One of my favorite things to do is to skate... I have been skating since I was Two years old....... Nothing has gotten in my way from doing it......A place where you can go and live your life away from the rattle, a place where you can keep everything off of your mind, you look through profound areas to find this one place. You search hard until you find out where this special place is. And this special place is at Arizona skate center, skate country north, or skating in general. This is my Walden.

Skating has been my life since I was two years old. Nothing in the massive world could change what I like to do. And I like to skate. I started to skate when I was two years old. And I went through all the throbbing moments in my life, Falling, breaking my arm, and getting a concussion. But falling and all that pain and agony I went through put me where I am now. I started to do 360, or rhythm skate. ( synchronize dancing on skates), and getting better of what I like to do. So each painful day I skated I got better. Months later I heard the skate country north is moving to Ina and Thornydale. In a way I was happy but in a way I was sad. I have been skating at skate country north since I was two and now it is taken away from me. So I had to spend one agonizing year without skating. And believe me it was hard.
Finally that one year came by fast, and they had built the new skating rink called, Arizona Skate Center. Here I met wonderful friends at a place I like to be. Since I like to be there a lot. I would spend the whole weekend there ( yeah I know I don’t have a life) but being there is what kept me out of trouble. It gave me a pleasure to show off in front off this huge crowed. It took everything off of my mind. The only bad part is that I could not get away from my dad because he worked there. And not only that I liked to be there. So I decided to work there. I have worked there for 2 and a half years. That is where I met my best friend Amy Keopectate (Keopke). We would work Friday nights together on the floor. We would always have fun. It was such an amazing two and a half years. Then the most horrible thing happen. Arizona skate center went out of business. This made me said. After all the memories I had with my friends and family. Or where I learned how to skate I just did not take it so well. It was hard to leave my Walden, my happiness, but I had to. It was gone. It disappeared as fast as I drink chocolate milk.

Now the question is… DO I STILL GO SKATING? ….. Of course I still go skating. Skating is the beginning letter of my last name I go skating at the skating rink on the east side. There I made the same amount of friends and I still get to do the thing I love. And that is to skate. O… and if you are still wondering. Yes, I still fall.
