ACUPUNTURE!

I hurt my back badly and I haven't been able to move my neck for a week... The worst thing is that I cannot sleep because I can't get comfortable :(
I went to the Natural Clinic on Brewer Street for acupuncture and shiatsu. I had needles all over (see an example below...)

I feel a bit better, but I need to go back. They said that it is going to take a bit longer for my back to heal... I'm stuck, exhausted and bored. I hate it when I'm ill and cannot function properly.
They sent me home with microneedles in my hands and elbows. They are painless, but effective. They just look a bit funny.

ENDLESS BLUE...


She said it's cold out here
won't you let me in?
We've been in this rain for hours
you haven't said a thing.
And why do all the things have to change
just when they mean the most?
She said why do al the things have to change
just when they mean the most?
It always happens that way
It always happens that way.

TODAY...

I went down to the Wellcome Collection to see their new exhibition "Brains: The mind as Matter". I had to queue up for about 20 minites to get in... First time ever! I usually walk straight in.
 

The exhibition was very interesting. It featured pictures, artefacts, books, artworks and real brains. I got hypnotised by a video about trepanning and a bit disturbed by one on ECT. I also got intrigued by the two books below by Antonio Damasio. I couldn't choose between the two and couldn't afford buying both... dilemma!


 

 After the exhibition my own brain needed a break and some sugar ;)


I wore my new swans skirt today for the first time. I think it's really cute. Not a brainy quote to end, but hey!

Argh! I want to go back to Japan!!!
