Well, I've had braces for about a week and four days now, thought I'd give an update, as the title suggests.
They're good. I can chew solid food now, however I can't bite into it, unless I want to feel like someone's attached crocodile clips to my gums, and sent a good few hundred volts into 'em!
Getting food out of them is a completely different matter! It's extremely annoying wondering if there's a seed, bit of skin off of some various fruit in between my braces...*Sigh*
Ah well, it's all for my own good, so that's that.
All in all, a pretty pointless blog post, I just felt like writing it. Apologies.

Ah, Revision...
It's like that cousin that you're forced to see every so often, even though you don't really like him/her at all...
I've just started revising for exams that are coming up soon. I have a Triple Science mock on the 30th of March, general year 10 exams, and some actual triple science modules. Module 1,2 and 3 of every science. May take me a little while, but I'm doing it in bite size chunks. 20 minutes to half an hour on each, then move on to the next subject.
At least I feel like it's helping me now. In previous years, it hasn't really felt like it's helped, but now that I'm looking down at the revision-filled pages, it's jogging my memory. Almost like an old watch has started again....
Although I could talk about revision for many an hour, I feel something else necessary to mention in this here blog post. I am getting braces tomorrow! On the 17th of March, at approximately 14:00, I will be a member of the 'Brace Race', as Richard Gibson kindly said.
I've had a total of seven teeth taken out, four elastic bands put in my mouth (although one of them has fallen out :/) and I'm now ready for the Train Tracks. I'm glad, I'd like to get it done properly now, then have a 'bodged' job later on.

As I await my dinner...
I thought I'd do a blog post. Yes yes, I did one yesterday, but I'm not forcing you to read it! I've had a few people say I blog too much, that's why I say that part.
Anyway, dinner, yes. On Sunday nights, me and my family sit down and eat our dinner. We do this every night, but what makes Sunday night special, is that we watch a fantastic program called 'Lost' on Sundays. I'm sure you've heard of it, it's a massive hit in the US, and it's reasonably big here in the UK as well.
To sum it up, it's about a group of people that land on an Island. These people have to overcome loads of obstacles to get off this island, but when they do, they feel the need to go back. I won't say anymore, and in hindsight, that's a pretty bad summary. Ah well.
I love this program, and highly recommend it. It's well written, it's a great thriller - it gets the blood pumpin' a lot-. If I'm honest, I couldn't complain even if I tried. Saying that 'tis a tad confusin' at times, but all is revealed eventually.
WATCH IT! I'm sure it's been pirated somewhere!

Musical Merriment
Hey guys,
I have been aware that there's been a thorough lack of blogging on my part, and for that, I apologies. (The text has gone into Italics and I don't know how to change it!) However, I am aware that some people dislike my constant blogging. Meh. You don't have to read it!
Anyway, Musical Merriment, yes. Well, I began this week by downloading Mumford & Sons album 'After The Storm'. Personally, I love it. I like the folk-y aspect to it, and the skilled use of Banjo, which, if I understand correctly, is a reasonably hard instrument to play.
A good friend then lent me the new 'Fall Out Boy' album. Again, I am aware (I like that phrase) that a lot of people don't like F.O.B. I do, I don't know why, but I really enjoy their music. Although I do like FOB, this album has not been their best. 'Foile a Deux' hasn't particularly captured my interest, but I shall listen a 'wee bit more', and report back.
I also re-sat my Module One maths exam. I'm reasonably confident that I got at least a B. Or, at least, I hope so. I easily did about 10 hours of revision, including about six pass papers. I feel a lot better about this exam than I did about it the first time 'round.
I've decided to ditch the crappy little tag line. It's just a bit crap to be completely honest.
'Peace out'
