i hate that nothing’s accessible in my $#@@# country… not even my mom’s house so i can’t go up there unless i walk… and i can’t do that right now… can’t wear my freaking leg without hurting myself even more… even the sports association for the disabled here (they call themself “Challenges”) don’t know crap about accessibility. oh yea, FMySCI and my AKA.

I’m pretty sure I would have been a dancer. My body naturally moves to music. My mother was a classical Indian dancer. If not, I would have been a musician because there is constantly an unwritten symphony running through my mind. My dad was once a lover of music, a poet. I know I would have been that person who looked you in the eye as I walked by you in the street, and smiled. Instead, I wheel down the sidewalk, with my head down, my dreams dashed. After all, a crippled dancer is only a sideshow freak; being a struggling musician, as idealistic as it sounds, won’t pay my medical bills, and I’ll avoid your gaze because I’d rather not catch your eye and see that look of pity, or curiosity as to how I became this anomaly on wheels.

FMySCI for stealing my dreams for the future.

My live-in boyfriend breaking up with me ecause he feels “trapped!” I yelled at him that he has no idea what trapped is. Try being in bed and not even being able to sit up on your elbows nevermind getting yourself out of bed to, God forbid, escape a fire! Or… not being able to feel or move 80% of your body. Try that kind of trapped on for size!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FMySCI.
