I Finished No Straight Roads! Wooooot!
January 11, 2024, Oh and happy new year!This post is a work in progress. Come again later.
Psst, the text below is a spoiler for NSR! Don't hover your cursor over the purple box if you haven't finished the game!I loved that the absolute peak of the game's lore was nearing the end, and it's like the lore is a clearly unfinished puzzle, but I was having fun because the boss fights were all unique yet consistent.
WAS.
Until Kliff shows his true MANIAC self, and launches the NSR satellite right into the towers, leaving BBJ and Tatiana 15 minutes to reclaim the districts, escort all personnel out of the building, in order to undo this.
I was already suspicious of Kliff from the start. When he texted BBJ through May's number and said to meet up, I was like "HOW DID HE GET MAY'S NUMBER????? MAYDAY NEVER TOLD HER NUMBER???? WHY IS HE TEXTING HER???? I BET HE'S GONNA BE A VILLAIN!!!!!" And I was right.... Well, he was a supporting character who's intentions were shown at the end--I don't know if he counts as 100% villain, but I don't like him either way.
Sorry to, uh, all the Kliff fans out there--if there are any. It looked like he was being generous, pure-intentioned, giving details about the NSR artists to Bunk Bed Junction and stuff, but he wanted to take down NSR, not for BBJ or anyone else's gain, but for his own. and also hes a ginger
Like Tatiana said, BBJ could've let Kliff crash the NSR satellite into the NSR tower, but the duo teamed up with NSR. The ending felt like all the pieces of the puzzle were quickly and meticulously arranged, and shoved in your face. Oh, and we can't forget the BIG plot twist: Tatiana IS Kul Fyra. THE Kul Fyra. That's what Kliff meant when he said that if you remind Tatiana of her past, that'll be enough to take her down. She was in The Goolings, what Bunk Bed Junction was inspired by, but it was so chaotic that they disbanded and Tatiana became the CEO of No Straight Roads, a record label(?) for EDM music. Before, The Goolings took over Vinyl City. Then, EDM took over. Tatiana liked EDM because it was "orderly".
I got a medal, cool!
December 6, 2024I got first place at an English/grammar event at my school--I got a first place medal and a new friend/acquaintance! I honestly thought I would get last place, or no medal at all, but woah! I was wrong!
Fell on the sidewalk. Bleh.
December 4, 2024Yesterday, I was on my way to school in my P.E. uniform, and my grey/purple glittery converse shoes.
Little did I know, the outsoles of my shoes are flatter than construction paper, and it rained in the early morning, making the ground slippery.
Suddenly, I slid down a ramp and fell on my TAILBONE. THAT'D ALREADY BEEN DISLOCATED (as mentioned in one of my previous blog posts). Somehow my legs were also scratched, and they hurt SO bad.
Once I got to class, I wrapped some gauze around the scratch, and put bandaids on the tiny scratches on my knee. My head started hurting for no reason too?? So I went down to the clinic and stayed there for a while. That wasn't the first, and probably not the last time I'd be at the clinic.
I'm back!
December 4, 2024Sorry for not posting 'ere... I was busy with both school AND trying to make my site look better. I've given up on the latter, so this'll be staying, I guess!

The story of how I dislocated my tailbone....
November 3, 2024
THIS ARTICLE / BLOG POST IS A WORK IN PROGRESS!
I dislocate my bones a lot, and I mean a LOT. ever since the fifth grade it's been a normal occurrence for me.
Usually, I'd dislocate my wrist, shoulder, or knee, and it'd just go back into place by itself after a few hours. This, though, was the final nail in the casket.
I'll tell you how it all started..
It was about last Tuesday, that morning I was at school, in P.E. class. Like usual, I was in my P.E. uniform, and all the chairs were moved to the corners of the classroom, since we didn't have a P.E. classroom.
The class was instructed to move into four single-file lines. I went to the back of a line where Mae was, because if I was going to suffer then I could at least suffer with a friend.
We weren't gonna do anything sportsy, just some exercises. Side lunges, squats, stuff like that.
...For 30 minutes with 1 minute breaks.
I thought it was fun at first, but ten minutes in and my backside suddenly hurts, and that's probably the most physical pain I've felt in my LIFE. And I'm talking to Mae like "MY BACKSIDE HURTS YOWCH." then I realise:
That's not my backside, it's my TAILBONE.
and it's been DISLOCATED.
But I carry on with the exercises, even though every squat the pain got WORSE. I completely forgot about it for the rest of the day, because I had school. I have better things to do than worrying about my tailbone after all!
Then when I get home, I usually study or use this site to practice my coding skillz. So, I sit down. All the time. Not only that, I sit using my tailbone.
So when I get up to use the bathroom, pet my cat, or get some water with ice- AAAAAAAGHHHH THE AGONY. MY TAILBONE!!!!
After sitting on my tailbone, feeling the absolute AGONY when I get up from my seat, and repeating the cycle for about a week, I had a plan.
I tried sitting on a donut cushion so everything but my tailbone was under pressure, nope, didn't work! My tailbone STILL hurt. So, I sat criss cross apple sauce, but with one leg up so I didn't rely on my tailbone to balance while sitting.
And imagine the RELIEF I felt when it didn't hurt to get up anymore, after sitting like that for a few days. 
I was FREE! MY TAILBONE WAS FREE!!!!
it still hurt when i layed on my back to sleep yowchie. So I layed on my side or stomach. And everything was just about better! Wooo!!
