When I was little I only wore pink dresses, with frilly white shoes to match.  This lasted until i was five and i tried on my first pair of roller blades.  My mom tried putting me in soccer cleats, tap shoes, and basketball sneakers, but nothing felt right the way roller blades did... until figure skating came along.  Monday through Saturday I laced up my figure skates to practice.  In 2003 and 2004 my skates took me to Lincoln, Nebraska where i competed at nationals.  Outside of practice, doing flips on my trampoline in my socks was my favorite thing to do.  On May 15th, 2005, I had a freak accident on my trampoline and shattered the orbit of my eye.  nine days later i had 3 plates, 9 screws, 1 fake bone, and double vision.  Because I couldn’t see straight, I couldn’t skate anymore.  My dad bought me a pair of running sneakers and that summer I ran 150 miles.  In middle school I brought my sneakers to school everyday for cross country, and in high school I traded in my sneakers for track spikes.  The summer before my senior year, I worked on the boardwalk at the Jersey shore and wore flip flops everyday.  This summer, I packed up my figure skates, my socks, my sneakers, and my flip flops and headed off to ‘cuse.
