i ended up going ice skating with my cousin's two kids. (they're 15 and 10, so able to hang out when i'm in my not so sane mood).
its been years since i've been ice skating, or even roller blading, basically anything else than shoes/slippers on my feet. the last time i went ice skating was with the doctor and his brother the dj. remember when atta? cause i don't. could it be a decade ago???
i did not fall, lucky me hahaha... but ya know, one thing i realized, if you know how to roller blade, its pretty much the same with skates on ice. it all starts with being able to stand up, that's the hardest part. then its just trying to glide.
no, i'm not even 1% of an Xgames person. but i think i can survive pretty well from looking like a complete fool on blades. just make sure its a straight and level path ahead, thank you. else it'd be disney on ice.
after all these years, i found out one main ingredient about surviving on blades. its all about tying your laces. i admit, i'm the most laziest person and never used to tie em up to the top. that explains why my legs kept bending in like a freakin duck.
what's so thrilling about ice skating besides feeling like a mighty duck zooming in to take the penalty? well i'd have to say, the other joy from it is watching people fall. its quite hilarious. especially those who think they're really good at it. they prance around showing off their skills, then they fall, along with their egos =D
most valuable lesson i've learnt from skating:
if you're going relatively fast (in your own opinion), the easiest and fastest way to lose all that momentum, is to crash into the wall. saved me more than once from banging into others :)
happy merdeka people!

i tried ice skating like 3 years ago..and I think I fell on my butt for like....20times..lol..it was kinda scary when i was on the floor you know, trying to get up quickly..i was thinking like, what if the person behind me couldn't stop in time and then crash-landed on me? or worse, his/her ice skates just sliced my fingers into parts..
hahaha yeaaa initially you'd fall A LOT! i remember when i first started too, you need a real good cushion butt! but getting up is another problem, coz damn hard to balance hahaha...
