done with the drill

i feel freaking hungry now and yet i cannot put anything in my mouth until the next hour.
yes, i made that trip to the dentist to have some filling done. 2 teeth and it costs me rm125.

forget about those government servant's perks. how many civil servants have the time to go during the fixed visiting hours at the dental clinics in the district? even if you made those visitation time, you will still have to wait for the next few months for the next appointment to have the actual filling done. this happened to mom.

so i am happier now that the problem is solved. going to the dentist has never been a scary trip. i just have to remind myself that whatever pain i am putting myself through is only for my own good. so there goes the fear.

and what do you think of when you are on the dreaded chair with the drill in your mouth?? whatever it is, don't close your eyes. that way, you will only be focused more on the pain you have. i prefer to let my eyes wander everywhere and analyse whatever patterns that i can see above me. haha...that will take my mind off the drill and the pain. and luckily the dentist has his radio tuned to mix fm. so at least you can hum along to the songs inside.

thank goodness that the bad flu i had yesterday did not follow me today. i was keeping my fingers crossed and praying hard that my nose would not itch and i had to sneeze on the chair. phew! i only sneezed when i left the clinic. imagine the embarassment of sneezing. ok i can't imagine the scene.

now i will just take a nap in an attempt to forget the hunger. then it is back to watching australia. i am done with the first hour of the movie. ain't that bad. but if it is an attempt to lure more tourists to visit australia after watching that movie, i dun think that will work. you only see lots of barren lands, canyons, sand, dust, cattle, horses.....well you know the list. how many ppl will actually go on that walkabout in the outback?
