Enamel, Dentin...

As my break quickly approaches an end, I can honestly say it was a great break. I was able to stop, rejuvenate, and evaluate. I found a lot of time to do things that I missed, which is lots of reading, movie, and tv watching. My motto for 2011 is "Let Go and Let Flow."

I also managed to decently recover from being on my death bed for about a week and a half. Before I get into the exhaustive list of movies that I watched over break I have to speak on something briefly...

Two words: Wisdom Teeth!!!

First of all, I feel like I was lied to. I feel as though people implied that it wasn't that bad, that I will recover rather quickly and it will be a thing of the past before I knew it.

Despite the sharp shooting pain, I managed to have a good New Years... puffy face and all. But as I was saying, no one told me all the little nuances. Like the fact, that I will have 4 holes in my mouth in which food and stuff get caught in and I am forced to "irrigate" with salt water...gross!! Just everytime I have to do it after eating, all I can think of is that I cant believe I actually considered being a dentist.

Lawd help all those people that are currently dentists and those that are pursuing dentistry... Just grossed out thinking about it... All the pain, tenderness, jaw swollenness, puffy cheeks, inability to open my mouth... I ate yogurt for almost a week. For some reason, I don't like soft foods... so couldnt eat applesauce, pudding, jello, none of that stuff. I braved mashed potatoes, but only because I was desperate, don't really like that either. Anyways, having all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed was simply awful, can't think of a sum of money you would have to pay me to endure that again.. I'm think at least $1,000, ok maybe $500... (I need the money. lol. )

Until Next Time...
