I was recently informed by my newly-returned-missionary brother that gum is prohibited on the mission. This came as a big blow to me. I do not know what i am going to do. Those that know me well can attest i never go anywhere without a pack of gum. I do not think it is an exaggeration to say that i spend almost every waking hour, besides eating and singing lessons, chewing gum. I have this extreme phobia of bad breath. I would die to be caught with bad breath; i don't know why, but it would be devastatingly embarrassing. In fact, i am embarrassed to even put the connection of myself and bad breath into people's minds. The only solution i can think of is to buy a two year supply of Listerine pocket strips.
