Sunday, up 6:30, talk to USA girl for 30 minutes, get ready to leave, and head towards Subway. Because it's Sunday the subway thingies go late, so me being there at 7;40 was nice, but the first one went at 8:04. After quite a bit of waiting, I finally manage to get myself to the subway station I was suppose to go.
Meet my mom, get picked up by my sister and her boyfriend with the car. Drive to the beach, all is fine. Arrive near the beach, walk towards the beach.
Our idea was to play beach volley, but we didn't sign up fast enough, so we were in reserve spot #1. Off to the front of the beach we went, to unpack, and settle down, bake off our territory  By then 2 friends of my sister arrived (note, sister is 30, out of your league, dont ask)
We were gonna play 4on4, at least if we got a spot. 9:45 and we hear we're due to play on field 73, and off we go. Our first match was lost 7-21, quite bad. The 2nd match went a lot better, we were winning, I was standing on the offensive, front of the field. Some guy was on the opposite of me, and when the ball came there, he made a weird move and I managed to hit him with my toes frontal, and they were hurting.
I finished the game, which we WON, but I could barely walk. After that I spent another 9? hours on the beach, mostly sunbathing (guess what a tomato I look(ed) like, heh, everything hurts)
17:30 time to leave, off to the hospital cause I still couldnt walk. Turns out I have a broken toe, and the toe next to it has a cut in the bone, nothing can be done against it and it just has to heal.
Now im stuck with 30 degrees outside, can barely walk, and red as a tomato.
Please have sympathy, thanks

You broke your toe at beach volleyball?! oh well, hope u get well soon :-).
|
|

and then ur skin comes peeling off... eew
|
You're screwed... I broke my toe, and every time that is seems like it is about to heal (like after a month or two) I always manage to rebreak it.
I never went to the hospital for broken appendages though, perhaps I really should have for my broken hand but I didn't have health insurance (yes Canada has free health insurance but you have to sign up for it and I was put in weird situation with just moving to dif province and my insurance just ran out in old province and I had to wait x months etc etc)

I broke my back once snowboarding.
Save for maybe the skull, I think the back is about as hardcore as you can get without dying.
Amazingly I'm not paralyzed, and it all healed fine.

Speaking of broken body parts, reminded me of a time in my childhood.
When i was in grade 1, i was playing outside in the schoolyard on Royston's (my elementary) Jungle Gym. During a game of some sort of tag (don't really remember WHAT game i was playing) i was trying to speedily move across some monkey bars... well, i missed the bar and came crashing down on my left arm. That was the first of my injuries. I had a 3" hairline fracture.
7 months later, 4 or 5 before school was out, i was again playing on the allmighty monkey bars, but this time, i was playing a game of Chicken. (i don't know if this game was limited to my school or what, but it has alot of names; you hang from the monkey bars while gripping the other person with your legs - u try to either pull them off the monkey bars, or get them to say uncle[or any other word the 2 competitors agree to before the match]) Strangling Kyle Kidder, (my THEN best friend) i managed to pull an 'uncle' from his mouth. He really doesn't like to lose, i figured out, as he kicked me in the groin. I came tumbling off the monkey bars and landed on my right ankle. I was on my mini-crutches for 3 weeks.
Grade 2, a new year; crossing my fingers for no injuries this time. September passes, and im injury free (except for maybe a stubbed toe or 2). October passes, and i still i remain intact and whole. November, December, and the months through to May pass, and i finally run out of luck. But this time i wasn't anywhere close to monkey bars. I got hit by a utility trailer.
Ok, so maybe _i_ didn't get hit by the Utility trailer... i mean, it WAS parked, so i guess it would be more accurate to say im the one who hit _it_. regardless, i had to take a trip to the hospital to close the raging gap in my scalp, consuming 18 stitches. (just wanted to add that my bitch of a gr.2 teacher wouldnt let me wear a hat indoors to cover up my bandages. she said it was rude, disrespectful, and unfair to the other students. It wasn't a big deal, but i was all ready called a freak by many of my peers, i didn't need any help from a head-encompasing bandage).
Gr.3 rolls around and on the 2nd day of school, im at my favourite hangout. The monkey bars. By this time i had discovered how to do flips off of them, (i don't know if any of u have had this experience, but u sit sideways on the monkey bars so that ur legs are parallel with the crossing bars. u tuck ur feet under the opposite ledge, and then u lean backwards. u continue doing so until ur legs can no longer bend, and then u release them, flipping and landing on ur feet) and was flaunting my fantastic feat. Showing off only works when u can perform flawlessly, and flawless is not how i would describe the last flip i ever made on monkey bars. i don't know exactly *where* i went wrong, but instead of landing on 2 feet, i landed on 1 arm. It broke.
Speedy recovery occured (as speedy as a broken bone can heal i guess, i was in a cast for at least a month) and i was back on the monkey bars. It was at this time that the rest of my family conceded that i was alergic to monkey bars - something my mom had voiced 2 years earlier. During a game of 'Catch Me' (Please back off on my use of brackets, some things just need explaining, ok?. This game was one for the big boys. a game of stakes. One person challenges another for a game of 'Catch Me'. The challengee gets to choose to be 'it' or 'running from it', and a referee (usually a girl, as they usually preferred to watch) stands to the side with a stop watch set for 2 minutes. The 'running from it' then has those 2 minutes to avoid being tagged from 'it'. Whoever won the game also won the other persons #Mr.Noodles.) Being that i had always prided myself on my speed when i was younger, - as in the age before i became overweight - i opted to be 'running from it'. To make this long story a bit shorter, i tried to run on TOP of the monkey bars, and *gasp* i fell off. I was in crutches for the 2nd time.
Returning to school 2 days after my incident, (which is the whole point of my story by the way), i was presented by my class an award named 'Bandaid Star'. Being that i had broken in one way or another all 5 of my extremities - both legs, both arms, and my head - i had made myself into a broken star. (if one were to point their limbs straight out, they would make a star-shape) The award had a golden star in the top left with a person sketched over it. She said that 'broken star' sounded too negative, so at the top it said "Bandaid Star". Below the title was a statement signed by my teacher, principal, vice principal, and school nurse, 'requesting' that i never touch monkey bars again. (i say request in quotes because i was actually BANNED from them. all the lunch-time monitors were told to prevent me from going on monkey bars)
Anyways, thats my story. When i get a scanner i'll make sure to dig out that award and scan it; it's quite pretty *_*.
# - Mr.Noodles were the rave in grade 3. the actual deal was that u could pick any item from ur opponents lunch, but no one picked ANY item, they picked Mr.Noodles. Raw, crunchy, and so-so-so salty. yum. (for those of u who live in a place where mr.noodles are called by another name: Cup-A-Noodle, Ramen Noodles, Noodles-in-5, i don't know any others)

i've been stitched(chin,kindagarden,was pretending to be a dog and..)
taped(hand,knife,apple,miss,yea.)
stapled ("friend" hit me over the head with a stop sign,9 staples in the head for trance+_+)

never broke anything,and i never drink milk!heheheeh fu calcium
