I finally..

..went to the dentist last Saturday, 18th October 2008.

It was my first visit in a decade or more..

The experience was not as terrifying as the last time as far as I recalled.
This was how I felt.. (might be kinda gross to u)

I was in the 'surgery' (yes, that's how critical I see my appointment with a dentist) room under the bright light. Scaling was done, then polishing. Next, was the filling.

Dentist said: I can give u the injection if you feel the pain is unbearable.
Me nodded.
Me thinking: Injection??!?!!? Oh my gawddddd.. this is going to be longggggg..
Dentist at work.
Construction sounds.
A few hours seem to have passed..
Jaw and mouth was painful, open too long, can't close, nurse was pulling it open too I think.
Start to feel dizzy.
Start to feel nausea.
Me thinking: This is just the 1st filling, will I ever survive?
About another 5 long minutes..
Silent.

Dentist said: Get me the mirror..
Me asking with a numb mouth: Just done with the 1st filling?
Dentist said: Nope, done with 3 already.
Me thinking: Thank GOD. With some dizzy feeling, I am proud I survived the ordeal and walked out of the room. Time checked, I was just in there for about 35 minutes. I bet time passed by so slowly when you are bored or scared..

Somehow, I was proud of myself. After procrastinating for so long, I finally managed to resolve one of my year 2008 resolutions. Yay!!

Have you resolve yours yet?
