Dental.......

heys,

i'm feeling depressed right now.

Today just felt like a long day.

I woke up at about 8.

Printed out some documents for uni,

went to Dickson to pay some bills,

Returned some DVDs borrowed from the public library,

had my dental appointment,

went to uni for my workshop which lasted for 3 hours,

went to a supermarket to get some batteries,

had dinner and now i'm at the laptop.

the main reason im feeling depressed right now is about my dental appointment.

The cost of the appointment is about AUD$150 but i had only paid AUD$90.

(due to insurance, manage to get it cheaper)

The cost is expensive but this time, my dental appointment had not only the dentist to check

my teeth but also x-ray it.

For the past week, i had been feeling slight pain at my gums.

it comes and go and i told the dentist about it.

The dentist then briefed me on my teeth and said that my teeth looks fine.

I was asked if i had any major examinations going on or i fell sick in the past few weeks.

I said nope and i was told to watch out and in the next 2 weeks if i still have to go back and

he will refer me to a specialist.

the check up was AUD70 while the x-ray was AUD$42 each (x-rayed 2 sides) = AUD$150-ish

dad was furious when he found out the amount of money paid

and he kept on saying that the people out there are money minded and doesn't care at all & etc...

i felt angry and sad.

To me, i felt that the money paid was worth it.

My teeth are important to me. (i have my reasons but i now choose not to type it all out)

dad said that the dentist is money minded - yea, so? i know they can be money minded but the dentist did it to find out the cause of the pain i've been feeling.

Dad said they didn't care - if they didn't care, at least they showed that they actually cared for me/ my teeth. They even remembered what was our conversation topic the last time i had a check up (that was about end of last year!)

At least they remember and showed that they care for me, not like dad who cares more for his money than his own daughter.

I wouldn't mind forking up the money from my bank account then to pay for my appointment.

sigh.

i'm also having a massive headache right now.

I've been having it since 2/2.30pm and it's now at night.

i'm really hoping that this helps in lessening the sad feelings i have right now....

but it doesn't seem to be effective....

i guess i'll just have to let time do its job.

i'm sorry to you readers for this sad and depressing post.

i promise that i'll come back with a happier post next time round.

c u then.
