In answer to my prayers for more rest, God gave me at least 5 days MC to be legimately absent from work for about a week.
Ok, what happened was that i went to the dentist yesterday, the one near victor’s house and wanted to ask him to come down and eat hokkien mee but i ended up being quite late so i didn’t, but i realise today that he ate dinner late too. So i should have just asked him out for dinner -_-”’
ANYWAY, i went to the dentist and waited for an hour +++ for the dentist! But i forgive him, cos he’s said thank you for waiting and was very nice to me. So i told him what’s wrong and his initial diagnosis was that it was my wisdom tooth giving me problems. Later he took an x-ray for me.. that was interesting! So i got to see how my left 2 molar teeth look like. And i’m proud to say that it looks healthy enough. No decay thank God! But there was just a wisdom tooth hiding in the corner and creating this little hole thing that makes food drop inside so i easily get inflammation and infection and decay and what not. Anyway according to the doctor, the long term solution is to get rid of the wisdom tooth by paying 500-800 bucks. SO for the time being, he gave me medicine for the inflammation, and it’s better now, as least not aching that much.
And at this point, Victor would disagree, because i was whining away to him on the way home from church today. Because at that time, it was SUPER achy. So i kept harping on the fact that my cheeks were swollen and i wanted to put my finger in to rub the area. He suggested biting some chewy sweet, but i didn’t have one on hand. So when he bought bubble tea, guess who stole a sip here and there. I was so excited that the pearls and coolness of the drink help soothe some of the achy-ness.
So I should be going for the op… though I need to find out from my boss when would be the best time to take it. So for all those who planned something with me in the next 2 weeks. I’m sorry, but it gotta wait till after I’ve recovered from the surgery.
Anyway, i’m quite excited about it! Partly cos of the MC.. 5 days off leh! where to get? But my dad was concerned that it might affect my performance since i’m undergoing probation. hrmph.. but no choice right. the wisdom tooth has just gotta go. And It’s a new experience… and…. well.. the dentist quite good looking.. one always needs some good motivation to go to the dentist.. besides the usual if you don’t go ah….blah blah blah..
