Workouts, tanning, doing some on my online class work, taking 500 pictures as my assignment so I might head on over to Tahoe for some of those or just cus I'm bored hahaha and can drive. I'm also kinda waiting on this stitched up gouge on my knee to heal up so I can catch the end of spring skiing... I gotta wait cus if I go with the way I ski it would be ripped open for sure. It doesn't sound like a big deal, it's only 4 stitches but it just itches and meh and I can't do all my workout stuff that I want, and I'm afraid I'll mess it up somehow and I don't need more stuff that has to be fixed on me... I'm just done with it know what I mean? I'm so ready for it to be over haha BQ: Um... I dunno I still liked Siddhartha by Herman Hesse even tho a few people I know didn't like it... I do :) BQ: Well that would be quite the catastrophe! I'm really sorry about your cow, I just thought I'd tell you that I think her and her calf found a better place where the grass is as green as Ireland and there's enough grain to fill an ocean with clean ponds and nice places to walk :) Feel better ok? :)

Mt. Fuji, Been there, done that. At the top it is very cold. Even though it is warm at the bottom. Yes, there are vending machines at the top, also the toilets costs 200 yen. When I climbed there was a person who collected your 200 yen before you entered. Even though it is called climbing, it is more like walking and hiking. The climing trail is clearly marked and deviating from the marked area will just make your ascent more difficult. The descent is almost as difficult as the ascent.
The common thing to do is to climb to the top during the night and reach the top to see the sunrise.
It has been said:
"Those who climb Mt. Fuji are fools, those who climb a second time are twice the fool."

There's a death forest near Fuji where people go to commit suicide. Compasses don't work there due to iron deposits in the ground, so it's the place to go lose yourself for good (at least before GPS?!). I guess the thinking is that if you are missing long enough to be declared dead your family will eventually get the insurance money, whereas there would be no payout for an obvious suicide.

It is a small solo moutain, means no other mountain around it. Its top peak is always covered with white snow. You can see this mountain while traveling between Osaka to Tokyo only if the weather is sunny outside. It is a beautiful mountain and not so far from urban population.

En general estoy bastante desorientada pero me gusta hacer deportes, buscado en los sitios web he encontrado un GPS especial para mí, la verdad es que además del buen precio el reloj con GPS me ha impresionada por la multitud de cosas que lleva y además funciona perfecto, una excelente compra sin duda.
