a Journey

I am buddha-eared right now, thanks to an infection in my right ear. It's a miracle my head's not tilting in a lopsided manner, because the size difference between both sides is unbelievable. I still don't know how my ear managed to get this big overnight, but it did. So there.

Anyway, I'm on this powerhouse course of antibiotics now. If the swelling doesn't go down in 3.5 days, then I will have to undergo a minor surgery. I am freaked out about that; but it's also the fact that I've to shave my head! FYI: any operation above the neck requires the person (I don't want to use the word patient, since it's all a bit surreal to me now) to go bald.

I'm just going to hope for the best. And I hope I don't develop a fever (40 degrees would be a clear cut indicator) because that would mean my body cannot take the powerhouse antibiotics. And I'll just have to go straight to A&E to deal with the allergic reaction and undergo the operation.

I guess all the times I toyed with the idea of going bald... Mmm, perhaps, this is a good enough excuse/opportunity to go ahead with it! DON'T WORRY dearies, this is just to keep you updated. I'll be fine, you know I will. :)
