Eyelid Operation

I'm actually writing this with one eye open, one eye closed under an eye patch. Why? Cause I had an operation on my eyelid!


On Australia Day this year my mum noticed a lump on my left eyelid. We went to a doctor about 2 weeks later, and followed his advice to do warm compressions- warm water on a towel and hold it on my eyelid for about 10 mins 3 times a day. 
That didn't help, so a few weeks after that, we went to another doctor. He said it was a cyst, and referred me to an eye doctor. 
Which brings me to this morning. I thought it was just a regular appointment at 9:30 am. Just a little look at what the problem was, and MAYBE, just MAYBE, if the doctor was up to it, the operation. 


First, I got called to see a doctor who just asked me lots of questions, and we talked about school and subjects because he was also a tutor. He got me to do a few eye tests (and I found that my right eye was the dominant one). Then we went to another room and there was an assistant who just checked out my eyelid. Then the doctor who'd do the operation came and we were like, ok, we'll do the operation please so it's done during the school holidays. 


It was kinda weird, but fun anyway. They flipped over my eyelid and made an incision and drained it and stuff. Yummy, right?

The Holidays.

My holidays will be quite packed. 
'Quite packed' is a total understatement by the way.


 I'll tell you all the things I would have liked to do during my break at school:
- Go to Luna Park with my friends
- Go shopping for three wardrobes worth of new clothes with my mum
- Play on the computer for extended periods of time
- Cook lots of yummy things from my mum's many cookbooks
- Work out with my Pilates DVD <-- totally impossible btw
- Watch hilarious Japanese DVDs with my mum
- Go on a short holiday with the family (inc. my dawg)


Instead, here's what I will be doing:
- PD/H/PE Assignment (fun...)
- Music Assignment
- History assessment
- Geography assessment
- Commerce assessment
- Science assessment
- 4 hours of piano a day :O yeah right
- Lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of piano general knowledge for my exam coming up
- A few fun things I will (I say 'I will' with too much hope) squeeze in 


:'( 


But still, it's the holidays. So I'm totally looking forward to them :)
