Though I'd share. Such an amazing piece of writing, thanks to a friend for linking me this. Hopefully, one day in the future, I'll be able to write to this standard.

Fact: bouldering is awesome.
Had an amazing day today, just chilling and climbing with friends. You'd think bouldering's a pretty individual competitive sport but it's not. Not the slightest bit. You get so much support from your mates, constructive help with moves and routes, cheers and pushes. You truly only compete with yourself*, aim a little harder, give a little more to send another route. And the company is great, everyone is connected and passionate about the same thing and hence you never lack something to talk about. Climbing after all is only half the time on the wall, the other half sitting and resting, talking to others, watching and learning. I love my main climbing gym, ECAT, because the people there are so good natured and chillax. I'm not the most outgoing person but over there I'm constantly meeting new people, and making new friends making my climbing experience all the more worth while. I might be reluctant, tired, whatever beforehand, but I never end up regretting going.
As you can probably tell, I had a great session today, five hours total. Sent six fives, most fives I've ever done in one day and also tried out and succeeded at a few hard moves, traversed the entire length of the top rope wall, and finished three reps of my friend's torturous ab/core workout.
I'd say I kicked off this sem break to a good start.
*my brother is the only exception, we be very competitive in a fun way.
