I totally concur with your publish. I've lived right here for almost three years now and also you are so appropriate regarding the deceptive quantities. Fun place to perform factors and party, but boyfriend and spouse are handful of and far amongst. My one friends have advised me stories which have created me believe twice about staying here. When my agreement is up in 17 months, I'm outta right

If you go with the baking soda and lemon program, make
sure your finish up with a regular mild bar soap. Soap will cut the oil in the lemon off
of the enamel. Precisely the same goes for eating lemons;
bar soap is the only mild thing to cut it. Toothpaste will not do it either.
Otherwise the lemon oil left within the tooth will erode the tooth.
There is certainly a tooth soap product about the market that will
work just also, without the soapy flavor. Either one will operate.
