I am going to talk about an important skill I learned when I was 15. It's injection and blood pressure measurement. I learned it at the hospital. I was 15 years old when my uncle's son, who is a medical student, suggested I go to the hospital for practical experience. I was clueless about injections; I had only learned the theories. My brother advised me, saying I should watch the nurses work and then try it myself. It was not easy because I watched the nurses give injections 10 or 15 times, and after that, I decided to try. You know, if I did it the wrong way, a patient could die. But finally, I did it, and my theoretical knowledge helped me a lot. This skill is very important because it's related to my future work. It also inspired me to watch a lot of operation and injection videos related to my dream job. It was a significant boost for me.
