A trip to the Clinic

I went to the clinic just the other day.

Why? Because I had a frigging fish bone stuck in my throat. Not just any fish bone. A measely ikan bilis bone. And that's just assuming that it is, because I ate Nasi Lemak. Unless it's might be something else, but let's not go into that shall we? haha. So let's just assume that it was a stupid ikan bilis fish bone then.

What's so annoying about this situation is that it was just a tiny bone and it got stuck on like (okay how do i explain this) the lower soft palate thingy part of my mouth? Like the end of my mouth? Hahaha. And the stupidest part is that I could SEE it!! Gah!! But I can't seem to get it out! It literally looked like one of those stubborn splinters that gets stuck onto the skin. Haha, I'm disgusting I know. :P

This happened after I ate lunch in the office you see, and after Project Extracting Ikan Bilis Bone 1 in the toilet did not work, I went on to Project 2. This time, trying to swallow a huge portion of what's left of my cold Nasi Lemak rice with hopes the rice will push the bone down. eeww.. FAILED. Project 3; gulping down what's left of CNY's pineapple tarts also with hopes the tart will push the bone down. FAILED AGAIN

Gah! So after having to tahan that piece of !@#$% in my mouth half the day in the office, I decided I will use my toothbrush once I reach home. And yes, I tried it and still..... -____- FAIL. I almost wanted to ask my sister to use a tweezer to get it out. hahahaha! Then I had this horrid scenario flashed through my head. I was afraid that while my sister is trying to get it out, somebody might just come in and give both of us a fright, and thus causing my sister to accidentally tweeze my Uvula (I think that's what it's called) or worse, causing me to choke on the tweezer. Ish.. What a nasty sight!

So anyways, my dad made me to go to the clinic to get it out. And so I did... When I was there, there was this Chinese old lady with another Indian guy who was ahead of me. They were in the midst of telling the medicine aunty at the registration counter the reason for the doctor's visit. It turns out that this poor old lady was all alone in her house doing her house chores and she fell. Her head was bleeding and swollen very badly. She looked so frail and my heart just sank when I saw her. Thank goodness her neighbour, the Indian guy was there to take her to the clinic.

After they were done, it was my turn.

Medicine Aunty: Next. Yes? How are you feeling?

Me: Erm.. I have a fish bone stuck at the back of my mouth.

.....

Hahaha. Lucky the medicine aunty didn't give me a -_____-" face, especially right after the case of the old lady who fell.

So yeah, talk about the fastest doctor's visit in my life! When I went in and told him about my situation, he just told me to say "Aaahhh....." and stuck a huge ice cream stick on my tongue, grab a long tweezer and took it out. All in about 10 seconds. Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy! But the bill? Freakin RM30!!!

!@#$%^&*@#$% gaaaaah!



Oh well.

Till next time folks!
