I skated 25 laps in 4 minutes 28 seconds! ROCK ON!

WOOO! I passed Wasatch's League Skills Assessments test! So that means I am cleared to play in the bout on saturday! excited? YES! The only thing that might stop me is the USARS insurance. Which mine is already sent in so maybe we can get day passes and whatnot. Either way I should be finding out tomorrow and the chances are like 80 percent. Im excited sooo excited. At practice tonight in SLC we got to work on hits and taking hits and we were hitting each other hard too. They said the scrimmages will be like 1 girl who is really good, and then 3 beginners and a good jammer. Kind of for training and such, so us Noobs will get to play with other noobs and hopefully not die! lmao! Saturday I also have the Unique Carwash, so Ill be there in the morning then to the bout in the afternoon. Busy day saturday! Il keep you updated!

Skills assessments.

So tomorrow im carpooling with some other girls up to the derby depot in SLC for a practice with Fraux Meow and we are going to be passing off minimum skills assessments tests. Not our actual skills test, juss one that will clear us to play in the picnic scrimmage with all kinds of other people girls and boys! It will be 2 girls only scrimmages of a half hour long, and then 2 co ed scrimmages of a half hour long each. So Lets hope I pass and lets hope I dont get my ass whooped bahahahaha!

Working on the Derby House!

We got a TON done today, I organized the contact list, updated it and sent of 25 names to be approved for our league. Then I went and helped clean the derby house again, I sweeped and moved pallets, emptied concrete chunks into drainage holes, cleared out a shopping cart and then Skates brought us Pizza! It was way fun, I didnt take any pix tonight although I brought my camera. I was juss busy and didnt even think about it. Idk when we'll be done with our building but I do know that when we are we are jumping straight into skills assessments an rules tests! So ive been studying up on my rules like a mofo!  Im gonna pass mine lol! Juss an update, ttyl! <3<3

Derby Recruitment

Sooo, I actually dont really know how I even became on the recruitment team at all, I didnt sign up when they started so I think it was when Ann had me start recruiting online and got me more into it. Either way I was asked recently to take over position as head of recruiting!! Awesome. So tonight I sat down and figured a lot of stuff out. Im planning a meeting before practice monday with the recruitment team and things are gonna change! We already recruited 3 girls and I need to find a place for them to practice, maybe they can practice in the derby house, who knows? So im gonna figure that out, along with new recruitment times, saturday recruitment's, recruiting in places other than classic, ect. I also have a question list that im gonna talk to the team about and see what they think, as well as a tryout list for the fresh meat. So after monday ill update with the new plan! I also have on my plate team name registry, joy hahaha. I haven't the first idea where to start there. So I wrote a question list and you gotta start somewhere. Answer my questions then ill begin the process! More updates later. Juss wanted to let eeryone know about my new status and this is going to go far! You'll see! :)(: <3<3

Photo Of The Day!

Photo Of The Day, 6-23-2011:

This photo is one of my all time favorites from this shoot. I really enjoy the darker style of shooting and editing because I dont do them alot so when I do its like something new. We shot in Lehi by this old abandoned warehouse and railroad tracks. I got my jacket at spencers and my jeans at Buckle they are silvers. Enjoy the pic!

ZUCA!

So my husband got me a Zuca for all my roller derby gear, and it is the coolest little bag ive ever seen! I freakin love it bad. it fits my skates, helmet, gear, water bottle, lysol spray, bandannas, tools, gum, and whatever else I want to put in it! You can even sit on top of it to put your gear on, its seriously the coolest thing of my life! Heres some pix!

More cleaning of the Derby Home!

After practice some of us stayed ad helped clean the derby home. It has alot of work before it will be done, but we have already come so far! So much being accomplished! Our goals today were to wipe all the walls down in the upstairs and downstairs offices, then wash the windows upstairs, then sweep and mop the upstairs office floors and the downstairs office floors, Then fill in the remaining 3 holes with concrete and get as much of the floor industrial cleaned as possible. Which by the time i leaf at midnight we had reached our goals! Theres still more to do, and tons more floor to be cleaned. But it will be worth it in the end! Im so excited to start practicing there! I handed in my membership application today, along with my USARS for insurance. Once those get sent in and i get my USARS card I will be able to skate in the building! So lets hope we can get it all finished this week! We are planning on laying the track Sunday! I couldnt be more happy to see this all pulling together and working so well! We are doing great as a league! I was approached today by Amity also, and she is the head of recruiting, she asked me to take her place as head, and I was reluctant at first only because I already have a lot on my plate but I can do it, I know I can. So I agreed. Once it gets cleared through Raggs then ill be new head of recruiting and able to go to board meetings and such. That will be cool too! K heres some pix!

Outdoor Derby Practice!

So our building isnt all the way cleaned yet, which means we got o practice outdoors today! It was way fun and I only got pix of the warm ups and the figure 8's. But we skated all the way up spanish fork trail that lines the highway 6 road, and then weaved back down. It was way fun! Heres some pix!
