So, I wake up this morning to find out there's no school on account of 8" of snow covering my city. Great right? Let's go back to last night..... I have unbelieveable pain in my right ear. I didn't wanna do anything except lay around, which I did. I went to bed, I woke up 4 times at night because the pain in my ear. In each of my 4 dreams I was playing MoH: H2 which was weird. But that's besides the point. I get out of my bed and walk around. Go to my couch flip on the Directtv and (by this time it's about 3:10 a.m.) and whatdayaknow? HBO was the last channel someone in my family visited. Now, this is HBO at night and when i flipped on TV there was some killer porn on, nothing I haven't seen in real life before 8th grade so wasn't too fascinated. Laughed a little bit, changed the channel. Okay, back to sleep.

*Take caution before reading this section, some nasty stuff man.*

Woke up this morning stoked that there was no school. But this pain in my right ear! Ah, it feels like glass is in my ear! I ignore it for a little while, go on the computer. I feel something itching and tickling in my ear so I stick my finger in it to itch it. Pull out my finger and there was all kinds of nasty liquid on my finder. After I saw this, I ran and took a shower. Came out, cleaned my ears like usual. Pull out the Q-tip and look at it. Blood! And some other liquid stuff! Damn I thought to myself.

So, I go back on the computer and look up why my ear is draining. What came up was that I have a punctured eardrum. I read the sympthoms and causes. All the sympthoms were correct: ringing in my ear, terrible pains, leaking of blood and pus. Next, I went to the causes. None of these causes applied to me. They said people with a punctured ear drum have probably got smacked in the head or fell while water skiing. They said it can heal itself in 2 months or less, but the pain and leaking should die down.

Then, I came down to the last cause on the page. It said, "Sticking a cotton swab up your ear too far." I immadetly know that was my problem. After I take a shower, I usualy stick the cotton swab up my ear canal cause it makes me feel more clean and know I'm not walking around with funk in my ear.

Lesson learned here: Listen to the box of cotton swabs when it says, "Go around the outside of the ear rather then going into the ear canal because this can cause severe injury."

-Oh and on a side note, I'm still in huge pain at the moment.
