Wisdom Teeth Being removed in 4 days!!!
Hey readers!
So I am having my wisdom teeth removed on friday and I am getting more and more nervous. I have all four of my wisdom teeth already so they just need to pull them out in preparation for my double jaw surgery.
I am not so worried about the actual teeth being pulled out or having my gums stitched since i will be very numb and very asleep. the recover doesn't bother me much either because I have already had 4 premolars removed. The thing that really bothers me is the IV. I haven't had one in a really long time and I am already such a chicken when it comes to needles. I am going to call the surgeons office tomorrow and see if I can go to my doctor to get a sedative to take prior to going in. When I had my premolars removed I took a sedative 1 hour before which is probably the reason why I let them put lots of needles in my gums and just enjoyed the whole process. I swear, I remember the whole thing and I enjoyed it, I was laughing the whole time.
I go in at 8am on Friday and I will not be able to eat or drink after midnight the night before. I'm not too concerned with that since I am usually not up at 8am and I usually don't eat that late.
I'm trying to stay calm. I must say I am insane for finding the IV to be the scariest part but that is truly how I feel. My veins are all very visible which probably helps.
UPDATES REGARDING MY TEETH
I can almost stick my whole tongue out when I have my teeth completely closed.
My lovely gap is getting larger (i still don't know why I have a gap)
I still have pain in my lower teeth and I can see them leaning more forward.
I am finding it harder not to drool when I am concentrating as my mouth doesn't really close at all anymore. (yes this is so sad)
Also, I have French again on Wednesday night and I am praying that I don't get embarrassed yet again for not being able to pronounce anything due to my lovely bite.
Thats all for now, I will update after my wisdom teeth are pulled.

Piss off Blog #2 I hate my University
Hey everyone!
So today was suppose to be the last day of exams for me. I had an astronomy exam this morning. I stayed up all night last night as I had another exam ending at 10pm last night. Anyway, I went in, wrote the exam in 45 minutes and right when I finished some idiot pulled the fire alarm and made a bomb threat. So although I signed out, everyone needs to redo the exam, new format, next weekend!! I was so close to booking my wisdom tooth extraction next thursday too, good thing I didn't. My school is known for these occurrences. To add to the story, yesterday a girls body was found in one of the houses on campus. I'm sorry I'm just really mad at the moment. I was suppose to have two weeks off before summer term but now I have to write another exam. My school is really something special.
On a lighter note, I went out into civilization for the first time today since having braces. It felt very weird, I have to admit. When I was talking to my friends, every time I smiled I felt like my braces stuck out of my face. Good thing they are clear so you can't tell from a distance. It is going to take some getting used to.
Anyway thanks for reading, hope everyone is having a good weekend.

Life with Braces
I got my braces on tuesday and I have to admit I am getting used to them. Just wanted to make a quick post and say this to everyone with braces:
If you don't have a waterpik, then you are missing out big time!! This thing has become my new best friend. I don't know what I would do without it, it gets everything out of the braces so you don't have to brush your teeth while rubbing bits of food between them. It's really amazing <3
I also booked my wisdom teeth removal. It's May 20th at 8:00am!
The wheels are rolling!!
Now back to studying!
Later peeps!
