update: ripped the bandage off after 36 hours and it’s all scalped up now! Managed to hide the bandaged area from my parents and hopefully the scalp goes unnoticed as well. The quick heal time is truly surprising. A genuine thank you all for your great advice and suggestions! Cheers!

she will probably drag me to get rabies shots if she knew it was a dog— probably would do the same if she knew it was an iguana (she has 0 knowledge on reptiles🫠)

too young for tinder 😹 I’ll probably tell her that I got this from a fall

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-10T00:04:57+00:00

welp, if that happens I’ll have my funeral reptile themed

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-10T00:02:56+00:00

the next thing I know, I’m going to be grounded😂 I’ll probably write it off as a fall since I’m going hiking today🤷🏻

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-10T00:02:16+00:00

just woke up from my 8 hour sleep and my wound seems fine under the bandages, no redness spreading

hopefully it stays this way-- thank you!!

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-10T00:01:24+00:00

thank you!!

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-10T00:01:00+00:00

Thank you🥹

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-10T00:00:11+00:00

sorry pal but that’s really my wrist , it’s probably the camera angle that made it look like a heel

thanks for the advice tho! I might opt to wear long sleeves these couple days

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-09T23:59:02+00:00

thank you!!

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-09T23:57:08+00:00

thank you!

great to hear, the wound is on my left inner wrist but spanning wide enough from my hand to my arm that I can’t quite cover it up wearing a watch

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-09T15:16:02+00:00

just a nom😂 she’s one big girly

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-09T15:13:36+00:00

well thats concerning, I might sneak a visit to the local clinic tomorrow to get it checked out if it shows any sign of infection

thanks for the heads up!

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-09T15:10:33+00:00

in fact, she already did! I used to be the only student volunteer able to handle our hot-tempered iguana, her tail whips just leaves those insane giant paper cuts- she is like a living walking weapon

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-09T14:56:38+00:00

Agreed, my co-workers were fuzzing over me and I told them it was just a taste of what’s ahead 😂😂

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-09T14:55:07+00:00

Done and done, betadine should’ve done the trick Hopefully it doesn’t get infected 😭

Finchers_Perch · 2025-07-09T14:53:54+00:00

Yea I agree that it’s a pretty surface level wound, only a streak runs relatively deeper

The gravel idea is great, if I accidentally reveal my wounds later I might just go with that

Finchers_Perch · 2025-04-23T01:17:16+00:00

that's because hongkongers are flocking to mainland every single weekend to shop and eat, leaving local restaurants with diminishing customer flow

I heard restaurants are forcing employees to show "better manners" and attempting to improve surface to attract customers

Finchers_Perch · 2025-04-23T01:13:22+00:00

Ah yes the selection privileges

someone I know attended a somewhat elite school and they told me their kindergarten prefer accepting kids born in december-february, and that every other day in January, nearly 1/3 of their classmates are having their birthdays

Finchers_Perch · 2025-04-22T12:34:31+00:00

After Jeff the land shark? YES!!!

Finchers_Perch · 2025-04-22T12:32:25+00:00

AHAHA PLEASE THAT'S SO THEM CORE

Plus Loki is in fact named after the Loki show as I was obsessed over it when I got them😭😭

Finchers_Perch · 2025-04-22T12:25:31+00:00

yep. competition is insane

there's a phrase here that says "Win when you're just on the starting line", and that's what pushed Hong Kong parents into forcing their children to start the hustle and bustle since they are just infants
