.brace.face.brittany.

I have braces. Not kidding although I wish I was!! It's true that even after having them on previously for 5 years they have returned. Long story short my jaw grew forward when I got them off the first time, which has caused to a bad bite, which has lead to me noticeably grinding down my two front teeth just by chewing on a daily basis, which was going to lead to eventual surgery but since the grinding has gotten so bad that I'm actually killing my teeth(true story, can actually happen), we had to take immediate action instead of waiting to do anything with it until I was done with school and I got braces on Wednesday with the hopes they will move my top teeth forward, and do it very quickly!! good news I guess is: if this shindig works I hopefully won't be having to get surgery afterall! bad news I now look like this...

okay maybe not quite like that but when you're almost 23 years old, and already struggling with self conscious issues and someone sticks braces on you (again) that is what i see in the mirror!! so anywho, hopefully I'm still recognize able and I'll try to still act my real age even though the 12 year old depiction I'm now portraying will be really hard to ignore.
enjoy smiling everyone! I'm cutting back on it these days so do it enough for the both of us!!
