Its a bird.. its a plane... Nope.. its Miranda

Hey there everyone. It was quite enjoyable meeting some of you on Friday night. I hope you have enjoyed Sophies fun posts the past few days as I have been MIA. Why have I been MIA might you ask? Well I decided to go camping up in Maine on Saturday. Again, Why you might ask? Well, there was a good reason. I had to work all day on Saturday and ended up driving to New Hampshire when I got out of work to meet up with one of my sorority sisters, Tara. She was my "big sister" in the sorority when I was in school. So I met up with her and 5 other people and we drove to Lebanon, Maine. (Its actually just across the NH border.. I had no idea before this weekend either....) By the time we got up there and got situated, it was around 9:30, dark, and we still had to pitch our tent. We had 2 tents between the 7 of us, but one of them had 2 rooms so we were all good. We managed to leave the headlights of the car on so that we could pitch the tents, but ended up running the battery dead in the process. Oops. So we had everything set and then the 7 of us, and our 2 dogs (a pug and a pekinese) headed off to the bonfire where we stayed and drank, ate and chatted til almost 3 AM. For those of you who know me, this was a HUGE deal. Getting me to camping, that is. I am not exactly in touch with nature and am more than a girly girl when it comes to bugs and creepy crawlies. However, Im also a good sport and figured I'd give it a shot. It wasnt that bad actually. I had a blast, minus the bugs. I finally got to use my sleeping bag and everything. I think you might even be able to twist my arm to do it again. Maybe.

So we got up around 8AM this morning and headed over to the main area. We were camping on the ground of a Skydiving agency. 5 of us planned on jumping today, and with the exception of 1 other guy and myself, everyone else had been before. So we had our "class" at 9AM this morning, and didnt end up even jumping until around 1 or so. Reading all the waivers and basically signing your life away is definatley one of the scariest parts. But we got all suited up and they took us out to the runway and up we went. I went with 2 of the girls, and the other 2 friends went in the group right after us. So I did a backflip out of a plane at 13,500 feet. Pretty cool.. no? :) Absolutely hands down one of the neatest experiences of my life. I even bought the DVD to prove it. Although, arguably, a DVD of us at the campsite would probably be just as valuable..haha.

So I know that has nothing to do with dating or any of that stuff, but hey, its our blog, and we can post what we want. And thats what I felt like posting today. So deal with it :)

Xoxoxo.
