What a real mission this was-

Mission Peak. Located on Mission, midpoint of Milpitas and Fremont. Woke up this morning around 6am to get ready. Headed over to the place, and saw: Maureen, Les, Janine, JR, Rachel, Don, Mimi, Troung, and I came with Steph, and Dino. We started. We absolutely had about 9 stops. But there were 4 rest stops, then the top of the hill. We were at the rockiest path before reaching the top. Actually there were a lot of them. AND HILLS so high up, once you see a ending at the top, there's just more to go. That happened like 6 times. I always assume hhaha. Our stops aren't like 20 minutes, it's not even half. More like 4 minutes. We kep going and going and going. How far ? How long? Well, it was almost 2 hours when we got to the top. We can see long strips of clouds floating over the peak. Crazyy. My thighs, ankles, buttox, feet, arms, everything was aching. I finished both of my only water bottles once we got to the top. We came by a cow, and then a heard of cows, then a field of cow poop. Yuck. Got sweaty, Dino was flooding, everyone else was hot. What we all noticed was that, the guys were complaining so much, but the girls werent hahah. Interesting. We barely passed anyone. We probably passed them, but tat the rest stop, they would go past us! Hahah, it was interesting how old people can hike for a long period of time without stopping. I was beat! Man, that was the longest straveling ever this week! I couldn't even run it, it was too hard, way too many hills. We got all the way to the top, the breeze was fantastic, loved the air. It was good for 20 min, but we had to get back down before it gets hotter during the day. Going down was faster, but killed my feet ! My toes hurted, and my ankle)= Hopefully I didn't sprain it or anything. I slipped like 3 times, but I didn't tumble. GOING DOWN THAT ROCKY STEEP PATH? Oh I could not pass it over. I had to get down that way, there was no other option. Going back down was nothing man, 30 minutes I think. I would love to go back again, maybe in 3 weeks haahha, I need to heal lol. I enjoyed it. Some Jovey & some LBFC youth time. Got back down, can't breifly explain what happened, so tired T.T But, Kuya Dino Steph and JR kept throwing rocks at the squirrels and birds. It was funny, but I had to watch my step. After, we went to a hawaiian place to eat. Good stuff, Maureen gave me food)= I didn't want any but she ended up ripping her box and putting food on it for me. Woo, I had raspberry iced tea. REFRESHING! Almost slept in the car on the way home. Came home, saw Nathaniel trying to parallel park. Blah I was tired. Went in my room, took a shower. Came out with my dad HELLA SCREAMING AT ME when he saw a mail/ letter that said i had a $125 fine for cross country uniform. I told him I'll talk to my coach cause I knew I turned it in. Then he goes on twisting his words saying I better not have lost it. & I already pointed out the main points. He just wants to win the argument. What a pain in the ass. He's been my pain in the ass. Won't leave me alone with these little misconceptions. Jeez. So, I'm kind of sleepy. Gonna sleep, wake up read/annotate then head out to the store. FYL.
