ICE SKATING!!!

we were just at work late today..it was nearing 7..and then we were gonna go home and go out with aunt suvy to buy cream cheese to make a cheese cake, when wayne (whom i thought had already gone home) came up the stairs and he was on the phone with nathan..came and asked us if we'd wanted to go ice skating that night!! and i was like YESSSSSS haha cos it's like cool and i'd hadn't ice skated for so long.

when we got there, the people on the ice skating rink were all playing this game. it's like a game of tag.u have to get from one end of the ring to the other ring, without the people (staff working there) tagging you. and once u're tagged, u have to get out of the rink. so it goes till the end when like only a few people are left haha.

well zj being frm harbin of cos knows how to ice skate, and i dun really know cos i've only been ice skating like twice, nathan's been about twice too and he doesn't know how to stop..and wayne's never been on the ice skating rink b4. (edit: i found out eventually that i heard wrongly and he's actually been ice skating once before this one) and i'm like okay maybe i wun look too bad today haha. but the moment wayne went on he started just going off to the other side and i'm like *jaw drop* didn't he say that he hasn't ice skated before?! well turn out he's been snow ski-ing and knows how to roller skate too so that prolly helped him alot. nathan was funny because he'd go out in a speed burst and like a VERY SHORT while later he'd have to grab on to the railing cause he couldn't stop. i was a little shaky at first.. but still not too bad i could actually get around the whole rink stopping a few times. haha. there were actually SO MANY teenagers there (and very reckless fast ones too) that it was really rather scary to ice skate there when u're jst a beginner. i was really worried someone was gonna come crashing into me and i'd be ggxx.

and then i held zj's hand and we ice skated for a while and then wayne came along and grabbed my hand on the other side and we went round rather fast for one round the first round i was really scared and i was like holding on to both of them like n a death grip wayne said he didn't know whether his hands were numb from the cold or from my grip..and then a while later he grabbed nathan and we became a 4-person human line going round and round the skating rink really fast and nathan stumbling like every 10-15 seconds lol. but it was fun cause because i was holding on to the 2 of them who were like better ice skaters.. we actually went quite fast and i got quite confident. i think we were like being a obstruction because a 4 people human line is really rather blocking but who careeesssss lol. and we joked that nathan was being the epicentre cos he'd keep losing his balance and then 'tremors' would come down my side because like zj would be pulling me ahead and wayne's side would be slowing down and i'd stumble too haha. eventually nathan fell! and for the record he was the only one out of us 4 that fell that night :P

the night went all too fast and soon the rink closed. i wished i had more time there though. we went to maccas and had soft serve cones and sat there talking for a bit and getting ice cream on each other's faces..and then they made a human sandwich out of me because wayne and nathan were sitting on either side of me and when i'd realized i was like OH NO.... haha.well it was a good end to the tough and perhaps a little sad week.

AND I GOT CHOSEN FOR U21!! :) i'm going to china! whee it's a cool thought, going around the world in a year. usa last july, australia this jan to april, europe in june, and china in july, and in between in singapore! haha. i covered nearly all the continents i just need to go to africa and antarctica now. lol
