the nickname chipmunk has a whole new meaning....

so i got my wisdom teeth out yesterday morning, and although i dont look as bad as i had figured i would...it still hurts a whole lot. i'm only a little swollen which is good, but i cant really open my mouth up very wide, and it hurts to take my pills. they stuck an IV in my arm to knock me out, man it was so freaky-i dont like needles. i remember feeling the liquid gushing into my arm, but i dont remember falling asleep. and i do remember being able to feel the doctor poking around in my mouth, but i remember it didnt hurt. and i remember being woken up and this lady walking me--haha really slowly--to this little room with a bed to wait for my parents to ocme back, and i was alseep and hiccuping....so i must have looked so weird--fat cheeks filled with gauze, blury eyed, and hiccuping...hmmmm. then we sat there for a while and my mom took me home. i sat around for a while and had to change the gauze every twenty minutes--oh man it was gross. my fingers were red the first 4 or 5 times, then by around 11 when i went to bed for the night, it was only a little pink in the corners....but it still hurts awfully bad.

natalie, melissa, and tara came to see me today, which rocked! i only knew mel was comming bc she called, and she brought me a balloon and a funny card...:) it made me smile. then tara showed up with a dozen pink roses! yay, she rocks. and then a little later, natalie came with a half dozen pink daisies!! my favorite ever! you guys are the best. and stephen came last night to see me and we watched secondhand lions--finally lol. and i'm excited about giving you your present tonight--i hope you like it. i really want to go to PB tonight, but i can barely open my mouth so i figure trying to sing will be useless....oh well. i'm so excited that we're doing Epworth this year--its gunna be so awesome! whoop whoop!

so, i cant believe high school is half over already....it went by fast. i'm glad it did though, its fun sometimes but lets face it--school just isnt the way we like to spend our time is it? i'm excited that i get to go off to college in two years...it'll be nice to get out on my own and meet new people--which will take me a while since i'm shy around people i dont know, but it'll be good for me. i want to go to north carolina so bad, i need to keep my grades up....it'll be to expensive for me to go without a scholorship, even here in florida it will be hard. if i cant go out of state, i want to go somewhere in south florida so i can at least get that whole out on my own, away from home and at college vibe. haha key west would be awesome just bc its so pretty there--but being homophobic like i am it could turn sour. lol.
