Jan. 6th, 2009 08:12 pmVomitey girl is vomitey. Photophobic girl is no longer too headachey. Spent half the shoulder dystocia workshop in a dark room (basically a stationery cupboard without the stationery) at the back of the classroom with the door closed to keep the bloody light out. Missed about half of what was being said, sometimes because I had fingers in ears to keep the bloody noise out. It was a headache and a half. Everyone wanted to send me home, but eh, it was sunny outside :)
So, here's the thing about me and pain. I withdraw. Completely. I sometimes don't notice when people are talking to me if I'm in pain. I've been known not to notice until I was shaken with a very loud "SARAH!" If I'm in pain, leave me the hell alone unless I ask for help. Cos I really don't appreciate help. Or even notice it, and then when I do I have guilt about making people worry. So there y'are. Stupid body.
And, ooh, I don't have exams in June anymore! It's in May now. So that's exams every month until May.
