I'm in two minds about what to do next.

Go bravely, Niamh.
I wore braces for 5 years, and retainers for another two years.. I'm quite familiar with dentists and orthodontists.
I'm feeling quite relaxed and happy today:
I'm home from work, I've no classes to teach today.
I'm in my nightie, and listening to my favourite UB40 tunes....ahhhh...so relaxed and calm!!!

Sick and hungry, a little delirious. Slept over at my friend's house last night and watched movies straight through the night. Energy drinks, believe it or not, are not nutritious. I feel like I have scurvy.

happy mood
Stressed out. I should be happy, I got an interview. But mostly I'm just nervous.
Calvin: You can’t just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes: What mood is that?
Calvin: Last-minute panic.
