I was just SAVED from a RIVER by an un-sung hero!
15 years ago
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF NIBBLER: Me and
went tubing down a river with three friends, Trissana, Jessica, and Collin, in a sense. You see, there was an island that split the river off into two and we didn't know which way to go. Collin was pointing on way (we couldn't here eachother over the rapids), but they went another. So me and
ended up stranded on the island from the plug in our tube popping open and filling with water. And as the cruelty of fate and the god of some reliion's boredom, we lost the tube after I finally blew it up again. We wandered around the island to make sure it was actually that, while I was hyperventilating and crying and
was in shock. After I found a pink jumprope, we sat on a clump of dirt and rocks in the middle of the calmest part of the river and out in the open, singing and sharing riddles for an hour. There was a noise and a Bluejay flew by, so
told me that she once heard Bluejays were good luck. And about 5 minutes later, a tall, chubby, grew-up-on-a-farm-and-live-in-the-woods fellow Canadian came to save us. He swam through the rapids and brought
to the shore then did the same with me. I managed to get him to tell us his name. So, I'll never be able to forget Howard. The Search-and-Rescue and police came, asked as questions, then finally drove us home.
The whole point of me sharing this is not only because it was a terrifying and extreme experience, but also as a sort of a way to say thanks to Howard who was the only person who did the real saving. Thanks to Howard and all the other unsung heros of this world!

WHY DID'NT YOU INVITE ME????
i go tubing all the time it wouldnt have been THAT hard to suggest it, its obvious you didn't WANT me to go.
And i wouldnt have cared if it was 'scary' because i would have just try'ed swimming or something, im a strong swimmer. Or even carry my phone in 6 ziplock bags >.>;; And a backpack
So fuck you guys.
so why emily, didnt you invite me? did you not want me to come, or do you just not want me to be around anymore?
Beleive me, the fact that you don't care what happen hurts a thousand times more than us forgetting to invite you. (hell, you know I forget things that I've said not even 30 seconds after I've said it.)
You were almost swept downa river becuase you dont know SQUAT about tubing, How could you lose a tub on an island anyway, you KEEP HOLD OF IT ofor one AND KEEP A STICK WITH YOU TO HOLD ONTO ROCKS.
and those are just somethings. fuck if i had come you idiots wouldnt have ruined the trip for yourselves
And frankly, I didn't think of inviting you at the start because you pretty much hate every one that invited me to come. If I ever decide to go tubing again, you would be the first person I would want with me, you know. It's nothing personal... maybe eventually you'll understand that, but in the mean time, just be greatful me and Danielle are OK. Believe what you want.
i guess you just dont know me.
read that. I'm mad at you guys
