It is 11.30 am in the morning. I should be in class now..enjoying my last class as a Degree student. Laughing or probably listening intently to my lecturer's lecture on Jurisprudence. Unfortunately, all of that are not meant to be as I can't even go to that class. Sigh. One accidental step on the bus can cause you that. Or to me, cause me to miss my final week of Degree life.
Let just say I fell and sprained my ankle. And oh, I am walking with crutches too. I don't have a broken leg,thank god. But still, not being able to walk much kinda makes you miserable. Truthfully, the seriousness of my injury has not dawn to me yet until the pain comes and ravishes my foot. All that determination of wanting to climb the stairs and hills of my faculty to attend classes just gone out with a smoke. Poof.
However, I try to think positively. There must be a reason behind all this. As one of my friend said, "Maybe God wants you to rest adequately for the finals". Sigh. I really hope so. Anyway, I learned new things. Like, how to 'walk' with crutches, trying to be more patient, how to register myself at the health centre, trying to do things with only one foot and also, learning to be grateful that my situation is not that worse compare to other people.
I also started to regain my faith in humanity and my friendship. When I fell, strangers come and helped me. They carried me & brought me to the health centre. My friends, helped me too. They bought me food, passed me the notes of the lectures I can't attend and they tried to bandaged my injured foot with a bandage even when we all never bandage any foot before. Most of all, they gave me encouragement and support. And I am forever thankful for that. Only God can repay your kindness. I am forever grateful. =')
So, I guess, me falling from a bus have its lessons after all. However, keep safe people. And always watch your steps when getting off the bus. Or you end up like me.
