visit to the doctor

i finally relented and went to see a doctor today. actually, it's mostly to do with the fact that i felt like i was dying everytime i coughed. and my mum has been bugging me for the longest time to go see a doctor.

so after describing the various ailments i had and how long for, the doctor goes, "all right. let me check your mouth" so i obligingly opened my mouth wide and made the "aarr" sound they always ask you to make. i swear, the doctor visibly recoiled at the sight of my tonsils! then he goes, "well you have laryngitis...and tonsillitis...your left tonsil is very swollen"

so i guess no kissing then, doc??

at least that explains the major discomfort (understatement) i've been feeling for the past week!
