THE MONSTER CLIMBING WALL
As I watched my friends climb the wall my heart started pounding furiously knowing that I was next. Ace's arm's were tired and Hamish's arms were still trying but slowly giving out. When it came to me I looked up and the only thing that I saw was a monster climbing wall that was taller than a house I felt I wanted to conquer this wall like everyone else.
It came to my turn and I was NERVE WRECKED my friends conquered it & I wanted to become like them so badly !!!. I started climbing foot by foot, hand by hand it was getting harder by the second & my muscles were shaking. so I couldn't lift an arm or leg, I knew it would come down to this.
When I heard everyone shouting me to go farther I went a little more but that was it! My arms & legs gave out, I was losing my grip. The only thing that was going through my mind was that this was actually fun because I love a good challenge. That's when I realized that it’s was why they called it the monster climbing wall.
I told them I was tired & if they could let me down so my muscles could rest. I didn't make it to the top but I gave it my all. I started watching others as I walked to the belay team and started pulling the rope so that Reuben didn't fall when his arms or legs gave out.
