Hang gliding! (And a couple other 101 list updates)

This update is way late because I've gotten way behind on blogging, but... I went hang gliding!

It would have been way easier if I had actually done that before I left Provo... as it was, I had to try a few different times when I was in Provo, but the weather was not cooperating. But it finally worked out! I was supposed to go paragliding, but the weather changed and it got really windy, so I did the hang gliding instead. I bought a Groupon and went with Birdman Academy and it was amazing. It also ended up being a great choice that I went with them, since they do both hang gliding and paragliding... so depending on the weather, I got to do one of them. I got a video and a few pictures.  And I got to FLY!  It was such an amazing feeling and I wish I could have done it longer. I still wish I lived in the Provo area so I could maybe do that more often... the Point of the Mountain is apparently one of the best places in the world for consistent conditions for hang gliding and paragliding. Hopefully I'll be able to go paragliding sometime in the future, or at least hang gliding again. Cuz it was awesome.

Another thing that I probably should've done before I left Provo... "See a movie in every theater of the dollar theater." I tried to complete that before I left, but I ended up seeing movies in the last two theaters once I already moved and was visiting for various reasons. Glad I was finally able to pull it off. List of theaters and movies (don't judge... sometimes I just really needed the theater and didn't care what the movie was).

• Theater 5—The Muppets (2/21/12)
•  Theater 7—Lockout (5/23/12); The Lucky One (7/3/12)
•  Theater 1—Mirror, Mirror (7/2/12)
• Theater 4—Snow White and the Huntsman (10/8/12)
• Theater 6—Total Recall (10/9/12)
• Theater 8—Brave (10/17/12)
• Theater 3—Breaking Dawn: Part 2 (2/18/13)
• Theater 2—Monsters University: 3D (10/12/13)

I also crossed off get a hot stone massage from my 101 list. Again, I bought a Groupon, and went and got a 90-minute hot stone massage. And that massage therapist worked me over good.  I was sort of in pain the next day... but it was a good pain. I love massages, and it was fun to try to different technique. (Speaking of Groupons... I think I have another one for another massage that I need to redeem. I should get on that.)

I also completed "Drink 64 ounces of water every day for two weeks."  I may have done this at some point before and just not realized it. But during those two weeks I actually kept track. I know I do need to be drinking more water more consistently. At one point, I actually ended up drinking a full gallon of water a day for 6 days and it was amazing how much better I felt. One of those simple things I need to remember to do more consistently, I guess (especially since I really haven't been remembering to drink enough water lately).

And, finally, I also got to cross off "see 10 different plays or musicals I haven't seen before. That was a fun goal.
