I just discovered a new found interest-ICE SKATING! Well in fact i think I have an interest in most of the sports activities. Yeap so today was when the fun start, I had ice skating session and had a wheel of my time there, probably just discount the morning when i rushed my way to school so that I won't miss the bus fetching us from school to fuji ice palace. Well when i reached school, i was informed that we were actually 1 hour earlier because the skating rink won't be opened till 9+? Gahh, make me rush for nothing lol!
So we reached there, changed into skates and waited for our chance to use the rink. Guess what, I was walking quite easily with the skates outside the rink and i thought i could balance myself inside the rink, many people thought so too=p On the contrary, once i got into the rink, I lost my balance and fell, yes i was the first casualty lol! It was my second session so it was ok I guess. However like what many say, failure is the mother of success, I picked myself up and was soon able to skate properly already XD
I didn't fall again until during the introductory lesson when we were asked to do the turn. Haha this young guy just whiz past me and I was caught by surprise and I landed on my butt. Lol it was bad! That wasn't the worst fall of the day though, the worst one was when i tried picking up speed and got so excited that i jumped into the air and landed on my knees. OUCH! My knee hurt darn badly la and I was so scared I couldn't make it for tomorrow's adventure challenge.
Well I don't think I learnt much during the lesson, but I learnt quite a bit from steph(that's how they call her by). Yeap it's Aileen's classmate, a darn pro figure skater! Whoo I didn't know Nj has hidden talents! Yeap I managed to talk to her, so I asked her for help and tips on skating. She taught me to brake properly and yeap she also taught me the steps for crossing over. Crossing over was quite hard, I kept practising but still couldn't get it at the end of the session. Well but i swear there were a few decent ones. Yeap I couldn't take the extreme pain on my feet and my legs in general anymore, that i decided to stop no matter how much I yearn to perfect the crossing over. Haha thank you steph, all the best for your competition on monday! Haha oh well, then I went for lunch with Aileen's class. A bunch of nice people who are very bonded as a class.
No one from my class went, so I was hanging around with the 04 people. Well we were all having fun until this moment when something struck us by surprise and changed everyone's mood. A few of them cried but even though I felt sad for him, it wasn't to that extreme, probably because I'm not say very close to the person. However when I put myself into his shoes, I felt scared. I seriously don't know how I would react. I was scared but I was afraid of coming up with an answer, so I continued to skate after they left because none of them were in the mood to continue. Sigh I can tell he's quite like me, strong on the outside but i bet he's soft in the inside too. This would be a big blow to his life, I seriously don't know what to do for him.
