Yah yah it's all my fault kay? All my fault. =)Anyway, skipped chinese remedial to go buy books. Chap 1 & 2 of DeathNote, and that Naruto book I wanted. *throws head back and laughs evillyyy.
Nothing much else.. Noel reminded me of something.

drowning, burning and freezing to death = worse ever
Now that I think about it, I actually have almost drowned once.
I remember I was in some other country for holiday with my family, and I was only a younger child then. But still, I was pretty okay with water and could hold breaths for over 30 seconds a time.
We waded over to the wave pool, and as the "rain" and "waves" started coming in, there was much excitement, and since I was only a kid, I felt the float slipping off me, because it was much too big. Before I knew it, I started drifting away from my parents, due to my kicking and attempting to climb higher on the float. I had no water-wings, float or whatever, because my parents were able to see where I was going, and they probably thought I was having fun..
Until I slipped into the water, and was already in the deep side of the pool where it would be around 1.7m deep. (Even if I was to go there now, I still might drown since it's 15 cm over my head v_v)
Anyway, I remembered that when/if you are drowning and have no strength to kick up, just hold your breath and let yourself float down, to kick yourself back up later. When I did so, and my foot touched the ground, I felt a sharp pain on my foot, and realised that it was sharp rocks, and it hurt really bad - so letting myself kick back up was not an option.
Now was the time to really panic. I had no goggles on, and when I opened my eyes, everything was murky and a blur. I stretched out my arm in attempt to catch anyone's leg, but I was probably just wasting my energy. Finally, before I gave up, I was wondering if I would die at this age, and asked God why he wanted me up there so fast. Just then, I felt hands grip around my elbow and pull me upwards.
Haha, Daddy finally found me.
*heaves sigh of relief* Yeah, if it wasn't for him, I don't think I would've ever lived to this day. Err, or maybe to some people the idea of my exsistance would be disastrous, and I would've been better off dead. Right?
