Eunice's first skating class

Eunice had her first skating class on Sunday. Before the class, she was so hesitate to go. She told me that she did not want to skate. She asked so many questions such as "It looked hard", "What happened I fall down", "Am I the only one who doesn't know how to skate" etc.... By the way, she is just in Level 1 (beginner). Andrew tried to comfort her and let her to listen to the Men hockey game on MP3 (final game).

It is the time to go in the ice. She fell and fell and walked and walked and crawled and walked and crawled and fell. Every time she fell and then she looked up to the audience side to search for Andrew and me and then she was up again and walked again. She did not want Andrew and me to look at her. I just pretended to look around. Then she fell down again. She looked up again and crawled. After a few time, she had the technique to walk again.

For the first class, she was doing OK la. In order to encourage her to do better next time, we have a special dinner (Japanese) - Eunice & Isaac's favourite... The reason is not only because she wants to go to the skate class but also she does not give up on the ice.

At the end of the skate class, she was sweating. While she was changing the skater, she said that she had lot of fun and she was excited to go again next week. Way to go Eunice!
