yay!

i pulled it out

:) :) :) :) :) :)

the blog below was when i was hurting a LOOOOOT from a cavity toothache i was having. It hurt so much, i thought i could hold it for a week after exams, but it got really really bad. It started on saturday, it hurt but i used orajel and advil, the next day it helped a bit but i started to realize that my tooth just got worse, and i couldn't even sleep for the whole night. On monday i had a midterm, i was literally KICKING AND SCREAMING in the car while gencan was driving me to school. I was asked to take only one tylenol because two would make me drowsy. It hurt too much so i took two, but in less than one hour, it hurt so much my face was all swollen, my eyes turned red, and my teeth were knashing aginst each other, my jaws were shivering due to the pain. i finished my exam really fast and just ran to the dentist.
There's this saying in chinese, "Nga tong cham gor dai beng" (toothaches are worst than being really really sick)
It's so true.
I didn't eat for the whole day and i wasnt even hungry because the pain was so consuming, mind and spirit.
I kept praying, "God please take the pain away!"
I kept on thinking that this kind of pain is so minute compared to people who are tortured or have really bad diseases, but man, it hurt. and i'm not usually someone who would complain about physical pain.

Anyway, i went to the dentist, he saw me first because i was an "emergency" case, then he pulled my tooth out in 2 minutes. It was like 2 inches long, a molar, and it was ALLLL rotten and decayed on the top. it was totally DISGUSTING. I kept it, but i won't show anyone coz..i'm too ashamed of how nasty it is hahaa.
Now i feel so good i am so thankful. I'm so thankful to have such a supportive family when i was hurting so much.

When i showed genuine my tooth, he was like "ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww" and he told me to smell it. I refused.
Who would smell their decayed, rotten, nasty, black, tooth?
So we laughed it off and was kind of dumb-founded by such a stupid question.
I went back to my room, looked at the ugly tooth on a little piece of kleenex on my desk, then..i...sniffed it.
It didn't smell bad.
HAHAHAHA.
