Cape Girardeau Roller Girls

Yo, Adrian!

You’re gonna fly now…

Yo, Adrian! #2

Hometown: Champaign, Illinois and Jackson, Missouri (50-50)
Birth date: None-ya (unless you would like to send me a gift, in which case, August 29th)
Height/Weight: Fluctuates based on my mood and shoes…

Derby DOB: Fresh Meat class of February, 2011
Awards: Surely…
Position: Any
Skate/Wheel/Socks: RW Outlaws, Shadows, Argyle
Practice regimen: As often as possible
Signature Move: Busted out an ‘Alternate Jammer’ move while still ‘Fresh’. Might be the fastest skating to date. Too bad it didn’t count due to there being no such thing as an ‘Alternate Jammer’.
Derby Wife: Juke Shywalker (the Force is with me!)
Derby Heroes: My entire CGRG team though I aspire each time to ‘Kill’ it while ‘Skayton’ in order to ‘Bury’ the ‘Soxxx’ off of our competition in a ‘Pancake Puppy Sundae’ kind of way…
Favorite moments: Include trash can dodging, scrimmaging, and dodgeball ‘Amurica’ style with L. Kill…
Song to skate to: Any song from the ‘Rocky’ Soundtrack including but not limited to, ‘Burning Heart’, ‘The Eye of the Tiger’, and ‘Gonna Fly Now’ (Theme Song)…
Why Derby?: I am the girl who refused to wear white socks to gym class and as a result, was made to sit in the hallway instead of playing with all the other white sock wearing kids in Jr. High School (a few years back, lol). My refusal to conform and accept the ‘status quo’ stuck with me and I finally found a sport that embraces both the game, AND individuality. Pretty awesome.
Why this name and number?: I am a huge fan of Sylvester Stallone and all of the ‘Rocky’ movies, though Adrian was the fire behind Rocky’s passion and drive in my own personal opinion…:)

Likes: Pretty much anything and everything.
Dislikes: As opposed to ‘dislike’ I am going to say that people who ‘throw stones’ make me sad for both the ‘thrower’ and the ‘target’. Nothing good comes from ‘stone throwing’ (see John 8:1 –11). Throwing stones drives people away from love, which is what it’s all about! Can I get an Amen?!
Non-Derby Hobbies: Reading, and ummmm…Derby related shopping.
Bad Habits: Yes.
Drink of choice: Depends on where I am and who I’m with…lol. I do love me some fine wine…
Turn ons: Open minded, intelligent, kind, loving people, (and bad-asses).
Turn offs: Judgmental hypocrites who chose to be unkind to others and use religion and/or anything else they can to bring others down instead of lifting them up. Icky.
Favorite quote:
“In the warriors code
There’s no surrender
Though his body says stop
His spirit cries – never!” –Survivor ‘Burning Heart’
