Complaint.

So it is 5:57 in the morning and I have just woken up from excruciating pain. Let's take it from the top.

Yesterday for Family Home Evening we went to the Manwaring Center also known as the MC (building with the bookstore, where dances are held, food court.. etc...) to go Roller Skating. Dun dun dun. This could only end badly. So, I love Roller Blading, but this is skating, completely different. Or so I thought. Yes, it was different, but I got the hang of it. However, my fhe sisters took a littler longer to get adjusted I was holding their hands. About the 20th time we went around, I let go of them, but they weren't ready so they struggled with me, then let me go, and as I got about 5 feet away my balance was thrown and I went down. Landed straight on my knee. It was absolutely hilarious that I fell. But it hurt, so I was laughing at first while all of our FHE group tried to help me up, but I lay limp on the floor because I just didn't want up yet. Then I sit up and move over to the stage that is next to me. (it was weird, I was skating where I used to have Church before switching wards) So, sitting there I couldn't move my leg. When I did, a pain was shot up into my leg and I started to scream. Instantly tears would flow down my face and I was embarrassed because I don't ever get hurt. And if I do, I don't complain about it. The only reason I cry about it is because I am embarrassed, and this time... it was pain. It took me 5 minutes to even try to stand up, which was fine, because putting it straight wasn't a problem. The problem was bending it. Roller Skating after, was fine. I didn't even feel anything wrong with my knee. But come time to take the skates off... the pain was back. The bending of my knee, and reaching over, and everything I screamed again. Little tears formed in my eyes, but I couldn't let myself cry again. It went away and I returned the skates and put my shoes on (which was also a hassle). Of course, we were upstairs and I was not about to try and go downstairs. So I took the elevator. So, I am able to walk fine, but with the tiniest limp. We get back to my FHE sister's dorm and I sit down and the pain shot up my knee again. I let out a scream and that was it. But then when I got up to switch couches, my leg didn't lift as high as it should have and it got caught on a boot on the floor and put WAYYYY too much pressure on my knee and that was just about the worst pain I've had. I stood there, screaming that I couldn't move my leg, and that it was killing me. Nobody knew what to do, so I continued to scream. Then it slowly went away and I was able to straighten it again. Then I sat down. So, bad night. THEN I have to get onto my bunk bed. WOW that's gonna suck. Suprisingly, I did it with no pain. But sleeping last night, or falling asleep was impossible. I managed to sleep though. But then at 5:30 in the morning, I wake up screaming with multiple tears running down my face that my leg is hurting, (luckily or hopefully I didn't wake Ariel) and the pain is making my leg curl up, which just makes it hurt more! I am so worried right now. Laying in bed in the wee hours of the morning. I can't miss class. and the medical center doesn't open until 8:00. My first class is at 7:45. Plus I have to make an appointment. Oh and not to mention, EVERY ONE OF MY CLASSES IS UPSTAIRS TODAY! Whyyy?! This is a great way to top of my bad weekend. Hurt knee. Damaged knee. I don't even know yet. But I just thought I should write in my blog about it considering I am not going to be able to go back to sleep. Luckily I was able to reach my computer from my bed, because I am too scared to even more my what feels to be dead leg right now to get off my bed. I have this feeling that it's going to kill me on the way down. I will fall off my dresser while trying to get off my bed. This is so not good. :( I hope it's not a bad diagnostic when or if I go to the doctors.

Long time no write.

So, right now my life isn't very interesting. I'm getting too much sleep on some days, and not enough on the others. I should probably fix that. So, I believe it was Monday night.. it snowed! It was beautiful! Maybe it wasn't Monday, probably Tuesday or Wednesday. I might as well say Thurs-Sunday too huh? haha. Just kidding, but it snowed!

Picture of my FHE sister's dorm from my dorm.

I was really excited! Except for the fact that I felt like completely alone looking out into the beautiful snow. I was surrounded by my friends, but there was something missing inside. Lame. What a girl thing to say. So, election night, my FHE sister's and I were getting in bad moods because of how the elections came out, so we said let's go lay in the snow while we still have freedom. I know, not very mature. But it turned into a really fun time. We lay in the snow, started a tiny snow ball fight, and this turned into us running and diving head first down the hill in front of my dorm.That was tons of fun! My hands froze after. haha. Cold water, didn't even feel cold! It was fabulous! I made my first REAL snow angel. She turned out very good. I am excited.

(Will post picture of angel later)

So, time for some great news regarding election night. PROP 8! It passed. I am sooooooo happy. No lies. I was freaking myself out the whole day wondering what if it didn't pass, and working myself up into tears. But way to go California!

Today is rainy, and tomorrow should be too. I really do love the rain. It's the best for sitting in the living room, and crocheting more scarves! OH MY! I forgot! I bought fish like... 5 days ago. 3 to be exact. One died instantly, he just didn't want to swim or move, next thing you know, he's dead. Then there was a big orange one that died 2 days ago. (He was bound to die the fish man at Wal-Mart dropped him on the floor!!!!) But I wanted to give him a proper funeral so, I left him in the bowl until I had time to bury him. Unfortunately, this killed the 3rd goldfish last night. Sad day. So, I buried both of them. At my FHE sister's house I crocheted them a cross, and then we buried them under the snow! Even had some music playing in the background and got the whole thing recorded. I'll post that video when I get it from my FHE sister. That was a sad, but funny funeral, in my courtyard. When the snow melts... people are going to find 2 dead fish. NASTY! :P (Me talking about crocheting reminded me of making the cross, which reminded me of this funeral.)

So, around... 30 minutes after the funeral, we decide... I need more fish. So we went to Wal-Mart and I got 4 new fish, and 3 Ghost Shrimp. 28 cents per fish, and 26 cents per shrimp. I'm cheap. haha.
Here are their names.. Left to Right, with descriptions.
Far Left, Albino one, his name is Sickle. It was Popsicle, but I shortened it cause he looks sick considering he has no color, so Sickle.
Left one of the fish on the Right, facing Right. Speckle. He is orange with a tiny brown spot on the top of his fin.
Right of Speckle is, Pop tart. A'lyce named him. and I like it.
Far Right and a little more up is, Tiger. She is white and orange, and it reminds me of a tiger. So I named her Tiger.
You can't see the ghost shrimp because well... they're see through. If you have good eyes you might be able to, but I sure can't.
The shrimp's names are... Momo, Domo, and Larry.

Nice huh?


So that's my excitement for last night. I was staring at the bowl for a long time loving how tiny they were and the fact that they were so energetic and followed my face when I moved. They love me. The other fish didn't. That must be why they died. Haha.


Soo, Friday. No classes. I woke up at 1:00. (Didn't mean to) Took a 30 minute shower.. (not sure how that happened) made breakfast.. and have been spending time on this blog. Yup, fascinating day. Don't forget that it's raining. : ) I am glad I am smiling now. In text at least. haha. So, it is time for me to study some. Sorry for the delay in keeping up with blogging. Love and miss everyone and I will be home the 21st! yay! The day Twilight comes out in theater's! YES! <3
