I did something for Charity on Sunday: The Climb for MS. Something very selfless. Initially I had absolutely no idea of the symptoms that was  associated with this disease. I joined because my coworkers all wanted to do it. Before I sent out my URL for donations via my social networks I did some research about the disease and I was in tears. I knew no one personally with this disease and watching videos of people with it and having  friends tell me stories about peers who had passed away brought tears to my eyes. I made my donation goal in one day. Thanks to the following people: Charlene, Adam, Emily, Fuze, Samuel and Tony.

By the way, I missed my train that morning and thought I would miss the 6:45am start but I made it on time.

I climbed 1215 steps in 16 minutes (15:59), our CEO did it in 14:41 (amazing!).

I was so dizzy at the top but the experience was exhilarating!

After this, I joined my friend @gardenia for a 3 hour crash course of Salsa on Two dancing. Yay to my surroundings keeping me active throughout 2012.

    So I just went and counted the stairs in our building….um, seeing as how I’m slightly winded after climbing 42 stairs, I definitely tip my hat to you for climbing 1,215, that’s crazy! Great Job
