no on is one still...
oh ok.... we can keep chatting hahaha
hahaha thanksss
so what would you do with a million dollars?
well... I would probably put about a lot of it in life insurance and other investments that is not a gamble
ok good idea what else
I probably use a lot of the money to finish college and fund my environmental projects and hopefully get it to a place where it can pay for itself I might also take the money and go to grad school RISD.
RISD?
yeah its Rhode Island School of Design. Its the best design school in the world and the tuition is like 40 grand a year
holy crappp that is so much money
yeah it is thats probably what I would do with a million dollars
you have a lot of things that is a good investment in your future anything that is just purely for fun?
well I probably would buy a nice car or a Tesla model X probably maybe buy a nice house or something small so that I could live there and I would probably buy a dog what about you? what would you do?
I probably would buy a really nice video gaming streaming rig and I would fund my own streaming career until I make it or I probably would go and do van life
oh fun yeah I think that would be really fun too!
why tesla?
I think teslas are super cool and so fast! I drove an all electric car before and they are so fast and I loved to ride it I was really happy to see that when I pressed on the gas pedal that the power from the electric battery immediately was transferred to the wheel and the car bolted off the lin line it was really cool!!!!
that is cool!
I think that it would be really cool to change my tesla model x to become a really cool crawler I would probably lift it about 4 inches and I would add some all terrain tires then I would also make sure that it has a big rack on top so that either I can carry a lot of stuff or I would put a roof top tent. I would also remove the bumpers and add some steel bumpers.
wow that sounds like a big project
hahaha thanks yeah I think it would be really cool if I had the money to do something like that I also thought about doing the van life too! I think that the van life is so attractive because I can be free from living at a place and being stuck there another thing I think is really attractive about van life is that I can travel anywhere I want as long as it is land vehicle accessible I guess I can go over seas If I really wanted to and just ride a boat over there. I might do it to go to Europe or something and do a tour there
oh I never thought about doing a tour in Europ never thought about more than just staying in the states or canada
yeah I know right? I would probably go all over the west coast I would start from washington and go all the way down the coast line until I reach the Mexican Bajas
yeah me too! I think the Bajas would be so cool
yeah but if you go too far down the peninsula you will get in trouble because there are a lot of bad guys that will steal everything from you or even kidnap you because you are american.
yeah for sure. I hear that driving to mexico can be a bit scary if you go down too far
right its just better to fly down there
so where would you live if you can and money wasn't an issue
I would definitely live somewhere where the climate is warm and a little bit humid. Humidity really helps my skin and helps it to be healthier I feel like. When I lived on the East Coast the humidity really help my skin and I didnt break out as much as I do in Utah. My hair also was a lot healthier because of the humidity The dryness is nice in Utah because it doesnt get too hot or too cold because of the piercing humidity but if I am going to live somewhere tropical or warm that is closer to the equator than I rather live somewhere humid than dry because I wont have the winters that will kill me
thats a good idea I hate winters too and I rather be in warm or even hot weather you said you rock climbed right?
yeah
have you seen the latest Reel Rock movie
yeah I have and it was soooo goood! I loved Margo Hayes
me too!
she is such an inspiration to me. Her confidence and dedication to be the first female climber to climb the rating of 5.15 was just so inspiring her journey to it was cool and nobody knew anything about her which is insane. She just came out of nowhere and conquered this famous 5.15 and now have achieved more 5.15 climbs until her belt
yeah isn't it something? I think that she will really become the face of the female climbers
yeah totally. I hope that she keeps going and doesnt injure herself or anything
same
I also love her quirky personality its really cute hahaha but shes very fierce when it comes to climbing
do you remember the free solo climber? I can't remember his name....
yeah I remember. that whole story made my palms sweat like crazy!
same... free soloist are nuts
yeah they are... when he broke his back I felt so bad but at the same time I was like that is what he was gambling with death/very bad injury or life you can't be safe but I was inspired by his recovery and how he managed to keep going and he is still climbing like crazy
yeah for sure
its so crazy that even Alex Honnold was like saying basically this guy has more bravery than he does because he will climb some free solo routes or trad climbs that are rated that are x rated and he will still do it
do you remember that part where he almost missed that important hold?
