Unlike those who soaked up the beautiful sun during Spring Break, I was laying down in my bed enjoying blood, soup and Yoplait yogurt for a straight five days because my dentist took out all four of my wisdom teeth. As embarrassing as it is now, I documented my journey on Snapchat AND Twitter. The video of me crying, babbling and looking as drugged as I felt hit social media through my own phone

Before going into surgery, I had heard stories from friends telling me the aftermath would not be pleasant. Already worried and anxious, I went to the doctor’s office, sat in my chair, and all of a sudden, my surroundings went black.

I woke up and found myself in my car, my Dad driving. How did I get there and when did I wake up from surgery? I had absolutely no idea. The video I recorded unconsciously during the drive home shows me in a state of delusion and confusion because I was given laughing gas, oxygen through my nose and intravenous anesthesia.

For most surgeries, the patient is still conscious; in my case, as I told the doctor before the surgery I was worried. So he took the extra measure and put me to sleep. I was talking gibberish and remember being overcome with many emotions. Here is a video showing me fresh out the surgery.

Laying in bed for the next five days was uncomfortable and annoying. I could not eat the foods I desired and felt dizzy quite a lot. However, as much discomfort that came with removing my wisdom teeth, I have videos that are great to go back to and laugh at. And, I do not have to worry about my wisdom teeth in the future.
