Ok , back to the usual .

Saturday
I couldn't sleep well for the night as I was quite nervous/afraid of extraction .

I even dreamt of myself dropping 5 teeth and require tooth implant to put my braces . It's really an unpleasant dream .

Dear came to my house in the morning to accompany me for extraction . We went to Far East Plaza for breakfast .

and guess what ?
I mistook Far East Plaza for the place where my dental clinic was located . It supposed to be at Lucky Plaza .

We quickly walked to Lucky Plaza as I was late for my appointment .

Dear accompanied me into the room where I went through the whole process . Both of us were equally scared . LOL .

The dentist told me that he will do filling first . He applied this disgusting 'miranda strawberry' alike flavour thingy on my gums .

After asking me to rinse my mouth , he took out this big and long silver syringe . Seriously , you will never want to see how it's like .

As I have needle phobia and I wasn't prepare for the injections , I pushed the dentist's hand and turned aside .

Embarrassed to say , I cried for about nearly 5 minutes before calming down to start the injections . The dentist assured me that it will not be painful .

Just as he promised , it's not painful except for the inner gum injections . Just to numb my gums for extraction , I endured 12 times or more injections .

For the extraction , dear described the tool used as something like the vernier caliper & F clamp . I didn't really notice it . LOL .

Though I couldn't feel the pain , I can feel the pressure applied to pull out the teeth . The dentist really applied lots of force !

After the whole thing , my gums bleed . So I got to bite the gauze to stop the bleeding . I think the bleeding lasted for about 2 hours plus ? LOL .

Imagine walking halfway and the blood dripped down from your mouth . It's scary .

By the time everything has ended , Dear became 'jelly' and lost all his appetite . He begins to fear about the wisdom tooth extraction .

Oh well , if it's wisdom tooth , I will definitely request for GA to let me fall asleep . I don't want the feel the fear .

After extraction , I went around shopping with my face mask . People look at me as if I got some terminal diseases . It's like for goodness sake , wear mask very strange mehhs ? =.=

I got dear's help for buying my foundation . Since I couldn't talk properly , he tried to help me to ask the sales girl some questions . LOL .

We went back home after buying things as we have wedding dinner to attend at night .


Wearing the face mask . I looked strange mehhs ?!


Warning: It's disgusting . Look at your own risk.

























The extracted teeth. I didn't even know that the roots are that long .



After we reached home , we rested for awhile before preparing to go out .


My new foundation , casing and mascara .

During evening , we went back to dear's house. Many relatives were at his house .

The wedding dinner was held at Orchid Country Club . It was dear's cousin's wedding .

The place is really nice and grand , different ambiance from the section where I always follow mummy for golf .

Not to mention , many people attended the wedding . Just by dear's relatives , it's considered many of them . Big family xD

No photos for the wedding as I was too lazy to take it out from my bag . LOL .

The whole dinner was nice . They even hired a singer (not those celebrities) to sing for the night.

After the dinner , I went back to dear's house before taking a cab home (:

Sunday
I missed my bus again ! Not to mention that I was a little late for my ballet class .

It spoiled my mood for the day . Stupid chores . Think about it really made my blood boil .

Ballet class was alright , except that it's a little tiring with the sautes . I think I am a little better at doing battement fondu ((:

However , I suck at doing Releve and Rond de jambe with my left leg . I just couldn't get the turn out right :(

Ok , new things that I have learnt at ballet class:

Changement de pied - Literally "changing of feet". A jump in which the feet change positions in the air.

For example, beginning in fifth position with the right foot front, plié and jump, switching the right to the back, landing with the left foot front in fifth position.

In the Vaganova's method, petit changement de pieds indicates a changement where the feet barely leave the floor.

After class , I went to dear's house and at night we went to Queensway for dinner together .

The extraction really gives me a hard time to eat , including those soft food . Just like the porridge below:


I can't even bite the damn 油条. It really hurts to bite it .

Sighh~ I think it will be worse after putting separators and braces on .

Yesterday
It's a long day and I really hate it . The timetable for Monday is way too packed .

I was in a bad mood for the whole day . Monday blue ~

Today
Seventeen Magazine (June issue) is out ! My fellow friends and I am featured in the magazine as the contestants of Seventeen Summer Babes and Hunks contest 2010 (:

Here are some of the snapshots which I have taken in the train:


My eyes look damn small :(

Ok , back to the post .

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO NALA ((:

I skipped 2 lectures as I was too tired . I went to school at around 1pm .

OCRM lecture was damn boring . I really hate the rate of reaction chapter - culprit of failing me at my block test back in 2008 .

It's really a killer to me , regardless how easy the questions may be phrased in polytechnics.

School ended early today as 2 tutorials are either cancelled or postpone . I waited for dear in school till he booked out .

We went to Jurong Point's Din Tai Fung for dinner .


To me , the food isn't as nice as Crystal jade . It doesn't really worth the money .

After dinner , we walked around the place for yogurt .


and finally , we got our peach yogurt with peach topping (:

We went back home/camp after eating it .

Tomorrow , it's a short day for us as we only have practical . We will be going for buffet or something to celebrate Nala's birthday .

At night , I will be going for Majolica Majorca's Chapter 26 workshop . I will blog about it soon ((:

bad mood + tired .

Hahaha...you're not the only one who has been embarassed at the dental clinic. There are lots of people who still have needle phobia, even though they have undergone many dental procedures. Well, it's good that you didn't feel any pain during the procedure.

Haha, I was quite lucky for not feeling any pain. Most comments in forums have mentioned that extraction is the worst pain throughout the braces period . Oh well, other than the dentist's experieces, maybe people define pain differently (:
