We had bfast at JP. Then grocery shopping for drinks and snacks for the party.
You can tell that Lil Shauna is enjoying the attention, right?
Daddy Lim was with us at the rink. However, instead of skating, he found himself a nice corner and was looking very comfortable while Lil Shauna practised her usual moves.
Lil Shauna was quite on form and when she did raise that leg higher than usual, she looked great. Still, I went like a broken recorder, "arms up, head up, big movement, hold it there". Before she went for the class, I reminded her to raise her arms, heads and don't be shy. To that she replied that she would try for the arms and head but cannot not be shy. Win already.
When class started, she didn't seem to remember all that I had been telling her. Zzzzz. She didn't learn new moves but practised what were taught 2 weeks back in attempt to master them. By the end of the class, she was so tired that she didn't even have the energy to put the guards back on her skates. Teacher Raymond commented that she is making improvements but needed plenty of reminders. Oh ya, tell me about it.
We have classes on alternate week this month to help save my pocket a little. We should be back next week to practice. Hard work indeed. Daddy Lim saw Lil Shauna at class and commented that our girl wasn't hard working enough. He even asked me not to put too high hopes on her. Pui! But ice skating is really hard work. I saw this little girl (probably 5 or 6) who could already do jumps practising really hard and her mum sternly told her to practise a few more times before they left the ice. Then another girl was doing the same drill over and over again on her own. She fell and got up many times. There are quite some really good young figure skaters and these are also the ones whom I always see every week and very are disciplined. I wonder if our Lil Shauna would get there one day.
