Today I did 2 things that I haven't done in years, like 10 years that long~!

The first was that I had to visit the dentist. Why~? Well, it's a long story. I had to go back at least 10 years. I can't remember if it's during my Secondary or Primary school days... One of my rear tooth was slightly chipped off~! Don't bother asking me how, cos I don't remember either~! So the pretty dentist put so sort of clay to overlay the hollow area of my poor tooth nicely. Everything was fine until recently, I think that's about a year now also, that the clay came off without the slightest warning. Well no big deal at first, until yesterday night... I cried~! There's this unique sharp pain when I had my dinner. That's when I decided that I had to see a dentist, REAL QUICK~! I'm that kind of person who Live To Eat, so "no eating" means "no meaning living" also~! ^_^Haha~! I'm exaggerating a bit here though, I think you get the picture...

So immediately after work, that's about 1200hrs, I rush from Clementi to Queenstown's dental clinic to avoid the lunch time off, if there's any. But to my hyper surprise, the counter lady just coldly said to me, "I''m sorry, we only do appointments. And the earliest appointment is on December." Not to be mean, but I was crying out loud "W.T.F" inside my head upon hearing that. I believed that not everyone is a regular customer to their dentist, right~? So how to make an appointment when I don't even know the number since I haven't gone to a dentist ever since I left Secondary school~? Crap~! Some more it's a government dental clinic... Should the concern department do something about this~? I don't know, what do you think~? Especially when emergency cases, like mine. They mean I can stop eating until December then they help me~? Yap, sure no problem... But I guessed I needed to pay a lot more extra, since they'll be doing my tooth at my tomb~! Not to be mean & sarcastic here, but I think it's a bit too unflexible~!

So lan lan (Meaning no choice in harsh Hokkien, sorry for my language here. Too furious over the incident already~!), I gotta seek other alternatives for my small problem... I then went to Ghim Moh area for help. My dad recommended there yesterday. I reached there at about 1300hrs. Wahaha~! Guess what~! It's freaking LUNCH TIME~! What luck~? Fear that my lunch would mean hell for me later during treatment, I dare not eat just before seeing the dentist. I guessed that we all had this fear with dentist. Maybe it's because they just look SCARY in some way... Although they're always in white, and are clean with those shiny metal equipments, but we're still scare~! Aren't we~?

Luckily for me, the dentist returned from lunch early. At 1340hrs, I met my savior. I think they too needed appointment, but at least the kind counter lady bother to check with the dentist on whether he had time for me. I mean, that makes a difference isn't it~? Better than just a cold, "Sorry, we only do appointments~!" *sigh* However seconds after I sat on the dentist chair, I start to regret already. Well it's not that painful anymore that I know, but still the fear in me feeds on me. Time and time again I caution myself that the pain is going to hit me soon, but it didn't. I was so tensed throughout the whole treatment~! I thought the ordeal was finally over, but that kind of comfort never last. When I reach home only, the clay start to crack already~! He had put too much clay on the sides of the tooth, and worst, he did not apply pressure like the previous dentist. I think I'll have to visit another dentist soon, but still I thank him for the effort...

The second special thing I did, was just before the dentist open his clinic. There was this stall nearby which sells original CDs made from China. Trying desperately to kill time & attention that the fact that I'm already VERY hungry (Still am now~! Haven't eat yet~!), I took a look. The guy was playing some songs of Lisa Ono. She's the older kinda singer from Japan, hear from him that she's coming Singapore soon for her concert. She is supposed to be quite famous, as according from him. Anyway I don't know her, and didn't take notice of what was playing. I was looking at the other CDs, especially the Paris Hilton one. After some time, I find the songs of Lisa Ono was quite smoothing and pleasant to hear, I bought it. It's of 2 discs. I got the Michael Jackson's hits too, and that's 2 discs also. The last disc was of Roxette's hits. 5 discs for only S$20/-. Good buy, I tell myself. It's been like more than 10 years since I last bought a CD. Those were the days that I'll go to Bugis just to buy a CD. Hmmmm.... Those were the days... However when I got home, the titles on the CDs were wrong~! PLUS, the Roxette's one was a disaster~! Some songs that were supposed to be in the CD were not there, however on the other hand, some that were not supposed to be there, were there~!

That's my day~! How entertaining...? I guessed I'll be looking forward to visit another dentist soon... Meanwhile, pray for me k. Just pray...
