Needles

Why needles? Cause I got poked today by one. Went for the northern hemisphere seasonal flu vaccination today. It was an intramuscular injection and yet there was blood. Lots of blood. Intramuscular injections should not result in a lot of blood and haematoma formation unless you are thrombocytopenic. At least there wasn't any haematoma in my case, but still, a lot of blood. Perhaps the person accidentally pierced a vein or two in the process instead of the normal capillaries, hence resulting in the gush. Oh well.

I also had a short experience, a couple of hours, at the A&E side today. Having to work all alone most of the time ain't easy. And having no one to talk to or consult with just makes it worst. That perhaps is one of the good points of working at a hospital. At least, you'll have a lot of other people to talk to, and I'm not referring to the patients. Just not my cup of tea to hang around alone the whole day, unless I'm chilling out at home - that's another story altogether.

久しぶりに英語で書いた。ずっとずっと長い間何を書くのかを悩んでる。今日はちょっとしたことがあったからやっと書くことができた。いいね。

えっと実はまだ話したいことがあるけどなんか忘れちゃったみたい・・・

あぁ！そうだ！ずっといえたくていえなかったことがやっと今日で言えた。うれしいな。相手もちゃんとわかってくれた。これでちょっとよくなるのかな、今後のこと。だったらいい。
