#skating

When I grew up we had gym at school, two or three dance classes after school, ice skating lessons, and all sorts of sports at our finger tips. We weren't glued to computers because they didn't exist, so being active was all we knew. ↗

I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago, and in spite of what most people might have expected from a young girl growing up deaf, life for me was like one long episode of 'The Brady Bunch.' Despite whatever barriers were in my way, I imagined myself as Marcia Brady skating down the street saying 'hi' to everyone, whether they knew me or not. ↗

I sort of always had an inkling towards some kind of an art form. I grew up in a very small town, and I just figure-skated. My dad played hockey and I was surrounded by sports, but it wasn't quite doing it for me. I wasn't totally fulfilled, and I did a lot of skating. ↗

I want to do some skating and then go to law school in three years. I'm enjoying it and I'm going to see where it takes me. ↗

The best indication is that I still love to ski on most anything, from skating gear to heavy metal. ↗

You know what's good? Going on the ice and knowing that you don't have to skate when the whistle blows. All my life I've been the one skating. ↗

Acting is like roller skating. Once you know how to do it, it is neither stimulating nor exciting. ↗

This is something I've always wanted to do- to skate through a part of New York City that thousands of people ride through every week, feeling the energy of one of the original stomping grounds of street skating. ↗
