(no subject)
my sister's leaving for paris tomorrow for her second semester. i'm really excited for her and i know she's going to flip out when she gets there. plus, i'm going to visit her in march/april so it's going to be off the chain.
it's sad to see her go off to another country for four and a half months, but she's at college most of the year anyway so i think i'll be alright. i know pepper isnt too hot about her leaving--when she was packing today, he came into her room and, well,
[it's so hard to get good detail with this dog in a photo cause he's just so...black]
so, that happened.
also today, i was supposed to get a wisdom tooth pulled [no. 17, the lower left, to be precise], but it was rescheduled again after consulting with the surgeon.
i had the strangest experience in the oral surgery office though. an assistant with an eastern european accent called my name and stared at me as i walked towards her. she didnt seem to express any sort of emotion in her actions. she took my coat, and led me to an x-ray machine that sat awkwardly behind the reception desk. she directed me to the machine, explaining that i needed a panorex taken so they could determine the state of my wisdom teeth. she told me to put my chin here, and bite down here, and press your tongue to the roof of your mouth and stay still for seventeen seconds. there was a small mirror in front of me so that i could see myself placing my chin there, biting down there, and staying still for seventeen seconds. she disappeared from my periphery and the machine started up. as seventeen seconds passed, extensions of the panorex machine revolved around my head. they made noises from star wars, so i closed my eyes and for a second thought r2d2 was speaking to me. the whirrs and beeps and deetley-deets and ccchhhhhhhs went on for what seemed like more than seventeen seconds, and i started to laugh. but i laughed so that my tongue stayed pressed at the roof of my mouth, and i laughed so that i could still stay still for seventeen seconds, even though it seemed like more than seventeen seconds.
so i'm just finishing up the work i have left for monday, which pretty much means slaving over twelve calculus problems i dont know how to do because i forgot what calculus is over break. anyway, granted i do well on my finals and get a good grade report for this semester, my parents will let me go to nyc in february to see joe and alex. this also means i'd get to go to the all night dance party dj'ed by girl talk, which would be perfect.
so i said i'd summarize my new year's eve a few days ago, but i guess that's pretty irrelevant now that its a week into the new year. also, i seem to start every paragraph with the word "so".
so sue me.
