Occupational Therapy

Came back from a session of occupational therapy. First thing I noticed when I went in there: there was a predominance of females - as in therapists, not patients. It seems as though the "fairer" sex has a predilection for occupational therapy; based on what I heard though males prefer to go for physiotherapy - I have no inkling what the reason is.

Anyway, this is the first session that foreshadows the routine I will undertake in the months to come. I hope it does not adversely affect my university life (social and academic); I might miss events or regular outings. I might be thinking and extrapolating too much, but I really do not want to have the same kind of social life in university as I did have in primary school through junior college - mainly temporary, transient and practical relationships. This explains why I am more active in social gatherings and trying to reverse the trend and at least communicate with my friends more - so our relationships do not just exist as "schoolmates" or "classmates" but rather "friends".

My left arm is moulting! Well it has yet to actually touch soap and water since Thursday so the grime and dirt on it would still linger there. Even though I regularly wipe any exposed area on my left arm, it is insufficient to exfoliate the skin and hence the build up seems to be showing itself. I shall pamper my left arm once it is cleared for shower (:

Well my arm is healing. Thanks to those who have consistently asked for the progress of my healing. Not many people, but I am comforted that at least people still follow up. That's one thing that is undervalued and overlooked - consistency. Shall get to that point in another post.

Thanks for reading!
