Topic: Injury...
Yesterday I went helping at a party, but I was somewhat unlucky...
It was a very crowded party, and I was helping at serving drinks. At a given moment I was taking a new bottle of cola out of a fridge, and while doing so I managed to get stuck with the top of my hand into a sharp steel border. I thought it was just a cut, so continued for a couple of minutes, but the bleeding did not stop. Apparently it went at least 4mms deep, perhaps deeper. The advantage is that it's just a cut and therefore I did not lose a large chunk of skin. The disadvantage is that I lost relatively much blood: I went outside to get some air, started sweating and became dizzy, went inside for a cola, went outside again and fainted... <insert hole in memory here> Two people are helping me to get up, immediately noticing that I've stitched myself.
One of the organisators drove me to the doctor. Waited there for 20 minutes or so, then the doctor arrived and started helping me. Half an hour, several blinding lights, 6 tiny anesthetic shots and 5 stitches later I was being brought home.
If that ain't bad luck!
I won't be able to code alot the next week, since I have to let my hand rest (it's my right hand, my good hand btw) as much as possible and I'll already have to use it enough at school. Table tennis is also a no-go...
Will keep you updated!
