Well goddamn, that was dramatic. When I'm gone, I don't want people digging this up and thinking I'm some teenage tumblrina that goes so deep that her metaphors start breaking up before they begin. Who also happens to have cancer. Which is practically who I am anyways, which I have no denying. Next I'll be saying that I love Uggs and Starbucks. Which is false. Coffee's great though. The lives of people like me usually, morbidly do not last very long. I take pride in wasting what could possibly be the last few years of my life drinking crappy coffee from the supermarket and spending my day inside doing practically nothing and reading and watching Netflix and not going to school. I got pulled out because the doctors think I'm going to bite the dust in a few years. I was diagnosed with this shitty shit blood cancer called hairy cell leukemia. This disease is so shit it doesn't even have 'cancer' in its name even though it is technically cancer. Usually you have a 96% chance if living up to ten years after diagnosis, but in my case, it's more severe, which make it even more shit because it's supposed to be rare. I got diagnosed 3 years ago when I was 13. I'm supposed to be dead by now, but the doctors did some cancer magic and extended my life for a questionable few years. So I get to live. At least for a while. With the side effect of my living being cancer. And my living being the side effect of dying. I like to think myself as a side effect as well. What happens when nature screws you up. With uncurable cancer. Dying is a side effect of that uncurable cancer. Me living right now is a side effect of dying. My cancer is a side effect of nature failing to mutate.
Everything just eventually spirals down to being a side effect.

FanfictionAfter reading The Fault in our Stars, I felt like i had to read AIA. Was mortified to find out it didn't exist. So, I set off to write my own. It may not be the best, but I hope you enjoy my bad writing. Thanks to John Green, Gus Waters, and Hazel...
