So how was your day?

[Gentian]

I'd arranged to go ice skating with a couple of nice ladies on Sunday yesterday, but there was a problem. I hadn't the slightest idea how to skate on ice! Because of that, I decided to go for about five hours on Saturday so that I'd at least get the fundamentals down before making an utter fool of myself and ooooh boy, I sure fell a lot. My younger brother's really freakin' good at skating since he plays ice hockey, so he really helped me get the hang of it.

So Sunday came, and it was really nice. I could actually move around, so that was pretty fun! The three of us ran into my brother there that day, and he ended up giving some pointers to my friends, haha! Afterwards, we said goodbye to my brother and went back to their place, and we watched an anime about ice skating for the rest of the evening, cooked some food and called it a night.

Holy shoot, public transport is a nightmare. They're removing all the crossings on my line, meaning they're elevating all train tracks above the road, so I had to catch a bus replacement partway. The journey back took forever, but I was happy to eventually get back home, way after midnight. A shower felt really good after bruising myself so much from falling on Saturday.

Sorry I haven't been posting much! University and real life in general have been taking up most of my free time lately. Hope you're all doing well.

That sounds like a real adventure! Do you think Tavi can skate?
