First of all, thank you for doing my fillings again. Afterall, I don't wanna sound ungrateful. In saying that, I just want to let you know that I don't appreciate the fact that you rest your instruments on my lips, the way your labcoat brushes my face too often and how heavy your hands are. There are times that I honestly want to push them away but feared that I might inadvertently scrape your instruments in my face too. It also doesn't help that the light shines on my eyes the whole hour I had to lie there while in the unconfortable Trendelenberg position. It's not even the scary needle that you used to inject anesthesia on my gums or the extra dose of it that was sprayed on my tongue that bothered me the most. It was mostly the cold hard instruments that pushed and grazed my lips and teeth as you repositioned them so often. Sigh.
In any case, I would have gladly given you a piece of my mind but it seems like you are new to this. I sympathize with you because I do sometimes focus on the task and not on the person in front of me at times. I guess in time you'll be better at recognizing that your patients have reasons why their eyes are tightly shut and their hands fidget every now and then.
Sincerely,
the girl who said thank you anyway

On a lighter note:
- My mom finally transformed the jello packets I bought to something yummy
- Wednesday will be an educational day
- I am getting more and more excited about summer
- My nephew finally knows my name
- Eggo waffles are the best snack with a hefty serving of maple syrup
- Weekend will be spent lounging about in my pjs (hopefully)
