Injury

Besides the monthly affair "bleeding", this is the first time i seen myself gushing out so much blood.

The glass pipette pierce into my middle finger during the lab session. Blame on my carelessness, blame on the way the pipette were placed.. haix... Right after it pierce through my finger, i had no choice but to pull it out. I guess it was quite a logical but wrong decision, because blood started gushing out like there is no tomorrow. It's like a water hose, blood just flow out so "smoothly and quickly".

I was surprised that it wasn't pain when i saw blood gushing out. Nevertheless, i guess the uncontrollable flowing of blood shocked my 2 lab partners and the whole lab. Anyway i messed up the whole place with my blood (Thanks those who clean up my blood). It start to got swollen and numb when they washed with some saline (?) or NaCl (?) solution. I started to also got worried when they showed me the glass pipette and announcing that the glass was broken. Crap, that just means the broken glass was probably inside my skin... argh

I was brought to the clinic, with the accompaniment of the lab manager. The queue was long.. super long. Wonder why i wasn't give priority queue =.=

Anyway my finger is now slightly swollen, my already fat fingers now officially become "pig" fingers. Haix...

Thanks William and my lab partners for your accompany and concern =) appreciated.
