(this is from wikipedia but looks EXACTLY LIKE MINE!)

I pulled out my wisdom tooth.

They form between the age of 17 and 25, and I suppose as the name suggests you'd have garnered enough wisdom to evoke their magical growth.

Hell it has been one tough year and I think I've learned all the wise things I possibly could to promote this ostentatious tooth of mine that grew so towards the front of my mouth I had ulcers and couldn't even close my mouth. I struggled for 2 days and nights in pain thinking whether I really would have to let it go. Yes, it's inevitable, but there is a foolish part of me called 'Idealistic Debbie', and whatever she says goes man. She says I'm going to keep all four of my wisdom teeth cos they're gonna grow perfectly well, and I just completely believe her. She says this is love, she says this is good, she says... Yes, yes and yes.

I almost fainted when I saw the Dentist take out the pliars but I must say he did an excellent job. I have the disgusting tooth- HELL YEAH I'M GONNA KEEP IT!

The Dentist said that probably I'll have to take out the rest cos the x-ray shows that they are growing so rebelliously (wow, where did they get their genes from?). When you're confronted with the x-ray you really have no choice but to open your mouth to self-impose torture. Shit, it really grew so badly my untrained eye can tell.. that tooth's not where it's supp to be.

I guess I am a very wise woman indeed.

I've learnt:

Your imagined pain is always greater than the actual pain.

There my next wisdom tooth. Just grew a bit more.

I've learnt:

Manage your expectations.

If you set them too high you'll be disappointed. If you set them too low you'll compromise. Sounds like common sense right? But so fucking hard to learn.

Okay, any smarter and I'm going for my next extraction.

I love my family and I love my friends. I couldn't have asked to be born to know better people, although they may have pained me, everything and everyone has fallen into place for me to learn exactly what I need to know.

I am at peace.
