Guess what?

1。

小白: Guess what?

小黑(clinic front desk): What?

小白: I am graduating this term.

I am going to celebrate it.

I am done with school. Here, I've said it!!

小黑: Oh good, so are you leaving for good?

小白: No, Yuck! and ditch my husband.

No, I am not leaving for good.

2。

Dr. Hanel : You look pretty good from last time.

小咪: Yes, indeed.

Guess what?

Dr. Hanel : What?

小咪:  I came to get myself checked

because when we take our pets to the vet

it reminded me that I have to do something

about my irritating face. 

I was going to find a way to e-mail you

how I have been better.

But I couldn't because you didn't give me

an e-mail address to mail to.

Dr. Hanel : Well, because of confidentiality,

we can't give out e-mails.

小咪: What? It is the patient to the doctor.

Why you telling me that for?

My point is if I could just e-mail

you my current situation,

I would not need to be here.

It could save me a trip.

Dr. Hanel : Oh, I'm sorry.

I needed to see for real that

you don't have the rash on you.

Can I also check your mouth very quick?

Open wide and stick up your tongue and say "Ah"

Okay, if you get worse again

I guess I can see you through clinic services.

小咪: Guess what?

Dr. Hanel : Yes?

小咪: What if I am graduating?

 Are you suggesting

I come back to see a doctor

 if I get hired back for professor

or if I am working on campus?

Dr. Hanel : Wow!

you are graduating? This term?

What are you going to do?

Have you had any plans?

小咪: No, not really.

I have been looking and searching.

I went to summer graduation.

Took two classes in the summer

but withdrawal one.

The one I didn't want to take anyway,

"Moby Dick"

Then, Last Fall, I tried a class called,

"American Humor"

The second week, it became all online class,

and after all it went like hell.

Had to withdrawal it, too.

Then, during Fall 2007

I discovered a Women, Memoir, writing class

which worked for

women studies and English studies.

It is only offered once a year.

So, this term, I enrolled in it.

I felt good about that class and had fun all term.

My final grade should be up by Wed 26 .

I think I did good but scared to find out if I didn't.

Other than that, I am graduating this term.

Dr. Hanel : No, Staffs don't get to see here.

It's been a pleasure to know you.

If you ever wanted to enroll a class

and if you need to be seen, we can help.

Otherwise, you have to go somewhere else

when you need to see a doctor.

Here is something you can read to teach you

how you can take care without an insurance

and not being a student anymore.

The same day小咪went home

she found one of her teeth is hurting from inside

and when she showed to her man,

he said becuase 牙齒被燙到

小咪was like ouch

How long do I have to be like this?

How long was yours?

2 days.

Crap!

My two days are up

and I still feel pain inside that tooth.
