As soon as I stepped foot in Tokyo in 2008, I knew I had caught the travelling bug. I decided I didn't just want to travel I wanted to experience the world! The different cultures, the people, the sites and most importantly (to me) the food!

Recently I have started to develop an interest in photography and hope to improve my skills while doing what I love most.

Welcome to my journey........

Dongbu Jeli Hospital

Whatever you do, don't go for your medical test at the above hospital! Seriously me and my friend both went here and we both had problems. I won't go in to their problem as it is not mine to share. But I will tell you about how they treated me.

I went to collect my results last Thursday without a co-teacher as all I had to do was collect them. As if it would be that easy..... When I arrived the big-scary-Miss-Trucebull-from-Matilda-look-alike seemed to be angry. She made said someone to one of the younger nurses who then turned to me and signalled a phone and she muttered 'Korean'. So I called my co-worker (who is not my co-teacher but was kind enough to take me for my medical) and the scary woman started shouting at her down the phone. She told my co-worker that there was a problem with my urine results and that was all she said and she gave me a small piece of paper to show my co-worker. Of course, I naturally was upset as I just took a medical for a bunch of diseases and was told there was a problem. So when my friend asked me what was wrong my eyes teared up. At this point, scary man nurse, started shouting 'Why? why'. Prehaps because your a bitch.....

When my co-worker saw the piece of paper in was in doctor terms with no explation for normal folk. She couldn't even read the handwriting. So we called the hospital up and all they said was it was a simple problem with a few treatments it could be treated. We asked for more information as I thought I could get it sorted when I go back to the UK but they wouldn't tell us nothing.

Anyways today I went to the hospital with my kind co-worker and I saw a really nice doctor. She told me that my urine contains something that means I was either dehydrated at the time of the test or I have diabetes. She seemed confused why the other hospital had not re-tested me. And considering on the day of the test I wasn't allowed to drink all day they should of realised I was dehydrated. The test took 2 minutes literally and they told me I was fine. The doctor was so nice and I think she sensed how worried I was after a week of trying to get information off Dongbu hospital.

End of rant ><
