I went skating on new year's day this year. It had been 9 years since I was last on the ice, but somehow I could still skate fine. sadly i don't own a pair of my own skates.

It's not the skating part that's hard, it's the endurance. =[ Tough on your friggin legs!

I'm 6'6" so one stride takes me a ridiculous distance. Endurance is for short people!

Yep, I remember how short you are from the MI social, hence the poking fun at short people. You might remember me. I won the garbage can.

I did NOT drink that much that night. I had like 3 beers! >_<

Edit: Although the swearing sounds pretty accurate.

EDIT 2: OH WAIT WERE YOU THE GUY THAT HELD UP THE SIGN LOL

Omg, I remember you completely. The picture helped.
To be fair though, I didn't know you were this account. ;D

I suppose that's fair enough as I did just switch my avatar and signature to my awesome drill tank combo.

Canadian (as in 1/2 my family is from out East, for like a hundred years back) ..
Hockey-crazy dad...
Rep hockey playing sister...

Yeah, I skated when I was really young, I don't even remember a lot of the pictures. But I haven't skated since I was a little kid. But I'm pretty sure I wouldn't fall on my face.

I can't believe most of your friends don't skate (unless they're recent immigrants?). We had skating trips in elementary school.
