    eh, mighty presumptuous of you, who weren’t even there. How would you know?

    I sat there after being left to struggle on my skates by the people I went with, falling a dozen times, alone - and that was actually the best part, in that moment I did have fun, and it was random strangers who encouraged me and had a laugh with me.

    But in a huge room with so many people all moving in different directions, lights flashing in the dark, loud music, it was very overwhelming and disorienting. I had trouble recognizing people, and I sat there because all our stuff was there, and I knew they would come back eventually.

    It just wouldve been nice to have someone take my hand and help me onto the rink. I asked for that, and they knew I couldn’t skate, but it was more important for them to get practice and show off.
