why this day was bad, but got better

Yes, so you know the stories about the student that does something stupid while cutting something for class. slips and has to go to the hospital? WEll that wasnt me. but almost. I was using an exacto knife between class today, the thing slipped and slid right into my finger. pretty deep. I think i actually hit bone and there was blood, that literally poured. im sorry. but i need to vent this. I ran to the sink to get cold water on it, dripping along the way. I was so proud that i got to the sink and was suprised that it didnt hurt, but at some point after watching all the red water, i started getting queasy, and anyone that knows me, knows that is bad. so i got a paper towel around my thumb and sat down eventually having to laydown. Atfer a few min and jackie ministering to my thumb, i felt ok and worked my way to my desk. I decided to clean up the blood. Back i went to the floor(purposefully)and laid there until i decided to go home, cause of how ill i was feeling. but we were supposed to go to coffee with astrid(ironically the teacher in whose class i passed out in last year) today, and i really wanted to go. So i bucked up and went. And it was fun. She does want to go to italy and germany and some other good professors are toying with the idea, so the outlook is good on the trip next year, pending the influx of money. So now i have a big hole in my finger, covered by a bandaid that wont be removed for days as i am scared to see and pass out. And a half finished ravenclaw scarf for harry potter tommorrow night.
Wish me luck
