Why i've been MIA

Hey internet peoples, I realized that i've been MIA for the last little while so i'll fill you in about what's happened in my life.

So when I was sick that while ago, it turned out that I had pneumonia. Then, to top it all off, a little while ago I blacked out and had to go to the hospital!!!! fun adventures. I'll explain.

Me, Tara, and Ron decided to go swimming. We arrived at the pool and got changed and everything, then Ron and I waited in the pool until Tara, Being the slowpoke that she is at getting changed, waltzed over to us. We chatted for about  half an hour about random stuff like clubs, raving, and life in general, until we decided to go into the hot tub. We sat in the hot tub for 15 minutes before we decided that, again, we wanted to switch pools. I stood up slowly and rested against this half-wall thing in-between the hot tub and some showers when it started happening.

What I remember is that, I suddenly had tunnel vision,  and then everything went black, then suddenly everything was sideways, people were going "WOAH!!!" in worried and frantic voices, then I remember feeling myself hit the water. Suddenly I was sitting on the stairs with people like "OMG ARE YOU OK?!" and i was like "of course i am, why wouldn't I be?" because I didn't actually remember what happened until later, so i was just confused as to how I got on the steps.

A couple seconds later a lifeguard rushed over with an oxygen tank and made me lean against the wall while she took down information about me. It was all very frustrating because she wanted me to tell her things but keep the mask on, which was very hard to do. Here's how it went.

Lifeguard: "so what's your name?"
Me: *removes air mask* "it's Ja-"
Lifeguard: "please sir, keep the mask on"
Me: "mhf mmffffhhh"
Lifeguard: "I'm sorry what?"
Me: *takes off mask again* "I said, it's jack"
Lifeguard: "sir, I asked you to please keep the mask on. don't take it off"

That continued for ab out 10 minutes before I turned to Tara, took off the mask, and said

"Tara, you answer the stupid questions.I'm tired of arguing with the lifeguard, and Ron isn't much help hitting on the other lifeguard"

You see, Ron hits on just about everyone. Guys and girls alike. So this wasn't abnormal. Although, I don't think he would have been much help anyways considering he doesn't really know much of the information about me that they were asking for.

They called my parents and they freaked out ans stuff, then they were forced to take me to the hospital, only to wait for three or fourish hours to take blood tests, and electrocardiogram, and x-rays, only to tell me that i was completely fine and could go home. The only information that they gave me other than that I was completely fine (which was wrong, by the by. When I fell, I landed on the corner of the hot tub with my tailbone, then fell on some lady. good times. Then i decided to go to gymnastics two days later!! so painful...) and that it most likely happened because i'm in recovery from pneumonia.

It was a...weird experience...to say the least. I wouldn't suggest blacking out anytime soon. Hopefully i'll be able to post more (and a lot of intresting stuff happens really soon!!) well bye internetarians!!!!!!!!
