quo vadis

one of the highlights of my day was watching tv and seeing an advert for a really old period movie called quo vadis. why is this exciting you ask cause its about Nero <3 the lovable madman...okay well...it also had a scene of Rome burning which is what happens in Tacitus' Annals book XV...the one we study !!! i was so excited...sadly Nero isn't as good looking as the picture of his bust in our latin room so i don't think i'll watch it. he was kinda icky looking in the movie...oh well...i think it's generally agreed that caligula takes the cake though...poor nero ...so much to live up to.

anyway on my teeth. most of the swelling seems to have gone down there is a bit of brusing and i'm losing my double chin which is a thumbs up. and a nurse rang yesterday which i thought was really nice and said that it wasnt wierd that i more swollen on one side, again thumbs up.

but what i logged on here to say was that as i was getting the anethesia they were asking me what subjects i like and i said ummm.. english, latin, umm..history and they were like oh! latin! and im like O.O uh-oh. i know enough to know that when people go 'oh latin' they gonna ask you a question about it. thinking it was delightful that they were being so friendly i was also terrified about the question. and rightly so. 'whats a gerund?' O.O i felt my answer was less than decent 'umm..a verbal adjective..i think' ...

so i looked it up and found it was not as horrible an answer as i thought. simply put a gerund is a verbal noun, a gerundive is a verbal adjective. and now i kinda understand them. hopefully

wisdom teeth

i am still alive after getting four of my teeth removed. i like my teeth...i dont like stitches...blood is disgusting, i pity vampires.

so instead of being a normal person and having my whole face swell or none of my face swell it decided to swell on one side and not so much on the other so it looks like i have a permanent jaw breaker lodged in one side of my mouth. and did i mention my double chin ...on one side...i look a fright. lol...

so to keep this a happy post im gonna show you a piece of my artwork cause i cbf loading them on facebook atm.

this turned out really awsome photographed.









needs a few touchups but i like these.









This is one of my favourites. ^^












So is this. glass is awsome cause it washes.









This is on the wall at school(cause it basically can't be taken down and put up again for my exam)...but it looks cooler here









i hate these little books with a passion due to the face i made two identical mirror images of them...it took me hours...hours when i didn't have minutes to spare. and cbf printing them...who knew there was a right side. -.- oh and if you dont notice...there are other pages. five other pages. in each book.

Math test tomorrow

Inspired by wensi's post on her blog which can be found here:

http://wowsosparkly.blogspot.com/

i have decided to tell you all my patchwork quote.
Now this was a difficult decision as i didnt want any bloody soppy quote or a 'meaningful' quote but something interesting. so i turned to one of the few books i have read - no not LOTR - but to the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Controlling the urge to display 'DON'T PANIC' as the quote i began sifting through the entertaining pieces of advice found such as 'On no account should you allow a Vogon to read poetry to you' or 'A towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have' i even refrained from using...

42
but Lo! this i said to myself was a keeper..

'There is an art, it says, or rather, a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.'

i thought it was a good idea i even recall trying something like it when i was younger though my aim wasnt to fly..more just...throw yourself at the ground and dont get hurt..then..watch others and laugh if they do get hurt LOOLL

so yes...honestly i just had an urge to footnote all my quotes...but i wont.
