♥ 7 days (:

I am really excited because I will be getting my braces off in 7 days ! I am happy because I have had this stupid things on since the end of 6th grade, and now I am in 9th grade. So I am very anxious, plus I get them off the day before halloween which is a thursday. So I get to eat a bunch of candy (: that is unless I brake them before i get them off, which will probably happen because I have to cheer at a football game today and at those I usually brake one. Too bad though that this is my last game becasue nest week I will be getting my braces off on thursday which would be another day of the game and I could show my teeth ! but to bad it stinks ): oh well i am still very thankful.! now all we have to pray for is that i dont break them again and write about it in the next blog !

2nd Injury in A Row !

So hard to believe. I did it again, but this time... it wasn’t my arm, it was my left ankle. So it was third our which is my gym class. We had just finished changing and now were walking out from the locker room to the gym. As we sat in our spots our gym teacher Mr. Bohn told us we were going to be playing tennis outside. I knew it was going to be freezing and I said," NO! Does anybody have a sweat shirt?" though I thought being cold was the most of my worries, little did I know I was in for a big surprise. To get to the tennis field you need to leave from the field house, and as we were walking out that there I saw a friend of mine named Tiffany. She couldn’t participate in gym because she forgot her clothes. She was wearing a sweat shirt I asked her if I could wear it. She said," Yes of course girl." Excited I grabbed it, put it on and ran out the door.
Mr. Bohn told us to grab a partner to verse other pairs with. So Ashley and I chose to be partners and to verse Justin and Darren. We started off playing pretty well, then out of nowhere the ball came towards me and I ran to hit it, as I swung the racquet and I jumped to hit it. BAMB! I landed on my foot and it twisted! The pain rushed! It swelled up so HUGE and it was turning blue. It hurt so badly, and again getting teary I stood up and said," NO! NOT ANOTHER INJURY AGAIN!" But in my head I knew it was another one. So Ashley walked me down to the school office. And I iced it. I could not even walk on it. They had called my mom because I could not go on with the day. There was no way I was going to be able to get from class to class, plus the amount of pain... NO WAY. And to get my stuff I had to roll around the school in a wheel chair! It was so embarrassing! Everyone was looking at me and yelled," Isn’t that the same girl that just hurt her arm?" and others," This girl hurts herself every day." It really made me angry to see all of these people talk about me, but what was I to do? Once my mom came she took me straight to St. Mary’s emergency room, and they took some x-rays, and by this time I was getting used to x-rays. They gave me a sling for my foot. And I had to use crutches for the rest of the week.
