New French word of the week: dents de sagesse…. otherwise known in English… Wisdom Teeth. Lets talk about the most horrifying and terrible experience of my life. Getting these two damn teeth out of my mouth caused so much havoc and pain it is kind of ridiculous. I went from crying from pain in kitchen (yes, my roommates were probably tired of me complaining but they stuck around!) to screaming on the dentist’s chair during surgery (I am still scarred for life) to crying and bleeding on the streets of Lille (shoutout to my roommate for picking me up from the dentist and dealing with my emotions) to being on bed-rest for almost 5 days.

Back to my roommates, I’ve already mentioned it a few times already in this post but I really love them at the moment. We have had our ups and downs but we are connecting so well right now and they have been supper supportive since my surgery. They have been patient and spending time with me and listening to me complain. Tonight, we had a movie night and had a family dinner (which they made me separate plate since I have temporary eating restrictions). I’m most definitely going to miss them.

Next update… I am about to embark on a huge adventure soon! I am crazy excited but also I am doing the thing where I get a little nervous right before.  What if it is a bad idea? What if I am not as smart as I think I am? Am I being safe? Am I making wise decisions? Etc… When I went to Istanbul, right before i was super nervous about my safety. I was traveling internationally for the first time alone and I was completely fine until 3 days before. Then all the sudden, I am nervous. What I ended up doing was making each decision one at a time. If I feel safe, I will so this, if not, I will do that. I am just going to do the same on this upcoming trip. I know I will have the time of my life…… 3 more days…

Also, just because I am on a coffee fast, these pictures below are during a happy time when coffee was still my best friend. (Don’t worry, I will return to you soon)
