Holidays.
Going to Tuross (the beach) for our annual summer hols.
The day before we go on holiday, there's a Miraculous marathon on telle and the second my sister yelled down the house to tell me, I jumped out of bed and tore down the hallway.
My pinkie toe, however, decided that it didn't want to come with, so it hooked around a corner and bent sideways at least by 90 degrees
As you can see, I can't draw feet but that's what happened
And I kept running
In pain
To watch Miraculous
But I couldn't even concentrate because of the pain
It swelled up like a tiny balloon
And I thought I might have broken it cos i have no idea what a broken toe is like, but it's just a sprain. Still can't walk properly tho. I more... hobble than walk. 😬
There's a lovely picture of a fabulously drawn foot rather than my actual foot which, according to my bestie (thanks, mate) 'looks like a potato' 🥔
There's some nasty bruising going on 😬
So I can't go to the beach because we walk down (it's super close)
Also, MY FREAKING YOU-KNOW-WHAT STARTED THE FIRST DAY!!! Which means I can't go swimming regardless unless I want to get eaten by a shark 😭 🦈
And here's another drawing cos why TF not
I warned you there'd be girly stuff
Fml 😢
And this happens EVERY FLIPPIN YEAR
It's ridiculous!!!
Either my little 'friend' comes, or I injure myself.
Story time
In yr 7, we were going for camp in Bega I think it was and were supposed to be doing surfing and all sorts of water sport.
Well, as we always do, we stopped at a park in Cooma for lunch and my friend got hit in the head by a footy.
She went to the bathroom, asked me to get her bag.
We were supposed to be going soon, so I ran. And the grass was wet.
But not only that!!
As I was running, one of the guys in my class ran out in front of me and we clipped shoulders and I tripped and broke my arm.
You know how you have your hands out while you fall, so you land on your palms? Yeah, well something went wrong and my left hand went under, so I landed full weight on the back of my hand
I'll put in some drawings
^ that's not what happened
^ that's what happened
Gah. My illustrations suck. Here's a photo of what happened
Yeah. That's how I landed.
My full body weight + the force of momentum
And the bone snapped outwards like that
It didn't pierce the skin, but it looked seriously mangled.
What's worse, I heard the bone snap. *shudder*
Straight after the fall tho, I got back up and walked away, provided shocked and not yet feeling the pain. I then sat down, clutched my arm and it all hit me. And it hurt like a bitch.
I'm not sure why, but a teacher moved me to the bus stop to sit there, and EVERYONE GATHERED AROUND ME like wtf piss off it's none of your fcking business
Then this asshole that was still on the bus FILMED ME. He lifted up his phone and took a bloody video of me. And he laughed. Dickhead.
Anyways, when I got to the hospital, the doctor got a nurse who then both had to yank the bone back into place. It felt like breaking it all over again.
I got a bright green cast.
My arm got so damn itchy tho that sometimes I wiggled my arm out of the cast just to scratch myself. Thinking back on it, that was probably the worst idea ever, but it felt good at the time.
My wrist is wonky now 😢
I can't take a photo comparing it to my other wrist cos um I need at least one hand to take a photo, so here's another drawing
The funny looking rectangle inside the other rectangle is supposed to be my thumb btw (it's meant to be a side-on pic)
Dem skillz 😎
Yeah.
✌🏻 we out
