india+toronto+yellowknife+the dentist+CDs.
first off. i'm back from india. it might have been the single best experiance of my life. god blew my brains out all over the country. when i came back i spent a week in toronto, which was probably the single best week ever spent in toronto. no job. no school. nice weather. hipster church. amazing hangouts. and now i'm in yellowknife where i work. work out. bike. read. and talk on the phone.

today was teeth cleaning day! and i just got back from the dentist. i like clean teeth, but i hate the feeling of having my teeth cleaned. the doctor used this vibrating tool on my pearly whites. it felt like he was using
a drummel with 80 grit sandpaper. and for some reason he was grinding the daylights out of my gums and not my teeth. it was awful. and then he used that polishing gizmo that tickles/irritates my gums so much that i don't know whether to laugh or scream.

people always ask me if it hurt when i got my tattoos. i usually just say it was irritating more than anything. but i'd pick the feeling of getting a tattoo over the feeling of getting my teeth cleaned anyday.

on the way home i decided to "treat myself". which means i stopped by the music shop to pick up a CD. i was looking for the almost (the side project of the drummer/singer of underoath). i couldn't find it anywhere so i asked the guy behind the counter if he could help me out. he gracefully walked over to the "pop rock" section (?) and picked it out for me. DOPE! then i saw the sticker that said, "$25". which sucks. because alot of the CDs i want in YK are over-priced. but i figured i've paid that price before for crappier CDs, so why not pay that much for a good one. it turns out that the sticker said "2 for $25" and not just "$25". so i also picked up a feist CD.

i win!

ps. listen to "amazing because it is" all the way through. this song may define my summer for me.
