Health Check

I had my health check today. The school owner called the place a hospital, but I am pretty sure it was just a doctor's office, because it was way too small to be a hospital. I had to pee in a cup for the drug test, and then I had to have blood drawn. The drug test took like 5 minutes and a nurse came in with the results, negative of course.

After this, I had to have an x-ray of my chest. it was weird because I had to put my chin on some chin rest, and then pull my arms back like chicken wings and breath in. I probably looked retarded. I also had to do a vision test, which came back normal for both eyes. At the end they also measured my chest, which was exactly 48 inches. I only know this because the side of the tape that I could see was in inches.

The process of driving to the doctor, the health check, and driving back took around 2 hours. The driving provided some interesting and awkward conversation. Apparently, the owner's son (who I teach English to in the after school program) loves the band Queen and Freddie Mercury. I wanted to ask her if she knew that Freddie Mercury was gay, because being gay is definitely looked down upon over here. We also drove by an outdoor market that looked pretty cool, but I have no idea how to get there.

Other than that, I did almost nothing at work today. The lesson plans for next week are already made, so all I did was read them over. The owner's son was supposed to come but he missed his bus. So I just drew up a list of things I wanted to try and do or buy this weekend.
