A Sad Friday For My Kid

We've been at the rink almost everyday for the past 2-3 weeks. Getting ready for the qualifying exam so my kid will be able to join the Grand Pix Competition next month. Yesterday, February 8 was his schedule for that. To make the story short, my kiddo wasn't able to pass the test. His combination jumps didn't make it and weren't done properly (sablay baga!). I'm kind of sad too for him.... but that's that! There's always a next time. At least now, it's a lesson for my kid that he has to take seriously whatever his coach tells him. Always practice and not play at the rink.

That's not the sad part, failing the exam. The sad part is he doesn't like to skate anymore, even go to the rink. Maybe, he needs time to accept and process what happened. I'll just let him be.... hopefully everything will go back to normal. As of now, he just likes to play with his PSP.

SM- Summer Skate Manila 2007


Last week, May 15-18, my son joined the "SUMMER SKATE MANILA 2007" held in SM-Mall of Asia. Out of 6 events he joined, he got 5 gold and 1 bronze medals.

GOLD
- Delta; Solo Program (Technical)
- Solo Spotlight (Light Entertainment)
- Couple Spotlight (Light Entertainment)
- Stroking
- Surprise

BRONZE
- Speedracing




My son's skating club (ELITE BLADES SKATING CLUB) & home rink (SM-SOUTHMALL ICE RINK) got the "Over-all Team Champion" for garnering the highest points and having the highest numbers of members joining the said competition.

Now, my little one is busy and having a great time with his swimming lessons everyday. But still, 2-3 times a week, he's still at the rink polishing his skating. He's getting ready for the upcoming international competition, "SKATE ASIA 2007" in August. It will be held here in the Philippines at SM- Mall of Asia. Our first time to host an international ice skating competition.
