3 Lessons I’ve Learned From Trying New Things
Anyways Cardi was great live. The way she is on T.V. is the same exact way she is in person. She is gorgeous and just amazing. Honestly, my favorite part was seeing her twerk with her pregnant belly.
2. Rollerskating for the first time
You know how people look forward to birthday celebrations? Well, I’m the opposite. I don’t like to do birthday celebrations or put too much emphasis on my birthday. But for my 21st birthday, I decided to change it up.
Most people make a huge deal about getting their first legal drink and going out to the bars for their 21st. Since I’m not into drinking I had to come up with something different, something I’ve always wanted to do. My pick? Rollerskating.
I mean what’s better than getting severely bruised a few days after turning 21?
Despite how drained I was after my trips around the rink, rollerskating was one of the best activities I’ve done this year. I had a bunch of my friends come and it was a great experience. It was cool to see those who knew how to rollerskate and those who didn’t (a.k.a me.)
When I took myself out onto the rink, I had no clue what I was doing and I was super scared. I screamed probably a good 75 times. I was soo scared to fall but I only had two big falls, which was surprising. Though I was scared, I’m glad I had the experience and I will cherish it forever. It’s the little things, guys!
3. Learning to play the ukulele
The last time I seriously played an instrument was in the 5th grade. I was part of my 5th grade band and I played the clarinet. Let’s just say I didn’t win any awards for my performance.
Since I quit the clarinet, I’ve retained the desire to play an instrument. I meet people all the time who play various instruments like drums, piano, violin, cello, guitar, etc. I also live in an area at my school where it seems like everyone except me is musically talented. So I finally decided that it’s time for me to learn to play an instrument for real.
