Only One Way Dowm

Link
A number of experiences or achievements that a person hopes to have or accomplish during their lifetime. This is a bucket list. Although this is Google’s definition, my definition is doing everything you've always wanted to do before you die. Many people have activities like traveling the world, rock climbing, or little things like burying a time capsule in their yard, and writing a song. Theres one thing I've always wanted to do and it’s skydiving.
Skydiving is a sport that gives you a rush yet makes you terrified. Falling from 10,000 feet or even 100,000 feet. One of the places I want to go is North Wollongong Beach, Sydney Australia. The deep blue waters with the whales and dolphins swimming and frolicking is the reason people get drawn into the beautiful shoreline. They offer tandem (your first jump attached to your instructor), and solo jumps (freefall without instructor). They also have night jumps so you can fall under the stars over the inky, obsidian like sea.
Although North Wollongong Beach, Sydney Australia is where I want to go, theres a lot of local places near Pendleton, OR such as Skydive Oregon. Skydive Oregon is located in Molalla, OR and it offers the training as well as the single or tandem jumps. It offers you to fall 13,000 feet which is approximately a one minute jump. If you’re wanting to go skydiving somewhere in or near Oregon, this is the one and only place.

In other words, my dream has always been able to jump free and feel the rush. l plan to save up around $3,000 to be able to go. I want to go as a graduation vacation or maybe when I’m older with some friends or family. Sure there’s a lot of fatal accidents but what’s the fun in it without the curiosity and thrill.
