Yang Rising
So... I'm in my third week of Chinese Medical school and my gawd is it fascinating!
I haven't fallen asleep in class yet... I haven't gotten bored yet... I haven't fallen behind yet... and most of all... I've touched more men then I've touched in years. LOL...!!! Of course... it's all done professionally and for learning purposes. *wink* ;) (Side note: I've also touched women... ick! Pass the Lysol wipes pleeease!!!)
At the conclusion of week two of full time work and close to full time school, I was already burnt out, but my mind still didn't know it yet. It all started with 4 deep fried chicken wings and a pint of pork fried rice for dinner on a starving starving starving Friday night to trigger it all. On Saturday morning... my eyes were bloodshot. So red that they would put Edward's to shame. (BTW, I think the hairy werewolf dude is much cuter than the blood sucker.)
So, after touching my girl partner (ick) in my tuina class and scaring off the other half of class, I went to the school's clinic to get my eyes looked at. Crystal, a pretty white girl, took me in as her walk in patient since her original patient cancelled. After speaking with me, taking my pulse, and looking at my tongue, she diagnosed my condition to be due to "Yang rising".
The next thing I knew, I was flat on my back, jeans rolled up to my knees, no shoes, no socks, and no shirt... for those straight guys... this would be heaven. :) For me, it was pure wonder. For a moment, I even felt like I was on an alien's examination table after being teleported to their spaceship while asleep. Moments later... about 20 acupuncture needles where stuck in me and moxi was burning on my bare tummy. As her assistant removed the moxi before it left permanent marks, Crystal channeled her Qi energy through the various inserted needles. MY GAWD... did I feel her Qi energy. It's not of pain of course. I just felt a slight electrifying effect of energy flowing through my body. This was my second acupuncture session, so I knew what it was like. After Crystal started the Qi energy flow in me, she left the room with her assistant to let me rest for 20 minutes. I almost fell asleep since it was so peaceful and relaxing; even though I had needles in my head.
At the end of my session, she prescribed a patented herbal formula in pill form to help relieve my sinus pressure as well. Today is day three after my session and I already feel much better. My eyes are almost back to normal. My Yang is still excessive, but it'll take more than one session to calm it. She advised to me that the Fall is about "gathering your harvest and slowing down" and that I should take it easy. :)
The more I learn about Chinese Medicine, the more I have respect for it. :) Thanks Crystal...!

Hey hey hey!!! I resent the way you talk about women. Just because you are not romantically attracted to us, doesn't mean we are disgusting!!!
Also, Edward's eyes are golden brown. Only vampires who drink human blood would have blood shot eyes. So, keep it easy with the blood drinking, alright?
Okay... I suppose I need to learn to touch women too... ick.
Edward's eyes are golden brown, but I bet you that they'll be red if he sees me. lol...
You're too funny Sparky.
Congrat on your new career path!
Thanks Miaka!
