I was about 6 years old and me, my mum and dad went to bbq at a near by park. Shortly after we arrived i decided it would be fun to see how far i could run with my eyes closed. So off i went unable to see a thing when all of a sudden i fell into a thorn bush. My parents came running over and was just glad i had not fallen out the other side of the bush because there was a deep pond there. They sat me down and started pulling out the thorns from my flesh but they did not manage to get one thorn out of my chin. I still have this thorn in my chin. It doesnt bother me at all but if i pinch my skin i can feel it in there. Have you guys ever had something like this happen to you ?

It's dangerously funny experience you had! lol I am so behave and very shy during my childhood days. I just sat in the corner and closed my eyes if there were people coming by. I don't talk nor move nor experiment that much. I just read, color, draw or simply watch life passing by. i only became so active (but not hyper) when i started engaging in sports.

Um, that was a really, really stupid thing to do. I can't imagine ever having an impulse like that. How ridiculous.
I don't have anything permanently lodged in my body, but my fiance does. When he was in 4th grade some kid stabbed him in the leg with a pencil and the lead tip broke off deep under the skin and it's still there at 23 years old.

Oh dear that sounds painful, would it not be good to get the thorn taken out by the doctors in some way, just in case it could do harm in some way in the future, not being up to all that sort of thing, I bet you don't go running around with your eyes clsed alot anymore...
