So I wanted a cellphone holder for my bag but didn't want to spend 20 dollars. The official one is this

I thought about it for quite some time then eventually it hit me. I could use my old phone case. Then I needed velcro. That stopped me for a day. I was going to buy it but I went to call my cousin and he had some. Its the tape kind. I originally wanted to sew it but when I tried the needle broke and I gave up on sewing it so I just used this material glue my mom gave me.

"We'll take good care of you, seven days a week!"





A lot of hate from reading the comments on youtube. I think he's pretty good. But each to their own. Also he got A LOT older and balder from the video...

So a few weeks ago I went to get my teeth cleaned at this place on ocean. It's been more than a year since I saw a dentist. Well that placed told me I had 5 cavities. Two of them wear really big with a possibility of a root canal on one. I was shocked when they said I had 5. Well they said I should fix it asap and make an appointment with them. I waited a few days and talked to my parents on what I should do cause they're paying for it. I would've went to the place on Ocean but the soonest they could see me was the 26 and I wanted to get everything done before I go back to school. I also asked Jen to make an appointment and she did but I had an appointment with Dr Jang. Sorry again Jen!
So, today I went to Dr Jangs. They had to take x-rays again because the other placed charged to send them over to Dr. Jangs. Then when they were doing x-rays their filed showed two Bryan Wongs. I mean seriously how many Bryan Wongs are there in the world?! They're x-rays are pretty cool its digital so he got to zoom in a bit closer to look at my teeth. Which brings me to another thing. If someone could enlighten me. So if they cover you with a lead vest to take x-rays and the person talks out of the room. My head is the part that isn't covered by anything. So like wouldn't harm my head some how? If you cover the body from the rays what about the head? But I digress.
Anyways, When I got to see him I looked at the monitor and it said "BRIAN Q WONG" And as they were getting ready for everything I told them "Umm thats not me." Kinda scared me that if I didn't say anything they would've drilled the wrong teeth. So he told me I had to take X-rays cause the ones on file were 2 years old. And as I left Dr Jang assured me that I would be ok when he said "Don't worry we'll take good care of you" Just like in the commercials!!! Dr. Jang looked at my x-ray and said I have two big cavities(just like what the place on ocean said) He also said there was a possibility of a third one but he would find out once he went to look in my mouth. I had him do a filling one time and I really had a good experience. The shot he gave me I barely felt it and thats all i remember from last time. This time was the same except when he was drilling, I felt a bit of it drilling in to my tooth. It wasn't an excruciating pain but i felt something. I don't remember that from last time. Then after I got it filled and everything one tooth hurt when I pressed it with my tongue. After 12 hours though it feels better.

First time with Dr Jang was a good experience for me. Second time was an alright but I liked the first time. I guess hes cheap too compared to other people. He's a nice guy too. I found out he has 3 daughters. One went to UC Davis, UC Berkeley, and UCLA. Must have some smart daughters. Think he said only 2 of his daughters are in dentistry or something in that sort. So for x-rays it was 25 and for the two fillings it was 150 each. So it was 325. Pretty expensive but compared to the other place on ocean it was cheaper.

So I guess hopefully to avoid this major dentist bills I'll brush like 2 times a day and use mouth wash. FYI I use to oooonnyyy brush at night and floss and mouth wash. I know your suppose to brush 2-3 times a day but I just never did.

Ohh and every time I go to his office I want to get a picture with him but I just get too scared to ask. Maybe next time....
