I used to think that my teeth were fine. They're not perfect, but I didn't see the need to fix them. Then I started reading orthodontics. Boy was I wrong. I lost my canine guidance. I'm trying not to tongue thrust even when I don't have the habit in the first place. My anteriors are too proclined. My canines are too yellow. My mammelons are not equal in size.
Have you had people tell you they are not as good as you because you are studying in a university and they didn't? Thing is, if I don't study dentistry, I do not possess any other skills to make a living. I respect the work that you do, but why won't you do the same for yourself? You've worked just as hard to get where you are, so don't sell yourself short.
Just the other day, I was waiting for the lift, when someone comes to wait too. He presses the 'going up' button, even though I've already done that. Buddy, it's been pressed. It's like saying I didn't do a good enough job pressing that button, and that having you press it will make the lift come faster.
How long did it take for you to realize that your horoscope readings in the newspaper were utter rubbish? I took them pretty seriously when I was a kid(why hasn't this happened today?!) Later on I would read them to amuse myself. Here's mine for yesterday:
You have an unusual gift for making a situation seem less dramatic, Aries. Today, you'll witness crises of all kinds. You will be the one who reassures people, and the one who can sum up the situation objectively without panicking or exaggerating. This, coupled with your legendary calm, makes for a great combination!
I'll tell you what happened yesterday. Woke up, did some revision, sent some text messages, went swimming, gossiped and had a good laugh over it, did more revision and slept. Crises of all kinds, pfffft.
