Tales of Life-Desu. ^_^

The anniversary of my injury is almost upon us, I’m kind of excited for it and I would love to just hold a little party for it. But, I won’t. That’s just weird.

I’ve just come back from a little skate session outside of my house, it feels great to be back on the board, and to be able to throw down slides. I gotta keep improving, I gotta keep pushing myself, I need to increase the speed that I can handle. Now that I can slide both heel and toeside, I can start improving other elements of my ride, improve my technique and yeah. Soon I’ll be able to throw down standup slides. 

Gotta keep skating, gotta keep pushing, far out. It feels so good.

Fairly frustrated at people who impede my movement. I’ve had people who can see the path I’m about to take, but force me to recalculate and take unnecessary risks in order to bypass them.

On the way home there was a guy who literally stopped in front of me. Forcing me to brake and almost crash into him.

The last hill before my house a car pulled out and almost hit me, I had to fit in a gap of about a metre.  

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’m sure that there are better things to do than harass skaters. Far out, I use it to get to uni, there’s no need to harass me. Just go about your day and respect me on the roads. I don’t endanger motorists intentionally. I give enough warning and I indicate what direction I want to go to.

I’m kind of waiting for when cops are going to be called on me in the area. I doubt it.

So, I’ve received some of my assessments back and completed some presentations. According to my schedule for uni, I don’t have any more assessments for the next three weeks. I’m healing faster from that earlier aggravated tendon two weeks ago and I’m skating again.

I have a fun run of 10km in about two weeks and I have yet to ready myself seeing as I can only do 6km at full limits. But it’s okay if I end up walking some of that course, I’d rather have my body in a moderate condition rather than break it again. I’m listening to it better and it feels good, stretch when you need to, rest when you have to, run when you have a good solid feeling. I need to take care of myself because seriously, running is causing tons more damage than skating is at the moment.

I pick up scuffs, scratches and grazes but that’s fine. I’m going down to the Sydney City Bombsquad soon enough. Last time I went I was fairly inexperienced, but with skating so often and so hard I think I should survive. I just need to make sure I stay composed, the route is something I’m moderately familiar with. But I’ll learn from my fellow skater, I’m excited for the next couple of weeks. I’ll take a break now and then get back to studying.

Things are going fairly well, that and there’s a girl I’ve set my sights on. Vivid is coming up. You do the math. I’m excited for the rest of May. c:
