Holliday Spirits (20)

You know what? I had my whole Thanksgiving break planned out. I was going to have a blast playing soccer, hanging out with friends, and getting high of the holiday spirits. Then my parents told me, "Son, you’re getting your wisdom teeth pulled on Tuesday." It hit me like a boxer receiving an unexpected blow by his opponent. "What, my wisdom teeth?" I exclaimed, "That will ruin it all!"

Previous horror stories from my friends had given me a clear vision that getting my teeth extracted would not be a pleasant experience. Just imagine four teeth being yanked out of your head, resulting with cheeks the size of basket balls-witch everyone would laugh at and say with a bantering voice," look at the cute little boy with the cheeks. Isn’t he just adorable?" Ok it wasn’t that bad, but it wasn’t that great either. Getting up every six hours to get high of your meds, and drinking smoothies all week isn’t that fun. It sucked! Not being able to eat the delicious Thanksgiving dinner, but the thing that really sunk my ship was that I could not eat my favorite pie.

Now that it’s all over with I realize that getting your wisdom teeth taken out does not make you dumber than you already were. That’s pretty much all I have to say about my break. Oh, here is some advise: when getting your wisdom teeth pulled, schedule it for a time when nothings planned and you were already planning to be board.
