anxiously waiting.........(still)

My appointment on July 10th, my orthodontist was sending my scan results to the oral surgeon to review and he sent me off with the promise that I would be hearing from someone "soon" (as a Justin Bieber fan anxiously awaiting the new single coming "soon" for several months now, I have had enough of this damned word) Well, its been over a month and nothing. I don't know if that's normal or not, but I'm getting extremely anxious (I've used that word about three times already if you hadn't noticed lol)
My mom called the oral surgeon last week asking if there was any reason it was taking so long, and apparently the person in charge of whatever it is that would allow something to happen was on vacation and would be back....hahaha ...."soon." (-_-)
Anyway, I don't know how long normal people take vacations from work but I feel like it's been long enough. I mean, I was already disappointed that I wouldn't be having surgery over the summer (the ER is closed for elective surgeries during the summer??? Really???? Why?????????? ITS THE BEST TIME FOR SURGERY) Now, as I've heard you have to book fairly far in advance, I wouldn't be surprised if I'm still waiting to have it for several more months which sucks because I really wanted to have at least one year of school where I actually felt confident and good about myself but,...so much for that I guess. As long as I have it for prom and graduation (graduation pictures in January maybe...) I'll be happy enough.
I'm also getting very fed up with eating too, as far as sandwich type things go. I recently had deep fried pickles for the first time and I had to eat them with a fork and knife because I couldn't bite into them. I was in the middle of a restaurant and I looked like a complete weirdo, you should have seen the look the waitress gave me when she came back to the table!
I love sandwiches, but I could definitely do without the whole having to basically push everything in it against my top teeth with my hands - very awkward and unattractive.
I would also appreciate being able to look at pictures of myself and not going "blah" quite as much. I'd love to look a little decent at least. Especially since I'm taking a photography course and might need to be my own model for some shots, hahaha.
Anyway, I don't know how many people really read this but I thought I'd do a little update on things. When I actually finally have surgery I've decided that I'm going to do some vlog type things on YoutTube which I'll definitely link to this!

I hope everyones summer is going much better than mine has been! xx
