I DID IT!

Yes! My surgery was a success! You can't imagine how relieved I felt when I opened my eyes immediately after the surgery to discover that I still have my sight. Haha. The experience was terrifying; I was uptight the whole time. Thank goodness I have a nice doctor and nice nurses around. This marks the first and only selective surgery that I will ever put myself through in my life.

Today is considered the third day, or specifically, 43 hours after the surgery. Yesterday when I went for the first follow up, doctor said everything is excellent, I have 6/6 eyesight on the first day of recovery, and no signs of infection. I was soooo happy to hear that. And he said I could do and eat whatever I want, as long as no swimming and contact sports for a month. And so, I watched a movie last night already. Terminator Salvation, with a bucket of popcorn. :)

Well, I wasn't supposed to wash my face and hair for the first 48 hours after surgery, but who could stand doing that right? So, I did both of the 'sins', being very careful not to allow water get in my eyes. Unfortunately, a few drops of water did flow across my eyelids last night while I was washing hair and it was a little stingy. But I think everything is under control. Hehe. :P

I might have lost quite a good portion of my fine vision though. I can't see my pores at all. Either they have miraculously disappeared or more logically, my eyes can't see tiny things like pores anymore. As a result, I appear prettier on my mirror and my man appears more handsome. The illusion of a smooth complexion.

I sure hope my fine vision gets better. I wouldn't want to think that I'm a swan when everyone else sees me as an ugly duck.

And by the way, my doctor is Leonard Ang, Premium Lasik Surgery Clinic.



2 weeks of turbulence but we survived.

LASIK

I have made an appointment on 29th May at 10 am to do the pre-Lasik evaluation. If everything is fine, I will do the surgery at 2 pm. However, I am still having second thoughts. Some friends told me to go for it...said it's safe and will save me a lot of hassle in the future, others warned me against the consequences of the surgery and how unreliable the whole thing is. HOW??? Should I or should I not?



It is my eyes we're talking about.

Childish Thoughts

I am aware that I am in my mid-twenties and I should start behaving like 1. But towards certain things, I'm still using the 18 year old brain.

I shall not divulge the specific childish thoughts as they are really, not worth to be mentioned.

Anyway, I had a great time shopping with Phoebe today (yesterday)! She can just light up my life in ways which no other people can. :) Lovesss!!

So, practicum's over. I have a 'long' break from now till 29 June. That should make me happy.



Friend or foe?

Who Else But You

We have been asking what song this is and finally, I stumbled upon the title and singer. And so, this song is for you, my 'somebody'.
