2007/11/23 Thanksgiving Dinner!Horray! I had my first annual home made Thanksgiving Dinner. After 10+ years in the US, my cousins and I finally decided that we should give turkey a try... so starts our journey!!! We brought a 12lb unfrozen turkey, left it outside the whole day till unfrozen. We google Thanksgiving Dinner Recipe and decided to go with Stuffed Roasted Turkey... The stuffing is like a mixed of a bunch stuff - carrots, celery, pepper, onion, tomato, potato... so on.. obviously with ingredients (sort of followed the recipe). Anyway, here's how it look. (it certainly looked better than before). Other stuff did turn out pretty well - pasta, mashed potato.. and that's it.. hehe.. Anyway, we had a lot of fun, and it is from now on a tradition among us.. haha.. Before After Pics for other stuff that happened over the week.. hehe.. (Don't Blame him.. he is a young male dog) Cirques Du Solei - Wintuk (i am not suppose to take pictures, but I took them anyway.. sneaky.. hehe)
The bump I got from walking into a street sign
Rocky Destroyed our apartment
2007/11/12 Wisdom Teeth ExtractionMy insurance company has approved my wisdom teeth extraction months ago, but I didn't find the referral till recently. Anyway, I made an appointment thinking that it would only be an examination, not the actual extraction. I drove there from school (NJ - NY Queens), it took about 1.5 hour with traffic and such. Basically, once I filled out my info and got taken into the examination room, the oral surgeon was like, "are you ready for the extraction?". Obviously, I was like "I thought this is just an examination." Regardless, I made a decision of going with the flow and get them out. Better get it done than hold it forever.
I had my #16 & #17 extracted (left upper and lower wisdom teeth). The surgery took less than 45 min. I didn't feel pain but a lot of pressure. The upper tooth took like 2 minute, but the lower tooth took a while since it was growing slightly diagonal. The oral surgeon had to crank it and use some sort of tooth removal screw gun sort of thing to get it done. At the end, I got couple stitches and now awaits for recovery. I don't feel anything at my upper tooth but my lower tooth is slightly annoying. I had to put depressing sponges in there to hold the bleeding. The doctor also prescriped M357 (vicodin) for pain relief. Apparently these drugs are quite addictive, so I only took two so far.. they did make me sleepy thou.
My left face slightly swollen from the surgery.
Oh. On the way there, driving through Holland Tunnel, I had a mini accident when changing from a cash only lane to a e-z pass lane. Luckily it was a minor tap, so the driver of the car that I tapped didn't really ask for anything. This would be a secret from my parents (they don't ever go online.. ).
On the other hand, there has been a lot thing going on with Rocky. It seem that he has been spoiled by us, so he's not really listening to his owner lately. On Thursday night, he wouldn't go back to his own house when the owner (Dante) came to pick him up. So.. once Rocky went back, we heard a little bit of coaching going on next door. So the next day (Friday), we decided regardless how long Rocky barks, we would just let it go and ignore it (we thought the owner was mad at us and don't want us to take care of Rocky again). It turn out that another neighbor went into Dante's apartment and took Rocky out for a walk. When she returned, she found that she had accidentially locked Dante's house. While standing there not knowing what to do, Rocky sort of just came to our door and cry (dog's crying style.. whinning).. So the lady knocked on our door, and we end up taking in the dog.
We played with Rocky the whole day, and obviously he's quite exhausted.
At the end, we had to leave Rocky at our apartment because everyone had to go home that night. Normally I stay for the weekend, but since I had to get my Wisdom teeth out, I had to leave. Felt bad.
What happen next (from what I heard), Rocky was barking at midnight (I suppose the owner went out - Friday Night) and the cops came and left a note for Dante. With that incident, Dante decided to order a dog collar for Rocky. Basically, everytime ROcky barks, the dog collar would send a shock. Ouch.. sounds slightly unhumane, but according to sale's source, the collar shouldn't do any damage to the dog.
FOr week ahead, Dante would be going back home (Chicago?) for Thanksgiving, so my roommate or I would proabbly take Rocky to our house since we live close by. Hopefully my family would be cool with that, they are not thrill about dogs.
