Edit: Thank you for the desk and the (incoming) chair
I feel a little bit of me die inside whenever I put up a commissions post XD I don't get any most of the time, and I feel a little disheartened each time, but I guess that's how life goes. But still, I'm thickening my skin because I really do need the money to buy a study desk and chair. Sitting and kneeling for long periods of time at the coffee table make my knees hurt and it didn't help that last night when crossing the road, I got knocked down by a car.
Amazingly, I was unhurt, safe for a big bruise on my hip and a bigger one on my right leg near my knee. But I was really shocked when it happened (My first experience as an accident victim? =w=; ) The road was fairly empty, but the car that was turning the corner was there when I was standing there waiting for the green man sign (it's white here in SF but I don't know any other way to call it) to come on. It never moved. And when the green man came on, it still didn't move. Then I stepped onto the road to cross the road (duh) and suddenly it inched forward. I walked diagonally, inching away to the side, thinking that maybe the driver's kinda impatient to go. But even then, it kept inching forward a little faster until it hit me in the thigh.
Surprised, I lost my balance and fell with my legs a little under the car, and in my panic I thought I felt like it was going to go on driving so I slammed my hands on the front of the car and pulled myself up and shouted. I was kinda confused but I swear I saw the driver THEN turn her head towards me with a very shocked expression.
But I was in shock still, and I was chasing after a bus so I kinda backed off, and stared as she drove forward to pull over the curb. But the walk sign was flashing, so I kinda looked back and forth and then ran across the street =__=;;; Everyone whom I told later told me I should have just waited and let her send me to the hospital and make her pay my medical bill. Well, I kinda dread hospitals these days because I don't have any health insurance...and..that was really the first thing on my mind when I checked myself for injuries ...yeah, I swear, this poor man's mentality is really getting to me. ("I won't go to the hospital unless I'm dying!" sorta thing) I kept trying to see if my pants were getting bloodstains on the way home because it hurt but it didn't feel like anything was torn... Just to be sure x__x
Only later on the bus after I told a friend about it via text, I found myself shaking a little from what might have happened if I didn't get up immediately after I fell OTL Slow reaction...
There you go. My first and hopefully last car accident =w=b I wasn't even breaking any rules. On the way back, I'd have really gotten knocked down again if I wasn't limping across another street. That car just swerved round the corner at full speed. The green man was on! I was entitled to walk, dammit. Luckily I stopped right in the middle of the street while it zoomed right past me =__=
Guys, if you drive, please spare a little thought for people crossing pedestrian crossings at night

Asking them for compensation wasn't the first thing on my mind at all, so I guess I didn't stop. Coming to think of it now that my bruises kinda blossomed into ugly blue black things today and started hurting quite abit, I should have =w=;;;

SUE THEM WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT. Lol. Don't ask...but hopefully the pain goes away quickly, and those bruises. Those are never fun.

They're feeling better. Or maybe I'm just getting used to them.

But really, you should put aside that poor people syndrome (because I sort of have it as well, LOL) when it's about your health...Are you okay, now?

Normal means majority. Abnormal implicates minority. There is no such absolute truth or value in that word. What is normal to you?
The reason for a person to live is to be happy...

But...yeah, it's just not the first thought in my mind to go to the hospital to get myself checked and scare people by threatening to sue? That's just not the way I roll XD
