Year Long Goals

Have you heard of the 365 photo challenge?

Well it's basically where you take one photo everyday for a year and post it to...well whatever social network you like.

I have decided that I will take this challenge starting Christmas day. I'm thinking of posting every picture for this project on facebook as well as making a Tumblr account. With the Tumblr I'm hoping to post mini stories of my day or whatever random thoughts I think up that go along with the picture. It's mainly for fun but we will see where it all goes by Christmas 2011.

34 days until Christmas! I haven't been this excited for Christmas for a while. I think it is because I have a new understanding of God and Jesus. Perhaps it is just the joy that I can do so much for other now. I don't really know but I am excited!

Oooowwweee

Well today was a good day. Class was fun and I was in an overall happy mood...or at least I was until I went to the dentist today. My reason for heading to the dentist was to get 4 teeth pulled, and no, they weren't wisdom teeth. I have braces and my orthodontist told me I had too many teeth in my mouth so that is why they were pulled.

It didn't hurt thanks to all the numbing shots. They gave me 10 in total which numbed me up so much that my eye lids even went numb. It really wasn't that bad but I did pysch myself out so much that I was sweating and shaking. At one point the dentist ask me what I was saying, I hadn't realized I was mumbling my inner prayers out loud. It was funny trying to talk afterwards but I didn't enjoy the awkward tingling all over my face. I've always wondered why everything feels so swollen when your numb.

As of now I lay in my bed, watching television, and playing tetris while trying to avoid pain with the medication they gave me. The numbness is gone and I'm thankful for that. Tomorrow is suppose to be the day of ultimate pain but my lovely mother has stocked me up with a stack of good movies, comfy slippers, and soup! God Bless all the Mommas out there. Of course...I'll have to do some homework in between there but overall it should be a slightly pleasant day tomorrow.
