This morning, I had to drag myself out of bed for skating lessons. It was just that hard. It was so dark in my room, and I could hear the rain pelting down on my window, and I just didn't feel like moving from my warm little fort. Eventually, I inched toward the edge of the bed, and just climbed off. After changing into my skating costume, it just suddenly became real to me. I guess I became more excited then, and so I ran to get ready to leave. I had breakfast in the car, a energy bar, which might seem little, but it actually helps in the morning, when I don't feel like eating anything else, and can't eat anything big before skating. I tied my skates there, while my mom went off to swim at the pool, which was right next to the rink. Both were inside, since it was at the Killarney center. My cousin and I got there right on time, and we met up with Lianna, our coach. We did our normal warm up exercises, and then instead of doing salems, like we did last time, we worked on our edges, which I'm also bad at. She taught us where to place our hands, and then how to use our free leg to guide. After the half hour lesson, she left us to work on our skills for the next half hour. I actually can do my edges perfectly now, I just have to work on the backward ones. We also practiced our Spirals, and Lounges, both of which are super fun!
After skating, I had time to finish my homework, have breakfast/lunch, and then head to piano. Since my piano teacher owns a dog, I always take time off to play with it. This time, he was so happy with all the attention, he rolled right over, and let us rub his belly. It was so funny, since he looked so relaxed!
Sigh, I love Sundays. I wish they would never end, Mondays always seem like torture.
