when i was 17 i was walking on a kind of muddy trail next to a quarry and slipped and fell in. i was mostly fine, just bruised and scraped up, but i got a pretty sick 8-ish inch long scar on the outside of my leg. it’s mostly faded now but when i’m tan you can still kind of see it at the bend of my knee.

i have a scar on my knee from tripping on nothing and falling up a concrete staircase on campus. it didn’t even cut my knee, i just smashed it so hard that the skin broke. not even that long ago too
my other most notable scars are on my ankle, and they happened because i lost my shoe in the ocean and swam out to get it, but as i was walking back, a huge wave came up and smashed me down and dragged me along the bottom (which was mostly comprised of sharp rocks and shells). it cut up my ankle and foot pretty badly, but i didn’t notice until i walked all the way back to shore and my cousins said ‘you’re bleeding’. i got my shoe back though

And now I have a crescent shaped scar on my ankle!
Also have a big one on my knee from falling down on the street in roller blades after I said I knew how to roller blade

We had an old pitchfork laying in tall grass with the tines pointing up and me and my sister were playing tag. So I was running very fast and caught it on my leg and then fell on it.
I didn't go to the hospital even though I should've, and now like 11 years later I have a funny round scar on my ankle.

maybe it’s just that i’m young enough that the novelty hasn’t worn off yet but i love becoming more of an adult every year.
as a teenager i was so terrified of not being one anymore but i love being in my twenties so far. so much of it is hard and uncomfortable and there’s so much uncertainty and still! i wouldn’t go back ever ever ever. i have more perspective to weather the uncertainty better, i’m so much less insecure and preoccupied with how i come off to other people, and if i want to change my behavior or my life i have so much more freedom to do it! and i’ll only get more conscious and more interesting as i get older! how fucking cool.
also as someone who really had to grow into my features it’s a nice bonus that i’ll probably get hotter and have better skin as i get older.
