LASIK: Post Op

Having almost a perfect vision now ;) The few days post surgery were the darkest moments of my life (read: hibernating in dark rooms and shades), in the good sense! :D

I donated specky away at the clinic. Hopefully the 750, 800 could be of use to someone else as *erhemz* shortsighted as me. Can you believe it? It's 6/6 now! and the feeling's fabulous!

But nothing quite beat the *exasperated I have nothing to do!* feeling over the healing days. I finally realised the importance of teevees and computers in our lives! Thank God for LADIO invention!! I had my trusty Ipod music blasting beside me the whole time whilst I drift off and woke up from slumber to drop the antibioticss. 

My first 4 days were spent

LIKE THAT

Awwwww....what can I do without my little angle? He was curious about mummy's indoor shades and was just beside me the whole time! I ve got nothing to complain already!

And LOOK what I see when I get up from bed? 

PERFECT (yes! 6/6) view of The Dog!

No more scrambling of the specky! Mur doesnt get woken up in the process!

And I get to SEE the cutests moments! awwwwwwwwwwwww... he was doing his usual cutie doggy stretch in his sleep....

well... I did have some fun on Day 5 though...

1 week no gym, no pilates, no yoga, no run....I kinda asked for permission to climb trees and do flying fox and Doctor was a-okay! :D

So there I was! Flying-foxing across the Bedok Reservoir!

With a teeny weeny bit of secret: Guess where I put my 2-hourly eyedrops?!

In the cleavage!!! pocket of the sports bra :D

It's been 13 days post op and I AM LOVING IT!!

Goodbye specky!

Midnight Horrors

I once woke up in the middle of the night because something was troubling me. It was the existence of a 'presence' in the room. Somehow in my deep slumber, I had a weird feeling and I woke up to see a dark shadow on the ceiling above me. I scrambled for the specs that were placed beside my bedside so I could catch a clearer glimpse of 'the shadow'. And YES! There it was!!! A freaking.....

LIZARD!!!!!

not ghost laaar...

Dont ask me why The Lizard's presence could creep its way into and disturb my sleep. But it was there, right above my head and cuddled in a corner of the ceiling! And had it decided to leap down to its death while I was scrambling for my specs, I would have decided to leap off to my mock death as well. There had also been instances where I almost stepped on the disgusting roaches, that appear as dark (maybe water) blotches on the floor, in my barefoot while I tried to find my way to the bathroom in the night. They remain harmless until you see the water blotches scramble at lightning speed! O_o" Then there was another instance where I was freaked out by the shadow of the near-human size Valentine's piggy that N got for me - I thought that a 'being' was watching me from the window! Oh, how I curse and swear at myself for not taking good care of the eyes when I was younger....

But now that technology has become so advanced, and so many friends around me have gone to get back their perfect vision, I have decided to join in the crowd to prevent the above life-threatening incidences from happening again! :D 

LASIK!!

With Doc Lee H.M. The story to my selection of eye surgeon would be another classic ;p

Now I cant wait for the convenience it ll bring to our tong siao mahjongs, sleepovers, dive trips, overseas trips - no more tired eyes and no more peeling out of contact lenses from the heavy water pressure from 40m under the water! Imagine that! :)
