- 2:24:48 - Bloody Eye Story: She sneezed so hard that she popped a blood vessel in her eye before. It can happen especially when you sneeze multiple times in a row.
If you cry very hard you can break teeny tiny capillaries underneath your eye. Unfortunately, she’s speaking from experience. She has done that before. You can break capillaries underneath and in your eye. If you sneeze you can burst a blood vessel in your eye and it will bleed into the white part of your eye (called the sclera). [84]
- 2:11:58 - Summer Slide Time Story: Gura used to go down the slides and it burned her butt before. She had slid down a metal slide in the summer and burned her butt. “A metal slide in the summer will burn off 4 layers of your epidermis.” - Gura's knowledge. [104]
- 38:06 - Roller Coaster Story: Gura needs a lot of pushing to get on the roller coaster but once she gets on, she has fun. One time she was on a roller coaster in which it pulls you back like a rubber band. When you get pulled back, because of the pressure, you won’t be able to breathe in when it lets you go so you need to take a breath before it goes. She didn’t know about it so when it happened, she started panicking because she couldn't breathe and it was dark and her eyes were closed. It was only for a few seconds but it felt like a really long time. [105]
- 1:48:05 - Tinfoil hat story #1 about Sick Medicine and Hallucinations: One time, she took a Night-Time Alka-Seltzer Plus and thought she saw a UFO. She was sick and she took an Alka-Seltzer Night-Time Plus. She doesn’t know what’s in them. She at first doesn’t remember anything and then she remembers waking up and seeing pink and orange lights outside her window. It was silent and big. So her brain initially thought it was an airplane. But then she thought about it so if it was an airplane, she would be able to hear it if it was that big. If it was that big, she would be able to see and make out the lights and all that but she couldn’t hear anything. There was absolute fear inside of her because she didn’t know what she was looking at. Too late, but she eventually got up to go see and try to track it. It was gone. It scared her so bad. She’s not making this up. It scared her really bad. She hasn’t seen anything since. It’s one of those things she doesn’t know what it could be. It could have been a hallucination from the medicine because that stuff is really strong and it works really well on her. It was probably a hallucination and she wonders if it was a side effect. It was so long ago though. It was a couple of years ago. If she sees another UFO, she’ll tweet about it after she tells Ame. She thinks Ame would like that. Ame would be like “Dude! Dude, no way dude!” #AmeSame
- (2:08:35) - A superchat from Order of Dusk told her that it could have been sleep paralysis and Gura said it would make perfect sense because she has talked about her weird sleep paralysis moments before. She was awake and looking at the UFO but she couldn’t get up. She could have gotten sleep paralysis from the Alka-Seltzer. She’s convinced that it was sleep paralysis now. [87]
- 1:52:00 - Tinfoil Hat Story #2 about Weird Knee Bruises: She’s gonna sound crazy but there was a time where she had really weird bruises on her knee. Really, really weird bruises that were the size of her fingertips. They were very perfect circles and they were pretty small. She thinks there were 2 perfectly circular fingertip sized bruises on her knee. She even took pictures of it. She remembers that she was like “What in the hell is that!?” She tried thinking what could have caused it. She bruises very easily and wondered why a vampire would bite her on the knee. It was too big to be a spider bite because it was the size of her fingertips. She got it when she was asleep and there was nothing in her bed that could have caused those exact bruises. It couldn’t have been her because she keeps her fingernails (cut/short is implied) and she would have felt it or something. She doesn’t know. It was really weird so of course her brain was like “I know I was probed by an alien.” She’s joking of course but it makes you wonder about stuff. [87]
- 1:54:41 - Tinfoil Hat Story #3 Fiberglass Foot: This one is pretty simple. She was walking around barefoot as you do. She likes to walk around barefoot so she’s bound to get things stuck in her feet like splinters and stuff like that. Her feet started hurting so she sat down, took a look at it, and tried to figure out what was in her foot. There was this bump. She's gonna sound really crazy. She had to get tweezers to pull this thing out of the foot. She doesn’t remember where it was on her foot. She pulled it out and it looked like a fiber. She remembers thinking it looked like yarn. She thinks it was both blue and red. She was really confused on what it was. It could have been fiberglass but she doesn’t know where it would have been from. It’s definitely not an ingrown hair!! Because it was red and blue. Then she thought it could maybe have been a carpet but how would a carpet go in her foot and be so deeply embedded in her foot like that. It was pretty deep and she had to get tweezers to dig/coax it out. She thought fiberglass was clear, like the stuff she gets in her hand, and couldn’t be colored but it would make perfect sense. She always thought fiberglass was the invisible stuff you get in your hands but fiberglass can be colored. She guesses that would make sense since if she used to get it in her hands, it would make sense that she would get it in her foot. She doesn’t remember it hurting. It was uncomfortable and it wasn’t like excruciating pain or anything. It was “Ow, there’s something in my foot and I need to take it out.” [87]
