Wisdom Teeth Removal Thoughts

Because I'm worrying so much that means I'll be okay right?

I am getting my wisdom teeth out. All of them. I'm terrified, I have been kind of laughing it off not really freaking out much. But I'm a nervous wreck. My stomach is in knots, my heart is racing, and I feel mini panic attacks when I think about it. I figured I was not the only one thinking this way, so I thought I would write down a list of things that I have been thinking that have me worried.

1. I can't eat real food for awhile.

I get to live off of jello, pudding, smoothies, and mashed potatoes for a couple days.

2. I can't have caffeine or alcohol for days.

I have caffeine everyday and alcohol would totally help all the pain I'm about to be in.

3. I will be in a bunch of pain.

I'm not ready for this pain.

4. People keep telling me horror stories!

Like can you wait until after I get out of surgery first?

5. I can't brush my teeth either.

Or even use mouth wash.

6. What if they don't give me enough to knock me out or to numb me?

What if I fucking feel everything???!!!!

7. What if they give me too much?

I could die!

8. What if my teeth are so bad that there are other problems?

What if they have to call my dad? I could fucking die!

9. Why did they make me tell them my closest relative?

If I'm like on the plug and they have to ask him if they should pull it or something?

10. I'll probably be fine because of all the worrying I'm doing.

Right?

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
