Read (and see pictures!) Below about How I Actually Lost My Fingertips...

Yep. That's me.

Before I tell you how I lost my fingertips, help me out and vote for an essay I wrote about losing my fingertips. 

Your destiny is to vote for my essay in that essay competition. Again, the essay is about how I persevered through losing my fingertips in that snow-blower accident when I was 16 (I'm now a college freshman).

I need these votes desperately. If I can get to 10,000 and beat the person in 1st place, I have a shot at winning the $5000 in scholarship money-which I need very badly to pay for my ridiculously priced private liberal arts college tuition.

So please, follow this link and vote for my essay. There is no registration, no hassle. If ya'll help me out, I will be eternally grateful. Tell all your friends about it! Send them the Youtube video and the link on this page below! Make it viral. Thank you. And I hope you enjoyed the video.

Alright, alright, alright. Quit badgering me! I'll tell you now how I lost my fingertips. 

I lost them in a crazy snowblower accident a few years ago involving Christmas Break, wisdom teeth removal, heavy doses of Vicodin, being sick of sitting around doing nothing, and not very well thought out snow-blowing. That's the true story. It wasn't pretty and I would not recommend it.

It was seriously the most ridiculous thing that has ever happened to me in my life. Looking down at my fingertips and the little stumps of flesh where my fingertips were seconds before was a crazy experience. If you're brave, scroll down a little more to see picture of when I got to see them for the first time after I got the bandages off. Be warned: pretty gross if you're faint of heart and all that.

Again, yeah, that's really me. You can even see the nub finger pointing into yonder distance if you look closely enough.

Scroll down more.

A little more.

This is seriously for your own good....

Alright....brace yourself.....

You made it! Here's my fingers! Check 'em out! They're all healed and nice now. They weren't looking too good back then though....

Anyways, thanks for everything. I hope you voted for my essay...if you didn't, click on that link and vote for it! I hope you feel guilty for not voting in the first place.....
