My day began at 6 am.

We went to the hospital and waited till 8 am. I was admitted to the Children’s ward and was given a bed next to a boy who seemed ok and opposite a girl who’s lip was completely stitched up due to a dog attach, she also had a broken arm and seemed in a lot of pain. She stared at me the whole time. It made me feel uncomfortable.

It was horrible. They made me take my clothes off and wear those stupid smock dress things that are open at the back. They made me take out all my piercings.

I sat there for hours, the doctors came in and looked at my foot for 2 minutes and then observed the boy next to me with the curtains hiding him. He made the most horrible screams, echoing up the hallways. It scarred me for life. He was in so much pain. I felt like crying for him.
Apparently he was on a ride on lawn mower and crashed and he fell to the side where the wheel was and it continued to spin, his leg trapped underneath and it took all his skin off from thigh to ankle.

They brought in a x-box and DVD player for me. I watched half an hour of “Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me.” before I had to be taken for surgery.

As I was getting the injection in my arm the doctors asked me about my New Years plan. I told them I was going to go to a party but it seemed off the cards now and they told me to go and get the sympathy vote from all my friends all night and that I’ll get all the attention. I told them I wouldn’t be able to get intoxicated. They were nice mean in there late 20’s so they had a sense of humour and sympathised with me. They told me I would be able to and then the lady doctor spoke:

“Have you ever had a Bacardi Breezer?”
“No.”
“Would you like one? I could get you one write now!”
“What? Huh?!”
Then I felt a rushing feeling up my arm like fish swimming in the sea and then it swirled around in my head and made everything feel heavy, I closed my eyes.

I didn’t wake up for 3 hours after. The doctor was fiddling with the drip on my arm violently and I became restless and started groaning. She was checking my blood pressure and it hurt and I started getting pissed off. She told me to calm down and I told her to get me water and I would. I was so groggy.

I got water.

I was happy.

They took me back to my room and I slept for 3 hours.
Then I had a sandwich and water and got dressed and I was allowed to go home.

I almost vomited in the car but I was great when I got home. I re-pierced everything and was very very happy.
