Gliding

I have decided to just ignore those people. I don't care, I think I can cope with it. I have been coping much with other things (not as much as some other people) and therefore I can cope with things. May that be orthodox thinkings, or whatever. A church cant grow if there are disagreements and I guess I don't want to let my personal matters block the flow of grace to others in the church. Plus, if the other people can't change, or isn't willing to change, then there's no reason why I can't too. I surrender myself to God's decision and if this is His, I will follow it. I'll just get out from my comfortable zone and maybe suffer slightly from discomfort before I get used to it.

Gliding was awesome today! I was just enjoying myself too much. Nearly 3 hours of flying was much too fun! But now my whole body is tired...

Anyway, I did the CHAOTIC check today and I also did the CARD check for some flights (including the "take up slack" and "all out" signals).

The first flight was pretty depressing coz I can't control the aircraft. Approach was okay but the landing was shit because I flared much too early. The second flight, however, was amazing. I could actually control it pretty well. I improved a bit despite the fact that I did a few spins (as the result of trying to turn the plane quickly, to which Mark told me that I can turn quickly and gracefully too!). But we were good, I did around 2,000-2,500ft of thermalling (the rest was done by Mark) before we reached 5,400ft.

Well, too tired to continue. G'nite.
