i shall slack for this weekend at least. and maybe cramp in some stuff over the free nights during the 2 free and non-shagged-out nights i have during the weekday.
copied this from my climb team friend...

sometimes, you just happen to be at the right place with the right person.but at the wrong time.
as i climb more, the more i learn about this world and how life works.using brute force may get you somewhere, but it's unsightly, and it draws criticism from everyone. doing the right thing at the right time is what's important.that's where technique comes in.a simple movement can relieve you of pain and suffering.that's where footwork comes in.there is no point holding on to something so tightly that it stifles nothing but you.that's where tile-holding comes in.never give up until you know what you are intending to do next is gonna hurt you or someone else.that's where determination and willpower comes in, along with a dose of sensibility.a wall with many colourful tiles.which one to hold,which one to step on? which tiles will you choose for your route to your end-tile? an easy unchallenging one or a killer which will bring you satisfaction and pride upon completion? your choice. your approach.i want to climb better. i want to win. but i also want to find peace in climbing. this is where balance comes in.when will i find the perfect route?
maybe never, but i'll wait and see.

true, but i would like to add another perspective to it.
what if the "correct" way to top the route differs for different people. tall people and short people might have to test the route differently, but both leads to the final tile. the taller one might find the short's way of attempting the route strenuous, and vice versa. but each attempt made by each individual is perfectly tailored to his/her physical attributes.
and who says that we have to use crimper as a crimper? a jug as a jug?we were taught what most of the rest we told previously. why cant we set our own style? begin our virgin climbing experience with our own style? do it your way.
all that said. the root to the problem might simply be inspiration. inspired to get down to it. to do it, and complete it. we need not be influence by peer pressure by peer influence. just be yourself, do what u think u shld do or what u want to do despite it being wrong or against ur ideals.
peace in climbing. very well said. i need my peace in life. i need inspiration.
darn. how did i end up in climbing and speak in climbing linggo!
i miss tennis. alot.
so what's the correct method to take to read this entry? did i mean everything here literally or figuratively? my ans would be, somewhere in between the both.
