epik_noodlesOkay, yesterday was a really bad day.
After I posted yesterday's entry, I made a trip out to the local Walgreens(I walked). I went to buy cold medicine and Crunch bars(well, chocolate cures everything). On the way back I was walking uphill on the sidewalk that leads to the restaurant. Everything was fine, I mean, I was walking quite slow-paced.
Even I couldn't believe what happened next. (*well, in actually, a few days earlier I was reading Takahiro Nishijima's blog 'in the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
attackallaround lj community', which he explained in graphic detail of how he injured himself on the bathroom sink and the painful night that followed) I was thinking about Nishijima's blog post at that time and I laughed about it, hoping that nothing bad would happen. IRONIC.
(notice the irony in this)
As I was laughing when approaching the entrance, I couldn't believe it, the next step I took...... my foot slipped...I felt myself sliding backwards...both my knees crashed to the ground...my hands followed...I lost balance on my hands...and fell flat on my face(I swear Nishi's blog post is cursed). The next thing I knew, I was on the icy cold ground and I let out a very loud "Yowch!!!". Talk about black ice, you couldn't see how icy the sidewalk was. Unfortunately, no one saw me fall (my cousin Som was in front of me 'but inside the building, I was outside' but she was too busy on the computer to notice my accident/pain), my mom walked out of the restaurant kitchen after hearing me scream so loud. My mom walked towards the window to see if I was alright. Hoping that no one saw me, I quickly got up and limped into the restaurant.
The pain was HORRIBLE!!! Oh man, I felt a combination of burning, needle-stabbing, and oozing pain. I can feel cold blood dripping down both my legs from my knees. My work pants were totally ripped apart around my knees. I could hardly walk since I'm still partly in shock and temporarly lost motor functions in both legs. I was dragged into the kitchen by my mom and placed onto a chair. Then my mom took a huge bottle of peroxide and poured it all over my legs. If everyone is familiar with peroxide, it makes skin/wounds bubble, gross.....
After the peroxide was a few splashs of what felt like super corrosive alcohol, the stinging and burning I couldn't take anymore! Then it ended with large applications of iodine.
To top it off, my mom put two bandages on both knees.
I didn't do very much yesterday, since I couldn't move.
Moving on to this morning. I had a Nodame moment(a moment of absent mindedness).
I didn't mean to cause myself so much pain. When I woke up this morning, I performed my daily routines. Today, I wanted to clear up the floor and put a few things into my travel bag. So, me in my so-called Nodame moment KNELT onto the ground to pick up some random wires and cds, then I realized from the searing pain in my knees that I slowly felt my deep wounds spliting and re-opening with a lot of blood gushing out. My reflexes told me to throw myself onto my back and start screaming in pain while rolling around on the floor hugging my leg.
That wasn't fun at all...
And this morning when I got to work, out of my stupidness I heard a phone with the nokia theme song and I know I don't have that tone set on my phone. So, I yell to my cousin Som and tell her that I think a customer may have lost their phone in the restaurant. So we both searched the restaurant like maniacs and we couldn't find anything. And we all know that no one in the place uses the nokia theme songs. It was driving us crazy because we couldn't find the phone.
Then I eventually pulled out my own phone and checked it to see that there is one missed call from Ex. Then I was like, "wait minute" I go to my ringtone settings then realized that my sound was set to "nokia theme song". Oh, then I felt really stupid because the phone which I thought belonged to a customer was my own phone in my pocket. Wow I am an idiot!!!
