Ok..I hated this live journal thing for so long cuz i never had to time to write anything in it..but i have nothing to do right now because i just woke up from a nap and so i thought i would give it a try...
My life is totally different now...instead of going to school for a couple of hours and then driving all the way to the cape to skate my life away...(everyday) it has all of a sudden stopped...i am in school all day now and after school i work a couple of times a week. I mean i didnt stop skating TOTALLY! I mean even if i quit skating would ALWAYS be apart of my life in some way or another. Seriously..i am known as "the skater" in school..i just cant escape it! Seriously..i do skate 2-3 times a week in pawtucket now. its just sad sometimes because i think about how my life was a couple of months ago (skating...skating..SKATING) and now..its NOT.. I had a meeting with my mom and my sponsor..he totally adores me but we all think its best for me to concentrate on school for the rest of my high school career..especially because i am totally looking forward to COLLEGE! He still wants skating to be apart of my life..but for now..i suppose i am "retiring" from competing..I guess i am supposed to be "exploring" different sports for fun (like i want to do tennis in the spring) I am involved in drama so i am gonna be doing the spring production. (yay)!!
SO..i know it doesnt seem like a big deal but it is to me..skating has always controlled everything about my life...and even somewhat my family..but now i guess i have to be happy to FINALLY be able to be a "normal" teenager and not have to worry about the pressures of competing. Its good..but also kinda sad at the same time. (its good to actually write these things down!)
