I went skiing for the first time today, and I fell. Not once, not twice, but uncountable times over.. I fell 何回も! At first I could not even stand after falling, I had to remove the skis. After several more falls, I could finally stand without assistance and without removing the skis! Now that I could stand unassisted, I started moving forward slowly, falling after each attempt and getting up. But finally I learned to stop and to gain balance. The first time I completed a (gentle) slope without falling, I realized I was not looking down but ahead. Then I realized oh, did I just finish an entire slope without falling and the self consciousness made me fall down at the end. Then I finally got up and finally skied without (conscious) thinking and I started to enjoy the experience. Not to say I am good at skiing yet, it will take many more times of practice and even towards the evening I still fell down, but I know now that I can do it. I remember there was a kid there who was also crying (tears of frustration) because he couldnt seem to move forward and I wanted to join him, but he kept at it and I am sure he went home as happy and tired as I did. Cant wait for the next time. I kept repeating to myself, 頑張りす。Dont give up. Dont look down. You can get up.
