Update on my broken ankle

Here is my x-ray, showing fractures in two places.

 

It's been three weeks since I broke my ankle on the bus.

 

Here is my bandage from the hospital to wait until the swelling goes down.

 

Yesterday I was given a proper hard cast on my ankle :)

 

I chose black, of course :)

 

I don't need surgery, although I might need it in the future if my bone fragment doesn't stick. I've been told to rest for another three weeks (lame!) and then I'll get a walking boot (yay!)

 

I'm really bummed, because I'm missing out on a house party, two clubs, and Killing Joke!

Killing Joke are having a concert next week, playing their singles. I'm really sad that I won't be able to see them. It would be really hard for me to get there and hobble around on crutches.

 

I feel bad that I'm missing out on so much work. I'm lucky that I have enough sick leave. I want to get back as soon as possible. I feel so guilty for having so much time off.

I haven't run out of things to watch, and I luckily have a lot of items to read on my Samsung tablet. I'm currently watching a lot of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 :)

 

I'm a bit lonely, but I'm always lonely so what's new? I'm annoyed that I can't do anything productive, like craft stuff, because all of my craft items are in boxes which requires me to walk around lots! :(

Maybe next week I'll try to get some sewing done. I'm doing a little bit of crochet at the moment, I'm going to make a blanket. I need more wool, but I obviously can't go and buy any.

It's finally cold here in Perth, and I'm really sad that I'm missing it! I love walking outside in the morning when I can see my breath. Stupid broken ankle.

200 Followers Giveaway!

Wow! I nearly have 200 followers!
This is such a surprise, I never thought a girl like me would get so many readers. I wish I could meet each of you to thank you in person!
I only need to get around 10 more readers to reach 200!

I will be having another giveaway once I reach 200. I'm thinking I'll have three sets of prizes this time, but I need to think what to give away! :)

The lame side effect of breaking a bone is that you have way too much time to waste. I've found these two websites which seem really interesting.

Morbid Anatomy has a bunch of online exhibitions, and links to other obscure websites.

The Midnight Archive features a videos about different topics on the strange and unusual. Very interesting!

I especially love the newest video featuring this guys awesome apartment.

Picturing New York @ AGWA

Last Sunday I went to the Picturing New York exhibition at the Art Gallery of Western Australia with a friend. It was the last day of the exhibition, and it's part of the partnership between MoMA and AGWA.
The photographs were interesting, I enjoyed the architecture photos. I don't think I enjoyed this exhibition as much as the last one.
I'm very excited about the next one, because it will feature Dali artwork.
The museum currently has a Egypt exhibit on now, so I'm looking forward to seeing that!

After going to the art gallery, I fell on the stairs on the bus and fractured my ankle :(
At least I looked cute?

I'm not to sure about this red lipstick. It feels a bit orange?

The sweater clip is actually a skull collar chain from Asos.

 

Cardigan: Banned (I'm not happy about the quality, especially because it cost $50)

Shirt: City Chic

Skirt: It's either Asos or Evans (I can't get up to check because of broken ankle)

Boots: Underground Shoes

 

I always said that City Chic were too expensive, but they're really bringing out some cute stuff. It can't resist it!

 

 

After walking through the exhibition, there was a photo opportunity at the end with a landscape of New York. Here is me and my friend. I worked with him at Fringe World, and I didn't realise we had so much in common.

I've Fractured My Ankle!

I'm currently writing from my bed, my foot in a cast. On Sunday I was getting off the bus and fell down the strairs, hurting my ankle badly.
Luckily, two nice girls from Switzerland helped me hobble home. I thought I only had a sprain, but I went to the doctors and got an xray and found out that I had a fracture!
I've never had a broken bone before, so it was a bit scary and very stressful. I got a cast put on my leg, and now I'm going to be stuck in bed for a whole week.
It sucks a bit, because I live by myself so I don't have anyone to help me.

I have to go to the hospital next week, because I may need surgery :(

I feel really stupid by hurting myself. I just hope that I'll be all healed by October, when I'm going away on my holiday.
I walk EVERYWHERE, so it's going to be really difficult for me to get anywhere. I'm just planning on spending this week in bed. I've been given crutches, but I find them very hard to use.

Here is a quick photo of me that I like.

Mediocre Chinese

Last night I went out with my old high school buddy Stephanie. We went to Hawkers in Perth, which I was expecting more from, it was very mediocre.

I love catching up with Steph, we always laugh lots and people stare at us because we're too loud. She told me she also stalks my blog, haha :)

 

Here is Stephanie getting her head eaten by a shark.

 

It kinda looks like she's naked under her coat, but she was wearing shorts and a singlet!

 

This is a new dress from ASOS Curve. Winklepickers are from Demonia.

 

 

It's funny how when I try to be Pin-Up I just look like a dork instead! :)

 

Stephanie is holding her left-over chicken that I was displaying in all of the photos.
