Interesting ice-skating trip..

HELLO PEOPLE!! feel like writing bout today, so be prepared for lotsa words and no pics.. (all with Renu..) But was pretty hilarious, if u can stand reading through my words.. Lol..
  • So today, Renu, Lis, Phoeb and me went to Sunway to ice-skate!! Pretty exciting, considering it was the first time we all going skating together.. and it was Renu's first time.. (I figured there would be good falling-on-ass shows.. hehe..) Actually, lots happened since ystd.. Cuz they all stayed over in my house.. But the funny part is skating la, so we *eeeeeeee* fast forward there.. hehe..

  • Phoeb and I were like trying SOOO hard to do the crossover thingy, and Renu and Lis were trying how to skate properly.. Phoeb and I contemplated asking sum random pro stranger la.. So we were like "hmm, he look damn pro.. ehh, he looks nice.. he seems helpful.." But then, they had to resurface ice, so we went out.. and this guy in orange(one of the pros) walked pass.. So I nudged Phoeb la to ask him.. My idiot fren said "EXCUSE ME".. But when he turned, she turned and looked away.. Then Renu being typical her, said just ask la no big deal.. So she went over to him or sumthing (I'm not too sure I had my back turned, was trying not to laugh.. ) then he walked over.. Noticing the orange from the corner of my eyes, I turned away la.. Lis oso.. Phoeb was oblivious, she had her back facing him.. And while he was RIGHT BEHIND HER, she said "how to ask him laaaaa??" and he proceeded to say "later look for me in the rink" to us..

  • So wen they done resurfacing, we went back on ice.. And Phoeb and I felt damn weird la to go find the guy.. So we din bother.. But while we were with Renu and Lis, he seemed to be comin towards us.. And Phoeb and I damn chicken, we skated off.. But after that, I dunno wat happened.. we ended up talking to the guy la.. And so he ask wat we wanna learn.. Then Phoeb and I said we not even sure if we skating right.. ditto to Renu and Lis.. and this was our conversation..
  1. Lis Renu Phoeb The Guy(Ben) Me

  • U all just skate, let me see then I tell u wat's wrong.. *gestures to the space in front of us*
  • Err, wait what's your name ahh?
  • Ben.. *Phoeb and I stare at each other and gave weird looks*

  • Ben.. B-E-N, Ben..
  • Ohh ok.. * We all stare at each other in silence*
  • So go la, skate..
  • Ehh Phoeb u go first la, u had skating lessons before.. *proceeds to nudge her*
  • Ha why me, I had those lessons when I was 6!!! *shakes my hands off in protest*
  • Haiyo just skate la, just go do wat u will normally do..

And so in order not to further annoy our nice random pro skater, we skate off.. He comments on Phoeb and me, asking us to bend our knees.. And then it was 3 of us going round and round while he taught..

  1. Phoeb Ben Me
  • Ok first thing you must know is bend your knees, back straight..
  • *whispers to me* bend knees and back straight?? Huh??
  • Then remember u're never going in a straight line.. And when skating, NEVER look down.. U need to see where u're going..
  • *whispers to Phoeb* I think i look down a lot..

Then for some reason Phoeb and I tried to hold hands.. and then......

  • DON'T HOLD HANDS!!! when u hold hands, u tend to lean in to the person, and then u're not supporting your own weight properly..
  • *drops hands in shock* ohhhh ok(said in meek voice)...

Then he left Phoeb and me and went to teach Lis and Renu.. And while I was skating round and round with Phoeb, suddenly..

  • *feels someone push my elbow upwards.. looks at Phoeb, realises she experienced the same thing*
  • relax.. skating must relax.. *moves his arms in a "loosen up" movement..

After that he went off to teach Lis and Renu for real.. After a few rounds, Phoeb and I barged in to see their progress..

  1. Lis Renu Phoeb Ben Me
  • Ok so u keep doing this.. *takes up right and left leg alternately*
  • I'm not supposed to move while doing this ah?
  • Ya not supposed to move..* still doing the same movement*
  • K let's try..
  • Huh wat's this wat izzit for?? * no one answers her, least of all the "guru"*
  • *whispers to Phoeb* I think it's so they can like skate without holding each other la.. like the real basic..
  • K then when u can do that, do this.. *stands with his feet in V shape*
  • Ohh lemme try.. *looks down at her feet trying to imitate Ben*
  • *uses his finger to push Lis's forehead up*
  • Ohhh wth????!!!
  • *stares in disbelief at Ben's act*
  • NEVER look down!!
  • Ok ok!!

Then we all just proceeded to skate again.. Nth much edi.. Except that halfway while I skating, suddenly...

  1. Ben Me
  • Bend your knees!
  • *knees immediately bend due to sudden shock.. Realises too late that they were bent too much.. wobbles and almost loses balance..*
  • Not TOO much la..(in that LIKE DUH tone..)

Then when we going off edi, we decided to just say thank you la.. Since he was quite nice.. And I was the victim who had to skate to the centre and say hi while the rest wave from the side.. Luckily Phoeb came after a while.. Funny thing den was I pointed in Lis and Renu's direction to Ben, but he could not see so he just randomly waved.. And they oso could not see him.. So he tot he wave wrong direction.. He turn at wave in like the wrong direction!! Lol.. And that's it for the funny part of the day!!

  • P/s: According to Ben, he's 14.. LIKE WTH!!! damn young.. but he act like WAY more matured den Greg.. Lis thinks Ben is lying bout his age.. But I dunno y, Renu and I seem to get the impressioin dat it is true.. 14 year old tot me how to skate.. embarrassing.. Lol..
