please jab the darn toothbrush into the gums over and over again and then start brushing on it
no kidding, that is what i think about every.single.morning

i don't know whether it is the way i hold my toothbrush or whatever the reasons are; but i keep jabbing my toothbrush into my lower gum that i don't think there's a spot that i hadn't.

it kills me to tear my own tender gums but i cannot help it! I DON'T KNOW WHY.

i have always had problems with brushing my teeth. when i was primary 4 and in the morning session, i would rather brush the wall to achieve the "tchk tchk tchk" sound to deceive my mom than to really put it in my mouth to start cleaning my mouth.

well, i guess after i grew up i got a little more sensible and decided to really brush it - it is never top on my priority though i keep thinking it is. i spend a proportionately large amount of time brushing my teeth in the morning. like if i have 10 minutes to get ready, i would spend 40% of it on my teeth.

but out of the 4 minutes, 2 minutes is spend on wincing in pain and squeezing the blood from my gums because i cannot help but jab it over and over again and bleed till i feel faint every morning.

so, perhaps i should really just go without brushing my teeth for awhile. or maybe just go for another wisdom tooth extraction which will make it even more legitimate for me to stop brushing altogether.

go away, ulcers.
all the more, go away, TOOTHBRUSHES.
