so worth it. I loved the first free fall, that is the most scariest, you just forget about the rope and all you can see is the ground zooming right at you. Once you are pulled back up thats when you feel the safest and then its just like flying.
What scares me the most is that when the moment came I did not think twice… Now when i walk up to a ledge I am a little scared that I might just jump off without thinking :P I dont want to kill myself… Maybe I just want to fly :)
If you have never done it YOU HAVE TO DO THIS ATLEAST ONCE IN YOUR LIFE :)
The second first(cant believe I wrote that :P) was my first ever audition :) This was for an advertisement… i wont go into the details and no it was not a modeling like assignment :P The whole thing was kindof cool coz its my first time… The char I was asked to audition for was actually not very flattering but what the heck I was really doing it to enjoy myself :)
Anyway hope i can do more of both in the (near)future :)
