So I went to get acupuncture today and let me tell you…I should have went yesterday…LOL. As the doctor walked out of the room…the stupid Chino earthquake hits.

So there I was, lying there with needles in my stomach with the fire thingies burning on top, the bed starts to shake violently and I see the little jars of stuff on the table next to me tip over. Then my mom comes running in and tells me “GET UP!”. I kept telling my mom…”what am I gonna do?? I can’t get up with all these things on me!!!”. Then after a few seconds the doctor came in and said “don’t worry…stay lying down”. Just as my mom seems to have calmed down another patient comes in and says “start praying!” lol. I don’t think she was being very serious but that made my mom freak out and she started to pull my arm so I’d get up. AHAHAHAHAH.

I guess I wasn’t very nervous about the earthquake since I was around a bunch of people and not alone, but I still think that it has to be one of the worst situations to be in when an earthquake hits.

Ok.. that’s it..just had to share the story cause I thought it was funny. This is a drawing of my earthquake experience from my point of view LOL.

Well I got acupuncture for the first time today and it was crazyyyyyyyyyy. The doctor was referred to my mom from her friend. My dad went in for his neck pain and I went in for my female problems.. ahem..tmi!!

Anyhoo.. I was really scared at first but the doctor actually started to put the needles in.. it wasn’t bad at all! It felt like having a pen poke you real fast and after it was in, you couldn’t feel it at all. I think I had 20 needles in me and only 1 or 2 actually made the skin around the needle feel sore, but other than that it was painless. Then the doctor started to burn something over the needles and it felt super warm as the heat went down the needle and man did it get hot. My mom had to come in and spray water on the skin around the needles… lol

Well after lying around for 35 minutes I got up and felt awesome! I actually felt kind of high… lol.. um not that I know what being high feels like.. ahem..
