Nicole's Adventures in Japan

On Tuesday on my way home from school, I was hit by a taxi. I was headed across the street and he was coming up the street and neither of us saw each other in time to stop. He did hit me with the Taxi, but mostly he knocked me over so my right side is a bit sore. I have a lot of bruises but no broken bones, which I am very thankful for. After getting hit I think I was in a bit of shock, but then I slowly got better and nothing was broken the Taxi driver was very helpful. No English so I called the company who hired me so that I could figure out what he was talking about. Then his boss came and I tried to explain. Shortly after a police officer came and took down information from me and the taxi driver. It was about this time Crystal was coming past, she works at the Jr. High stopped by, and while she doesn't speak a lot of Japanese she speaks way more then me. She was very helpful. Shortly after that 2 more police officers came to look at the scene take pictures, and inspect the scene. About then it was determined that I should go to the hospital. I don't think I have ever scene a doctor more quickly. Their system is very efficient. The Taxi driver drove Crystal and I to the hospital and then talked to the staff there. With- in five minutes they cleaned the lovely scrape on my arm and bandaged it, which I will take a picture of as soon as the bandage can come off. Then they took x-rays and in like five minutes later they showed my the x-rays. Nothing was broken!!! Good news, but I am still hurting some. Then I was done and they were sending me home. Except the Taxi Driver showed us where the closest drug store was so I could get a prescription for these magic pads that make my shoulder stop hurting. I don't know what is on them but they are nice. Then the taxi drove me and Crystal home. And then I ate a little dinner and fell asleep.
Oh as a side note, my bike was fine and Crystal was kind enough to put both are bikes at the Jr. High since we were not to far from the Jr. High. So I had to walk to school this morning, which should be proof to any Grandmother or Grandfathers who maybe worried about me. I am going to the hospital again so they can change the bandage this afternoon. Cause it was a scrape but it was pretty deep, but it will be good in couple weeks. Truly I am fine and will be better in couple days.
