Zombies: I worked three 12-hour night shifts in a row, with the last one being a horrid shift. I was a walking zombie and had not been skating since friday morning. :(
Tests: I passed my Adult 2 test today! Yay! I was a bit nervous at first, but then I felt pretty confident. My instructor said I will progress very quickly through the LTS program. I've already learned nearly half of Adult 3 content.
Mohawks: We had about 5 minutes left after the three of us students were done testing, so our instructor picked something off of the list of upcoming content - Mohawks! I had no idea what these were, but I have read about them on various figure skating sites. She taught us the basics and I LOVE mohawks. It made perfect sense, and I can do them well as long as I am along the barrier (hehe!). I'll practice on getting more confident with it this week. And all 3 students in class are going to be in Adult 3! It starts in two weeks, but of course I'm going to skate lots before then.

Don't Mohawks feel like they should be fun. Unfortunately as soon as I come away from the barrier I just can't do them!
It sounds like you are progressing quickly! Well done on the mohawks - they were my nemesis for EVER, I just could not grok them.
Glad to "meet" another adult with AOSS!

I found that mohawks were easier to do than FI3s and a lot more fun. They just feel so 'nice' (for want of a better word) when you hit one right.
Isn't it amazing how many adults there are out there with AOSS?
Hoorah!
Congratulations on passing your test - I didn't think you would have any problems.
Onwards and upwards!!
Thanks guys! and I most definitely have AOSS! I've nearly memorized all the public skating schedules for the rinks in the valley!!
