I fainted at
I fainted at church the other day. I was sitting with my friend S, and her little sister. I felt super hot, so I took my jacket off. I felt my skin, and I was sweaty and trembling. My head pain was terrible, and I was pretty hungry. I just remember my vision getting fuzzy while I was kneeling, and then, I don't remember. I was told that I fell across S and onto her little sister's lap. S said I looked pale, but she didn't know what to do. About 15 seconds later, (this part I remember) I got up and sat down. S said, "Are you okay? You fell." And I was like, "Um, I don't think so." S's mom took me outside. And then I was fine. It was surreal.
Has anybuggy else fainted? This was my second time, but the first time, I don't remember going blank. This time, I had no idea what was going on. It was not fun. I don't recommend it. :S

Wow. That is surreal. I haven't fainted, but a couple times I've felt like I was about to. Like, for example, when I had to go to homeschool group on Friday, N (the guy I am in love with), well, he and his mom and three little brothers took me to homeschool group! I almost fainted, and I almost threw up. It was not good.

I forgot....I was in love with him, until Nutcracker. Now I like someone else. Percy Jackson says aaxu. Bless you, Percy Jackson! ;-)

You... forgot who you were currently in love with? Odd...

Aboy in my class, C (who is REALLY cute!!!!) faints at the sight of blood.
This is freaky because a girl at church on Sunday did the exact same thing.

One time when I was at my friend's youth group and we were all singing I felt like I was going to faint! I got really hot and it looked like there was a bunch of black dots whirling around in front of me and I felt super shakey and dizzy. After a while I was fine again, but it freaked me out! Oh, and that friend whose youth group I was at has fainted twice! When she got her ears peiced she said that it didn't hurt or anything (they used a numbing thing for her) and then she was standing at the counter and her mom said, "Sweetie, pay the man" and handed her the money and she thought, "Wow. Mom looks all rainbow-y" and fainted! She fell forwards and slammed into the counter and then that knocked her back into a display behind her! She thinks she must have been holding her breath. Then when she was at Target and had just gotten her flu shot she fainted again! She went over to look at nail polish (which was close to the place where they got the shots) while four held down her brother (9 year old) so he could get a shot and just fainted (and smacked into the floor really hard when she did)!! Her family does have a history of fainting, though . . .

WOW. The same thing happened to BOTH of my sisters, that when they got their ears pierced. (it was months apart from each other) They stepped out of the little kiosk in the middle of the mall and fainted dead away.
I fainted once when I was sick with a fever. It it a very surreal experience. It was just after watching a movie, and I had been lying on the couch for a long time in the same position. My mom and dad sent us upstairs, and I was REALLY slow getting up, because I felt tired and stuck to the seat.
Then my dad told me to hurry up, and so I got up, but when I was trying to get a glass for a drink of water I started feeling really dizzy. I must have been swaying because he was like,"Emily, are you okay?" So I leaned on the couch and said I was, but then I was lying on the floor and Daddy said he caught me. And he said I had been talking the whole time.

Yikes!!! I'm glad you recovered quickly!!!
I've never really fainted... but I've definitely felt like I would sometimes.
But, I did pass out when I was just about four days old, because it turns out I wasn't getting any food. I couldn't nurse because of my cleft palate. I very nearly did die. I'm super glad though that my parents were there when I blacked out. They rushed me to the hospital..... anyway, long story. But I wouldn't really count that as fainting, would you??

I nearly did, it was a long time ago.

ZMK has fainted 34 times this year! Our family has a long history of fainting, especially her. One time it happend while we were playing outside and then she fell over and cracked her scull. We were in the hospital for 3 days after that. One time we were in the hospital for 12 days because I used to have a twisted stomach and I threw up for ten days straight, and I didn't eat anything so they kept trying to get me to eat. Then I had surgey and now I can't throw up but when I have to I have to be hospitalized. Ugh...
Anyway I am glad you feel better!
Bye for now! ~~ZMK says hi~~

Now that I'm back from spring break, I can give you my oh-so-professional opinion. I think you Fainted. Aren't I good?
Now that I'm done with that, the same thing happened to me in fourth grade. No one's really sure what happened, and I was fine, but it was scary. The general concensus was that I had eaten too little protein for breakfast, but it's hard to say. Anyway, I had to say that, dunno why. . . .
Cheers and so on,
the long absent lavendershy

Wow... the same thing happened to me, over summer break a few years ago. I fainted at some video place, me believes it was Family Video, after getting ice cream. :P
Turned out not to be such a great day.

Ooh, not fun. The lucky thing for me was, that, most people who faint in church end up falling backwards and hitting their head on the pew, or forwards and doing the same thing and getting a concussion. I was extremely lucky and fell sideways, onto my friend's sister's lap. :)

Why, what else happened?
(March 25, 2010 - 4:00 pm)
Hmm? What do you mean, Brynne?
(March 28, 2010 - 9:10 pm)
I was talking to Lovely L., because I didn't think fainting could put a damper on her whole day, but I could be wrong.
