My Tooth (Tragic Story) J/K

A couple of weeks ago I was forced against my will to go to the dentist. I am not the biggest fan of the dentist. They seem to be nice people when they are not poking my gums (making them bleed), telling me everything I'm doing wrong, numbing my mouth for hours, gagging me, etc.

But while I was at the dentist they looked at my last x-rays and saw that I had a tooth in there that was suppose to fall out any day 6 months ago. But no. It was still in there. OK. Most people my age and younger have already lost all their baby teeth, but this one liked me too much and didn't want to leave. But they said that the tooth was growing under there (they over-exaggerated.) And that if the one on top didn't get out the tooth under it might get a cavity and then bad stuff. They said that if I didn't get it out in 2 weeks I would of had to go back so they could pull it out. I promised that it would be out in that time. Going back to the dentist to get a shot to numb me for 3 hours while they pull out my tooth isn't the most happy thought. So I worked on it, and worked on it, and worked on it. And nothing. So my dad tried. At first I was willing but it hurt. I spent church that morning in pain.

My dad said that he was going to get it out when he got back from out of town. My sister begged to watch. I told her that she couldn't watch my agony but she did. I made up for it. I was hyperventilating (over exaggeration) and freaking out. But my dad got it out. For the next several minutes or hour, it bled profusely. I had a paper towel to put on it and used pressure but nothing helped. I eventually just left it alone. Well then I look to see what is there and I see about 2 small white dots and that's it. I thought or at least was hoping that there would be more than that. Now I feel like a piece of me is missing. And there is. My tongue moves over there and there is a gap. It's so sad. OK I'll get over it. But my jaw hurt really bad for the rest of the night. My tooth is in the bathroom just so everyone knows. And that night when I brushed my teeth my tooth brush got blood on it because my mouth started bleeding again. But it is all worth it because now I don't have to go to the dentist for 6 months or more.


P.S. I have nothing against dentist, one of my friends wants to be one. I just don't like being gagged (happens a lot), numbed (it hurts), poked to the point of bleeding (how can they say that my gums are bleeding because I don't brush them good enough when they are being poked by a sharp needle like thing, and etc. They are nice, talk to me, good people, bad job. Now I feel bad because I have said all these bad stuff about the dentist and it is not the people. It is the equipment and profession. I don't mean any offence. I like the dentist better because they play K-Love and other Christian Music.

My Room, Manatee Collection,

As many of you know, during Christmas time we redid my room. It use to be all horses and it was nice but then I got too old for it. So we decided to redo the entire room. We painted the walls and all. I think we are nearly finished with all the decorations (I thought we were finished in January but I was wrong) During Spring Break we went to IKEA and got these cool shelf-like things. They are blue and are shaped like V's. I really like it. I love being there and I stopped really using my lights. I will at night but during the day I open the windows. I love the natural light. I have some cork boards that my mom painted the outside. On one I have random stuff and on the other I have the note card things that we get at our youth devo. I also I have a music stand. I also have the shiny treble cliff and 8th notes. It is all pretty much purple, green and blue. (My favorite colors.)

I have a Manatee stuffed animal collection. I have 4. Moe is the biggest and is pretty big, then there is Manny, who I have had for the longest who isn't as big. She's about normal size for stuffed animals. Maggie is the one I got most recently. I got her on my birthday last week. She is about the same size and Manny, but softer. Mindy is my smallest one. Moe and Manny were both from Disney World. I named Moe after one of the manatees that was a the Living Seas. I use to have an obsession with manatees.

Sorry if this was boring. I was just bored.

Random Hyperness/ Boredom

Being hyper and bored is a bad combination for nearly everyone I know. Especially my little sister, Aryra. I really have nothing to add to that.

