Physical Exam

I went to have my annual Physical Exam today and here are the initial obeservations:

1. I really, really, really have to get my teeth cleaned. Admittedly (and shamefully), I think its been two years already since my last prophylaxis (let me know if spelling is incorrect).

2. Scary because whenever its time to check my eye sight during these physical exams, I never really had a hard time reading the smallest of letters. Today, I had a hard time. So, from a streak of 20/20 perfect vision, its now 25/25 near sighted. (kala mo naman ang taas..) But if you think about it, in times like these, you start to question yourself - is my body starting to deteriorate now that I'm getting older? Ayoko...

3. My urine is quite overly yellow in color. The attendant said I'm not drinking enough water. I asked if Coke light isnt' counted since there must be H20 somewhere in its ingredients.

4. My weight is 144 lbs. Fine. I concede. I really gained a lot of weight, so much so that evertime Joel sees me, he always asks how my twins are (pointing to my stomach). I really love rice kasi eh.

5. Height - 5'4. No way (to my think). I thought (or more of hoping) I was at least 5'4 1/2" to 5'5. Shar.

6. The doctor is a non sense. He looks like Garci of the infamous "Garci Tape." Mukhang mandurugas. He seemed like he just came from his other job as a cab driver at naka-boundary na sya. Using his stethoscope, he proceeded to check my breathings in just three separate pressings of my chest. And that's it. Okay na daw. God, in very good hands ako ha.

Additional: In my years of going to company physical exams, I never really submitted my stool. Ever. Yuck eh.
