Friday, August 20, 2004 ♥
Okie, I’m finally back…like abt a week has passed eh. Well, many things have taken place ah… Like I’ve said, on 6 Aug, Friday, went to the National Dental Centre opposite the Health Promotion Board to take out my wisdom teeth…
The doctor said all four have grown out, but there’s two that have to been taken out first, because they are giving me trouble, growing under the teeth in front of them, so there are holes where food always get stuck there. One of them, the right one, is causing pain, as the upper jaw keeps biting on it ah. So, on that day, took that one out first. Before was discussing whether should take one by one out, or two together…
Well, it was a minor surgery, but had to wear something that covers the hair, the shoes and something like a surgical coat. Then, I was brought into a room, told to lie down on tt chair, my eyes were covered to protect them from the bright light. The dentist gave me the local anaesthetic(I guess), can feel two long needles, quite painful, digging into my gum. Left me alone for like 5 mins for tt mouth to turn numb and no feeling…
Then, the surgery began.
I could like hear all the drilling going on. Hey, tt was really the time I knew wat fingers crossed really mean man! I was thinking about everything, from movies to well everything…finding nemo….where Dory and Marlin were trying to talk to the whale, like I was opening my mouth as wide as theirs were…to thinking what the dentists and nurses were thinking…me very cooperative ba, opening my mouth so big…are they taking the tooth out liaoz..could sort of hear the dentist sewing the wound up…
Then, it was all over. Came all the waiting at a corner, the nurse checking the wound and then give me some gauze…After that, went out to collect mc and down to pharmacy to collect medicine, some painkillers, antibiotics and mouth wash. Allowed to go home after that. Time was already about 5 to 6 p.m liaoz.
Only allowed to eat soft food, so mum da bao century egg porridge home for me.
To stay home for 5 days, go back to remove stitches next week.
On Saturday, the whole side of my right cheek swollen ah, like a ball like tt ah. Parents brought bro out for therapy, me and sis got to stay home alone. Watched The Day After Tomorrow Disc 1 (fan de, borrowed from classmate), and then the BeastMaster on TV. Can never tell u how suai tt guy is lorz. In the evening, parents and bro went out for dinner, again, sis and I got to stay home, so watched finished The Day After Tomorrow Disc 2. Tell you ah, the movie is thumbs up! Not bad ba…quite gd.
Thought my mouth no prob liao ah.
Then Monday 9 Aug- National Day. In the morning, went out to Changi ah, a temple there, find and find until crazy, in the end asked a second person, then found the place.(the first guy didn’t live there, dunno abt temple ah).
In the Afternoon, watched The Teen’s Choice prize-giving, saw keanu!!! Heheee. In the evening, watched the National Day Parade, ah not very fun eh, I think it’s the most boring one eh…dunno leh, maybe, see until sianz liaoz. The song is Home, resang by jj lin jun jie. Aiyah, sing until like tt, changed until ah…dun criticize ah!
On Tuesday, woke up with fever. Whole night couldn’t sleep well ah. In the afternoon, temp raise up to 39.1 degree Celsius, so dad brought me to polyclinic. Argh, wait for more than 1 hr, in the end, the idiot doctor, can’t get anything. No cough, no flu, no nothing else, only fever, so dunno wat’s it. Check temp, only 38.4, says he can’t do anything, ask me if I wun more panadol. Siao! Gave me three days mc, tell me stay home and rest, got other symptoms then go back.
On Wednesday, morning no prob. Bro call and say something wrong with his leg, dad and mum went out, me alone. Felt the fever rising again, went to bathe. Fingernails turn purple. Eat porridge also cannot eat ah, call mum, tell me to eat finish go and sleep. Wait for them come home, the temp rise all the way to 39.4!!! mum dad bring me to the Doctor’s Clinic. Then, there give me an injection, brought the fever down. Gave me a diff antibiotics.
On Thursday, didn’t study for Chem Test… after sch went back to NDC to remove the stitches, fever came back again…ate medicine. Dentist says, if bleeding worsen go back on Saturday. Friday, started to itch. Rashes appearing. So, sat morning, dad bring me to the doc. He says it’s allergy, gave me medicine for itch and calamine solution. Nothing happened to teeth, so didn’t go back to see dentist.
On sat bleed very heavily, saw the blood and nearly fainted ah, legs turned really jelly ah!
Next morning, bled non-stop. Dad quickly brought me to private dental clinic. In the end, re-stitched the wound back ah! Got mc, three days.
Monday went back to school. Whole body turned really red from the rash argh! Insisted on taking o level oral. This week is common test 2 week. Couldn’t study at all argh, so morning took the emaths and eng tests. Every teacher came in and asked me whether me all right ah! Slowly ai the itch and pain until after sch to take oral. Was the first one ah. Oral wasn’t good ah. Quite bad, didn’t manage to see finish the picture, didn’t use the 10 mins well ah. Passage was abt pet show, pict abt some big walk with girl pushing dog in trolley, conversation ask –“do you think pple should walk more often”, “wat is ur favorite walk-huh?” and “do you think pple pamper their pets too much?” – ai yarh, my ans were all crap, very lousy ah!
After oral, hid myself in the library for abt 1 hr, for dad to drive me home. In evening, went to see Chinese doc. On Tuesday, decide not to go to school. Nothing happened until evening, wound started bleeding again. Mum and Dad decided to bring me to the Alexandra Hospital. Checked my blood there and found out I have Dengue Fever. So the rash wasn’t at all allergy ah! Aiyoh, I so damn unlucky! So all the bleeding was due to the low amt of platelets in the blood ah! SO I was admitted into hospital, because of the danger of internal or continuous bleeding if I fall and so on. Got hospitalised for two days, all the x-ray, checkings of temp and blood, eat medicine, couldn’t sleep well at all. Mum stayed overnight with me for two days. Food there ah, not bad eh!
So yesterday, after checking the platelets have returned to abt normal level, got discharged. Pass by sch, so went in, to see if dear friend got leave my things under table a not ah.
See no, saw wen yen all alone there ah.
Gee, I’m back home, have mc all the way until Monday, on Sunday, got to go back to dentist to remove stitches, hope, everything’s all right liaoz.
Missed school and 4o3o4 mons ah, also missed the common tests argh. Lots of things got to catch up. Worry worry ah!
