About me

My name is Lana and I love anything that lets me escape from this world and anything that makes me think and anything that inspires me.

I am disorganized and messy. I am open-minded. I can listen to Bob Dylan for hours on end. I love rain. I love summer nights and winter mornings and spring afternoons and fall in midday. I love smells that take me back to different times and places. I love snow and rain and warm sun with a cool breeze. I am still learning about myself.

Also, I'm tough. You can't mess with me.

Actually, 98% of the time I'm too nice for my own good, I mean, if the guy asked nicely, I prolly would have given him money.. Though, either way I didn't have any at the moment.. And I can't really think of one off the top of my head, I know there are more though.. And no, I couldn't tell that you liked them at all. Haha. Wait! I do remember one.. I was hanging out near a pond by my house, and there are railroad tracks at the top of a hill behind me, it's all rock up there, and then there are three kids that show up, and two of them start throwing rocks at me. So I pretend to be all scared and I start running down the path, they try to follow from the tracks and keep throwing rocks at me, they didn't notice that I ran up the hill just ahead of them, I threw some good sized rocks at their legs while they were running, the two tripped and fell.. I went over and kind of.. Knocked their heads on the metal beams of the track? The third kid was like freaking out "Oh! Don't hit me!" and I was like "You didn't throw rocks at me, so I'm not gonna hit you, calm down" then I left..

Badass, huh? Haha, I really don't think of myself that way.. But anyways.. When I was 14 I was walking home from school, through the woods, this big guy pops out from behind a bush and he has a knife, and I mean, this thing was a small knife too. So this was a hilarious sight as is, and then he's all "Give me your money!" So I start laughing, I mean, big guy, tiny knife, asking a 14 year old kid for money? The hell? So I said "A) I'm 14, why would I have money in the middle of the woods? B) I'm on my way home from school, the most I'd have is lunch money. C) The hell you gonna do to me with that knife?" he gets all offended and says "I'll show you what I'm gonna do" and lunges at me, I step backwards, grab his wrist, and his hand under the knife handle, he manages to still get me a bit. So then I'm kinda pissed that he stabbed me, so I tear the knife out of his hands and lunge back at him and kinda got him around his lower neck.. But then I felt bad, carried him to my house and called an ambulance. Patched myself up, and said I just found him like that *shrugs* Haven't heard from the guy since, seen him once or twice though, never talk.

The stories aren't that great, but I've been stabbed in the chest, and that's a pretty good story. Haha. Violent and bloody though.. As for my ribs, these kids that went to my high school were bragging about how tough they all were. So I was leaning on a locker near by and decided to interject. I asked which of them was the strongest. They all point to one kid. I told him to hit me in the chest as hard as he could. He did. And there was a loud cracking sound. I assumed it was because I was against the locker, I laughed and asked the kid if that was his hardest. He said yeah, and they all looked kinda shocked and walked away. Then while I was getting out of the shower the next day I realized my ribs were screwed up quite a bit, and that almost every single one of them was broken. It sucked XD .. Then my sister just kind of had a metal box-ish weight, and hit me really hard with it. They had to pull out bits of metal and bone from my head.. Didn't even think she hit me that hard until I saw all the blood.

Yeah, people do get weird about hospitals.. I'm rather neutral towards them. Nursing homes and hospices don't bother me at all.. I've had my ribs broken and my skull cracked and so many more things, didn't cry at all.. Laughed about the ribs..

Haha, you're welcome.. Shots kind of bug me, but it's not pain or anything, it's just injections. I don't mind them taking blood, I don't mind being stabbed or pierced with a needle. I just don't like things being put into my body.

I didn't think it hurt, I rather enjoyed the feeling.. It was.. Different.. It kind of tightens, stretches, then tears through each layer of skin. I almost wanted to tell them to do a second one. Haha. Where I went, I pai about $20 for the piercing, I got the ring for free because a friendgave it to me, but you can buy them in packs. Though, you coul just do it yourself, or have a frien you trust do it, I pierced two of my friends' lips.

jinx

Apr 03, 2008

i just wrote a whole long thing about making connections with people and jinxing them and then losing the connection. and then i clicked out of the window by accident. awesome.

well i'm not having a very good day. lots of family shit going on that is really making me upset and everyone insists on talking about it but i just don't want to talk about it.
when certain bullies made fun of everyone, what they said about me was that i didn't have any emotions. well i do. i just don't like to show them or talk about them with people. especially about shit like this. it just makes me really uncomfortable and i can't stand it.

that's all for now.
