Sometimes I seriously think you know everyone except me.
Wednesday night they're teaching how to balance, fall correctly, how to stop, how to skate in a pack, and turning. You can learn to be athletic, ... Come on, Saya.

Plus unless I was in a really foul temper, I'd be apologizing for bumping into the other girls and that would never do to build up a badass rep, but I'd love to do it, like I'd love to do Pakour.
Keep us posted. You are my rollerderby hero!

I haven't been skating since I was 12-ish.
I'm thinking that most people grow out of that, haha. After you knock someone over a few times and get knocked over a few times yourself verbal polite-ness will probably go out the door.
At least I know even if I'm bad at it I'm still someone's hero.
