People around town, and in my school considered me a "mainstream emo" for quite a while (Maybe they still do?). All this just because I had a 4 and a half inch scar on my wrist. They all just guessed I was some cutter, or something. I even had some weird lady if I needed emotional help!

This just goes to show how loosely, the term "emo" is used now. I am definitley not an emo.

Anyway, I'm guessing your all wondering how I got the above mentioned scar.

Quite, a weird story having to do with arthritis! In 2004 after a very long gaming session my left wrist started to recieve sharp pains. After a month and a half I finally decided to go to the doctor about it. This part makes me which we had better qualified doctors. He told me that I had just sprained my wrist, and to take some advil. Six months passed, and I went to the doctor again. (This time a replacement while, the other was on vacation) He was smart enough to get it x-rayed. Which showed that one of my bones was deteriorating. This was known as Kienbock's Disease, a form of arthritis.

Since I had waited so long before getting it correctly examined I needed to get it fixed quickly. I was reffered to Dr. Gropper.

His waiting list was usually between one and a half years to two years, luckily he considered my wrist a top priority and I got in within a month.

After a four hour surgery on my wrist, (3mm taken off the bone to relieve the stress on the fucked up one, and a metal plate with 5 screws) 15 stitches, and two months of bandages and casts I was finally ready to get the cast off, and Physio to start. I was schedueled 4 months of it but luckily only needed a week due to my awesome super-strength gamer hands.

The moral of that story is... Don't get in any car crashes. That's the main 'cause of this problemWell, any extreme impact might cause it. I happened to get it out of the blue though. Another lucky thing is that this disease doesn't spread, and it isn't hereditary. So I won't need a trip down to the hospital any time soon.

Shortened version - I got surgery, got a scar, people called me emo.

EDIT - The weirdest thing? I'm 15. How the fuck does a 15 year old get arthritis?
