Out of Commission

I had all these wonderful wedding-related plans this weekend, from trying on dresses and an informal food tasting at Arcadian court, to showing my mom-to-be and sis-to-be the venue. However, someone (up above) made different plans for me.

On Wednesday evening, as I was playing defense during an Ultimate game, I attempted to block a guy from catching the disc (and did!) but landed awkwardly. My knee twisted and I heard a pop! Fortunately, the field was close to home so my parents were able to get me in 10 minutes and brought me to the hospital. The doctors believe it is a tear in my medial meniscus but I'll have to be reassess on Tuesday, once the swelling goes down.

Holy fat (tanned) knee Batman!

For now, I am in a knee brace, with crutches, and in some pain =( I'm glad I didn't break any bones but I can't help but be scared... I can't walk at all right now and am frustrated that I cannot do everyday things.

My new fashion accessories

I'm just sooooooo lucky I have my mom and dad, and Chris to take care of me. And Jeff to talk me through it over Skype. And Andrea for sending me beautiful flowers. And Maygan for all the cheer. And my team for their sweetness. And I'm grateful for everyone's well wishes!

I'm optimistic that I'll recover quickly... I just need to give my body rest. I'll also use this as an opportunity to slow down. Spend more time on thesis, perhaps? =)
