GUESS WHO'S ON CRUTCHES!  This bitch.

Want to hear the story of how I injured my innocent knee?

So, I left school half an hour early to get to my orthodontist appointment  (getting my braces tightened) and my mum takes me shopping after that since there's no point of going back to school with only 5 minutes left of it.

We head to Debenhams to buy some clothes and I go check out the new pajamas while my mum buys stuff for my younger siblings.

Here's where the "accident" happens.

I'm casually stood still when, all of a sudden, my right knee stops functioning for no apparent reaction. I fall to the floor and my first reaction is "That was awkward, hope no one saw that." And then I register the pain and silently begin sobbing because holy shindig that hurt.

No one was around and my mum was on the other side of the floor so I had to limp all the way to her, dragging my foot and using everything around me to support my weight.

Finally get to my mum who immediately calls over a member of staff. Can I just say that this woman was smiling when she came over, I was silently crying and she's just giving us a look as though she's watching a soap opera.

Time skip to after she calls the shop's first aiders who call the paramedics who then call the ambulance. The ride in the ambulance was incredibly awkward because the people were trying to make conversation and I was just awkwardly lying on the bed and wincing every so often from pain.

We get to the A&E section and all the old people there are just giving me looks and trying to figure out what's wrong with me. The nurses were doing that too.

Soon I was taken to see someone and it was just something wrong with my cartilage. They think I accidentally moved it.

And that's it really. Nothing too exciting just painfully awkwardly because of all the questions and death glares.

Moral of the story: old people are judgemental.

And don't stand still
