Scar Meme

Description

My participation in Humon's Scar Meme.  Scars current as of 23.6.2014.

Most scrapes on my limbs are from my childhood.  Too much running around.
The ones on my hands are from the army: IV practice points and the time when I accidentally stabbed my hand with my knife.

The one at the back of my head is my most major injury.  I slipped on some ice on a sidewalk and hit my head on the corner of a concrete obstacle.  I got a significant wound and a concussion.  Also I chipped the edge of the block.  Walked to the nearest hospital and got stitched up.
Weird that.  One moment I was up, the next I got a flash and I was on the ground.  Stood up, felt my head and saw blood.  No panic.  No fear.  Just annoyance.  "Where's the nearest medical center?"  Walked there holding my wound.  A woman walked as an escort, so I wouldn't lose consciousness.  Should've asked her name so I could've further shown my gratitude, but my thinking is strictly objective-based: got injured -> get to hospital.  Still, it's good to know there are good people.  One does not need heroics, but small acts of kindness.
When I feel the scar, I can't tell if it's the scar tissue or the bone that has a slight ridge feel to it.
In any case I was lucky.  There was a door holder in my range of fall next to the obstacle.  If I had hit that...  I thank God for running causality so that didn't happen.  And the fall itself I feel was karma.  I wasn't too sympathetic for a girl who'd run under a tram.  Looking down on her carelessness brought about the results of my own carelessness.

You didn't cut through any tendons when you stabbed your hand, right? And that head injury sounds scary, good it didn't get worse.

Interesting meme, might give it a go myself sometime...
