so does this mean i've become more stupid

"when she said don't worry, and you'll be fine, it's only a matter of time, a matter of time" - mother's prayer (mest)

i almost feel bad.

the day after a 3-day christmas weekend, i was on medical leave for being sicky poo.

and now a day after yet another 3-day weekend for new year, i'm out of commission once again. in fact i have medical leave for the rest of the week.

in case someone thinks i'm the real weakling, constantly under the weather, this is not true. this time i'm on medical leave 'coz of a wisdom tooth extraction.


it's been hurting me on/off for a while now but would subside soon after and i carried on with my busy life. but this time it was begging for attention.

i decided to make an immediate appointment and have it extracted. and oh my was it one huge ass wisdom tooth! i kept the tooth but i'll spare everyone the gory details. anyway i'll be trashing it... it gives me the creeps haha!

so right now i have a swollen left cheek, some level of pain and am reduced to eating soft foods.

this is not even counting the possibility that maybe i've become more stupid. they don't call 'em wisdom teeth for nothing do they?
