We Know What's Going On

Earlier after having dinner but everyone is still around the table and having fun talking about random things. My younger brother is busy with his phone and my mother peek to what he is watching. He showed it to my mother while telling I want to try jumping from the plane. I suddenly butt in, I'm going to try paragliding while smiling. My brother meet my eyes with excitement and he smiled. Wink! silently agreeing to something. I stand up and they do the same, we started cleaning up the table while I continue what was left unsaid earlier, there's a good spot for skydiving in cebu and I already look into it. Bro : will you be on leave for vacation, let me come. Me : let's go! let's skydive (smiling subtly) Our mother is already walking ahead of us to the kitchen while completely not saying anything and I'm behind her then my brother. My brother hasn't stop yet he continue by saying something like "If I'm going to face death someday, I'd rather first feel what's it's like to be close to the sky." I turnaround, and saw him laughing without a sound. I shot him a look, telling him to stop. We kind of tease our mother because she always worry in advance which we could understand but also we want her to trust us. When we go on vacation my mother only know we're on vacation. What we did during that time, she'll find out when we return home. Photo from last year, letting myself drop and swing from a 120 feet freefall pendulum swing together with my best friend.

I'm scared of heights so wouldn't do any of those things! I get scared in tall buildings if I can see out a window.

@Jehanne I hope you both enjoyed the swing, though.

that's understandable. My friend who joined me also got scared but only on that since we were hang upside down. Dragging slowly up before we pulled it for dropping and swing.

@DaddyEvil my best friend didn't fully enjoy it. But glad that was the last extreme activity we done that day.

It looks really scary. As for me I don't think I would enter that

I can tell I'm stubborn in a good way At the end, my best friend wants to not try it but she had no other choice since the crew already tie the safety harness. I end up telling her trust me we can do it! Shout our worries away.

Omg! I can’t believe you would do that! My nephew parachuted from a plane twice and would do it again. Not me!

I did like extreme activities. Hoping to experience the same your nephew did. If my friend hadn't drag me, I have to do it so many times as there are other people waiting in line and some got scared after seeing us. End up offering their paid tickets. My friend don't want to do it again, so maybe next time.

woah!!! that's once in a lifetime experience I want to really try. Jumped out of a plane but of course I'm not confident doing it alone A tandem would do.

dangling at such height is quite scary.
