why I hate the smell of band-aids
On the first day, I drove to uni (which I wont do anymore cause parking sucks some major something) about a half an hour early. I knew I'd need to sit in my car for about twenty minutes, talking myself into it........

I rolled a cigg, took a few deep (smoke-filled) breaths before gathering up my stuff and getting out of the car. It was at this point that I turned, and ever so elegantly, slammed my thumb in the door as hard as I could!

Rivers (complete with rapids and whirlpools) of blood cascaded from under my nail, while I stood trying not to faint!

I'm generally not a very practical person, but for some reason I just happened to have some band-aids in the car. (Thank-you universe!) Lucky; I'm almost positive I would have died of blood loss otherwise. So I quickly wrapped my pulverized digit and limped off to class.....

Welcome to university!

	Poor finger! Did you use it as a conversation piece? Like "Hi! Can I borrow your pen? You'd never believe what I did to my finger this morning..." etc. Ice-breaker, if not nail breaker ;) (Reply to this) (Thread)
