Getting some bumps and bruises at the skating rink

TODAY I am going to the ice skating rink at Jcube. I am so excited that I have butterflies in my stomach. I even woke up really early to get ready.

At 9:45am, I made my way to the nearest coffee shop for my breakfast. At 10:30am, I put on my skates and went onto the ice. It was slippery. I held on to the sides of the bars of the rink. I accidentally pushed myself away from the bars. There was no one around so I had to skate my way back.

So, I lifted one leg and the other slowly. I was surprised that I could balance on the slippery ice. I went faster and faster and soon I reached the bars. But I fell again, first landing on my leg and then my elbow. I stood up and lifted my pants up and saw a very big bruise on my knee. It hurt, but I kept skating. Soon I became an independent skater.
