Wisdom Teeth

Today I got all 4 of my wisdom teeth out…

First, I couldn’t eat anything from midnight yesterday to 1pm today which was awful since I usually get hungry 4-6 hour after my last meal.

During the surgery all I remember is the doc putting a needle in my arm, asking me “so where do you go to school?” and then waking up in a different room with a nurse putting a bandage on my arm O.o

My entire lower face was numb until a couple hours ago which got me REALLY scared; one of the possibilities (30% I was told) was having permanent numbness after the surgery. But as of now it is all gone away and I am able to talk and eat (soft foods) again xD

As the painkillers are wearing out, I can start to feel the 4 corners of my mouth throb but being optimistic I will await the full pain, endure it, and move on with my life~ The best part is, before this, when I closed my mouth, the top and bottom wisdom teeth on my left side always hit together before anything else and it made it REALLY hard to smile naturally in public, something I live be doing and now I can again :D

Hoping everything works out quickly and for the best
