i got my annual physical examination today. inspite being the first patient in the doctors office, it still took me 3 hours before i finished everything. and when it's time to have my blood drawn..hay naku..i need to be poked twice kasi hindi successful yung unang try...actually i just told the phlebotomist to just take out the needle and just try my other arm. paano ba naman hindi na nga nya na-hit yung vein ko, tuloy parin sya sa pag-galaw ng needle sa loob ng skin ko...hello..hindi nya ba alam na mas masakit yung ginagalaw yung needle kesa sa i-insert nalang!!! but i still maintained my composure that time..kasi nga as a nurse i does happen when you cant get it the first time and press your luck na sana ok yung second time around!!! totoo nga yung #8 saying (listed above)..needles are better to give than to receive..!!!
