...but then i remembered when i took the training wheels, way back when. i was riding perfectly... then right into a freakin' mailbox. don't quite remember, but i think it hit me clear off of my bike. 
...yeah, so hopefully that won't happen to maki jr. |

I was the kid that never wanted training wheels, so I'd always try to ride "big kid" bikes and always crash. Got it down after a couple of months.
Says a lot about my character now. I hate taking a new song slowly so that I can perfect it. Hmm..... |
