Undies Run, Crutches, LARS and whats coming next

Heyyy Everyone!!
Lets talk crutches....everyone loves to grab an play with crutches unless they actually have to use them, then they try and ditch them as soon as possible!  As a kid I somehow thought it was bad luck to play with crutches, so I NEVER did.  But no worries over the past year I have spent MONTHS of it on crutches.

First time I was on crutches I was a model crutcher.  I walked very slowly and carefully with them, wouldn't even go out on the crutches, and for should would NEVER have decided I should go for a 2 mile run in my undies on crutches with thousands of other people,

I did get some awesome piggy back rides so thanks to those guys!

or CLIMB A ROOF at night!

 I for should would not have stilt crutched:

But This time around I've loosened up a little (or a lot) and it seems to be working out just fine for my knee, and is a helllllaa lot more FUN!

But still.....having to be on crutches is NOT where i want to be, so I need to get fixed pronto!!!!

And I want to try something different that just might last a little longer.  So I'm going to Canada on Wednesday and getting the LARS surgery there.  For my social media class we are starting a podcast series, so I decided to do mine on the surgery and rehab.  Most of my friends and family don't know what the LARS is or how it works.  This podcast below is an introduction to LARS and my podcast series.

THE BEST

I have the best friends ever.  HANDS DOWN.  They are the coolest people in the world and I am SO LUCKY that they hang out with me ;)   Yesterday Abbie and Ang gave me the coolest goodie bag evaaaaa.

Here's the video of me drinking with my super silly straw!

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!!

Level 1 4bi9 recap HOLLA

So the level 1 4bi9 Premier was AMAZING!!!! mad props to all the homies out there killin it!  Seriously one of the most fun nights in my life! Loved seeing everyone!  Dancing on crutches....Always a good time!  Since Kirsten and I both cannot be responsible for a camera (I lose my phone while it's tied to my waist.)  Here are some photos taken by the one and only Trevor Woods!

Also thanks to Erik for letting us crash at his place, Plus letting me use his computer for my 10:15 class the next day!

Speaking of crutches on Saturday night after going to an awesome party thrown by miss Allie!  Which unfortunately got busted in like 30 minutes  I was at a random house with random people and the next thing I knew Abbie said my crutch was gone!  yes someone is now the proud owner of 1 Gold and blinging Jtitties crutch,  good thing I got loaned another pair cause I'm SO sick of buying crutches!

Also, today I was swinging in my back yard, It fell, I landed and got the wind nocked out of me, passed out, woke up with the EMTs there, chillen in my Pajamas with no bra......SUPER CLASSY  I got up and was completely fine,  It's normal to black out then wake up with no symptoms and remember everything right?

Cause Life's high until you crash and burn

So I haven't made a blog post in a while and there is a reason for that.  I busted up my knee again and fell into an acute depression.  I have never been so frustrated and sad in my entire life.  I couldn't bear to talk with even my closest friends about what was going.  I excluded myself in my room, and struggled through school which started the very day I busted myself up.  I spent a few days screaming that I couldn't survive if I couldn't ski this year.

Gradually I realized I couldn't stay in this depression.  I needed to get up and get going with my life.  I was pretty sick of all the optimistic comments everyone was throwing at me like how this was going to make me so much stronger and shi* I know every single person was trying to help and I truly appreciated and respected how many great friends and family members out there.

Later that week my friend introduced me into a surgery that will take 8-12 weeks of recovery.  The ligament is 5 times stronger and has a much lower rupture rate.  That got me out of bed.  The surgery is not FDA approved so I'm heading to Canada on Friday.

After I got a glimmer of hope that I could shred this winter I decided to embrace what was going on.  I spray painted my crutches gold and put mad bling on them like my pimp cup.  I started talking to my friends again and went with them to Dew Tour and partied all weekend.  I figured how to still have my life regardless of what gets chucked at me.

I am continuing to rehab hard. I'm doing pool exercises as well as range of motion for my knee specifically.  I am also working core and hips like crazy so I don't get any muscle atrophy.  This Wednesday is the Level 1/4bi9 premier!!!!!!

hit it up on facebook!

 I'm beyond stoked!!!  And starting then Kirsten is back in town for a bit and we are gonna be GoProing some adventures and adding more pictures and videos to keep you all entertained so make sure to check back after that!  I am also going to be filming and talking about my rehab process so you can all hear first hand how this works.

I also find it entertaining that I hear back about my blog from fbook and just people in general, for a class I'm taking in school I actually have to share this blog with my classmates and teachers........ but no worries the vibe is going to stay exactly the same.

"same old shi*, just a different day, out here tryin to get it, each an every way, times are gettin hard, guess what imma do? HUSTLE, hustle, hustle HARD"

So if you ever feel like you literally can handle it and you don't wanna hear bout how this is so good for you, cause literally I livin my life strong is a hell of a lot better for me then sittin with me leg propped up again, just zone out to music and get ur a$$ outta bed and back into ur life.
