Dentist appointment and two announcements!


So as faith will have it my body is beginning to break down on me, right now, during finals.
I am a pretty low-stress type of person. I do not feel stress. BUT! I guess that my body is
stressed. 



One of the signs of stress that my body is giving is that my teeth hurt more than
usual. I have sensitive teeth but during the last week I couldn't even brush my teeth without
feeling some sort of pain. I couldn't even smile! ( my teeth are sensitive to the air).

I don't eat that much candy but I do eat candy. I was afraid that the pain was due to new cavities
or something like that. 



My dentist told me that I only had one cavity and that my pain was due to a hike in the stress
level that I have been experiencing. While this information is fine
and good I really wanted to know how to get rid of the pain. Basically he said that I developed
with sensitive teeth. There wasn't much that he could do about it. All that he was able to do
was to fill my one cavity (which I appreciated). Still, he promised that this pain would go away
once finals were over. He said that I probably unconsciously grind my teeth in my sleep or even
during the day. I believe him! Hopefully by the end of finals my sensitive teeth won't be causing
me so much trouble. 



But as for the announcements!

One announcement is that we are having a WEb Chat here at GSE. 
It will be this Thursday, December 8 from 7:30pm to 9:00pm Please register by clicking on the link

And the other announcement is that we ( the Graduate Assistants) now have access to cameras!
Therefore, look forward to IEDP Professor interviews which I will be posting throughout this
month and the Spring Semester! I'm so excited! Since you can always go online and check their
academic and field credentials as well as the classes that they teach I will try to focus my interviews more on their humane side. This way, readers and IEDP prospective students can get to know the personalities of our IEDP professors ( and other featured professors which I can interview upon request!). Let me know any questions that you may want me to ask the professors! Or if you want any specific professor to be interviewed :)

  1. This is something very rare knowledge you have shared here. A very few of us know that a tooth ache can be caused by stress. Often we don't realize this.
    Good wishes for your finals!

  2. Hello Adilene! First of all, tell me how you are… Is it alright? Stress is one thing that harms many parts of our body. Sometimes we don’t even realize until it’s late. Don’t let stress over power you. Take good rest. It’s very important. Keep it up and I will be waiting for your next post!
