Figure skating has revolved around my life more than an annual skate on a Christmas afternoon. The sport doesn't waver much from its image; sparkles, spins and jumps - though I've always seen past the frilly dresses and gut-wrenching falls. Skating was something that I loved and felt grateful to have in my life. When I could no longer afford lessons I wanted to do more than just watch competitions through a TV-screen. Developing an ice skating site kept me inadvertently tied to a passion I thought initially lost. The competitive-season became a time when I eagerly updated my site. Living in San Diego, few people are keen about rinks and ice but through my site, I reached out to people who were. A small idea as a freshman has somehow kept my passion burning. I haven't been on the ice for a while, but in some ways I've never really left it.
