Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these broken wings and learn to fly, all your life, you were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Alright gang, you wanted me to have an adventure?  Well I had one on Tuesday this week.

As I'm sure you've all read by now, I fell down a flight of stair at the SOAS library.  Funny thing is, I was en route to getting a book that's not available in the Kings library that had an article I needed to read for a class.  Shows how much dedication I've got to academia I suppose.  I guess you could say I'm okay.  Nothing's broken, but my legs are both swollen, heavily bruises and cut up.  The right leg has gone down a bit, but my left leg looks like a fat person's  My right arm has some skin missing too.  Gotta love it.  I was walking down the stairs and I don't know what happened, but next thing I knew, I was falling down a flight of stairs, with a full backpack on and a dress.  Thankfully, people were around to help me stop myself before I hit the bottom.  My shoes flew off and were at the bottom on the floor below.  A guy picked them up and brought them to me and asked if I needed water or to call the lift.  I said I was fine but he was very persistent.  He helped me sit down and I told him I was fine again and that he could leave.  As soon as he left I started crying, because it hurt that bad.  Some girl saw me and asked if I was okay, because it is strange to see someone crying on the steps inside a library.  I said I was fine, that I had just fallen.  After a couple of minutes I finally got up and got to the stacks where the book was and took it to the photo copier.  I did not even notice until I looked down to grab the copies that my left leg was bleeding through my tights.  Awesome.  So I walked around the city all day with blood stained tights and a limp.

Since then, as I've said, my left leg has gotten worse.  You can see pictures on facebook.  It's pretty bad. I'm actually freaked out about how it looks.  I don't think it's broken.  You wouldn't be able to walk if it were broken, right?  I don't know.

I had plans for the weekend, but I think I am going to have to stay in with my foot propped up on the one pillow I have. :-(  I need a mommy right now.

I hope you all are doing well! Love you and miss you!