I just got back from a Christian convention, competition thing. We left Wednesday and just got a back about an hour or 2 ago. We do this every year and don't usually leave until Friday and we usually get back Sunday but since it was Spring Break we changed things up a bit. Wednesday we spent most of the day getting there. But we got to see a friend of ours who moved. That was good. Thursday was sorta fun but not. We took a tour of an office building, went to a aquarium(I got another stuffed manatee), ate a Cheesecake Factory (i was sick) Then we practically shopped for the rest of the day (one of my least favorite activities. We did go to this place called IKEA that was kinda cool. I got some cheep stuff for my room. Well I'm going to skip Friday (because i don't really remember), This morning we did our chorus thing and did great. Except I kinda lost my voice. After that we left.

Dinner tonight was absolutely horrible. It was good but now I'm sick (again). We got ice cream at cold stone. I got a Love It when I should have gotten a Like It and now I am suffering the consequences. But I'll live.

Well I think we might watch a movie tonight. Bye

Random thoughts......

Zippers

How do zippers work? It seems really weird. I don't have much else to say. I was just wondering. I was zipping my purse (it completely unzips) (It's pretty much amazing) and I wondered how so zippers work. I asked my dad. I can kind get how they unzip but not zip. It's so confusing.

B-Day and Presents

My birthday is coming up so I'm getting birthday presents already. I got a Phantom of the Opera poster from London. The tube it was in said royal mail. It was apparently actually in Her Majesty's Theater. We framed it and matted it and it looks really good above my desk. I also got a cool lamp and these things that you put on the wall. I got a big purple treble clef a smaller bluish 16th notes and a light blue 8th notes. They are shiny and the notes are glittery. I also got a chair thing that folds out so you can lie down on it. It is kinda confusing to explain but it is very comfortable. I love it. Hehehe. I am going to have a b-day party soon. It's going to be pretty much amazing.

Radio/Music

I like the radio. I'm listening to David Crowder Band on the radio right now. It is pretty much amazing. I love David Crowder Band. I saw them in concert at Disney World once. It was pretty much amazing. I was really tired though because it was late at night and I had blisters on my feet because of the shoes I had walked in one day. It was pretty bad. But the concert was cool. I was thinking who all I've seen in concert. FFH, Big Daddy Weave, Kutless, Newsboys, Warren Barfield, Addison Road, Hawk Nelson, Toby Mac, Jeremy Camp, Sonicflood?, Rush of Fools, Barlow Girl, Casting Crowns, Steven Curtis Chapman, Chris Tomlin, Rebecca St. James (not too much though) Todd Agnew?, Zoe Girl (not really though), The Afters, Family Force 5, there are probably more. Well I know there are more. We saw the Afters sound check at Disney World once. Interesting. I remembered that because my mom brought it up when we heard something about a contest on Air 1 to have the Afters party at your house. It would be pretty much amazing. Now I'm listening to Kutless. And now Grey Holiday.

What's a Rock Opera?

There is this thing called !Hero the Rock Opera. It is like What if Jesus hadn't come before and he came now and was born in Bethlehem, Penn. So it takes place in New York. It is really cool. I watched it on Youtube yesterday and the Day before. (now Hawk Nelson Friend like That) It has famous people like Michael Tait, and Rebecca St. James, and Paul Wright, It is pretty cool. It's interesting. They have weird dancing. It is a musical and they are singing through most of it. It is about 2 hours long. It starts out with an overview of what has happened. There is a global government I guess called ICON. And that there are no churches and only 1 synagogue in Brooklyn. It says that their are a lot of gangs and stuff. Michael Tait plays !Hero who is Jesus and Rebecca St. James is Maggie who is Mary Magdalene. Paul Wright I think is one of the guys who works for ICON and is sent to investigate !HERO and ends up believing in Jesus (and falling in love with Maggie) The songs have been stuck in my head. I really like one that Maggie sings with !Hero pretty much. It is called Secrets of the Heart. It has some of his miracles like Turning Water into Wine (Audio Adrenaline Under Dog), Healing by the Pool, and Healing the Dead Girl. It also has the feeding of the five thousand where they shot break in cannon thing into the audience. And something similar to the Clearing of the Temple thing. I enjoyed it. It had some boring parts but it was good. Visit the website if you want to know more. I watched in on Youtube.

I like hyperlinks. One of my friends is making a quiz on PowerPoint at school and is using hyperlinks for you to click on to find out the answers. Some might not work.

