at a birthday sleepover in the third grade i attempted (with no experience) to do a handstand while we were having a dance party and fell flat on my face, giving myself rug burn straight down my nose. i didn’t notice until the morning when my parents picked me up the next morning and were, rightfully, concerned. you can still see the scar when the light hits just right☀️

I have a dent in my right eyebrow that’s only visible when I raise my brow. This scar came from recess in 2nd grade.
Recess has just started and I was insanely pumped to be outside with my buddies playing wizards or whatever other bullshit we had planned that week. I ran right out into the asphalt that you had to cross to get to the playground , and forgot to pay attention to my surroundings. I remember smiling so hard that I could feel it in my cheeks, and I felt so free running as fast as I possibly could to get to the tire swings before the other kids in my grade got to them. Just as I got about halfway across, I felt the impact of someone pushing me over with all of their might. I fell face first, skidding about 5 feet just on my face. I slowly got up and immediately felt the blood rushing over my eyelashes. I started crying and someone alerted the supervisor, who brought me to the nurse. I had a fat lip, a scraped up face, and the skin above my eyebrow was broken open. It didn’t really hurt, just felt kind of numb after it was cleaned and taken care of. My mom still got called in because I was pretty shaken up from the whole ordeal.
Later in the day, I had a girlscouts meeting to attend at one of the girl’s homes. I told my mom I was fine to go, so we went. When we got there, it turned out that the girl who was hosting its little brother was the one who pushed me LOL. He had confessed to his mom earlier in the day that he felt so bad because he pushed a girl on recess who had run into the middle of his kickball game. i saw the fear on his face when he saw me walk into their entryway and ended up leaving early.

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

omg you haven’t seen that film? you haven’t heard that music? you haven’t read that book? THAT’S NORMAL!!!! i feel like there is so much social pressure to consume whatever media makes you niche and unique and cultured and i’m OVER IT. it’s normal to have not seen every cool movie or show on the planet or heard every album to ever exist. consuming media is something that should be enjoyable and happen gradually over time, not something you force to meet arbitrary cool person standards. i’m so done with feel a social obligation to consume certain things. i’ll get to it when i get to it! let me have my taste, im okay with not knowing everything!
