blades make you crash into the bushes. 11:21 PM

I just got a pair of blades from Jayne. She seldom uses it anymore, plus it was too big for her. I asked for it, so she gave it to me:)

Went to IMM to have dinner with Gabriel and Eve. We almost got to eat Crystal Jade. Eve had a $50 voucher to spare, but the Crystal Jade at IMM was the fine dining outlet. $$$$$$$$$$$$$

So we settled for Streets - 街头茶餐厅。Good food.

So I decided to blade home. Smart choice to save up transport fare huh?? NO. I'm not too good with skates. Had difficulty with control of speed and braking. BAD. Encountered a down-slope. Never mind, I tried to keep myself slow.

Uh oh.

Someone was on the footpath. She was far far away... like 15m?? But I know I'm not going to stop in time to avoid her and ensure both parties' safety. So I turned myself towards something that I can grab... A tree... Beside some tall, tough bushes... Before I can reach the tree, I reached the bushes. Ugh.....

Nothing much happened. Just slight abrasions at the calfs and thigh. I'm safe. And I've decided, I'm not going to travel to school in the morning by blades. I'm so glad that I didn't decide to take Brickland Road home. You should really go and check out the slopes there.

So, bicycle for me, anyone?
