naturally, roller skating is guaranteed to make heads turn. So that is why I started roller skating to learn to handle the social anxiety I've struggled with my whole life. It's been a year since I started roller skating (I'm 25) and I am not NEAR the skill level as others who have skated for a year, because my anxiety kept me from skating for long periods of time. I beat myself over it for a long while, which also kept me from skating. Like, what's the point, I'm never gonna be Skatie or Dee or Dasia or Dirty Debroah Harry. And yet, after constantly picking myself up from the emotional ruts because skating makes me so happy and I want to enjoy it to the fullest, I did my first three turn a month ago. I was ECSTATIC! Since then, I've practiced every weekend, I was hooked on the feeling.

People are gonna look no matter what I do, so why not show them how cool it is to fall and pick oneself up again time after time? I certainly think that's graceful, and through roller skating I learned a little bit about how to rest, collect myself, and pick myself up when I fall into the grips of social anxiety. This hobby has given me so much, and I can't wait to see how it progresses. For instance, I landed my first waltz jump last week and I was goddamn overjoyed.

Excuse the paragraph, and thank you for being such an inspiration to me Dee! You were one of the first skaters I watched on Youtube a year ago, and I love your videos to this day! <3
