What I Did While Waiting for the Surgery

Monday, July 9th, was the day I went under knife to repair my ruptured tendon. Emily and Yung-Yu arrived at my apartment around 11 AM. We visited for a bit before driving to the hospital. Emily and Yung-Yu were so sweet that they stayed with me until I was bed-escorted into the surgery room.

I checked around 11:45 AM. After initial paper work and a bit of wait, all of us were sent to the 'waiting room' so that I can be prep for surgery. Even though I was scheduled to have the surgery at 1:45 PM, it was not until around 2:30 PM that they started give me some anesthesia medication.

So between the time I checked in and when they gave me the medication, Emily and Yung-Yu were keeping me company. We actually had a great time hanging out. We talked about a lot of things and laughed quite a bit. Honestly, I wasn't sure whether the laughter came from me freaking out or we were just indeed having a good time 'waiting.' =)
