mondays are good. =p
"What?! P1720 for 15 tablets of Ponstan and 7 tablets of Levox?! How eeekksspensieeeeve!"
That. That was what kept on running in my head after the cashier at Mercury Drug entered the prescribed meds on the cash register. The relief that I felt the other day vanished. I thought that the medicines my Gastro doc wrote in the prescription
wouldn't cost at most a thousand bucks because they're less and are only for a week. But mygawd, why, oh why did I ever think of that?? Someone should have reminded me that my doctor
only prescribes the best and priciest medicine(s) there is. It's not that I'm not thankful.. I really am! My ailing GIT is doing very well now that I was even happily pouncing my way to the drugstore.. then reality slapped me.
Itai... Luckily, there were no violent reactions from mom after I texted about the amount, plus the price of the book that I need to buy tomorrow, which brought the total to a thousand+ more. Perhaps it's because she's used to buying expensive medicine (I think she even included it in the monthly budget) ? ...Or she was too far away and texting wasn't enough to let me know that she was already having a heart attack and the BP's continually rising.
Need. If it weren't for it, I personally wouldn't be enthusiastic enough to go to the drugstore, doctor, or hospital. Tama nga 'yung tv commercial ng multivitamins: Bawal magkasakit.. Because medicines are going to bring you early death. Hahaha.
As I stared at the white tablet in my hand, I felt helpless. "You're pure... plain white. You have the same size as that of Ponstan. Tasteless. You aren't a honey in the tongue; you don't slide in easily. Honestly I wouldn't believe that a single you costs P190. The Mefenamic Acid would've convinced me more." And I sighed, "Kung pwedeng display ka na lang..." *holds breath and swallows along with water*So much for the Medical drama. Oh, have I mentioned that I saw the cutest, cutest, CUTEST guy ever?!?! I think he's very interesting and it would really make me happy if I get the chance to know him more. Errm.. Actually I was holding back hard from pinching his cheeks and completely glomping him. Hehe. I can't believe it but I'm beginning to love Mondays~~
p.s. Thank you, thank you, thank you to Kuya Borase (a.k.a. Mark, hehehe) for the brownies and "Aww, that's so sweet" line. ^_^
