Window A

oh my god... the anaesthetic is wearing off... my entire mouth aches like shit and i look like a victim of battery... quite scary really... the whole works: bloody chin, above lip area... there are bad scrapes.. and my lips are now truly like fish lips... twice as large as before! and kahli knows they looked like fish enough before! this is so surreal. i mean yeah.. i've read the whole crap abt how if your tooth falls out you're supposed to keep it in milk and everything first and get yourself double quick to a dentist to reattach it.. but how the hell was i supposed to think that it would be me? i always imagined myself as the person rushing to get milk to put the tooth in... not the person being rushed to the dentist :/

oh yeah :) according to my mom. i've had like incredibly bad luck with mishaps... first time was when i was 3 or sthg... fell off the baby chair and landed on my head... it was christmas eve. then when i was in k2... scalded my hand with boiling oil or sthg... it was another holiday.. and today's vesak day.. and i get a battered face... had better treat holidays with caution now! *grins*

ah well. am comforting myself with the thought that i'm a pain junkie now.. but the pain's coming back... ah well. shall recount to you what happened so i don't have to repeat the story again and again... so. we were having cheerleading prac. and we were even finishing already... wanted to run thru our stunts (me and charlene) so we started with the flip. i thought it was trial. she thought it was for real. and sigh. the next thing i knew was liquid in my mouth.. didn't even hurt... i wasn't even going to start crying until charlene started crying like shit... and i started too.. then of course. since it's a public holiday and all there weren't even any dentists open.. sheesh. so. got sent back home by another huishan and her friend and my aunt sent me to nuh...

it's so crappy! even tho i'm standing there clutching a bloody gauze in my mouth and the bottle of soya milk which my tooth was in, i had to clear sars tests... and after about an hour all they did was to let a nurse ask me how i fell. sheesh. and thank gdness my dad somehow managed to contact a dental surgeon who was willing to go back to help me re-attach the bloody tooth... ah well. so now the situation is this. tooth no. 21 is temporarily reattached till i get it x-rayed tmr... and even then it might not be 'externally reabsorbed'. and even if it is. it would only have a lifespan of 10 to 15 years. sigh. how lousy!!

sigh again. don't really know what to say now.. feel damn stupid... but decided i absolutely *had* to document this! haha :D like once in a lifetime... not that i particularly even *want* this one incident.. sigh. ah well. evryone's been really sweet about this but seriously. i think i'm going to be okay :):):)

btw. now haojie thinks i'm crazy cos i sounded a bit too happy in my sms-es i think :) anyway. am just hoping the swelling will subside. and i won't have to look this ugly for the rest of my life. and the whole-life-flash-before you shit? it doesn't work. or maybe i just wasn't in a lifethreatening situation... cos all there was was numbness.
