oops #1 |D
so like. xD; today marks the first time i fell off the scooty. roughly 11:30pm, maybe give a few minutes. riding back from youth group, down high street road, pretty much deserted. traffic lights went orange, and i INTELLIGENTLY hit the brakes instead of gunning the throttle (TO GO FASTER) like i usually do, and uh. xD since it was spitting a bit, traction was not fantastic, and really, i should've jumped the light in hindsight, but two weeks ago i did that and saw a flash, and pretty sure i got booked if they got a clear photo but uhhh. xD anyway. should've this time, aside. the scooter went sideways and so did i. |D thunked down on right shoulder, right foot squished under scooty, but no biggie, since i was braking anyway. trackies didn't even tear. :x got up and picked up scooty (it's... not half as heavy as i thought it should be, aha.) and some nice guy turning in from the other road slowed to ask if i was okay. :D and yeah. so i'm fine. but arm is a bit sore, so excuse the lack of bothering to type right. |D

all in all, so far just the arm, yoinked my neck, and a bruise on knee and foot. my boot got a full-on dent in it. and reeks of petrol... so tomorrow i'll go out and have a look at the damage to the scooty itself. |D oops. noticed the petrol gauge was empty when i got home, when it should've been at least a quarter, if not a half tank. right mirror was swinging with the wind, so i guess i'll find a spanner for that. or take it in to service, if necessary. |D; harhar, dear me. ♥

that aside, have come to the conclusion that there -is- something chemically wrong with my brain in the fear side. |D in that -- i don't feel it. there's no stress about deadlines, getting lost, missing planes that i've paid for, being late to exams, drunk old men touching my chest and putting safety pins in scarves i'm wearing, and... a lot things that perhaps should... something. often, can't really tell if something hurts or should hurt properly. came off the scooty at an intersection, and what. no stress either, nothing so much as a raise in heart-rate. (i've been thinking this for a while, so was conscious to note it after the fact -- and yeah. no nothing. there've been a few other incidents, too. lost control of the practise scooter whilst at a learners lesson and stuff; shot through classmates doing laps and over to the other half of the track that we weren't using.) on the flipside, almost nothing is interesting or exciting. but it's always been like that, so oh well. ♥ guess it's better than being freaked out all the time. *madam calm* ;D

anyway, i might sleep now still smell petrol, so i'mma go have another shower, then sleep and see if the arm doesn't hurt by morning, wahaha. |D goodnight, people <3 :D and keep safe! ;D

WTF GIRL MY MANNEQUINS ARE SHOWING MORE EMOTION THAN YOU AT THE MOMENT.

You know your scooter terrifies me, Jo. My grandma lost a son in a motorbike accident when he was 18 and growing up hearing that story kinda makes you SCARED OF CERTAIN VEHICLES. And like, now i'm gonna get no sleep coz i'm gonna be thinking "what if there's a bloodclot in Jo's arteries and it's about to reach her heart?"

I don't know what i'll do if you unwittingly kill yourself on that damn thing.

SLEEEEP, KATH. >:O

there was hardly anyone on the road anyway, that late. :D; and so. it was fine, and hardly a big fall. if there's a bloodclot in my arteries, then i was gonna die anyway. xD ♥

i won't. :3 so please sleep. you need your rest for work. :D

Not always. My Monday night/wednesday night/friday morning dream all ran into eachother, like a tv miniseries. random people from my past were after me, then i ended up back at my primary school where they were waiting for me and was like "FINE THEN, ARREST ME!"

and the rest of my dream was me cuffed to a chair in the old principal's office, with my year 4 teacher Mr Ryan asking me why i'm running away and what i intend to do with my life. it was all very deep.

Buckyyyyyyy XD ::buys you a seatbelt for that thing!:: I'm glad you're okay~ I imagine everyone who has a scooter has fallen off of it at some point, right? Now you can join the secret club! XD; <3 Maybe you just knocked the needle on the gas tank out of alignment? :D;; In any case, I hope it all gets fixed fast and cheaply~ (Um. As in for cheap, not as in shoddy work. :D;;;)

You'd be a good, um, paramedic or firefighter or something, with that calm! :D;; Though be careful, you!

Your traffic lights are orange? Fancy~

yeah, pretty much. xD; *was fully expecting to take a tumble or two in the first few weeks* (that it's only happened now is actually not bad.. 8D; aha. though of course, it would probably be better to not fall at all... xD) yay, the club of "been there, done that! >:D" xD ♥ hopefully it's just something like that~ thank you though! ;D

...huh, that's a good point. xD maybe i'll look into that, if accounting falls through. ;D (though i don't think i'm fit enough... xD ♥ but that can be worked on! 8D) :D thank you, aliali~ i will ♥

xD! well, they're green -- then they go orange for a bit, before turning red. so... yeah. xD; but every time i run the orange, it always turns red before i get to the other side... 8D; so i thought not to do it this time... xD *facepalms* but oh well. xD

XD Well, you made it this far! That's pretty good! (I think I would've fallen off of it the first time I tried to get on. |D; But hopefully it'll never happen again to you~! :D)

XD Yes, you could be one of those people with the really stressful jobs, but it wouldn't bother you! (Um, I'm not sure if that's good or bad, though. :D;; Hey, on the other hand, you could be a flight traffic controller? That doesn't require working out!) <33 NO dying, as long as that's clear~

Ohhhh~ Ours turn yellow, but orange sounds prettier! XD I understand totally, though - you never seem to make it all the way through before it turns red!

Well, fair enough. I got hit by a car recently, though it was nothing - the car was going slow. But it gave me a small insight into my own mortality. This goes doubly for you, since you're the one likely to be wrapped around the scooter!

Given my mum semi-disowned teh brother for not convincing his girlfriend to get rid of her motorbike (amongst other things)... I do worry when I hear your scooter stories (there's a connection between the two, really). :(

Teh mother is a nurse in that part of the hospital that deals with bones, and has consequently seen people come in and out of there due to various traffic injuries, of which motorbikes etc. are kinda over-represented. And then people come back years later because the original operation wasn't 100% successful, and bones need to be reset and all that.

So um, yeah. Not meaning to lecture or anything, but at least try to take care of yourself, yes? ^^;; (LIKE OMG WEAR SOMETHING MORE SUBSTANTIAL THAN TRACKIES HAVE YOU SEEN THOSE FREAKY ADS!!! :ooo)

ouch, your brother... :D; yeah, something like 10x chance of fatality and stuff. i really can imagine it must be tough for your mother. ;;

... xD;! actually, i was wearing my leathers under the trackies. xD;; <-loser. but it's just that, walking around coles in leather pants just feels stupid... 8D;; and my jacket is practically armored, it's okay. :D; ...but, yeah. :D; i hear you, certainly -- i think... i'm careful, up to the logical extent, anyway. ;; but the learning curve's still pretty steep, eheh. |D; it'll be one for next time.

thank you though, sloo. :3 ♥
