$400 for a death sentence

Yesterday morning I had to go to the dentist. I don't really mind going or anything, it's just that I have had my bracers for a little over two years now, and I am really fed up. Every time I have gone since June this year, they keep telling me my bracers will come off in my next appointment. Well it still hasn't happened yet!! I don't really mind the bracers or anything, but they keep getting my hopes up for nothing!!!

My appointment yesterday was conveniently placed at the same time as my double of music, though. I'll just have to do my presentation on Baroque music next week then. Oh well...

The rest of the day was pretty normal. I got out of going for math lessons because I was starving and my teeth were hurting really badly. Mashed potatoes really does not fill me at all. I need to chew! I still can't chew properly right now, besides at the back of the right side of my mouth. It is not as comfortable as it sounds.

Today was also pretty good. My French course work could have gone better, but at least I did good in Social Studies. There was a disco at lunch but I really was not in the mood to see 13 year olds flex on each other.

President's was better than expected. The people from the army could not come again today (I think they're avoiding us lol), so our leaders were telling us what we should pack in our ruck sacks. I think our first hike is in November. On Saturday we have to carry two jalitres of water to hold on our backs again. And then I have to go practice a dance that involves a lot of hand movement. How fun.

In President's one of our leaders was also telling us how there are people in the bush that they cannot control, and how we should deal with them if the situation arises. They made it really creepy by saying that "there may be some lonely people out there". Now tell me that does not remind you of a Lifetime movie. A small part of me wants to reconsider this.

My sister upset me, but what's new? She honestly thinks I would tell my entire class her business, which is one of the most hurtful things she has said to me (and she has said a lot of hurtful things). But whatever. Maybe now she'll stop telling me all of this useless information (and steal another one of my friends to tell it to instead). Either way I promised myself that I would not let her get to me, and boy am I trying.

I am really hungry right now. I tried to chew something during my dinner, but that did not end well. I think my mouth will feel better by tomorrow though. Plus tomorrow is Friday which means I have dance, so I will survive. I am completely serious when I say dance is the only thing I look forward to during the week. I am aware that this sounds a bit sad.

Oh, and Grey's Anatomy was pretty good. One of the better episodes of the season. In my opinion. Although I have been rather indifferent about it since it started back. I think my feelings are really broken this time...

this "personal blogging" thing doesn't seem as hard as I thought
