Dentistry and Illness

So my recap on the last few days:
Friday: I wake up with no voice
Saturday: Coughing
Sunday: Sniffles
Isn't that a lovely progression?

This week is homecoming week.  Not gonna lie, homecoming stuff sort of depresses me. Where I'm at it's a casual event, not formal. Maybe it's better that way. I'm not really sure, but everywhere else it's formal it seems. So I see pictures everywhere of all these people I can't stand all dressed up in expensive outfits smiling with their dates in huge groups lined up in front of mansions. It just gets to me, you know it?
One of the theme days was sort of a pajama sweat pants day. I don't like those kind of days. Of course I'm the awkward kid in the skinny jeans and black while everyone else is rocking the yoga pants and sport tournament shirts. I just cannot wear sweatpants in public. They make me feel lazy and fat. I wear them all the time at home, but I only wear jeans in public, which I never wear at home. The trend of sweatpants is simply a reflection of today's society: fat and lazy.

Today went by slowly. Not the greatest day. Didn't really feel like being around or talking to anyone. Of course though when I feel like that, people are texting and chatting at me.
Then just recently I went to a dentist appointment. My teeth hurt now. For some reason them brushing my teeth is painful. Especially flossing.
I always feel self-conscious at the dentist. I feel like my teeth are specifically horrible compared to everyone else, that I'm more difficult than everyone else and blah blah blah. Props to dentists and assistants. I also feel like I look like an idiot because I wear sunglasses and close my eyes under the lights. My eyes are sensitive, and my eyes have actually started watering before and the assistants have freaked out, "Oh, why are you crying?!" and I have to stupidly say, "It's the light."
Then I saw a person I know there. I really don't know that many people in the area, but yeah, I see someone I know. I get annoyed when I see people I know when I don't want to be seen. But this happens a lot nonetheless. Also the person didn't even recognize me. I've seen them around a few times now, and I attended a course with them at a time for a good month. And they're a mutual friend...it bothers me when people like that don't remember me. I remember them! But at the same time I don't really want to be...grrr, I'll just stop now. I want to feel like I leave an impression, but sometimes I just want to live life without running into people I know.

Yeah.
