The Doctor's Appointment.

I just got back from a doctors appointment at the office located in our building. Now, this whole time I have been feeling pretty good about myself, living in my own place, watching kids regularly and taking care of the few bills I have. But today, more than anything I felt like a second grader. I have a sinus infection, which isn't that big of a deal, and my host mom has been helping me so  much with it. She has been buying me pain killers and treatments and she set up my doctors appointment for me.

I won't go into the details of my cold like I did for my dear friend back home, but I will say that this cold has made me realize how unexperienced I am in life. At the doctors today I really wanted my mom there. Right when I entered the receptionist looked at me very oddly like I was lost and I had to repeat myself three times to have her understand me. (This, I am blaming on my clogged up nose voice). I felt so idiotic making the doctor repeat himself once or twice because I couldn't understand him and I knew he just looked at me as though I was some stupid American teenager, which I am. But it wasn't nice to be reassured of it. Just this little experience made me feel so ridiculous that I have returned to my little abode (where I have spent the last two days while not at work) to hopefully skype someone and complain a bit on the blog.
