I'm going to bed now. G'night, empty thread. Thanks to all who talked to me about what happened today. It's been a difficult day, and ya'll have really helped me. It's great to know that people are there for you whenever you need them, even though they are halfway around the world at times.

 

Thanks for everything, guys.

 

Be safe.

About to go back to school.

 

None of my friends are coming today. All too scared.

 

Things are going to be so much different today.

...Christ.

 

Jessie, I hope things turn out ok, and I'm sorry I wasn't online yesterday to give any support.

It's ok, things are better now, after they calmed down. And thanks. It's quit alright, don't worry about it.

 

I'm sorry my posts were so jumbled and disordered yesterday. I was just a little bit frazzled, if you know what I mean. It's hard for ME to follow what I wrote, haha. Things are a little better today. Some teachers just want to sit and talk about what happened, and others just power through and give us tons of work. So it's been weird. The girl who was shot is better, but they couldn't get the bullet out because it was too close to the spinal column. Some guy that she follows on youtube did a song for her. :3 They found the boys and the gun, and arrested them. They both were charged with a ton of crimes, so... Good luck to them. Or not.

Hey, at least you're all right.

 

Also your high school has a, uh. Interesting name.

Ohmygosh

Seriously hating my teacher right now. He assigns us projects, we get them done early, what does he do? He goes, "Oh yeah, well. The thing that says extra credit on the handout? The extra credit that you didn't do? Well, it's not really extra credit. I forgot about that. So have your 5-page essay by tomorrow, okay?"

I know I can write it, I'm just pissed because I thought I was done.

I am also totally the master of procrastinating.

Wow, that's a lot worse than a school shooting. I feel bad for you.
Yeaaaah... It's the name of the major river our town kind of built up around... But it rather fits, eh?

Yeah, that's the best thing, I suppose. But that girl is not doing great.

A late reply, but Jesus. I'm glad you're okay, and well, the girl might not be doing great, but some idiot shot her inside a small classroom in the /neck/ and she's going to live. And get to recover. Which, I mean, holy shit. While she is horrifically unlucky that she was the one who caught the bullet, it could have easily been a lot worse. 

And just... wow. I can't even comprehend something like that happening at a school. 

*hugs* *gives tea* 

She was outside, cause we were standing behind her. It could very easily been anyone of the people standing outside.

 

Update on her condition - She is paralyzed on the right side, she has now developed pneumonia, and they can't remove the bullet because it's too close to the spinal column. She's on a ventilator. It doesn't look too good.

 

Thanks for the support, I really don't care if you weren't here the minute I posted. What really matters to me is that you guys care enough to reply. It's incredible to think that people halfway around the world give a flip about you.

Pneumonia can be a fucker, but it usually doesn't kill young, healthy people nowadays.

Also as far as I know there is no need to remove bullets shot from a modern gun unless they pose an obvious risk.

In sum I hope she'll be okay, though I worry about the right-side-specific paralysis because it sounds like head trauma to me. Here's hoping I'm dumb and she makes a full recovery.

So I was on tumblr and one of the people I follow started posting Merlin gifs.

 

So I got the first season from the library and I'm on the 6th episode and I'm hardcore shipping Merthur already and it hurts so bad because I know it'll never be really canon. So I'm pretty sure I'll be reading fanfiction again here shortly.
