• Oh, man. This will be a long one.
• Y-shaped scar on left eyebrow: Got this when I was about four or five. I was jumping back and forth on my beds—spoiled child talking here, I had two beds—when my cousin, who was sleeping over on one of them, kicked me. Next thing I know, my motion was going in a different angle and my eye was on a straight path to a corner of the bed. Now, why is the scar y-shaped when the cut was a straight line? My grandma was a doctor, and I guess the cut was bleeding too much to go to the hospital, so she stitched it up at home, without anaesthesia, and I jerked during it, so the cut ripped more. Wah.
• Scar on my forehead: A week after the first scar, I was sliding back and forth on our newly polished floor when my head made a beeline for a stool edge. Good times.
• Both ankles and knees: Sports-related injuries. I had to go to physiotherapy for my ankles for a good half year. What sports gave me these blessings? Flag-football, skiing, soccer, and, newly, skating. Went skating yesterday down by the harbour and my left knee got banged up nicely. The worst part about these limb injuries is that I’m usually fine for the rest of the day, but as soon as I wake up the next day, they hurt like bitches. I’ve been limping like a pirate all day.
• Got hit by a car about three times in my life. But they weren’t bad hits. Totally not my fault either.
• Used a knife to open a package once? Slashed my forearm by accident.
• Oh yeah, that one time a BIKE hit me. Awesome guy, that one was.
• A bajillion toe stubs.
• Yeah, I’m done with this subject because I realized I’ve probably caused more bodily harm to myself and others than I can talk about. I swear I’m not even clumsy either. I’m just really reckless with my body.

• First and foremost, I love winter.
• I get to wear comfy and snug sweaters and scarves and mittens and hats.
• Snow is pretty. Especially when you’re looking down on it from 23 stories up and you see all the roofs covered with fresh snow.
• Snow = skiing, toboganning, snowman-making, starbucks walking, prettier Christmas lights.
• Cold = outdoor ice rinks, the month of December aka my birthday.
• There are some things I don’t enjoy about it, such as early sunsets, never-ending darkness, slush, I feel tired all the time because it’s dark all the time, wet hair that turns into ice, always wet shoes, and how ugly snow becomes after the cars hit the road.
• Also, the fact that I have to wear socks indoors is something I don’t enjoy too much. Why do I wear socks indoors when I hate socks and why does this only happen in the winter? Because no matter how many layers I have on over the rest of my body, as long as my feet are cold, I am a shivering mess. Thus, the socks.
• So the point of this? As much as I love winter, it can never compare to my one true love, summer.
• This has been a disorganized and pointless post I made in order to procrastinate.

• When I make promises, I genuinely try and keep them.
• This doesn’t mean some of them don’t get broken, though. Some things are just out of my grasp or control.
• Which is why if I’m iffy about something in the very beginning, I won’t be making any promises regarding anything surrounding that something.
• But I’m going to be honest here. When I do break promises, those promises are usually ones I made to myself. Which is actually quite sad.
  
• Maybe this post doesn’t even make any sense to you. Especially that last sentence that is weirdly italicized and then the last bolded word.
• But, well, I never promised you anything.

• I used to play soccer for a team. It was almost religion for me.
• I used to go out everyday in my street when I was younger and kick a ball around with the neighbourhood kids. It always got rough. I’ve broken someone’s nose by accident (more on that at a later date).
• Even though I was mainly striker, I’ve played every single position except for goalkeeper.
• I prefer the term football for it. Even though I love the American version of football, too.
• Manchester United will always be my team. “MAN U PRIDE IS THE BEST PRIDE!” I got my dad a Man U shirt when I went to Europe. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him smile that widely.
• I almost got a heartattack when they played Arsenal yesterday.
• Friends who support/play for other teams are enemies until the game is over. Just kidding! Am I really, though?
