2008-10-06 : PHS
Public health screening was rather good. Figured out how to use the lancet things, you have to twist the ring all the way to the left before you can load a lancet, or the thing won't load properly. Was rather puzzled why the loader was so finicky and spent about 10 minutes figuring it out.

PHS was much better than last year! I managed to spend time at all the interesting stations. Actually there were only two interesting stations, BP and Blood Glucose. I spent half the afternoon as a queue manager and went off to do BP when it became less crowded.

It was exciting because they ran out of lancets in the evening, just as people were starting to come in again, so we couldn't test their blood glucose for them. Interesting because it was so chaotic!

It's very exciting to poke people's fingers with the lancet. I think it's the worse the longer you wait. The person will sit there thinking of what it's going to be like, and the longer you wait, the more time their imagination has to run wild.. hoho.

I think I shall do it again next year!
