January 20

Since this blog is apparently supposed to be a diary of sorts, I suppose I'll just type out my random thoughts and stuff that is happening in my life. Today I got my stitches removed! Even though they've only been in since Sunday, I was glad to get rid of them. Kind of embarrassing, but I hardly ate or drank anything last Sunday and thought it was a good idea to go to a workout class at the TRECS...yeah, not a good idea. Anyway, I ended up passing out from dehydration and hit my chin somehow. It was really more embarrassing than painful, really. There was an ambulance, firetruck, and police car--complete with their respective drivers/workers and the TRECS staff who I guess are medically trained. It was a little over the top. I met a really nice police officer, Mary, and she helped me through all the embarrassment and my roommate took me to the ER. So I've been walking around with 5 stitches on my chin all week (or a huge bandaid on Monday and Tuesday...) and getting them removed was a huge relief. The new Student Health Center is really nice and it's HUGE. So besides classes, that's about how exciting my week has been. Tonight I get to go to a friend's place and have dinner and watch movies with a few friends, so it should be a great time. Yay!

    That sounds terrible! I've actually never gotten stitches or gotten to ride in an ambulance. At least you have a cool story to tell.

    That must have been horrible to deal with...I bet your family was worried! What kind of a workout class was it? There's probably a great variety at TRECS. Stitches sound rather painful too!

    I cannot imagine what I would do if that happened to me. At least you were cool about it. I turn bloodshot red if anything embarrassing happens to me. Hope your chin is all better.

    Thanks you guys. :)
    Kristin, it was something like body bootcamp I think. It was a little too intense for someone who doesn't regularly workout.... oh well!

    Wow, how embarrassing, but I'm glad that you are okay and that you had so many people look out for you. Hope your chin feels better!
