No video today guys, sorry. :( But today, second official day of Spring Break 2013 and oh boy, what a Spring Break it is; NOT. Rochester actually had the nerve to snow today. Like what the actual fuck; I need a tan. I want to just baste myself in the warm summer sun and just soak up it's heat in my skin. Today at 2:00pm I got my lovely braces tightened. I finally got to switch the color of my braces to baby sky blue which is what I wanted since I first got them, then when I got my bottom braces on like 3 days later, I made them dumb decision to get stupid light purple braces, so I had to wait until now to get them changed again. I first got them on February 15th, 2013. It took so long for them to tighten them again. My next tightening appointment is at the end of May, so it's like, what the hell. The main orthodontist dude even said instead of the normal 6-8 week tightening regiment, they would put me on a 4 week regiment to speed up my treatment because I want this whole thing to be over by the end of next year... not looking to swell now but, gotta hope I guess. So after I got my rad new braces, I went home and tried to take a nap with my terrible tooth ache about 2 hours before winter drumline practice. No success in that trying experience, so I just made my way to winter drumline when the time came to only face more discrimination and lack of trust. Just the usual yet rude things that happened at tonight's practice sparked something in me. It triggered to wanna make my first rant video called "Trust Issues". I have not only lose trust in the people I know personally but also just in humanity in general. Everyone hates everyone and that's just how life works. Ba-da-bing-ba-da-boom that's life.

Now I'm just sitting here in my family room with my mom watching Seinfeld. Pretty hilarious show. My braces hurt like a bitch and I am using my tongue to poke at my sore teeth and gums. Now with braces, they always feel loose. Even though they are strapped in with these thick metal wires, I feel like they are going to fall out at any moment. The wires are sticking out of my braces on each side and they are cutting the side of my cheeks on the inside open a little. It's kind of normal, I guess. I am trusting my orthodontists that they are aware of what they are doing with my face. As they say, beauty is pain; pain is beauty! That's all my life has ever been about, and all it will ever be about, and that is absolutely okay. This day has been a day of being myself and dealing with the things that life throws at us daily. Oh daily, another pun intended in that, but nobody will know. Have a good night, everyone.
