i fell down the stairs after my first period and at least 5 people saw me awkwardly laugh while I limped away ⋆˚꩜｡ - 08/13/26

trigger warning for mentions of blood and injury cuz guess what!!!! i fell down half of the stairs and got an injury that had caused blood!!!

anyways lets start in the morning when i had my coding class. it was the end of class, i was getting my backpack and this girl that i had actually been planning on trying to befriend this year complimented me on my outfit. i was wearing a pink long sleeved affliction shirt, a mixture of different light colored-shorts, and grey tights (this is important.) i said thank you and complimented her on her rainbowdash backpack, which i thought was literally the coolest like i was so jelly…. + shes a sophomore so that was pretty kewl we walked a little bit and talked but we went our separate ways quickly.

SO

it’s the second day of my b day, right? i thought my spanish class was on the second floor, so i walked across the bridge (i was already on the second floor) and into the opposite building— after realizing that my class was indeed below me, i went to the inside stairs.

that’s when it all went wrong.

the first flight, fine. key point, i was wearing my mary janes, which i have had little practice walking with cuz they have big chunky bottoms. i get to the second flight and my feet start wobbling on the first few steps, and then i lose my balance and fall down basically to the bottom. i awkwardly laughed as i immediately felt the pain of my knee being busted open, and by the way, im not ALONE. there are other people walking up and down the stairs, and it was so embarrassing cuz literally no one said anything like hello guys pls help i felt like meg from family guy

so i limp the rest of my way to my spanish class, and im totally bleeding. as im wincing, a girl ahead of me takes out a bandage from her bag and gives it to me!!!!! total lifesaver, love her and dont even know who she is but ik shes in my class so i WILL find her

i did ALSO make two new friends in study hall which was pretty kewl but im so conflicted about today cuz i busted my knee open on the stairs but. three potential new friends……. (maybe four if one of the three get me in with the other girl i wanna be friends with but idk) like should i feel good about this day cuz i made new friends or should i feel bad about this day cuz i fell down the stairs and had to peel my tights off my dried, sticky wound? (also chipped my nail polish.)

i dont wanna feel neutral, cuz today was so good but so bad but so good……. ugghhhhhhhhhHHHhIsoaoahsgxidjdnxnxnmsjxhoxsolsksjsj 

steph, OUT and HURT but HAPPY cuz NEW FRIENDS but it STINGS
