Nose Replacement

I may not be the healthiest, but I don't remember being a sickly child. But now, after my third doctor's visit in less than a month, I'm beginning to think otherwise. Plagued by sinus symptoms since my childhood days, I thought I'd finally shaken off the annoying daily rhythm of wheezing and nose-blowing a few years ago. And of course, the swelling of my nose one size too big (think Jackie Chan), besides an uncanny resemblance to Rudolph.

Short of rolling the tissues and stuffing them into my congested nostrils, my worst fears were confirmed. *Dramatic Pause* I am ALLERGIC to the climate of the place I call home! The humidity in Singapore appears to be a bane to my ultra-sensitive nose. This probably explains why I can always pick up the slightest whiff from even 10 miles away.

And so, before I get a nose replacement (well, there's hip replacement, right?), I reckon I'll just have to pop pills and drip nose drops, or maybe this.
