Oh my god! It's May! I've been so busy with school, thesis, and personal issues that I've been just lost. But I'm back and here's one thing that I learned to do: ride a bike.
Ride a bike, you ask? Doesn't everybody know how to do that? NO. I didn't. Every time I saw someone riding a bike through the city I felt a pang of jealousy and a wish to run up to them and push them over, even children. Thanks to friends and my boyfriend, I acquired a used bike (red!) and learned.
First I bought the bike and my friend Cassandra tried to teach me a few times to no avail. I lost some fear, but balance was always and issue and I would fall over after two seconds on my own. Finally we went to Walmart, bought a child's bike, put training wheels on it, and I finally learned.
After we returned the Walmart bike, I started on mine and, with a lot of help and patience from everyone, finally rode! Here's a few more pictures you can take a look at.
Here's a video of my boyfriend on my bike. I think he had more fun on it than I did!
