hey! here we are in Fuji Ice palace! first time i've been here..

To learn how to skate.. i was quite reluctant to enter the ring, honestly.. coz i'm sure the floor would sure be slippery!!! but we paid for the course, of coz i must have the courage of not being afraid of falling down.. see my fingers? the red gloves over there la.. sAY cHeeSe! we griped tightly to the railings so that photographs could be taken.. haiz.. might as well alked about what happened.. for the first 2 hours, there was a coah to teach us the basic skills of skating- skate in a 'V' shape. - dOnOt Hold ur friend's haNds! coz if somebody 'bo' balance, then everybody has a high chance of falling down too.. stuff like that. then say wat take small steps.. like marching like tat. lift the legs up a little. i almost fell a few times, tat is, half way down la-- there were cones, friends' hands for support. after that, we were left to practise on our own. it was basically self-practice, this sport. we went about skating a few inches round the ring.( forgot to mention, it was cold initially,but as we exercised , we perspired n became HoT!) at this rate, we were easily ''crashed'' into a lot of people. alot of pro skaters skated swiftly, playing catching or wad one. so envious lor.. plus josephine , hilary they all learn so fast - for beginners. haiz.. anyway, we all had fun. favourable feedback about the course. enjoyed ourselves a lot. although i injured my foot a little. i think coz my posture(?) wrong/crooked one. then got blister. the food there was extremely dear! the maggie mee with egg is sold for $2, i think. the roller blades provided was given according to ur feet's size.there was a measuring thing. suppose mine was 34.. the roller blade damn heavy sia, i couldn't take with one hand. it'll drop with a 'thump'. the flooring was layed with those kind of mat u see inside toilets. all becoz of the blade. then when i go toilet, the toilet bowl was so low it was like those for baby's usage, higher a bit la. at least we know the basics. i hope can continue learning, but mum n dad don't allow.. sobs.. always like tat. that's why a lot of events happening in sch which got parents' participation 1, i also don bother to tell them. haiz.. stupid.. still say wad i learn liao then teach them in the future..
