Blading

My three fingers on my left hand are screaming, "We're in pain, Anna. If you have common sense, don't ever pick up a guitar again!' Well, I tried playing the guitar today, it's not my first time, but my, it sure was hard. It was an accoustic guitar so the strings really bit into my flesh. But I'm still determined to learn some more. Then again, I always say such things.

I took an hour off in the morning to practise rollerblading at a void deck of the next HDB block. Gabriel doesn't think I'm up to task for travelling to East Coast Park on my blades. Yeah, we have a park connector, probably 3.5-4km long, linking our house to ECP. Gab was teaching me how to do those swift, smooth turns. For quite a while, I totally wasn't getting anything. I was awkward as a crow!

Gab: Left foot front, right foot behind and just stick your legs together!
Me: Well, I am trying!
...
Gab: Don't use the blade's brakes. Do T-braking, it's more cool.

Finally, I did get a little of my left turn right. Not perfect but getting there! I tried practising for right turn... Nah, didn't work out. I shall try it out some other day.

I'm considering picking up a new language, Korean to be exact, at a language school. But I'm rather busy tutoring and school will start in a month's time. It's quite a regret.
