Skates

After nearly 10 years, I finally get to skate again! The last time being in Beijing, the underground of China World Trade Center Complex.

Truly have been longing for it, though seeing the crowd in the small skating rink is not comfortable. It was tough having to avoid crashing into people, and to get used to the professionals who fly over everywhere. Yes they are scary, and I wonder if they are around to help or to scare people off balance. whew~

And the price to pay for being brave. As I had done with roller-skates, it was rather easy to speed up when the floor was clear... and hence tending to fall. And the lack of braking skill! It was rather hard to learn.

And now, my knees are buried within dry ice, for the sores and the colorful black and blue and red and... plues my stiff neck and cramped shoulders... hoho~

Yet there comes my crave to dig out my roller-skates. I wonder if they are still in one piece or parts of them melted away... >.<

Longing for the next trip ~ XD
