Well, I got my wisdom teeth removed today. (DAYUM!)
All four of them. (DAYUM!)
They were all beneath the gum. (DAYUM!)
That's how my class views it.
So about an entire hour after I got to the office, I finally got called in to this room that smelled strongly of rubbing alcohol. There were also about fifty sharp tools but wow did it smell like rubbing alcohol. I sat in a reclining chair, staring at the white room, admiring how clean and organized it was. I thought to myself, "Maybe today
Last night, I came home at about 10 P.M. I took a shower, brushed my teeth, and went into my room. I was putting things away when I looked at my bookbag and saw what I would never mistake for anything else. The legs of a centipede. I immediately did some sort of weird jumping twirl in the air. I grabbed the nearest can of Raid and began spraying everywhere. The centipede fully emerged from the wrinkle in my bookbag, exposing it's true size. (About two inches, but boy was it ugly and fast.) It ra
As of Thursday, I will be Best Western's newest pool boy. And it's one of those jobs where you don't do ANYTHING. I just sit there all day watching movies on my computer, and yelling at little kids every now and then. Man it's gonna be sweet.
Someone also graduated high school.
It's 2005!
Last night was spent getting slightly drunk in front of my parents.
Well it's Saturday, but I already know I wasted the yet another weekend. Week. Something. I just sit here being unproductive all day. But I'm on break so I'm supposed to be doing nothing.
And speaking of grades, I recently received my report card. My parents got to it before I could hide it. They've known about it for three days, and they haven't said one word about it. They probably don't know whether they shou
For the next few months at least. That's right, I went to the orthodontist today to get my palatal expander. It's like braces times four. Doesn't hurt, but I can't talk or swallow like a normal person. I found pictures of palatal expanders online, and they were all flat metal things that go on the roof of your mouth. I went to the orthodontist expecting to get one of those, but when I got there, my cool orthodontist decided to use the old one which is the size of a chicken nugget. Plus this one
Well, today I received even more good teeth-related news. I need all four of my wisdom teeth removed! And what's even better is my wisdom teeth aren't done growing yet, so they're pulling it from the bone. Huzzah!
I talked to a few friends who have had their wisdom teeth pulled, and they told me about their horrific experiences and described all the pain and blood involved. I almost crapped my pants. Maybe I did, but I'm too scared to care right now. Who the hell invented teeth anyway?
Hopef
...is freaking hard. I've had more homework this week than all of last year. And I think I'm turning into a psychology nerd. The other night, I spent two hours taking notes for fun. Hopefully the teachers are trying to make us think senior year isn't all easy and whatnot.
Also, I was offered marijuana by my sister yesterday.
Well Christmas break is over. It's six in the morning, and apparently we got 11 inches of snow overnight. I'm watching the news to find out if my school's closed, but they keep going on and on and on about pointless stuff. And some channels have a list of like 800 schools going by really fast at the bottom. But, uh, I guess I'll go to school, which sucks since I walk a mile and a half from school to home every day. Today, I'll have to do it in A LOT of snow. Yay!
I'm just sitting in my basemen
Yikes.
And I had a really hard time sleeping last night. Got about two hours of sleep. So I'm downing espressos now. God, this summer went by too fast.
Remember how it was all warm and spring-like two days ago? Well the weather dropped to 14 degrees, and the snow that just melted came back times three. I hate you Winter. Honestly, just die already. You b******...
This weekend pretty much blew. Yesterday was spent playing poker with friends. Two of them got in a fight early in the day, and everyone was quiet for the rest of the day. But I won two games. Didn't do much of anything today. And I know nothing spectacular is going to happen tomorro
My dog's dying.
My parents called yesterday and told me that my dog had liver and kidney failure. She stopped eating, and can barely walk. They would have put her to sleep already, but they want to do it after I get home. I've been expecting this for a while now, but I had no idea it would hurt this much.
Wow, this year has been pretty bad so far. From January 13th to June 12th, I could barely talk because I had an expander cemented to the roof of my mouth. You'd think I'd have gotten used to it being there, but no. Every day with it was horrible. Three weeks after it was finally removed, my dog, which I had had for 11 years died. And the other day, I found out that my best friend in the entire world got kicked out of school because he failed more than four classes. AND his phone number doesn't w
Last Thursday was my last day of school. I was completely assured that I had failed Algebra and, resultantly, would have to waste three weeks of my break in summer school. On Thursday, after getting home from a long walk around noon, I got the mail. Amongst the letters and adverts, I noticed an envelope with the familiar, blue logo of my school on it. "This envelope seems rather thin." I thought to myself. I opened the envelope with trembling hands to only find my report card. No letter containi
For some reason, I've been having the hardest time falling asleep at night. Last week, I'd go to bed at 11 and wouldn't fall asleep until 1 or 2, but now I can't sleep AT ALL. And some kind of creature bit my toe several times, causing my entire foot to itch from like under the skin. That doesn't make trying to sleep much better.
Yeah. So, anyone wanna share any ways that help them sleep?
It rained this morning and everything outside is quite nice. Not in the springy "everything is fresh and growing and colorful!" way, but in the "everything is soggy and wet" way that everybody should enjoy. Unless they're outside. Suckers.
Summer officially ends in three days. Then coldness and depression begins. Yay!
Today was crap. And it still feels like winter.
In other news, a guy in my World Religions class justified the deaths of people in the middle east because, "they did it first." It gave me the giggles. But yeah, I'm still horribly failing that class somehow. But at least I managed to maintain a C in Algebra for over two weeks. Go me!
No school tomorrow!
What in the hell is with this weather? It snowed a foot last week, and then it rained two days ago, which was real nice since I had the honor of walking through inches of slush. And now it's 70 degrees. Today's weather's fine, but I know the weather's going to drop like crazy in a week. It's as if weather's say "Oh you like this warm weather don't you? WELL TOO BAD. You won't be seeing it for a loooooong time." God, I miss summer.
In other news, I received a letter from my school yesterday say
Oooh yeah. Spacers. Boy did I miss these...
After my 50 mile journey home, I was walking towards my door, and I slipped on some ice, fell, and whacked my jaw on my neighbor's fence. Then I went to the dentist like half an hour later, and got 7 wonderful spacers in between my teeth. They also explained what's going to happen next week. I'm getting a palatal expander cemented to the roof of my mouth. And that's pretty much all I know. Does anyone know what it does? I was pretty distracted by the
Hello, good evening.
I haven't posted here in a while. Nothing too interesting has happened with me lately. I got my ACT results back today. I scored higher a lot than expected, but it's still rather embarassing. I would have done much better if it wasn't for this girl who kept coughing throughout the entire test. I mean, she brought a bottle of water with her, but decided it'd be better to cough for five hours straight and ruin everyone's future. And then there was that nose whistling guy sit
Congratulations on your team's accomplishment. I'm sure it was a thrill. I didn’t boo them, but I wasn't rooting for them to win either. Not because I hate them, but because of their “fans.” In my opinion, Sox fans are more concerned in having bragging rights. It seems as if most “fans” are only “fans” because they hate the Cubs.
Seriously, what is wrong with you White Sox “fans?” It seems like all you care about is being superior to the Cubs. You'd think that Sox fans would have been busy cel
At my school, juniors are requred to go on an overnight retreat at some place called La Salle Manor together. Well, I got back from my retreat like...three weeks ago. Yeah. I didn't want to talk about it until now because it was so ridiculously terrible and thinking about it makes me want to kill people. I'm pretty bored right now, so I'll share my wonderful experience with you.
The bus left the school at like 9 with 30 or so juniors on it. Two people per freaking seat. It was one of those yel
