No More Baby Teeth!!!

  This morning I went to the dentist and got the last 2 of my baby tooth taken out. Unbelievable right? I can't believe I am fourteen and they still haven't fallen off yet! I had to take them out soon, because I am probably getting braces during the start of summer. I finally have NO more baby teeth!!!
  One side of my mouth is like completely numb right now, I am starting to get hungry. I hope I can eat soon... The doctor said I have to wait for another 3 hours or something. At least it stopped bleeding.
  So, the Word of The Day is:


a·base/əˈbās/

Verb:
Behave in a way so as to belittle or degrade (someone).
Synonyms:
humiliate - lower - humble - degrade - demean - mortify

 Example sentence: ...the crowds in the square, abasing themselves in front of the gleaming glass statue.
  I am still not very clear on how to use this word. Do you abase someone? Like: I was abasing myself before the great king?
