Pain is 90% in the mind

So yesterday something happened.
I was on the diving board and i slipped and fell off the board. Not only did i fall off, but i also cut my shin (leg) open. It wasn't painful or anything, just the shock of getting out of the water and looking at my leg. It was all white around the cut and you could see the bone... AWESOME!
SO i went to the hospital, and here comes the worst part. The doctor injected some stuff into my wound. The most pain I've felt in my life, right there in those 30 seconds. Needle into the wound, not good. And then she started to wash and then stitch up.

I think I've learned a valuable lesson from this: Always wipe the board before a dive, cause its slippery. And look into medicine, because its a rewarding job.
