A Reason to Smile: Opportunities

Last night was a really significant night for me.  I started to really learn to roller skate in January 2010, I tried out for the Denver Roller Dolls 4 times and finally made the league in January 2011, and last night, I finally tested to a point where I can scrimmage and join a team within the league.  I'm so happy I was given the chance to take the test.  Life is pretty good to me.

So in honor of last night, I present my (perhaps arguably) favorite shoes and accessory that I own- my skates and helmet!

Helmet: Triple 8
Paint on helmet: Sharpie Paint Pens!
So that's where my blog title comes from, my derby name is TexMex Takeout.

Skate: Riedell
Wheels: Radar Devil Rays (black), and Radar ...somethings (pink) 

Toestops: Gumball
Shoelaces: the stars are from Hot Topic, many many  years ago.
 I love these skates so much!  I'll probably change my wheels soon, but they have treated me very well.
