today is my 1 year derby-versary.

365 days ago, I strapped on my pads and skates for the very first time and hit the rink (several times, in fact... with my ass).

365 days ago, at the end of practice, I wanted to quit. No one had talked to me and I wasn't a good skater.

365 days later, I've been elected president, I've done public relations, I've been interviewed, I've been injured (mostly off skates, but that's a whole other story), I've seen bouts, I've done a bout and I've met some amazing people (I've met some total weirdos, too, but that's a whole other story) I'm also hyper-emotional at the thought of leaving these people behind... not that I've mentioned that non-stop or anything...
