{AMANDACHAN♥}

Removing your wisdom teeth when you're young is a wise thing to do when you wise up to the fact that your gums harden with age.

I remember that fateful day so distinctly, I was lying down strapped down to a surgical bed, helpless to the nurse that asked me to open my mouth.

Okay maybe i wasn't strapped. But you get the idea.

So i was just lying there helpless while the nurse prepared 3 -THREE!- needles filled with anaesthesia and he tapped the syringe and stuff.

Him: it's gonna hurt a little.
Me: uurghay.
-injects-
Me: WHAT THE FUCK

Evidently I couldn't say that cos they put some white thing on my lips to keep me from snapping my jaw on the poor nurse's fingers (we have a bite force of 500kg, apparently) but I made my discomfort inevident by screaming within

Then came the next injection

It didn't hurt as much, so (Y)! Both were injected on the inside of my gums. The third one was on the outside of the gums and I just felt motion but no pain.

Nurse: -pokes using some long rod thing- does it hurt?
Me: uh uh (=no)
Nurse: what about now? (he poked the other side pretty hard and it was a freaking sharp needle wtf)
Me: ARGGGAA!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nurse: Aha the anaesthesia works!
Me: -thinking- good job you want a gold star???

Even though you couldn't feel pain but it doesn't mean your other senses are not on high alert. You see all that instruments, it looks like something out of a Final Destination movie. And he put a chainsaw in my mouth or some sort of jackhammer and started pounding my teeth, it didn't hurt but the vibrations were HORRIBLE, my brain was jiggling in my skull for nearly 10 minutes.

After the doctor is done with mutilating my mouth (it sure felt that way), he cotton padded that part and handed me, somewhat triumphantly, a little bag with a little wisdom tooth.

AND A SLAB OF MY GUM.

Which means they sliced the top of my gum off, remove the tooth and thought that lump of gum would be a good souvenir. The best souvenir has gotta be the swelling on the left side of my cheek, making me look so beautifully asymmetrical for a week and more!

So yes Cheryl have fun this Wednesday:D can't wait to hear all about it from you!
