Activities and Hobbies
Posted by Frankie Perazzola on January 20, 2019 at 1:31 amWhat are some hobbies you have or things you enjoy doing? Does FA make it difficult?
How have you adapted your activities to make them work with your FA?

Some hobbies I enjoy doing are watching the Ducks (Go Ducks), rock climbing (which I started to do on a weekly basis as a New Years resolution), and hanging out with friends or communicating with friends via Skype or FaceTime! Nothing make me as hyped as when Oregon beats a PAC 12 foe, especially OSU or UW. Rock climbing is a great way of working out and I enjoy it a lot! Friends are really what drive me. Acquiring the positive energy friends give me is unlike anything else! Chatting with friends over Skype or FaceTime is such a great time. I am really grateful for my friends!

Hey, tell me more about rock climbing. I was talking to a friend last night and said I wanted to try it, but I have no idea how it will go. I have decent upper body strength, but any leg strength will be unreliable. How do you do it, @kywaterman? Is it enjoyable?

You should definitely try it! I use almost all my upper body strength and my legs are pretty much useless!😂 You’ll probably be sore, but that is good pain! It is an incredible feeling getting to the goal you set. Start low and slowly increase when setting a goal, and be realistic and reasonable! You might not get to the top your first try, but don’t give up! For me, it’s awesome because like the whole gym cheers me on!! I love the energy!

Haha I love good pain! You definitely sold me and now I can’t wait to go. I’ll let you know when I do.

I love rock climbing too!!!!!!!!!!!! The feeling of accomplishment is just indescribably amazing. I second what Kyle said about trying it! (My new years resolution was to go weekly too 😀 )