- 2:49:20 - Bad childhood memory Story: She used to keep praying mantises, water bugs, and other types of bugs as pets. It’s not the worst childhood memory but a bad memory was that one time, her water bug bit her. One of her favorite praying mantis, named Sarah or something, laid its eggs and then it died. She found it underneath its egg sac all curled up or something. It left its egg sac behind. Gura finds praying mantis pretty cool and kind of freaky. [87]
- 17:55 - Foot bruise story with Mommy Shark: Her phone fell, corner-side down, onto the same exact spot in which an ipad fell on her foot so she now (11/29/2020) has a humongous bruise in the same spot. Previously, an ipad fell a long way down onto her foot and she was so certain she broke or cracked some kind of bone because her entire foot got swollen. She told mom, “Mommy, I think I broke my foot.” But her mom said that she’s fine and just to put some ice or a pack of peas on it. However, Gura doubted that since she couldn’t move her toes. [100]
- 36:05 - Doctor Warns against Energetic Mornings Story: Her doctor said not to jump out of bed anymore in the mornings because she would hop out of bed and faint. One time she hopped out of bed too quickly, went to another room, fainted, and fell backwards onto a ladder and an air conditioning unit. She bruised her back really badly and hit her head really hard. It could have been really, really, bad. Her doctor told her to not do that anymore so she has to get out of bed slowly now. She has to sit up, wait 20 minutes, swing her feet off the bed, wait another 20 minutes, and then stand up, wait 3 minutes, and then she goes. When she says she’s good at jumping out of bed, what she means is that her brain likes to jump out of bed but she physically should not anymore. It could be iron deficiency.
- She also faints in the bathtub and in the shower. You know what they say, you gotta eat your spinach to grow up big and strong. It could be low blood pressure. When you’re laying in bed, all the blood pools and when you do something drastic, your body has to catch up and the blood has to recirculate throughout your entire body. Sometimes the blood doesn’t go as fast as the Gura shark goes and so she passes out.
- She fell asleep on her arm and she lifted it up but she couldn’t feel it. It’s like pins and needles but she never got the pins and needles. [74]
- 1:26:20-1:32:35 - Spooky Story that still makes her scared to this day: Gura was upstairs in a 2 story house. There are 2 rooms upstairs and they are across from one another. Her family of 4 was in the house: Gura, a sibling (a brother), and mommy and daddy shark. The other 3 people were downstairs while Gura was upstairs alone. She was in one room and the room across from her was dark. It was nighttime. Inside the dark room is a drum stool. Drum stools are usually heavy chairs made of metal like steel or something else. Every time you sit on it, it would make a rreee sound and every time you turn it makes an errk errk errk sound. So you know when someone was sitting on it. Gura went to go downstairs and she heard the chair make a noise like someone was sitting on it and thought it was her sibling, sitting and spinning in his chair. As she went downstairs, she passed by another room and saw her sibling in the corner of her eye. She felt her stomach drop, her heart raced, and she got cold and clammy. If he's there, what’s up there? There’s nothing else that could have made that noise since you have to put weight on the chair for it to make noise. She doesn’t have any pets so it couldn’t have been an animal. It couldn’t have been the wind because it’s a heavy chair. That’s her only ghost story to tell. Gura let it slip twice that her sibling is male, not confirmed if older or younger. [91]
- 2:43:00 - Bike Story: Gura saw people riding bikes with no hands and wanted to do the same. She got to an okay speed and tested one handed riding with left and right hands each. When she let go with both hands, her steering did a 180, and she went up and over. She did a somersault and landed on the pavement. She now keeps both hands on the handles. Thankfully she was wearing her helmet. [106]
- 2:07:55 - Bowling Story: Gura went bowling and she went to throw the ball. She had long fingernails and she slipped. Her hand popped out of the bowling ball and her thumb went straight down into her fingers. [63]
