First Time at the Doctor's

I have been really sick the past few days. I've been coughing, have a sore throat, and a runny/stuffy nose. It has been rough, but I was a little scared to try to go to the doctor.

Today my boss took me to the doctor and it was the fastest, easiest thing I've ever done. It took a total of 7 minutes from walking in and leaving with some medicine. Another great is it only cost me $5.11 US.

It was thirty minutes before I was supposed to teach my first class and my boss was like, I am taking you to the doctor. And I thought she was crazy. I didn't have an appointment and I had to be back to teach! But we went and it was great. It helped having her there because she of course speaks Chinese and that made it easier. We filled out one form, and they immediately sent me back to the doctor. I sat in a chair, he sprayed some stuff in my throat and nose, stuck weird Q-tips up my nose, and told me I had a cold. He gave me a prescription for all these different pills that I got two minutes later from the office. I was so scared, but it was so easy. Here are some pictures:

Now I'm just waiting to feel better, and drinking some hot green tea in the mean time.
