Blading mania cum Dancesport temptations

Finally, today is the day when i once again put on roller blades and try it on the bumpy East Coast Park trail. It has been a long time since i bladed (as though i bladded alot.. haha.. bladed only 2 times before!!). I was late and decided to take a taxi as I dun wan to reach the place and end up blading for a little while only.

I called Chang Shiung when i reached and got to know that Merv and Ming will reach soon, and so i waited for them. Me and Merv proceeded to rent the blades. It was very scary when I first stood up and tried to walk around.. although i should already be used to the balancing from experience in ice skating. The down slope from the shop to the pavement was the scariest, cos I dun know how to brake!! I nearly got into a collision with some bicycles! So there me and Merv started our baby steps (Ming already expert, Merv was first time). We went in the direction where I think CS and Pris will be (They arrived first).

Making slow progress, Merv and me moved inch by inch towards the direction of where the others were (Ming was with us, but his is not inch by inch, his is like flying!!). The humps were not as scary as I thought (had very bad experience with it the 1st time I tried blading). Saw Pris and CS down the road and the next aim for me was the end of the trail. After a looooong time, finally reach the end! hee

Made a U-turn and continued back to the original starting point. Ming went ahead and bought us all cold drinks (So nice of him right?). Andrew joined us at this point (CS went off and Pris went Macs to rest) and we tried the other direction. Bladed halfway before we decided to give up.. no strength already.. need to reserve some for the journey back!!

Me and merv returned our blades and then joined the rest for drinks. After drinking and chit-chatting, its time to go.. Pris called her friends, merv and I joined her in a ride to the MRT in Yan's car. All the way, Pris and her other female friend in the car were worried abt Yan's wrist injury (I learned later that it was quite bad, had to put cast). Reached MRT and I took the train to studio.

Another night of temptation at the studio. Was so restless the whole time cos of the beat of the music and the atmosphere. Well.. tried to dance abit to release that pent-up energy, but dun know what moves to use, cos no routine and no partner, so end up just do simple steps. Ended the day with the Super cool music in my head!! haha
