You've got me.
teeth are important. and I do promise to go , more often.
I've never had a cavity or a problem, and just havn't had the time or cash
to go since living in canada.
Smoking is not good. I'll never smoke.
Maybe my mental health is deteriorating but I'm soley blaming it on
undergraduate life of a music student. This is tough. I find that this,
being a studnet business allows me to live from one assignment or problem
as the case may be. recital to jury or flu to bronchitis. I can't stop the
clock b/c I'm ill, the world won't stop for me, I found that out. I played
opera with blood comming from my left wisdom tooth. what can i do? I played
an orchestra concert recently with my ear plugs in my nose to stop the
mucus during the tacet. I just do what I have to do. I want to play bass
clarinet, and if I have to do this bachelor stuff than I will. but its hard.
I just want to thank ya'll for the great horror stories and the advice.
