I WANNA BRUSH MY TEETH ALREADY

Never thought the day would come but my wisdom teeth finally started blooming. And within 2 weeks, they got booted from my mouth as per the dentist's urgent recommendation. The extraction was quick and painless; they shot me up with a bunch of numb-ers but didn't put me completely to sleep. The worst parts about being numb but conscious were the sound of my teeth being cracked, the metal drilling against my teeth, and seeing the stitches being tied. Nonetheless, I survived tear-free and with a giggling curiosity. Like "WTF just happened in there!?"

Thank you for consoling me in my time of oral disability!

So I spent a whole day (and weekend) eating mushy foods that babies & old people eat -- apple sauce, yogurt, pudding, and mashed potatoes. By the end of the day I was ready to play & go out. That's cranberry & sprite on the rocks, FYI! The Grand Star in Chinatown offered a very mixed and urban crowd with raw jazzy hip hop music, all of which cannot be found in Irvine. And we left with aspirations of house dancing. So so so so sick.

The days following were not so pleasant, as the pain meds had me on lock-down, unsafe to drive anywhere. I missed a lot, but it's just the first week of the quarter! Much more fun to be had later!
