Jeremiah 17:7-8
Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD,
And whose hope is the LORD.
For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters,
Which spreads out its roots by the river,
And will not fear when heat comes;
But its leaf will be green,
And will not be anxious in the year of drought,
Nor will cease from yielding fruit.

hah...
I now declare myself lack of human wisdom
(ps. cuz i jus removed one of my four wisdom tooth... gonna remove the other one next round)
SO
NOW i need GOD's wisdom... heh..
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a serious note, I went to extract my wisdom tooth at National Dental Centre today. The operation was scheduled at 9.30am. As I heard lots of horror stories of wisdom tooth extraction, I was slightly apprehensive. I was supposed to remove 2 of my bottom wisdom teeth. However, I decided to remove one first so that at least I have my other side for eating and drinking. Hah... If not I dunoe how I would survive.
I went for the local anesthetic which means that I will be fully awake and aware of my surroundings throughout the operation. The dentist injected 3 jabs of the anesthetic and before i knew it half of my mouth, gums, tongue went numb. It felt funny but yet it was a great feeling! Hah.. I couldn't stop smiling and giggling to myself.
Soon, I was wrapped up, including my eyes. So all I could see was just a bright light. It was quite scary cuz it felt like I was on the death bed dying. Before I knew it, the dentist was cutting my gums thought I felt nothing at all. All i knew was that I was singing an old hymm. I can't really remember it now but I was just singing and singing and worshipping God.
I think the most horrifying part was when the dentist started drilling my wisdom teeth in order to break them up into smaller pieces for easier extraction. Though I couldn't see or feel any pain except for the virbation of the drilling, the loud drilling sound was enough to cause me to imagine the bloody mass that was being created. However, I kept my focus on God. Heh.. Only HE can save me now. Again before i know it, the dentist had already taken out my wisdom tooth and was in the sitching up process. Within less than 10 mins, everything was done and I gave a sigh of relief. Heh... Finally, it was all over.

Now, the wound has finally stopped bleeding.
