Embarrassing myself…twice in a roll.

So yesterday I was mixing IV bags in one of those hoods and I poked myself with a transfer needle. (FYI, the transfer needle is the thickist needle you can find in the pharmacy). Instantly, my one of my gloves was filled with blood and I rushed to clean up the mess.  I was amazed how much blood came out of that little poke after two paper towels and lots of pressure!

But then as I sat in the IV room, I felt the world was darkening and my vision became blurry with lots of dark spots.  My coworkers tried to take me outside the room and I couldn’t even hold on to the walls! So they sat me down and they were all scared because my face was all white. I tried comforting them, saying that I was alright and just needed a few moments for my body to work its magic. So it turned out that I just needed some fresh air from wearing the stuffy face mask and lots of food since I didn’t have breakfast.  The only good thing about almost-fainting is that everyone was extra nice to me the rest of the day.

So yaya I am still alive!

Since we are already on the subject of fainting… 

The second embarrasing moment was when the whole school read my paragraph about why I want to run for the Director of Media and Publication.  I’ll just say that my paragraph was only four sentences long, and none of them mentioned how smart I actually am.  My opponent had more than ten sentences in two paragraphs and the first sentence was already better than my whole paragraph! What have I done!?
