Little Siblings

I'm a firm believer of the fact that younger siblings will be angels and perfectly nice to you when they want something, but once you've given it to them, they're back to doing every little thing that's going to annoy the hell out of you. Aren't they sweet? not...

I'm getting closer all the time to finishing high school forever! Except some of my assignments aren't getting any closer to being finished at all. I hate that they give you the lame, long, silly assignments all at the same time at the end of the year! AND I hate people who go on and on about how easy school is when you've just told them how hard you're finding it. Come on guys, learn to be discreet why don't you!

Anyway, I just wanted to complain as I do because all of my little siblings are being pains in my butt. They're also known as everyone shorter then me... err, plus one. And we have no milk and no tomato sauce and I really want a pie!

To My Adoring Fans!

(Image may offend some viewers... but you've already seen it now, so ha!)

Alright, so I'm pretty sure I don't have any fans because my blogs are pretty lame, but anyone who can ever by bothered reading anything I write probably wants an update by now!

In August I had a partial knee reconstruction. I tore my anterior cruciate ligament a few years ago umpiring basketball and I've finally done something about it. They took out my old ligament, took part of my patella tendon and screwed it in place of the old ligament. Soon enough it'll be as good as new and it wont hurt when I walk. I can't wait for that day!

So since the operation I've had a fair bit of physio and hydro therapy. Physio every week or so, hydro three times a week. You wouldn't believe how many people have said to me, "What's hydro therapy?" It's like they've never left the house or something! No, that's a bit mean, in case
you don't know what it is, it's pretty much just exercise in the water. We're all clear? Cool. For those of you who think walking around in a pool for a while is easy, I'm telling you now, it's not! It makes me so tired I just want to sleep forever! Yet sadly, that's not possible because I have major assignments and overdue assignments from just after my operation. Shall we say the world is out to get me, or is that a little melodramatic?

Anyway, so it's almost three weeks since my operation now and I can walk! Jealous much? When I was first trying to get off of my crutches walking felt impossible and I seriously couldn't believe how humans were supposed to do this everyday. I did eventually build up the muscles enough to put my weight on it, but that wasn't easy either. One of my biggest challenges at the moment is remembering exactly how to make my leg move. If I sit for too long I forget how to walk and have to think about it for a second. It sound silly, but it's pretty tricky stuff!

I went to both hydro and physio today so I'm pretty pooped! I made my first friend today too, his normal footy gang have graduated from hydro so he was lacking some friends. One thing I've learnt today is that it's so nice to have someone else who knows how you feel! I now a lot of people do, but being in the pool doing hydro and having someone else gasp at the sudden pain because they've moved wrong, or moved too far... It's a nice feeling... In a kind of mean way (:

I've just realised that I have a few GP's, an orthopedic surgeon, a hydro therapist and a physio therapist. And that's only this week!

Tune in next time for more exciting tales of me!

Physio Story!

I was at the physio today and while we were there, dad called mum on the phone to let her know he was on his way home. When She hung up, I asked if he was bringing food home. A common question, I always ask it at least =D
After I asked that question, my physio asked me if my dad was a chef. At first I couldn't work out why, she seemed to think that if I wanted him to bring food home, he must work somewhere that they have food. She doesn't know that I expect everyone to bring me food though.
I had to do some health survey for some Government thing... I think... the lady doing that asked me lots of questions about food, but she didn't bring me any. I think she should have brought me some (:
