Guess What Happened To Me This Morning
I burnt myself.
Yep. And in, like, dumbest way possibly. So here's what happened:
I was up at, hm, I think five, maybe six, in the morning, right? I was hungry and decided to try and make some Cream of Wheat. Thing is, I totally suck at cooking! Like, I burnt rice in the microwave one time! Yeah, I'm that stupid >.<
Anyway, so when I felt the water was hot enough to put the stuff in, I did so. I started stirring and added some more, and I was really, really close to being done! I started to notice it was popping, and picked up the pan and started to stir it a bit wile holding it (from the handle, I'm not that dumb xD)
And then this bag of powdered sugar, which was right next to the stove top, fell over onto the burner and started to dissolve onto it. I was in a really big panic, and placed the pot of cream of wheat on top of the coffee maker and then stupidly grabbed two paper plates and started scooping the sugar from the burner with one plate and trying to get it onto the other.
That was really stupid.
Because the stuff ended up splattering onto my bare arm! Yes, burnt sugar burning my arm, and some even got on my hand. I started crying out in pain, cause, well, it fucking burnt like a bitch, can you blame me? I've, never been that badly burnt! Anyway, so when I got the hot sugar off my arm and hand, my hand had a small white streak beginning to form on my hand, and the tanned color of my skin (under side, not the top, too) had been burnt away leaving me with a white picked-clean-bone color! I was in so much panic and started screaming for help and soon found myself crying. I hate crying so much! I find it utterly humiliating! My mom came out and told me to put it under cold water, so I did, all the while crying about if I would need to go to the hospital or not and her being so calm and saying she wouldn't know and we'd have to see.
I hate hospitals! I know lots of people may not find it a big deal, but I have a large phobia of needles, and the thought of being in the hospital always brings back all those times I went and got stuck with those stupid needles >.<
I found out the burn on my hand is okay, pretty much just red, though I did get a small [I believe it's called] second degree burn. And so did my arm. It's not a huge spot, though, mostly spots here and there.
And I didn't have to go to the hospital, either =D
So, for now, It's being wrapped up and I have to keep putting this ointment stuff on it every few hours. It also doesn't burn anymore. Or at least not as bad xD
Although, the funny and stupid thing is, while getting the burn, it gave me an idea for a story! xD

I burnt my Ankle once because of a lamp, lol my bro thought it would be a 'Bright' Ideal to take the lamp shade off and put it on the floor so I could see what I was doing under my bed because we were cleaning (I was only 10 then) Well, I moved my leg, ankle met hot light bulb and Well, got a second degree burn >.<, Somehow managed to keep it from my parents for a few days (Don't ask, I was trying to be responsible for myself, not working much) until I finally broke down and told me mom, I still got a scar O.o, Anyway, I cook a lot, I'm pretty good at it (I cook all the time and really love to cook) And also I remember when I was younger I somehow managed to set a hamburger on fire O.o, it was pretty lol XD alright getting off that, I've been burnt multiple time's, best thing for that is something called Aloe Vera Gel, get's rid of the sting and make's it ALL Better ^^, Anyway Chow!

Hahahaha, I stuck a bobby pin in an outlet and got a first-degree burn all down my hand. That sounded painful, tho. Hope you;re okay!
Although if you burn yourself and it ends up looking like a tattoo or something, it might look cool. XD

OMG L!!!! Sorry, minor fangirl moment. And yeah, I've burned myself like that too, almost the exact same actually. I was only six and I tried to get spilled sugar off of the stove. My finger got stuck under the burner, it wasn't goo. >.<

Ouch. >< I usually burn myself with steam, drinking fresh cappuccinos, or eating just cooked food. :\

Ouch! The only thing I've burned is food and my hair. Not my arm! That sounds painful! Glad to know you didn't have to go to the hospital!
