Back when is five years old I can not remember the time when I was trying to teach my self how to skate. It was the worse thing ever I just keep falling I can still feel the cold concrete as I fell on it more than ounces. I could never bring my self to even think about how long it would take me to even master skating. All I ever wanted to was to learn how to skate until my mother told me to try and try again. Because in life if you don’t fail at something you cant succeed.

whenever I think about skating it takes me back to the the time when my family attending a birthday party for my bother. we all had to know to skate I was not very happy about it because I knew that I did not know how to do it. So at the birthday celebration I had to sit down because I did not want to skate I did not want to get hurt. when My birthday came up I told my mother that I want to a pair of roller skates. She was surprised, she did not like the idea of me roller skating.

I begged her to buy them for me for weeks before my birthday. Until one day she went out and bought them for me I was so excited. and I knew that I had to learn my own because my sister and brother was to busy skating on there own. So morning they woke me up and they took me out side with them. I had never skated with my brother and sister they very skilled aet skating. I did know if I could keep up with them on the black top. I had a feeling that they had something going on in there minds some type diabolical plan.

Started me off slow they said that it was just like gliding I did not even know what that meant I thought that I was going to get it with the first try. But I was wrong did I was not easy at all I was not what I had expected they grabbed and pulled me slow I was very uncertain about abut this tactic or cooked up or half thought techniques. fell hard on the ground scraping my fingers and hands on the ground like piece of chalk on the ground.

I woke up the next morning ready I was determined to learn how to skate. all I was that I wanted to learn I can hear my moms voice ringing in my ear whispering words of encouragement. I did not wan to disappoint her. I wanted to make her proud of me and let her know that buying the skates was not a bad idea. I was motivated I wanted to prove to myself that I could do it. I wanted to show my brother and sister that no matter how many times I’m still going to get up. I had stayed outside all day long and came back into the house at 10:00 o’clock at night blood sweat and tears my knees was bloody and so was my fingers but I came in the house skating.
