Welcome to my blog. I post on this, roughly once a week (it does vary). I sustained a 'Traumatic Acquired Brain Injury', and a six month coma from a 'road traffic accident' whilst cycling, in October 2006. I spent the following 4 years (22-26yrs old), in a combination of hospitals and rehabilitation homes. Now, I have been living independently in Surbiton, England since October 2010. This blog begun life in December 2010, as i realised that there are many people worldwide that i want to share experiences with. I know that, as a wheelchair user, I am obviously not as mobile as i wish, so, use the internet to connect to you. I enjoy letting my thoughts represent through type. I type honestly. As numerous readers, as well as email recipients, will understand, I find typing to be very therapeutic. Thank you :)

expect nothing (edited)

This blog post is typed 'semi-live' again. I use this term to explain that I type this post in the outside world(usually a cafe), but I am using and incorporating notes that I have made throughout this past week.

Notes...

I have stopped attempting to flirt with random strangers
It hurts me to realise this


Hehe, hmmm. The above note helps explain dependency on coffee. This can worry me, but I am content, as coffee's positives strongly outweigh its negatives!

I believe in fate, I have no say. 
I condense much of the mentality, on which I rely, into five words.

Don't expect anything. Fate rules.

'You look like you've been sitting in the sun’ 
A comment regularly received, earlier this week. Hmmm, at first, this irritated me, but soon I realised that I was no more red than usual, and the commentator was actually using it to defend themselves. It seems a strange thing to say to someone who is forced to sit in a wheelchair! Ah well. Ignore.

An artist that I discovered this week, my collection welcomes it's solo female deep, dark, and depressing sound. It's good, very good.


Ok, one week to go...
I supplied a fixture schedule last week, but hmmm Kick-Off times?...
BST... 

5pm - Costa Rica v England 24th June
8pm - Uruguay v England 19th June
9pm
11pm - England v Italy 14th June
There will be more, hopefully!
I have been forced to live with a very very laid-back attitude. I live for the moment, now. One cannot accurately live a designed life. Shit happens. We must learn to tackle problems face-on.

I return home to add pictures, and publish...
