I only had mine for a year a week and 6 days and then had a retainer for a year after that. :)
Hopefully the new one will be a better fit!

Just make her do them. Because she needs to stop thinking that you'll do her chores, because it only making things worse for her in the long run. You know you can do them later. She needs to learn to step up and do her share of the work.

I am so behind in this thread! @[email protected]

No problem poet, catch up from now onwards ? :D

@Dreamer
I am sure the new one will be a much better fit.
I think the new one I am going to get the moldings for is a metal retainer.

After i get it done, I am actually going to be stopping going to be appointments.
At least that is what they said.
The fact i wont be going to the orthodontist gives me some relief. XD

Yeah very true.
I plan to move to chicago and that is like a 15 hour drive from where i live now.
So Once i go, i am gone >___>

Poet: Chatty fingers will do that!

Fuu-Chan: One can hope that it's a better fit! :)

OH, that's lovely! :D I remember feeling that relief when they told me the same.
Hopefully they'll hold true to what they told you.

That's REALLY far from home! O.o I'm 7 1/2 hours from home, and I don't like it at times.
But do what's best for you. :]

I'll try, but I like to go through and make sure everything is going alright

Just do your best.

I really should be writing papers and getting things done to finish off the semester.
*goes on a quest to find her motivation*

@Dreamer
Indeed.
I'll know by tomorrow.

Haha yeah. Well i hate this state and chicago is where i want to live
for many reasons.
But my sis is gonna help me move in. she is mostly gonna do the driving as she loves driving.
And road trips.

So it should be fun.
Bu that isn't happening for another 2-3 years.

Fuu-Chan: Hopefully it's good news!!

Ah, I can understand that. And that's nice of your sister to help you move when you do get there.
Road trips can be fun - but I need breaks to get out and stretch as the last road trip I took, it hurt my back because we didn't get enough breaks to get out and 'unfold' ourselves from our seats.

Awww, darn! I've only got another year down where I am now - not quite sure how I'm supposed to make it - there are quite a few factors stressing me out, but I'm not sure what I'm doing once I finish down here.

@Dreamer
I hope so!
My sister and I will probably eat out to lunch and stretch and all that. My sister has to stretch every now and then
and just going to see our cousin that takes us 3 hours to get there is hard on her.
So we will. :3

I plan things out thoroughly so I know what kind of job i am going to plan to get when i move.
I plan my whole life out. XD

Fuu-Chan: That sound like it'll be fun! :]

Just know that even though you have things planned, just know that things don't always go to plan - I'm finding that out the hard way. Just be prepared, and know that it'll work out even if things don't go according to the plan that you have. :)

ONLY one paper to go, and skimming through a few books to make it look like I've read them. >.< I really didn't but shush! Almost there! My plans of getting both papers done tonight really don't seem feasible, as my brain is tired, but hey, at least I'm almost done with what I need to do for tomorrow!

Chatty indeed. It's wonderful to see this thread so lively

I'm definitely going to need one or two other people to help me monitor this thread.

Hello, everyone. I am very pain fogged today.

And have little energy. It has not been a good day, so I am cheering myself up by making my avy a very bloody stitch zombie.

Zombies are my favorite thing.

Sorry to hear that it's been a bad day for you, Zira! :(
Is it helping, the making of the zombie?

*hides from the zombie*

Bad days are never fun :(

Cloud, yeah, zombies make me happy. And she couldn't hurt you, not really. She's full of stitching which would make swinging that hammer hard, and her mouth is sewn shut. Nothing to worry about, dear.

Poet, they really aren't.

I still am not a real fan of zombies or blood - but if it helps make you happy, I can try to put up with it. :) *curls up in her pile of pillows*

Tired - I just moved my bed back to it's original place which meant moving my dresser and desk as well... but hey, one less thing to do. :P

Oh, I can make her less bloody? I don't mind doing that if it will make you feel better Being able to do it in the first place was the helpful bit.

And, yeah, getting thing all back to the proper place means less to do later

That would help, thanks.
Yeah! Now to just finish my last essay - hopefully by Tuesday, I'm not going to push myself to finish it now, I just will have to make another trip to campus to turn it in, but that's ok - and I'll be done! ((Although I still do need to pack. :P))

Poet: I just saw your edit to your post about helping monitor the thread - I can help out, as much as I can. Not sure how much I'll be on come end of this week - but I can try to help out. :)

This better, Cloud?

And I hope you do well with the essay!

Yeah, thanks.

Thanks! I'm either starting it tomorrow morning or just writing the whole thing on Tuesday, and then if that happens, probably turning it in on Wednesday. We'll see how this goes. I just need to show it who's boss. My brain is just tired at the moment. Taking baby steps towards that goal of freedom!

No problem, sweetheart

A tired brain won't help much, but it isn't til tuesday Take the time you need to get it done

Tired brains never help much ever, that's for sure. Mine keeps threatening to go off on holiday early. Can't allow that to happen quite yet, and it's not very happy with me.
Yeah, and that way, I do have a few days buffer just in case - as we have till 4 pm on Friday to turn it in. :)

Hee. That's good. Here's hoping you get it done before that, though! No one likes slipping in just under the wire. Better not to have that sword hanging over you.
