Hearing test

Went to participate in a hearing test for batchmate's research group today

It was really cool

Unlike the cranial nerve examinations we were taught, they actually use a device to check the frequency of our hearing!

*excited*

So we're urged to put on this kinda-heavy-and-gigantic-looking-headset and given a device to hold on to (for which you're supposed to press when you hear a tune)

They will test your hearing each ear respectively and you're supposed to hear a tone of different frequency

Although the test was conducted in a sound-proof room (I bet you can hear a needle fall onto the floor even) it's kinda hard to 'catch' the tune

What more to say, the tone you hear will get softer and softer each time

I've to strain my ears really hard, to the extent I actually stop my breathing

Another thing that is eerie is that

You can actually hear your heart beating, like the ones you get in horror movies (before the ghost appears)

I wonder how do they expect us to concentrate when all these sounds are obscuring the tune

In the end I gave up

And just follow my heart

So I just pressed whenever I 'think' I hear the tune (could be imaginary)

Surprise, surprise

Turn out that my hearing is normal after all XDD

Thank God

Of course it comes with a price

The whole test took my breath away

Literally ><

Ok lah, not to that extent

But when the test ended I was so relieved 'cause I can finally breath normally

It was fun, you guys should try it

(trying to drag more scapegoat to hide the embarrassment)

That's probably gonna be the most happening event for me during this holiday X)