oh my gosh.... that was so scary the guy was belaying himself and training on the same route so that he can try to free solo the route and when he attempted the guy who was filming was really nervous because it was either him making to the top or he is filming his death and he said that when he got to the crux of the climb he couldnt watch because he knew how hard the move was for the crux
yeah totally
so crazy the way they filmed it and edited it was so good because it showed how intense that moment was very accurately and I could relate but at the same time not becuase I never free soloed a route before and I dont plan on doing it ever in my life
yeah please don't ever free solo anything I do not want another fellow climber to die because of stupidity or anything
yeah for sure I mean I still get really psyched out when I am doing trad climbs or even some sport climbs when I reach an over hang or something and I cant see the hold and my arms are getting pumped out that really makes me nervous. Especially when I am above the draw like 5  fett feet super scary
yeah I feel yoou
man its really making my hands sweaty just talking about this stuff
my favorite was the last one where the girl only had one arm
yesss wow that was crazy. I dont know how good of a climber she would be if she had two hands to climb with its so inspiring!!!
right?
that woman climbed a 5.12 with one hand and even Tommy Caldwell couldn't do what she was doing and he is a legend
hahaha that part in the movie made me laugh when he showed up
hahahahaha me to me too I think that these people that I got to watch were really inspiring people who want to just achieve their goals that is why I love climbing one climbers are generally pretty chill and two they just want to get high on the rocks! but the most attractive thing about climbing is that its all about goals and progression and it is really easy to keep track of how good you are getting because the climbs are rated. and you get personally gauge on how better you are getting by how hard and high you can climb
yeah I agree with you I think the reason why it attracts me is because its a solo sport where you are your own opponent and if you can't get to the top of the climb it is because you just weren't good or strong enough
yeah i never thought about it that way. that is really interesting and its so true. I played la crosse and it was really frustrating sometimes because, i dont mean to brag, but I was definitely the best player on the team and I wanted to just do everything myself because my teammates would always turn over the ball or miss shots or just make a lot of mistakes, so I wanted to hog the ball as much as possible until my coach got angry at me for it she wanted me to share and play as a team. I hated that I had to depend on my teammates sometimes and it was easy to put the blame on them
yes me too soccer was the same except I wasn't the best player hahaha I totally understand where you are coming from though
yeah its really easy to put the blame on others but i guess like you say in rock climbing, its a solo sport so it all depends on you and only you can put the blame on yourself for making the wrong moves, or not seeing the foot hold clearly or not adjusting the body weight or simply that you just ate mcdonalds for a pre workout because its cheap and you were hungry
hahahaha that is hilrarious
hahahaha well I guess sometimes you can put the blame on the belayer if they shorten your rope or pull you off or something I've done that many many many times and my friends dont shut up about it
hahahaha thats what friends are for
hahah yeah they are you have friends so you can make fun of each other
you are not wrong hahaha so where do you usually go climbing?
inside or outside?
both
well I used to go to the Quarry a lot but only when its like winter time or something or if I just want to train really hard I like to go to the quary a lot because its nice to climb on plastic. its fast. you dont have to hike to the climbs or set up anything or place any gear you can just check in and hop on a route and start climbing
yeah for sure I go to the quarry sometimes only winter time though I froze my pass because its really warm outside now
yeah I need to go outside and climb like in rock canyon or something like that because I haven't gone since school ended the last time I went was probably during winter semester when we went to go climb in st. george
oh nice where did you go in st. george?
to be honest I cant really remember where the area was called but further down the canyon there were some really good sport routes as well as trad routes and in the middle of the canyon there were some boulders that were really fun to climb I couldnt do any of the bouldering because I am not really good at bouldering but my boyfriend had a great time doing the bouldering there
yeah I am also a big boulderer you will have to find out what area that is so I can check it out!
yeah for sure! its a blast it was really close to the famous bouldering area in st. george. I forget the name of that place too... sorry
no worry no worries.
man I am getting so tired. I've dozed off a few times I haven't pulled an all nighter in a long time
I have
well I guess i pulled an all nighter with you last week hahaha I wonder if anyone else is on right now
you can check
