Song of the day: In the Waiting Line - Zero 7

Movie Quote of the day from Garden State:
Sam: He's defending me. He's my knight in shining armor.
Andrew Largeman: Don't mention knights around Mark, it's a sore subject.
Mark: I'm going to kill that motherfucker.
Andrew Largeman: Pun intended?

So back to school for me. Which is a good thing. When I don't have a reason for getting up everyday & getting dressed, I just sit around in my pajamas & get depressed. My winter break kinda sucked. In addition to depression, I was on crutches due to a sprained knee, and then I got a sinus infection. I actually sprained the knee back on Halloween. I went to a party and accidentally got extremely drunk, (I was drinking witches brew which didn't taste very strong to me so I added more vodka to my drinks. Turns out it was almost all alcohol even before that.) and since I was dressed as a fairy I thought I would gracefully leap off the deck on my way to get another drink and I totally busted my ass instead. Not graceful at all. So I just sat down on the ground and tried to play it off like I meant to do that or something. My friend Angela rushed over & asked if I was ok & I said, "Shhh, I'm trying to be cool about it." And she said, "Oh honey, everybody saw you fall." It was bad, my fairy tu-tu flew up and everyone saw my ass & stuff. The party was outside and they had all these tiki torches lit, I was lucky I didn't catch my fairy wings on fire. I guess everyone else thought the same thing because someone took my wings off, see drunk fairy pic with my wings stuck between my boobs below.


Apparently that's when I sprained my knee but I was too drunk to realize it, then I fell down like four more times that night. So I woke up the next morning with all these bruises and my knee hurt like hell, but I thought it would just go away. Over the next few weeks my knee would just give out randomly and I would almost fall down. Finally over break, I was out Christmas shopping all day and that night my knee was all swollen and I couldn't walk on it at all. So I went to the ER the next day and they told me it was sprained, put me on crutches for two weeks (but I only used them for like 2 days because they made my arms hurt worse than my knee) and gave me some good drugs.

I'm finishing up my applications for grad school. I had to scratch about 4 schools from my list because I missed their deadlines which were Dec. 31/Jan. 1 and I was too sick and in pain to get everything done on time. Well hopefully someone will accept me and it will be somewhere cool and not too far away from home. I feel so conflicted about leaving. I can't wait to get out of my parents house because they really get on my nerves. I mean I love them to death, but we would get along better if I didn't have to live with them. And I'm excited about moving since I've always lived here and I'm eager to experience something new. But I'm also scared. Scared to be far away from my family. Scared of how it will affect Maggie. Scared to be alone.
