I'm a Big Girl Now!!


I finally graduated out of the Fast Track program with Sacred! I'm no longer a sophomore skater, I'm in the league! In the pool to be drafted! I've finally earned the right to choose a derby name!
There was a bit of confusion about when the girls who were testing to move up would find out, but I did it! WE did it! All four of the girls that tested moved up into the league!!
Just over a full year of hard work and effort from about a dozen coaches and my own will to succeed!

For the nay-sayers who said they didn't want me to play, or thought that I would give up because I wasn't tough enough I say this, "HA! IN YOUR FACE! Please come to my first bout when I know when it is!!"

Found a Home


Found a place to live AND a new store to transfer to! I'm moving back to the bay, as I always had planned on doing, and now I don't want to go.
Funny how life changes you that way. I think in saying it all the time, I didn't realize how much fun I was having where I was. It's definitely a bittersweet notion for me right now.
There are a lot of things that I would rather not leave behind in Sacramento.. Mostly people, but that's the nice thing about being only 80 odd miles away, visiting isn't completely unheard of. I move at the end of October because my manager can't lose me until then.
