Took my 2nd jab today.
The doctor kept asking me how painful the first jab was because he knows I hate injections. He changed the needle for me! To the smallest one again.
He asked if I wanted to take a blood test right there and then so that I'd know if I need a hepatitis jab, then started laughing because he knew I'd say no.
1 more jab and I'll be done!
I seriously don't understand how people can get used to having injections. The idea of it freaks me out.

I received an email from International Rivers today!
My voice was heard when I signed the petition to stop the construction of the Xayaburi Dam. They halted all construction activities and had the staff and equipments withdrawn. (: (:
"The Xayaburi Dam, if built, would forcibly resettle over 2,100 people and directly affect over 202,000 people, and could threaten the extinction of approximately 41 fish species, including the critically endangered Mekong Giant Catfish. An additional 23 to 100 migratory fish species would be threatened through a blocked fish migration route. These impacts in turn will affect the livelihoods and food security of millions of people in the region."
This is not a positive sign for the Mekong River.
There're so many dams built across the river already. WHY WOULD THEY WANT TO BUILD ANOTHER ONE?
