Bought today a 1600 page comprehensive book on medicine on which I'm supposed to have a big exam on roughly a year from now. Spent like 2 hours reading 10 pages or so. Extremely hard to process, although it should be from stuff I've already learned from the past, I made the mistake of going straight to the neurology part out of sheer curiosity.

Finishing university in a couple of months, after 6 years, it makes me look back on how my life has changed. The truth of the matter is, that I will probably have to move abroad after everything and it sickens me to think about it. I have a girlfriend here, friends and a settled life, but due to economical destabilization the choice won't really be mine.


My friends will move as well, but thinking also about the girl right now...and at the fact that the last time I made a decision based on my SO, it ended up badly.

I can already imagine myself swaying through the night away from everything that I hold dear, in a fucking cross-country buss while listening to this:



I've discovered that no matter how much you change as a person, who you have around you, or where you are, the music always keeps the same memories alive.

Trying to find a parking spot today someone backed out of a place and turned into the street towards me, but like froze half way through getting to the other side (its a tiny street). I couldn't get past and I was about honk at them (which is a big deal in Seattle) when I realized I knew the person... I really wanted to honk angrily.

I did a U-turn at the end of the block and went back around and she had totally jacked the parking spot I wanted. Bitch.

Originally posted by SYSTEM-J That probably says more about how overloaded the university system is in this country than the healthcare system. Even when I've lived in shitty areas where the GPs are overrun, it's never taken more than 48 hours to get registered. Your uni is probably struggling from thousands of new students registering at once. If it's remotely serious, I'm pretty sure that if you go into A&E at a hospital they'll see you without asking for any NHS card. Best to go in the afternoon though.

The problem was that I didn't want to go crowd up the A&E if it's not a serious issue, so I wanted to talk to a nurse or something to get their opinion on what I should do.

After I talked on the phone with my school, they finally sped up my process, so that I could talk to someone, but by the time they could talk to me, I had to be at (placedrop) Parliament for an event, so I actually missed the call while I was going through security.

Not sure I should have gone to the event, but I really didn't want to miss it. Ended up taking some serious painkillers and forcing myself through it, but walking is still not something I'm happy about.


Jenny, I feel so old typing this, but I fucked some tendon or something up getting up this morning . I was just getting out of bed and I stretched my legs and something behind my knee went POP and suddenly lots and lots of pain. Took a few hours before I could actually put any weight on it at all and a few more before I could shuffle/limp around. Something directly behind my knee is swollen up, and I can neither stretch my leg out all the way nor bend it all the way.

Seems like it should be nothing, so I didn't actually want to bother anyone, but holy fuck it hurts and is inconvenient.

I dunno, that sounds pretty bad. I don't want to be alarmist, but you could have done something to your ACL or similar, which would be very bad news. Get that shit looked at as soon as possible, mate.

Your post sounds like a a bit of an emotional outpouring that probably deserves a more serious context than the Random Shit thread, but... is there no chance your girlfriend will be willing to move with you?

Yeah, I was hoping someone could tell me it was NOT my ACL, since that's what's giving me a bit of anxiety. If it's still fucked tomorrow, I'll either limp in to A&E or try my school's duty-nurse again.

I really didn't want to miss the opportunity to go to an event at Parliament

Hope you get it sorted out asap man. In the meantime, as hard as it might be, try to stay off of it as much as possible.

*edit: But make sure you still keep blood flowing in the area. Just don't aggravate it and make it worse, is what I'm saying lol

Yeah definitely doesn't sound like nothing. Try to keep your weight off it if you can, takei anti-inflammatories, and get in to see someone as soon as you can. Maybe not an emergency, but it certainly sounds like the kind of injury that warrants immediate assessment.

It's ok, was just some random thoughts. and nope, the girlfriend won't tag along.

It feels kind of tight today, with a small amount of pain, and I'm limping slightly, but it's vastly improved from yesterday. Trying to keep weight off it and not walk too much.

What does she do for a living? Some skeez working the Gap that won't follow her Dr. guy to a better country and better life sounds best suited for craigslist personals.
