Welcome to blog spot....

After reading other peoples blogs, i decided that maybe this may be the best way for me to write about my thoughts and expiriences that happen in the coming months.
You see to understand what i will proberly blog about, you'd have to know a little bit about me:

- Im a 22 year old student.
- I spend half of my week in the country, and the other half back in melbourne.
- I started uni in 2006, yet in 2009 i am a first year physical and health education student.
- I am vain enough that i wont wear the same thing twice with the same group of people when i go out.
- I love my friends.
- I love taking photos when im out, and i like the fact that i seem to have a photogenic face.
- I love exercise but cant often do it.
- I dont like beer, cake, donuts or chocolate.
- I have a weekness for anything made by wonka confectionary.
- I am blonde and blue eyed.
- My life revolves around my hip.
- The last 3 years have been the hardest time of my life and it often feels like it will never end.
- My dad passed away from cancer on the same day as my first hip operation.

Now to explain what i will mostly be blogging about. My hip. You see, i had an accident while on a uni outdoor ed camp and i dislocated my right knee, and somehow shove my left femur (leg bone) into my pelvis. Now although i didn't break any bones, i managed to successfully ruin my life from then on... To create a very long story into a short one, this hip injury was very difficult to diagnose, and after almost a month in hospital being poked and prodded, the doctors decided that i had ripped the labrum (hip cartilage) in half. This then sent me to have a private surgeon perform an operation where he put two pins and 6 titanium tacks in my hip joint. To shorten this story even further, in under 2 years I've had 3 surgery's in total on my left hip, for a second tear and boney growth within the joint/build up of scar tissue and now I suffer chronic pain.

Thats me and hopefully it will give you a basis of why i am about to start blogging about whats happening now. I think it may help me get out the frustration of pain, and doctors etc.

thats my first post and not my last.
