Blood - spurt, flow, drip, clot.

"If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month." - Theodore Roosevelt

Fort William - Inverness - Fort William
Pengangkutan: Highland Link Bus
Tempoh: 3 hours 40 minutes total

One whole day tutorial. 62 miles away. Penat. Bosan. "Patient Safety" - menjamin masa depan siapa? Doktor? Pesakit? Pengurus hospital? Hal-hal berkait isu silap salah doktor - overdose, HIV transmission, amputation, wrong kidney taken out... Kemalangan? Kelalaian?

Aku pernah patah ibu jari tangan kanan. While playing football. Bukan penjaga gol.
Stabbed my foot into a dead shrub. Melompat turun dari astaka di padang sekolah. Excised out in A&E that night.
Pernah kemalangan motosikal. Alone. Sekarang Mak dah tahu. RM200 gaji pertama aku melayang.

6 tahun. Kawan aku berdarah hidung, seorang lagi patah gigi. Aku yang tumbuk mereka.
8 tahun. Kepala jiran aku bengkak. Rounders bat flew straight to him during a game after my perfect hit.
10 tahun. Seorang lagi jiran luka. Aku campak mercun jarum dalam baju dia.
12 tahun. A classmate dislocated his his wrist. Dalam surau. Bruce Lee - Chuck Norris punya pasal. Salah aku. Rasanya.

Tiba-tiba aku rasa ganas. Fierce. Agresif. Hardcore. Was I careless, or simply dormantly predatory?

Let's bleed someone. Blood sample from a patient in hospital. Or pop the cherry. Hehe... Darah.
