wisdom teeth

Finishing off a great week is something not so great. I've been dreading this day because in an hour I'm going to get my wisdom teeth pulled! I'm writing my post now because if I tried to after, who knows what I'd be even typing about. Or, if I'd even be able to get my laptop open. Has anyone gotten theirs removed? How was your experience? The part I'm dreading the worst is the post-procedure. I love to eat and I prepared myself with yogurt, pudding, and popsicles. I hope I'm fully healed by Monday because I have a big exam to take. I also need to be studying this weekend so I hope I'm oriented. I'm kind of scared too because I'm going to be awake during the procedure and just numbed. My best friend got hers removed a couple weeks ago by the same place I'm going, and she also was up. She said she was getting anxious because she could hear them pulling the tooth out and that made her uncomfortable. What does that even sound like!? I guess I'll let you guys know in my next post or in class.     

    The days leading up to today were fine though. Fall break was a good two days off to relax and catch up on some notes and assignments. Also used to binge watch TWO new seasons of some of my favorite shows: On My Block and Sex Education. When I binge, I binge. On My Block was short though, so that wasn't bad. But, I really didn't let myself move off of the couch all day until I finished the new season of Sex Education. Then I just had two more days left for my school week because I don't have class Fridays, so the weekend came around quick.

       After watching the documentary, "After Tiller," I feel more compassion, respect, and empathy towards healthcare providers and women. This documentary is showcasing the hardships doctors who perform third trimester abortions go through, especially after the assassination of their colleague and friend, George Tiller. There wasn't one scene in particular that stood out to me, because the whole documentary felt like the "same" story, but with different women and reasons as to why they're getting an abortion. When the women were explaining different health issues their babies' had, I was getting teary eyed. It's definitely heartbreaking hearing about these rare and life threatening diseases, and it's even worse when the parents think it's their fault that this sickness happened. I couldn't imagine being in that situation and having to make that type of decision. The way the doctors guided the parents, and really listened to them and wer...

Experimental Design Reflection

-
      While doing the experimental design project, I learned a lot about writing, and about myself as a writer. I usually don't use statistics and data based evidence or diction in my writing, it's mostly analysis and more pathos based. For this project I got to do both though. My group chose to recruit volunteers for Fair Haven Rape Crisis Center organization. While looking on the website, there was a lot of data and logistics, so I had to first understand what everything meant in order to analyze it. But, this topic of providing help and support to people who have been sexually assaulted, is very emotion and feeling based, which is how I like to write and topics I like to write about.      My role in the group was to do the annotated bibliography, which is what I wanted to do because I wanted to find and read different articles that could support our organization to get a better understanding of the whole thing and to help for the project. I think I ...

end of November 🦃🍂

    The end of the month, similar to the end of the semester, creeped up on us so quick! To follow up from my last blog, my birthday weekend was so fun. I'm grateful for my friends and family for taking time to make me feel special. I am so grateful for having a big family because Thanksgiving day was so much fun. Literally all my cousins and aunts and uncles were in town this year and we were together all day. It's really the little moments that you should cherish and remember forever. This mini break was well needed to just take time to relax and catch up on sleep. I also helped my mom put up the Christmas tree and decorate outside. I love Christmas and we literally did it the day after Thanksgiving.      Unfortunately, I didn't take advantage of the break school-wise. I came into break saying to myself, "You're gonna get so much work done and study to be ahead!" and I didn't really do a thing regarding school work. That being said, I'm going to bing...
