Its been a week and three days since the very first day that I was supposed to get my braces. And here I am, without any braces at all. "And why is that?" you might ask. Well, its because I have to get 4 teeth pulled. So I only got the bracket things glued on. Now I have to wait a week to get my teeth pulled and another to get the wiring done. And now I can't smile anymore because the bracket things look stupid. I hate them right now. I can barely eat right now because the bracket things get in the way and they also scratch my tongue whenever I chew. Maybe its just me but I use my tongue while I eat and I bet that after a while, I won't be able to taste certain flavors for a while. It even hurts my tongue when I sip through a straw.
After going to the dentist's, my mom, my little brother, and I went to the Great Mall to do some shopping. I got a pink shirt from BeBe, 2 pairs of jeans from Abercrombie, a small towel for the floor of my bathroom from Marshalls, and a bottle of the spirit of the moonflower body lotion from Bath and Body Works. I got a total of about $127 there. Then we went to Wal-Mart where I got a really pretty but kind of thin jacket and a pink t-shirt that saids stuff about dance. And the total of that was less than half the price of a pair of jeans from Abercrombie. I didn't get to go to American Eagle though because we barely got through half of the Great Mall before eating dinner and the closing time for all the stores. But the shopping made me forget about the stupid brackets on my teeth for a while. I bet that if I hadn't gone shopping, I might've cried when I got home because I hated the way the brackets looked.
I have a total of 5 classes in which I have homework from this year. And out of those classes, I only have 1 homework done and its already Sunday. Its only 3:48am though so I'm planning on sleeping until around 12pm and then focus entirely on homework the rest of the day. I highly doubt that I can do that though. Its not that I don't want to do the homework, its just that its so incredibly boring to be doing that stuff.
Wow! I can't believe that I went from $1.70 last night/this morning to $2 right now. And I wasn't even online to surf BlogMad or be on the online users list. The reminds me that I need to create a new layout and avatar for this blog. I'll have to get to that as soon as I finish my homework and create a binder cover page.
It's weird how the Nutang update blog is visited less often then active members. Shouldn't it be that members should be checking back in once in a while to see the updates? But I guess its better than putting it in the forums because then I'd never remember to check it. The most recent update was about how a member was cheating on Nutang. I would hate it if Nutang had to close down just because of people like them. :( For the part about mainting your blog and readers coming naturally, I kind of don't really blog about everything I really want to say. Because this is an online journal of sorts and its there for people to express themselves. But I edit a lot of my life and thoughts out of my entries so that it'll be "socially acceptable". A while ago, someone asked me if I was here for the comments but I said I wasn't. And I'm not. But I guess my life revolves about what people think about me even if they don't say or write it out. So maybe I am kind of here for the comments. I had started this blog so that I could post every single thought that went through my head but I haven't really done that. I'm afraid of what thoughts will go through people's heads as they read my entries, what they'll think of me and who I am. And maybe the reason for this is because I judge people quite harshly sometimes and I think that they're criticizing me every single moment they come in any kind of contact with me, whether its reading my blog, talking to me on the phone, or just being face to face. And I hate that I'm like that because it creates this lack of self-confidence in my life.
Well, I'm kind of hungry right now so I'm going to go find something to eat and then comment to all those lovely people!

Ouch! I have to go get my wisdom teeth pulled...so it seems we'll be having a toothless/painfuly NuTang club going in a bit. :) All this tooth stuff is giving me a headache! :D
Btw, most ppl forget that there is an update blog because the writer is so omniscient...but of course the newly updated list is a good source for any updates from that blog anyway. It's sad that certain members tried to take advantage of the system. We're watching though, rest assured. :)

congrats on making $2+!!!!! =DDDDD
hm, well, to be honest, the updates blog is hardly ever updated, so if i ever see it updated in the "most recent updates" list, i'll look at it there =3 if not, there's not much point in going there to read it, is there? =3
about not posting everything you want to say... to be honest, i dont have that kind of problem.. if people want to bitch about me or think badly about me after what i have to say it's really up to them to be honest...
plus, there's a wonderous thing called a 'private entry' ;) i use those when i post really personal stuff =]

Smile, even with the brackets (and braces) on!