Hey!

Hey! I haven't posted in like a week. But I don't really have anything to say. I might anyway.

Again I am watching the Aristocats while I'm writing a post. Anyway.... I put on video on my blog. It is towards the bottom. It is really good and the song on it is currently my favorite song ever. I bought it for my iPod. It's pretty much amazing. I think I say that a lot. I don't know. (I know I say that a lot)

We are officially out for Spring Break. Today was an early out. The last 3 periods we watched videos. We had to go to the cheerleading tryout thing 1st period. Horrible. We voted during 2nd but nothing else. In 3rd period we did a mind game. 4th was band so we did usual band stuff. We did nothing in 5th. I just pretty much looked up stuff on the internet and helped my friend with her quiz on powerpoint. During 6th period we started watching We Are Marshal. I was practically crying and depressed all through lunch. Then my friends made it all better. I love my friends. During 7th and 8th i just read even though there were movies going.

Hey!


I haven't posted in a while. Guess What? I went to a Newsboys concert. It was so good. There were 3 bands before them. Article One, NewWolrdSon, and Rush of Fools.
Article One was pretty good. I enjoyed it. I apparently witnessed the most amazing violin solo ever. OK it was amazing. The violinist was really good. He played the violin behind his back. It was cool. Kinda weird.
Sorry but I though NewWorldSun was very weird. It was kinda creepy. I thought of the Addam's Family because of one song I heard. It was OK just not my thing. The guy danced weird.
Then there was Rush of Fools and that was great.
Sorry but Newsboys was the best. I loved it. Newsboys is amazing anyway but I loved it in concert. There was a drum thing and people were they were rising and the whole drum set tilted over completly on its side and started spinning. And Peter Furler was on another smaller drum set that was just rising in the air really high. I would of been too scared. The sang the Breakfast song which was amazing. It might be my favorite song of theirs.
Well I don't have much else to say. Bye.

Music/Phantom of the Opera

Hey! I still am very excited about making state in solo and ensomble. I was so happy when they announced all the people who made it on the announcements.

I love music. I play the saxophone and piano. I have played the saxophone for nearly 4 years I think) And the piano for 8 or 9. (A long time for me) I want to learn how to play the clarinet because I love the clarinet sound (most of the time) My little sister plays the clarinet and my older sister Lizbeth does too. Depends on how busy summer is, I am going to ask if she can teach me. My little sister usually lets me borrow her's. I have tried to learn over a weekend. (but my weekends are sometimes busy) I would also like to learn how to play the bagpipes. I doubt that is going to happen. I kinda play the recorder but I had to learn in 5th grade and I kinda remember. That might be one of my least favorite instruments. It is hardly an instrument. I hope to learn more instruments. I use to play the violin but after about 2 months I quit. I hated it. I thought it was terribly uncomfortable and hard. I only remember learning one song so that bugged me.

The hardest song I have probably ever played on the saxophone (I am listening to it right now) was a song we played for All Region Band. It was really hard. It was the March from 1941. I think there is a movie called 1941 and that song is from it. It is probably the hardest song I have ever played. I loved it though. It was so hard. I would love to try it again but I kinda doubt that is going to happen. (unfortunatly) It had a lot of confusing fingerings and rhytem (I usually can spell that correctly I just can't think now. It also had a 36th note run. Also the song we did for the sax quartet. It didn't have a key signture and it had a lot of accidentals. All next together. Ahhhhhh. I hated it at first but now it is ok. (ok i might love it just because I made state with it.

The beginning of the school year was my first time to march. I loved it. Our show was the Phantom of the Opera. (loved it) I love Phantom. I saw it on Broadway last summer and I loved it. During that thime I was doing Phantom at school and for piano lessons, and one of my friends gave me the CD so I listened to it all the time. I eventrually stopped.

Last night I got to see one of the guys who played the Phantom on Broadway. He sang a lot of songs. (He sang Music of the Night!) I loved it. He was really good and funny.

Well I don't really have anything else to say. Bye
