Heroic Stupidity
On 13th May 2008- 720pm:
I don’t know how many of you will have thought of a time that you had acted as a hero and found yourself suffering. Well, i’m talking about my 2nd dental appointment when…
Doc: Do you want to have the thicker braces or will you be still better with the thinner one?
Me: Thick one ok…
Doc: Are you sure?
Me: Yah!
***Doctor getting ready***I comfortably got on the seat***
Doc: You sure?
Me: I want my teeth to be nice fast..
Doc: Ok. Do keep panadols (pain killers) with you.
***thinking to myself- he is kidding right?***
So… doctor fixing my teeth…
Doc: Remember to keep panadol with you. When it hurts take some ice cream. It helps to soothe your teeth
****oh no….he is not kidding…….****
Doc: Ok, done! Try bite…How do you feel?
Me: *bite* I feel good!
Doc: Good? Good… have your panadols ya…
The moment i stood up from the chair.. the side of my head hurts! Guess what did I do next….
*stopped at a Sundry shop to get panadol… *roll eyes*
Lesson to learn: Hokkien saying: don’t act smart!
