So I don't know if it's because wisdom tooth is growing or if it's because I'm biting my skin or something, BUT IT HURTS. Oh the pain ... Sigh. It's spread to the left side of my face, and like whenever I open my mouth or bite down, it hurts. >.< And the usually prepared me forgot to bring pain killers. I guess I could go buy some, but I don't know what's good here. I could also go see a doctor, but I have no insurance. And even if I did, I wouldn't know where to go! Blah. This sucks. Majorly.

It would be just my luck to have this happen to me now. Fan-freaking-tastic.

Someone, STOP THE PAIN. Aghhhhhhhhh.

However, to get rid of the pain, I stuck these muscle relaxant or painkiller thingies on my neck for two nights in a row, and now I'm having an allergic reaction to them. !@#$$#@#!@# ... breaking out in hives and swelling and itchiness. Woe, I can't catch a break. So now I am itchy and sometimes the stabbing pain will return, so I itch and I ache. Why? Why me? :( Is it a sign for me to stop using the computer so much? But my life is my computer! How ... sad. BAH. This sucks.

Anyway, I bought The Game by Neil Strauss about his time spent with the different master pickup artists and his eventual becoming of a mPUA. Ok ok, I don't know why I bought it, but when I saw it I was like, COOL! I want to find out what the guys are learning to help them pickup girls when they could never do it before. And I have to admit, it's pretty interesting. If you don't think about how degrading it is to the women they're picking up and just read it for the story and the characters involved, it's pretty good. I enjoyed it thoroughly, and now if I ever run into a guy who's doing magic tricks or asking for advice about which cologne is better or just wearing really ridiculously flashy clothes I'll know that he's either read the book or actually went to one of the many seminars there apparently was for learning how to pickup girls.

Maybe one of these days I'll be able to organize my thoughts better about the book and write a decent entry about it. But for now, I'm still like, whoa, that's pretty awesome. :P

The tendon/ligament (for once! a word I know how to say in Chinese but not in English) in my neck is frickin swollen, and it hurts. Like. A lot. Like, it's not a constant pain, but I get these sharp, shooting pains every two seconds. Sigh. It hurts. :( I don't know how to make it go away, especially considering how I have to sit in front of the computer for at least two more days. Speaking of which, I probably shouldn't be sitting in front of my computer right now, but there's nothing else I can do that doesn't cause the same pain anyway.

I can't draw because I have to bend my neck down since I don't have a desk (although I did attempt to draw some, but the pain kinda distracted me). I can't read because of the same reason. I can't watch tv because the sofa is perpendicular to the TV so I'd have to turn my head to see it. SIGH. I guess I could go to bed, but that means I need to go shower, but I don't want to because that means I have to wash my hair which will probably involve more neck pain. WAAAAAH.

Why is it swollen? I have no idea except that the muscles in my shoulder are super sore as well. AHHHHHHHH. This sucks. SUCKS. I'm not even old yet and I have all these health problems. SIGH.

Yes, this is a self-pitying, whining-filled entry. I think it's about time for another one anyway.
