August.

Today is the 31st of July 2018. Tomorrow is 1st of August already. Many auditions, interviews and performances coming. I think my attention span is getting shorter. I need a lot of reminder to do a thing. I need to work harder,

Grateful.

For the past few days, i did 4 fillings for my teeth Klinik Pergigian Kelana Jaya with the letter from Whitesmile. Thanks Whitesmile for that letter and thank you Dr Manjit Kaur for helping me. Altogether i did fillings in 37 occlusal which is the one in front of the wisdom tooth of the lower left side, 47 occlusal which is also in front of the lower right side's wisdom tooth, 46 buccal and occlusal which is the one in front of 47 and 48 occlusal which is the lower right side's wisom tooth. So now i am sure you guys can imagine roughly where's the tooth right? Paying 43 bucks for all the 4 teeth is still somehow cheaper than those private clinic. Thank God. And i just got called by my intership for an interview. Happy. I have to keep moving forward. Yes. It's important to move forward everyday.
