When you don't want "wisdom"

The title of this post may make you think, "why wouldn't you want wisdom?" Well I'm not talking about any kind of wisdom here, especially not the kind of wisdom that truly makes people wise...

My wisdom teeth are coming out. On a scale of 1-10 this is by far the most excrutiating pain I have felt in my entire life. I have been taking medication for a while now and am waiting until Saturday to, hopefully, go to my mom's and take a visit to the dentist. I know dentists are not the people who take our your teeth, since it is a surgery someone else will have to do it - but I want them out really badly.

You may also be asking yourself, "why hasn't she posted lately?" Let me go ahead and quickly tell you why. I really do feel bad that I haven't been online lately and will be picking it back up again soon, but I have been catching up (sort of) with my Topology class and math research. I have a research paper due on friday and other random things. This upcoming week is actually the last week of classes for me, then there are finals which end of December 9th and if all that wasn't enough, on December 10th I have the Math Subject GRE test to take. All this while planning a wedding.

The wedding stuff really has gone to the side a bit (thank God), but when my mom visited me a few weeks ago for the weekend, that is all she wanted to talk about. This is the gown I want to wear for my wedding. I'll be wearing *shudder* a size 18, but at least I'll look thinner than I did for most of the other gowns.

One of my maids of honor (yes, there's more than 1, there are 2 of them) took pictures of me in the dresses I tried on, but I don't know (a) if she took any pictures of me in this dress and (b) if she still has them and has not deleted them from her camera. I'd be interested in seeing them.

But on brighter more mathematical notes. I like metric spaces (so far) and have become really cool with neighborhoods and open balls. I don't know how long that will last, but so far it's been pretty interesting. I'm getting an incomplete for my Topology class, but at least I'm learning the material really well instead of zipping through it. I want to work on a few more proofs before I complete the test she gave me, but that will all happen in time.

But anyways, those are the things that come to the top of my mind for why I haven't been on here lately. Also because I have become quasi-addicted to My Space. Almost all of my school friends are doing it, it's kind of scary actually, that all of these people put up all this information on the web. But then again, I put up information all the time and do not shield myself from possible injury of doing so. I should be a little more cautious, but at the same time wonder what doing so (being more cautious) would do with how freely I type/speak/chat with others. I am a very open person, as those who have been reading the blog in the past know, and intend to keep it that way.

Away with personal censorship, that is for another day and another time - not here (on this webpage) and not now. ;)
