Roller skating is a fun and smooth sport that has been around for years. It is a sport as well as a recreation. The first person to ever to use roller skates was in London, 1743. Ever since then, roller skating has evolved and has been made into an international sport. There are many types of roller skating, it includes artistic roller skating, figures, dance, freestyle, and more. Artistic roller skating includes championships like the Olympics, the 2008 Olympics held in China. Figure skaters skate around in circle to show accuracy and control, they wear pretty leotards; figure skating also goes with ice skating too. Dance skating was very popular in the 1970’s, if you roller skated good you would probably be the grooviest kid in town. Dance skating dancers would dance with choreography and music, and are judged based on their skill and style. They must pay close attention to the timing and whether they mess up or not. Freestyle is an individual event. There is also a game called “Roller Hockey”, where you play hockey not on ice with ice skates, but with roller skates. Free skating is more urban and many people do it today. People just roller skate around town, just to have fun and enjoy a smooth ride down the road. Roller skating has become a big sport and people there are many international competitions and shows. Roller skating is fun and healthy, everyone around the world loves it!

Who watched the Super Bowl last night? I did! It was very exciting and it was a good game. This was the first time ever that the Saints had ever made an appearance at the Super Bowl. And it was even more exciting that they beat the Colts! Go Saints! My favorite part about watching the Super Bowl is all my friends and family together. I went to my neighbor’s house to watch the game; we had all kinds of foods and desserts to enjoy the game. I think I had at least 20 different foods! I had cake, pizza, fruit, queso, chips, cookies, brownies, and so much more. I played football in the backyard. It was boys against girls, and of course, the girls won. The girls were playing really well. The boys were getting a little frustrated! My neighbor has the best TV in the world. He has a 65”. It was amazing to watch the game on. It was like you were in a movie theater. My friends lives in New Orleans, and he said that it was insane on Bourbon Street. He said that it was so loud because everyone was screaming over the victory. He also said that people were getting on people’s shoulders and throwing themselves into the crowd! Well, football season is over, and we will have to wait until next year. I can not wait for next year; can not wait to see what kind of crazy surprises it brings us in football. Go Saints!
