the pain of braces

last Sunday, i went to the dentist for the worst experience of my life, braces. for the past 6 months, my parents both had designs for braces, claiming they would straighten my crooked teeth, but for three days in a row now, it has been antagonising.

on Sunday, the exact day i placed the braces, i was told that i would have to cut down on my candy intake, and had to brush after every meal.i could not eat solid food as my teeth hurt when chewing. on that day, i was stuck to eating oats.

Day 2:Monday; something shocking has happened, i feel pain while chewing my food, but an especially acute pain on my front teeth, again i am stuck to eating soft food like porridge. YUCK!

even now while i am writing, the pain is still there. even when trying to sleep, my tongue keeps feeling something foreign on my teeth. when will i adapt to something so new and sudden? only time can tell i guess...

oh no!the dreaded parents teacher meeting is finally here. the only time where the teachers and parents meet. when i think of the overwhelming complaints my parents will receive, i chide myself for being so stupid as to give my parents the consent form.
this year, fortunately, the complaints were not that bad, except for a few teachers like my form teacher, miss lim.she said in her never ending lists of conplaints that i liked to talk a lot,which is not that surprising, because i know thats the truth. what i did not expect is that my mother made such a big fuss out of it.
the first thing she did when she got home was to tell me to get out of my room. i braced myself for a greay scolding and expected a cane to be brandished in my fathers hand. thankfully there was nothing of the sort, just the usual(scolding, reading results etc etc).
thanks to that, i missed mythbusters!
