you and i both hurt ourselves on ice... D<

what happened to you? did you die today? D:

i went to public skate yesterday just to clear my head and i hit a divot and my skate slide out from under me and i landed pretty hard on my wrist. D=

ouch! >.< skating is painful.

Skating is fun. Falling is painful. But it's also painful to fall while walking, yet people still walk all of the time.

but people don't fall while walking nearly as often as people fall while skating.

people fall in so many different ways. up stairs, down stairs, tripping over books, falling over people.... take your pick.

true, but those are all dependent on surroundings. most people don't randomly lose their balance and fall over multiple times in an hour while walking, but that happens all the time while skating.

No it doesn't. Not if you're good. And babies fall down all of the time. they don't know how to walk so they fall down, you don't know how to skate so you fall down.

yes...but there are also other complications in skating such as divots and toe picks and home teachers who happen to be violent flirts. babies don't have to face these challenges while walking.

Older brothers who push them down, toys in their way, dogs who like to play....

still not quite as common. parents love to create a perfect, safe environment for walking practice.

Mine didn't do that for little brother... hence his nickname bonko.

haha. well, by then they just realized that it's not quite as big a deal I guess? XD

He didn't learn how to walk... he learned how to run. and would run in a direction until he ran into something than he would change direction. he was constantly covered in bruises.

and now he's constantly sickly.
haha, poor kid.
